Been a busy couple of weeks. My wife had a stroke, and is in rehab recovering. She's doing well, though frustrated with how her speech and her right side has been affected. Hoping to see her come home soon. I've been rearranging the house to accommodate her using a walker.

They told me not to release a retro inspired synth electro album about love, the universe and everything. They told me I absolutely mustn't reference peculiar British sci-fi or advanced physics concepts and definitely not try to sell the album on bandcamp. I ignored them. Wanna hear it?

It feels like we should have the opposite of muted words... maybe boosted words? I would boost "bandcamp", "music" "synthpop" etc. This way I might find people looking for under the radar music to support. Because people love you support independent music and they just aren't seeing the posts!

Well... over 2 years ago I released an album. That album includes songs about genocide, oppression, hate, war, civilian victims, the promise of peace. And the idea that you cant sit on the fence. Lyrics below...

I only need 38 more followers on bandcamp to have 800! So if you like electropop, electronica and alternative synthpop then I have something to share with you... Come and give me a follow if you like 👍 Also I really like round numbers and 800 is quite round 😀 #musicsky

I've had such a busy couple of days, sorting out my studio, trying to maximise efficiency of the space I have, along with the day job. I hope it is all worth it and that I can bring you one of the most beautiful albums ever recorded!

If you would like to support my music today, perhaps I've popped in your feed and caused some intrigue, perhaps you've always been meaning to get one of my albums... then please do use this code "kiffifty" in checkout for 50% off. Thank you for taking the time to listen. I really appreciate it.

It is #BandcampFriday today. I often wonder what is should post to encourage people to take a chance on my music. Should I focus on the feeling? The accolades? The rawness? The Melodies? The Lyrics? Or should I just send huge thanks to everyone who supports my music? I think I will...
