This new Just Mustard album is fast becoming my autumnal soundtrack. Haunting music, perfectly suited to these dark, eerie evenings. I love it when an album takes hold of something, that you can always associate it to. #MusicSky

Such a lovely drive back up home from Manchester this morning. Not a cloud in the sky, singing along to these albums, and I’ll never tire of that first site of the fells, as you approach Kendal. Absolutely glorious 🤗 Amazing night at mbv but happy to be home in beautiful Cumbria with my slippers on👴🏼

First time I’ve seen My Bloody Valentine live since 2008, and wow! absolutely amazing. An almost spiritual experience, at times. My heaven 🤗 #MusicSky

4. Tame Impala - Inner Speaker

Last one before I head into the office. Lord Huron - Lonesome Dreams. A beautiful and haunting record. A strong contender for my final #5DebutAlbums1014 spot. #MusicSky

Expecting to see On Sunset Lake by, Cumbrian chancers and Byrds plagiarists, Kontiki Suite, sail into the #5DebutAlbums1014 top 3 👀😂 I genuinely don’t listen to my own music usually but I’ve played this a few times recently. Enough time has passed that I can finally listen to it with some detachment

It’s ok, folks. Panic’s over. After over 50 attempts (and that’s just in the last 7 days) to beat the bots to a ticket on Twickets for My Bloody Valentine in Manchester, I finally got one! 🎉 Thank fuck for that. Had all but given up hope 😰

Only just had my first look at #5DebutAlbums1014. Haven’t double checked that they’re definitely all official debuts but, off the top of my head, they look to be ok. 3 albums are absolutely nailed on but 4 or 5 potentials to fit into my last 2 spots 🤔 Will enjoy listening to these today #MusicSky

The Better Oblivion Community Center album hardly left my orbit for the first 3 years after release, but I hadn’t listened to it in a while now. Wow! Almost forgot how amazing it is. Would love PB and CO to go again with a follow up album🤞🏼 #MusicSky

Oh my! ☺️ I had no idea that Skullcrusher (aka Helen Ballentine) even had a new album due, until last week, so what a lovely surprise this has been. “And Your Song is Like a Circle” is sonically breathtaking. Sub bass and haunting atmospherics to leave you feeling all warm and fuzzy 🤗 Bliss #MusicSky

Obsessed with Just Mustard - We Were Just Here edition 😅

Ooft, ya bastard! 👊🏼 Streamed the new Just Mustard album all day yesterday through the AirPods at work, but nothing could prepare me for hearing this on wax through the Linn and Bowers cranked up to 11. Talk about moving some air! 🔊 Fuck yeah 🎸 🔥 That title track especially 🤯🤤 Pure filth #MusicSky

Just finished season 3 of Foundation. Wow! What a finale! 😱 Top drawer, epic sci-fi, on the small screen. Love it 🙌🏼

Inspired by @rickymca.bsky.social choosing Beach Fossils for #ArtistFaveLP, I couldn’t resist giving Somersault & Bunny a spin. Bunny was my AOTY 2023 and has far exceeded that, since. An all-time favourite now. Not a weak song on it, hook after hook, and the production is sublime 👌🏼🤗 #MusicSky

…and can’t forget Another One Making Clouds by Everything Else, when on a 2025 shoegaze vinyl run 🤗 #MusicSky
