Big howdy from the PNW (a little town on the olympic peninsula, WA state)
Iām Pete. Found the TP show a bit before the covid era, and it was a amazing for me. Still is. Started going deep into krautrock, prog, ambient house etc in my early 20s. Cant stop exploring. Been collecting records for about that long. Growing a community around the balearic side of music, which is a bit foreign in these parts (rural place out in the country). Lots of small parties and listening events. Currently with plans to build a JMOD, SKHORN system at a friends shop.
I run a acupuncture clinic on a small island in the Salish sea. Headed to Italy this summer to study herbs with a mentor. Decided to weave in a trip to Love International. Would love to connect with the TP community. Let me know if the TP sunrise sessions needs a little acupuncture & bodywork ; )

Definitely
I tried to do something a while back for Leeds but I think most people here are South based so it didnt really work
It crossed my mind to ask Loosefm if we could maybe do some sort of TP forum meet up day at the studio in the summer. Have everyone drop in and do a set. @ufstylus ?

Iām sort of still here when email reminds me. My Eugene, OR adventure has been a complete and utter bust for more reasons than I care to enumerate, although there were some adventures musical and otherwise. The upshot is that I return to the Salish Sea in early April - Whidbey Island, which is not a small island as Iām sure @ocean_spray knows, but weāll be more or less neighbours in the great real world. My immediate task is to pack my collection and studio once again. It did not even get fully unpacked and set up after the move down. And then start a cultural center for my peculiar musical vision? Well, who knows? But I am in loose discussion about getting a cannabis consumption lounge/kissa listening bar going once the law on public consumption changes. And, Iām told, it will. Meanwhile, it looks like everything goes into a 13x21 foot storage container in the woods. The question is whether it is possible to set that up as even a rudimentary studio. I canāt decide whether Iām too old for all this or whether itās a good challenge that will keep me youthful.

First post on this lovely forum after a few weeks of lurking, and why not? This place seems both a goldmine of musical information and an oasis of civility in the unhinged wilderness of the internet. Old head here, posting from LA. Iām neither a musician nor a DJāIām a writerābut I stumbled across this forum tangentially via Banbantonton: Iāve been a musical obsessive all my life (everything from 60s garage punk to 80s postpunk to soul and Americana, etc etc) but the past few years itās been increasingly centered on the more cosmic disco/balearic etc etc end of things, of which I simply cannot get enough. Look forward to continuing to bask in the musical knowledge (and sparkling contributions of certain folks whoāve already made my life better: @Apiento @Joe etc) and certainly to offer what I can. Cheers all

I may be a lurker by temperament (shy-ish . . . writers, man, you know the type) but this place seems like itāll draw me out a bit. Itās great.
