Last week's most listened as per last.fm. @rutherfordmatt.bsky.social I've listened and liked the new Bill Callahan and Sleaford Mods albums, but my favourite from your list is Searows. I'll dive deeper into that this week.

The above is my war-cost counter. Rising roughly a billion dollars a day, thousands every second.
This is where our tax dollars go. Instead of healthcare, housing, infrastructure, education.
Current cost of the war, March 8, 2026:
March 8, 2026 - Tehran at sunrise today. But the sun is hidden behind a sky filled with smoke. After a night of intensive strikes on oil facilities, thick black clouds now hang over the city, turning morning into something that feels like night.
It's extremely clear that the US doesn't really have an objective here except to inflict maximum pain, and attacking water supply is going to end catastrophically for the entire region. It's not just a war crime, it's approaching a crime against humanity.
That segment from 30-35 mins or so... <3
Rolling Stone is publishing pro-war advertorials by an Israeli government agent now:
Full performance of Raphael Roginski playing his album live.

Unfortunately, his hopes are also crushed as Argentina has been subsumed, Venezuela annexed, and Chiapas (more like Jalisco) is burning.
A plague on Donaldβs house!
I know he turned out to be a paedo in the end but Hakim Beyβs Jihad Revisited has some good takes on the USA/Islamism thing that has been going on since basically all our lives:
Gβwan lad!
Early 2000s deep house is the best #latenitenoir #deephouse www.youtube.com/watch?v=iu-C...

I revived my ambient mix series Ghost World, after itβs previous home Radio Zero shuttered. Itβs on YT but Iβm not sure itβs the best place. Where do you guys listen to long form ambient mixes? Iβll also pitch it to a few radio stations if anyone has anything in mind. www.youtube.com/watch?v=INy_...
Oh God no, hope you guys stay safe :(
I found where time went:
"Social media platforms have been stealing our time using a bizarre trick: theyβve been speeding up our sense of time β effectively shortening our lives β so we think we had less than we did, and donβt notice some of it was pilfered."

Hah! Thanks for this one! I didn't know Shane was from Ahleuchatistas, loved a few of their albums in the past, and haven't heard of them since forever. Great premise, playing Autechre songs on acoustic guitar!
15th??? I only remember 2...
Life after AI/nuclear fallout/global warming/any other apocalypse is some form of Station Eleven, concurs Hen Ogledd. Simply amazing costumes & art direction + of course music.

uhh i take it back some people are wrong but one person is very right re:friends&. very apt, better than I could come up with.
I sense youth, a white Western person trying to be edgy and cramming a mixed bag of not exactly bad ideas on top of each other ad nauseam. :(
The people are right!

RIP to Γliane Radigue (1932-2026)
thank you for taking my ears to places beyond...
places of suspended time...
a huge influence.
RIP Elaine Radigue. I am relatively new to her workβ¦I started listening to a lot of this stuff when I was working the graveyard shift for UVA library in 2020. Only recently did I get into her work inspired by Tibetan Buddhism. Thank you for the music. Hope this catalog keeps unfolding for me. β€οΈβπ₯
oh noo
I've posted this as a comment:
Very insightful essay by Om Malik, tech writer (and former tech bro?) on the topic of the network & algorithm. Telling us things we all know and feel and hate, but articulated very well here. This has inspired me to think and research about the end of this system.
