Interesting topic for a podcast. Last night I’ve played the episode with Buschawcka, since I have respect for the years of work he’s put in the scene. Didn’t find anything revelatory in there, but he was honest and told his life story with the lows and the highs. Going to play this one as well.

Finished off the MF Doom series whilst taking the hound out earlier. Its done well and some really interesting tales of his later life.

A blast from the past, 2015 specifically. Francois K goes deep on the evolution of the equipment he’s been using since the beginning of his career.

On the Roald Dahl podcast at the moment. Fascinating (if problematic) life.

I had a listen to this having been an avid Dahl reader as a kid. Great yarn. Interesting all the handwringing and moralising about ‘can we still read Dahl to our kids even though he was anti-semitic and grumpy at times’. Pretty good dissection of the issues around seperating art from artist and all that. I was pleased that their conclusion was largely ‘it’s up the individual’, given that I never want to be told how to think or act about anything. Cancel culture has never felt quite right to me. Act how you like but when/how/why did people start insisting that others behave identically to them.

I also wasn’t aware that publishers have been revising and sanitising books to the extent that they have, for instance the words black and white both removed from Dahl’s catalogue without exception. Sounds bananas to me, but commercial imperatives no doubt, keep the units selling at all costs, Makes sense from a capitalist point of view, art be damned.

Had a nice chat to him once at a wedding, he was step father to the bride who I knew, didn’t realise who he was until after a few moments racking my brain to think where I knew his voice from. Seemed nice. 8/10 Giant Peaches.

Really interesting for anyone into TG / Psychic TV / TOPY / london experimental/industrial counterculture history. Loads of funny little stories, sounds like such a wild crew.

Yup that was a good one. From memory there was an amusing ecstasy incident in Italy.

This looks like it should be good:

"Me and Andy Weatherall used to go out on record-hyping missions for them,” recalls Terry Farley, part of the acid house crew Boy’s Own, who later got their own imprint on London. “I remember buying Bananarama singles. But that wasn’t unique to London, every record company was involved in it.”
