Has anyone played Red Dead Online? I know you can co-op on missions with friends, but is it a point to kill other online players? I would really like more time in that world, but I'd like to play alone, and if I get sniped or killed by some 14 year old all the time, I won't bother.

Rewatching The Kingdom/Riget. I love it, and hope the last season is worth the 25(!) year wait.
Also Tokyo Vice. I'll give it 7.0 on the pitchfork scale. Nothing groundbreaking, but touches on a lot of the things i find fascinating about Japan.

New Ben Frost album out. Dark Ambient with some field recording made for the film Broken Spectre, about the destruction of the Amazon rainforest.

I think it's quite catchy. I don't appreciate all the tracks that much, but it kinda flows resistanceless into my ears. Happy friday tunes.

Sean has moved to a village in nowhere, Norway. Amazing.

EDIT: My Bandcamp-links were all messed up.
Mikrohm is a mexican artist I discovered through Pitchforks recent article about Latin Ambient. She makes great music with a nod to old ambient techno like GAS, and early Warp (Black dog, B12). Check it out!

Nono. Russell Haswell. Sunn was at a festival.
One of the Haswell concerts I was buying a beer at the moment he started. The girl at the bar (employed because of her looks, not the interest for the concerts at the venue), stopped pouring and looked at the stage in pure terror. After ten seconds of "well, this is not going to stop" she shook her head, got her earplugs, and continued to work.

Still annoyed that I missed Suede in 97, Mercury Rev in 99, and Plaid in 2000(?), all playing in the town I live in.
Artists/bands I'd really like to see live: BOC, Plaid(!) and REM. I Guess Plaid is the only realistic happening.

What tracks and why? (Have we done this already?)
Andy Stott-Up The Box (Luxury Problems). The way this turns into an almost generic dnb-track is just terrible. It adds nothing to an otherwise great album.
Aphex Twin-Produk 29 [101] (Syro). Track 3 after the brilliant start with Minipops and XMAS_EVET. It's just so slow and lazy with those annoying vocal samples. More like a b-side on a single.
Huerco S-Plonk IX (Plonk). The album is such a great follow up and evolution of the vibes on Colonial Patterns, and For Those... And then it's this track sounding like some random stoner rapping over sub-par beats for seven fucking minutes.
Massive Attack-Light my fire (Live) (Protection). It made a 10/10 album a 9/10 because of this shit. Why include a random live track to a studio album? Luckily it's the last track.

It's decent IMO. Nice cinematic vibes. Blade Runner. Kuedo. But I wish he could build a track around fewer ideas, and just trust the atmospheres he builds up instead of the constant shifting and cutting in his tracks.

@Johnny Hawk Will the old Rephlex releases be available on Bandcamp or streaming in the future?
-
I haven't listened much to his Daphni output which is mostly house-oriented I think? Caribou is more idietronica/electronic psychedelig pop. Swim and Andorra are my favorites, and highly recommended.

I think Barbican as a venue was great. I saw them do a set without lights in 2010 in a more traditional music venue. The venue had the bars open, so you didn't get the same pitch black experience, and with a "sloped" (?) floor and a lot of drunk people bumping around in almost darkness, it felt like a completely different setting. At the Barbican everything was pitch black, and the only thing I saw from my position was some ghostly distant spherical forms bobbing around behind the screens on stage. A dreamy and strange experience and like others, I had noe idea how long they had played. A fun thing; in the middle(?) of the set, a floating light made it's way to me. It was one of the Barbican staff who asked a guy who was lying down right in front of me, to find his seat. I had no idea.
Also the description of ZF first set sounded like the description of the last.

I don’t say he deserves it more than others. But it will be the perfect finale for a great player. And it will be great if a non-european country could win it for the first time in 20 years.
