Monday Roundup #201

Community notes:

  • Like many folks, I've found it weird to navigate the contradictions of participating on twitter for the past while. So with a new consensus forming around Bluesky, I'm going to try posting updates there instead. You can find me as @mfs-toronto.bsky.social. (And remember, of course: for an algorithm-free experience, this aged platform does offer you an RSS feed!)

Video hits:

  • Luka Kuplowsky and The Ryōkan Band's album release show is now preserved as the concert film "An Evening at the Tranzac" available on youtube. Beautuful stuff, go and fill your heart!

In the mix:

  • New ambient mix! New age hits, classic 80's synth sounds (classic 70's too!), a Stargate and a Dragon Gate, some Doctor Who incidental music (not Gate-related!), possibly Ennio Morricone's cheesiest theme, and that one piece of hold music that kept haunting me. Tracks by: Constance Demby, Steve Hillage, Colin Currie Group & Synergy Vocals (playing Steve Reich), Suzanne Ciani, Emerald Web, Jonathan Gibbs, Anthéne & Simon Mccorry, Circa Alto, and DreamQuest.

It happened this week...

  • ...on November 19, 2017 at The Dupe Shop (Arachnidiscs Dual Release Show).
