Super curious. What do you make of Lenny Kravitz as an artist? I think he’s incredible. Yet I’m bias cos I got into his debut when it came out in 1989. I was 10. Then became obsessed with every release up to his fifth album. I enjoy his many influences. Yet is he seen as over or underrated?

One of the greatest prog rock tracks out there. I’m happy to debate anyone on this. 😅

Enjoy the jazz fusion of this latest release from Darryl Jennifer - Punkbomba. open.qobuz.com/track/405590...

💿 Sometimes it’s easy to forget an album or miss it the first time round. “Monsters Exist” by Orbital. Unsure why I dismissed it a while back. It’s great. Very much enjoying the grandiose sound of “Vision OnE”. open.qobuz.com/album/xp44rh...

20/06/26, IKLECTIK. @loulayorke.bsky.social synth wizardry in action. My mind was blown how all the tech worked and the sounds it produced. It was an excellent set. Thanks, Loula.

Genesis fans. I recommend The Musical Box. I watched their show at Cadogan Hall. It was magical! They covered the post-Peter Gabriel era from 1976 to 1981. A great reminder how talented a band Genesis are. And the musicians who recreated on authentic instruments. Mesmerising! 🤩

💿 New Muse album today. Used to be obsessed with them. The band I played in back in the day were compared to them. The song 'Hexagons' is the most pretentious, bombastic, and ridiculous track I think they've ever produced. And I can't get enough of it! 🫠 www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZsSn...

@sulkrooms.bsky.social absolutely going for it. Was a phenomenal set at IKLECTIK.

Very much looking forward to this today! Should be epic. 🎹⚡️

Hey @ono-ch1.bsky.social , Was telling some friends about how excellent your nights and sets are. They are interested in the next one. Are there plans for one in London this November?

Think I should’ve just gone with “Corn on the rob”. Or found a better pun. 🫠

Couple of things about Burnham I mentioned a while back. "What would Andy Burnham do?" bsky.app/profile/simo... "We could really do with someone who has audacity, charisma and straight talk." bsky.app/profile/simo...

What would Andy Burnham do? The Two Matts kindly answered my question. (Whiz on to about 17 minutes if you just want to hear that bit) podcasts.apple.com/gb/podcast/t...

@wavepal.app have added a new reminders feature. Great news for folks who need recurring reminders to stay on top of staying in touch with people _and_ now with the flexibility of one off reminders to fill in the gaps when recurring reminders aren't due soon. www.wavepal.app
