Cospagon's Bitch is from Clone's DUB (Djak-Up-Bitch) Series V/A - Nummer Drie, there's more Autechrean material on it. Nummer Een is yummy IDM, too. These are 20+ year old releases.

This is what Baudrillard writes about in The Gulf War Did Not Take Place - the chasm between what actually happens and what is relayed by the press is a matter of representation and interpretation - the geographical distance from an event becomes the inverse of how much it interests or matters to (most) people. Baudrillard called it a virtual war - a carefully scripted media event (he invokes his own theories of hyperreality and simulacra, but I'll desist).

I've done enough recreational drugs in my lifetime that getting an influenza jab every year, occasional tetanus freshener and now a couple of anti-COVID-19 injections - even if it becomes a yearly thing combined with the influenza shot - are not even a statistical blip on the risk radar in comparison. I've had several orders of magnitude more instances (compared to vaccine injections) where I've ingested, insufflated or smoked (I've never injected anything, and never will) powders, pills, blotters, liquids, plant matter etc. where I have no idea what they really, actually contain - presumably (and experientially) active doses of stimulants, psychedelics and whatnot (I've never had a bad experience, some intense ones, but never bad). All the vaccines I've had vs. all the recreational drugs I've taken is not even a comparison in risk, because vaccines are not from your friendly neighbourhood dealer, whose supply comes from who knows where instead of tightly controlled pharmaco-industrial labs, vats and distribution systems. Think about that for a fraction of a second.

I have to admit that nowadays I prefer digital, but I buy a lot of physical releases just for the support (digital accompaniment of files is preferred, but not mandated).

I'm going to start replying to all other threads in this one, so that my ramblings get the attention they deserve.

77 Strange, Funny, and Magnificent Book Titles You’ve Probably Never Heard Of (LitHub) Not very DIY, but.

Great job once again.

Tati was a genius of understated comedy. You'll have to watch everything he's made several times to catch everything that's going on. Check out The School For Postmen and especially Evening Classes, it's amazing. Mon Oncle is probably my favourite, but all his work is brilliant.

Audacity is my weapon of choice, has been for a long time. I've recorded and/or edited all my sets on it. It's great.

Cut the midrange, drop the bass?

Plenty from the Mancunians.

Chilled IDM album from D-Fried, melodies spiced with jittery-skittery rhythms. Recommended.
-
Breaks, beats, drums, bass, melodies, IDM, variety. Brilliant first compilation from Dyadik, highly recommended.

Cugly. Not to be confused with fugly or bugly. There's one for almost all starting consonants, you can probably guess what nugly is, let's not even touch that.

You are actually watching inane bollocks like that? I'm burning out synapses by just scrolling past them.

Breviceps Macrops, the GTFO frog. They're small, and they hate you so much they squeak.

Yeah and with slash-your-wrists lyrics about joining the 27 club by shooting yourself when you turn 27... not very Eurovision.

WTF Finland.

Iceland was the best of this lot, now they're doing something bizarre to the tune of Albignoni's Adagio. I like Yngwie Malmsteen's version better.
