"all the blowing themselves up motherfuckers will realize the minute they die that they were suckers"

--Julian Cope.

Unfortunately we lost two good ones this month (title of this blog post in no way related).
First, the passing of Andrew Weatherall,


then David Roback?



Projects still unfolding:
Kompakt Pop Ambient 20 year redux, Autechre, 12k, Longform Editions, Stephan Mathieu, 24 hour playlist…
On the horizon: Zelienople, Sun Araw, Golden Retriever & Chuck Johnson…
Further investigation: somesurprises’ ‘somesurprises,’ Matthew Halsall’s ‘Oneness,’ Califone’s ‘Echo Mine,’ Close Lobsters’ ‘Post Neo Anti: Arte Povera in the Forest of Symbols.’
