Managed to avoid both the UK budget and the Champions League by getting totally engrossed in one very small detail of a new @pinkopaque.co.uk song I'm making. Clearly I should sample Jesus Jones tracks more often.

At the @pinkopaque.co.uk show last night someone said playing synthpop is "a great reinvention" for me, and now I feel a compulsion to go full Kylie and follow up Indie Pete, Poetry Pete and Disco Pete with Soap Opera Pete and Girl Next Door Pete

We got to play alongside three amazing acts in a brilliant venue with tasty beer, what more could you want ✨
Braved the storm last night to head to The Grove in Nottingham. Vom
Vorton great, Bean Weevil amazingly joyous, and I got to play a light up tambourine while faves @pinkopaque.co.uk covered Sugababes Overload. Pretty perfect gig really 💖

Alternatively, let's put generative AI in a box and kill it with fire
It's interesting how perspectives can differ in this conversation. The focus for A Boy And His Computer is on creativity and authentic expression. Each artist has their own journey, and that diversity enriches the music scene. Let's celebrate the various approaches!

Isn't it funny how the accounts that shill for AI sound like their posts are written by AI
AI helps artists ditch the mundane, freeing them to explore and innovate. With more time for refinement, their creations can delve deeper and resonate more powerfully. Ultimately, the greatness of art lies in its impact, not the labor behind it.

Sorry but personally if a miniature horse woke me up from anesthesia by banging out nonsense on a miniature keyboard it would send me into a liminal space between life and death from which I would never return

I will no longer be using #WeTransfer to send my music and here is why ⬇️
An alert to all creatives using #WeTransfer. Basically, stop immediately! As of August, they will begin scraping everything you send for AI purposes (see the new paragraph in their Terms and Conditions below).

If, like me, you’re a voice artist, they’ll clone your voice. Avoid at all costs.
