A sneaky preview of the cover for my halloween release

If you want to hear a preview of Three Knocks, then give latest 'From Bonfire Hill' radio show by @bonfirehill.bsky.social a listen - well worth it for all the tunes TBQH. It's a great show

#SwitchedOn

A square image of an album cover.

The cover has a blue background, and in the centre is a photograph of a close up of an old, cobweb strewn door knocker on a blue wooden door.

The door knocker is fashioned after the head of a lion, golding the circular knocker in its mouth.

Around the edge of the cover is the name of the artist - gribbles - and the three tracks that make up the ep. Three Knocks, Boglin, and Friday Flit.

A small group of text in the bottom right hand corner states that this release is Lincolnshire Voices e.p, number 3

This is what social media is about.

I would have skipped past this clip with nary a second thought if it popped into my YT feed.

But because Alex likes it, and I like Alex, I thought I’d give it a go.

And spent a wonderful three minutes in the company of Nana & Michel.

Lovely.

Since I seem to have inadvertently sent my entire timeline on a Nana-Trip today, have a little listen to one my favourite things from her BBC programme in the 70s. xx

Five to speak to customer services,

Seven to hear those options again

Final work push. Mainly end of week tidying up, todo list grooming and planning what I need to smash next week.

So popped this on.

I often listen to my own stuff. Don't we all? 🙃

I find it helps to keep the ever-present imposter syndrome at bay 😆

Into the afternoon with a bit of @horrordwarf.bsky.social

To be fair, I'm flagging a bit on the work front. Already moved one task to Monday.

Which gives me a bit more headspace to enjoy Gareth's music.

Lovely.

Next up as part of this morning's head down, working music.

A lovely little conceit from @davidowen.bsky.social

Three small (2m30s) but beautifully formed slices of chilled ambience

He's inspired me to have a crack at something like this.

Problem is, I keep lifting my head up to look out the window and listen. 😉😆

It would appear I have a clutch of demos of tunes with words. Er...songs, I think they are called.

Not sure if the world is ready for a "gribbles sings!" ep/lp...😆

Might try them out on a few folk first.

A screenshot from Makid showing a collection of tracks called "With Words ep"

Title are:
Watching the Sunset
Days
Can I Take you There
Ghosts
Waves
Lean Times
Only Days & Memories
