Bandcamp Friday continues until 8am tomorrow morning… Plenty of time for you to start or, indeed, continue, to fill your proverbial boots in the CBQ store…
Sadly there're no discounts in my store for #BandcampFriday
Why not Dave?
Well, because my releases are all already FREE TO STREAM/NAME YOUR PRICE TO DOWNLOAD (AND most downloads come with loadsa bonus material)
Can I go any lower than zero? No
Fill your boots!

If you were to buy a 10 track album via Bandcamp for £13. Post fees, for the artist, that's the equivalent of streaming all 10 tracks, on Spotify, every day, for a year
But Spotify would pay the artist £0, as 365 streams per track doesn't reach their threshold of 1,000
So, you know, go to Bandcamp

#NP Minnesota’s own Halloween, Alaska. Got into them thanks to the presence of The Bad Plus drummer, Dave King. This is not jazz though. It’s superb atmospheric music more in the vein of The Blue Nile…

Quite a classical/jazz heavy one - I esp liked Emily Mayer & Orbital Dance – both quite jolly
Was the Richard Durand meant to skip? If so it's annoying
of the others I liked:
Mud – loved them back in the day
Propaganda
Cold Blue
Brahms
Joseph Kamaru
Citrine
CBQ Having fun with Lust for Life

OK turns out, I had 10/100, not 5. Read through all 100 critiques and rejected 63 based on those. Listened to 27 in an A&R guy stylee. Only 10 made the cut. The rest just weren't very good, and, in some cases, awful but, of course, only IMHO. I'm always open to new music but I need to like it LOL...

“So you’re a musician? Are you on Spotify?”
What’s the worst question someone can ask after you tell them your profession? For linguists, it’s definitely “how many languages do you speak?”, but I’m curious what else is happening to the rest of y’all out there?!

“So you’re a musician? Are you on Spotify?”
I have, quite literally, hundreds and hundreds of 2025 studio LPs but only 5 of these and have only heard of a few more on this list. Just goes to show how much great new music is being released these days. Need to look (or listen) into these further…
Hark! The Quietus Albums of 2025 chart is here! Prepare to be astounded, thrilled and (potentially) perplexed. tQ subscribers can also dive into selections from all 100 albums in our bumper 9-hour playlist. #tQCharts
