Of all the end of year love for Justin’s ‘Tremolo Diaries’ I am particularly delighted and grateful to have this recognition from Alexis and @theguardian.com

And on a personal note, gratifying also to see Kate’s book included. Which means ❤️ for our last Nine Eight book and our first New Modern
The @theguardian.com Music Books of the Year. Huge congratulations to Justin Currie. “Perceptive, funny, winningly cantankerous”

Another excellent evening at @rnrbook-club.bsky.social featuring two films of A Certain Ratio in NYC in 1980, sounding and looking so great. @davehaslam.bsky.social led the fascinating discussion with Merrill Aldighieri, who shot the show at Hurrah, and with @acertainratio.bsky.social themselves

Talking to Cory Doctorow about #Enshittification is like overclocking your brain. Please enjoy our latest edition but you might want to listen on 0.75 speed.
“Enshittification” is the word of the moment. It’s the reason Google is all ads and Amazon serves you crappy overpriced products. Cory Doctorow, who coined the term, joins @nndroid.bsky.social and @rafaelbehr.bsky.social to discuss how we can combat it ➡️ linktr.ee/ohgodwhatnowpod
