I just started a new musical composition. I was watching some YouTube videos on music theory and came across the dominant seventh chord. I tried out some chord progressions with that chord on my keyboard and thought they sounded cool, so I incorporated them into a new song. This is just a seed so far, and I don't have much other than the intro.

VARIOUS ARTISTS
Cut Me Deep (A Story Of Indie Pop 1985-1989)
2024 UK 4xCD Box Set
THIS was something I just couldn’t pass up.
There were just too many amazing artists and too many great songs to not buy it.
Each CD has over 70 mins. of music on it, and it’s the kind of thing where you can just pick ANY of the four, let it play from the beginning, and be completely happy.
It really is an embarrassment of #80s indie pop riches.
I’ll let you read the tracklist on your own to see what I’m talking about.
This might be my favorite thing I’ve bought all year.
Which is wild, because it’s CDs!

Another delightful batch of Other People's Music is here for your listening joy! This week goes retro - classic emo, throwback PS2-era drum and bass, Nu-Metal reborn, '80s alt rock revival, and the kind of noisy oddball alternative the '90s made famous!

MERCURY REV
Deserter's Songs
2018 U.S. reissue
A perfect album for quiet, chilly Monday afternoon.
An absolute musical masterpiece and one of the finest albums of the #90s .
It’s still the only Mercury Rev album I need. Whenever I hear ANYTHING else by them playing, my immediate thought is “Why isn’t Deserter’s Songs on?”.
When I first bought this on CD in ‘98, it was the first album I had become completely immersed in and obsessed with since Radiohead’s OK COMPUTER, which came out in May of 1997.
For the following 16 months, most everything else I heard came of banal and underwhelming.
Until Deserter’s Songs arrived in September of ‘98.
Just a beautiful, inspirational and timeless sounding record made for a day like I’m having today.

Time for a new #introductions
I am ostensibly human and can prove it cryptographically.
I like Art, all art, and most technologies. I hack mostly Perl, Bash, and Python but have spent the most of my time building websites with HTML, CSS, and JavaScript (ever since Flash/ActionScript died). I've been working with AI since long before LLMs were a thing, mostly for creative endeavors. I survived the flame wars and will no longer tolerate that kind of behavior. I am not a "Real Programmer" and neither is anyone else.
I play guitar, mandolin, some piano & drums, and I'm picking up ukulele a little. I crochet manageably and knit poorly. I can still do a fair number of my old magic tricks, but nobody really wants to see that kinda stuff anymore. I occasionally draw, collage, and paint as well as repair most household objects.
I have art and writing on my website(s), and if you can find them all hopefully you enjoy some of it, because I am not a "Content Creator" and I'm not interested in becoming an "Influencer," I just want to make stuff and experience life and share it with the world at my discretion.
I'm married with 2 kids, but usually I keep them out of my online interactions for their privacy.
Here's some hashtags I follow:
#art #history #retro #music #pocketmusic #gameboy #android #chiptunes #bots #ML #AI #guitar #mandolin #busking #streetphotography #streetart #stickerart #magic #webdesign #webdevelopment #uspolitics #dsa #zen #scifi #php #bash #python #javascript #node #automation #discordia #education

Joined Mastodon a couple of weeks ago but just moved servers, so here is my #introductions post (again)!
I am a #music lover, a #rambler, a #gig and #festival goer, a #scifi #geek, a #gamer and a #beer drinker from #Derby #UK.
I'll be mainly posting random thoughts about #nerd stuff, #TV, #movies, #games, #retro or whatever pops into my head.
Recently took part in #Inktober, didn't draw a Mastodon but I did do a baby Armadillo.

Just did a new mix/master for Night Rider.
It sounds fuller and deeper now, has better atmosphere, and still keeps the mixed 7/4 and 6/4 time signatures that make the song unique.
If you like electronic tracks that are a little off the beaten path, here it is:

This Is Reggae Music
1974 Canada pressing
A great compilation that features a murderer’s row of #reggae legends.
All the GOATS are here; Jimmy Cliff, The Wailers, The Maytals, The Heptones, and more.
Sometimes, you just need a good mix of slayers after a long day.

VARIOUS ARTISTS
First Edition
1982 Canada 10” Compilation
Great little mix of stuff for a chilly Saturday morning, featuring artists that appeared on the EG label.
There’s a few different versions of this comp that came out, depending on the market in which it was being sold.
The U.S. version has a completely different track list and was a traditional 12” record. THAT version had a King Crimson track on it that’s absent on this 10” Canadian version, as well as a few other differences.
It’s a killer comp regardless of which one you have. This Canadian one has Adam And The Ants, Robert Fripp, Brian Eno, Jon Hassell, Longe Lizards, and The League Of Gentlemen to name just a few.
One of my favorite compilations ever.
