Think there were more youtubers and influencers at the Den on Saturday than Bushwackers or ICF. Anyway, new sticker dropped in the toilets at the Cold Blow Lane end

The record that launched a thousand clips of Nile Rodgers telling the same story over and over again on documentaries about disco on BBC4

Arguably the greatest disco record which was the unexpected result of Nile Rodgers doing a very bad impression of Grace Jones

Disney+ has altered its user agreement to clarify that ads will be allowed on all subscription tiers. https://bit.ly/4hhOjBo

This is like when the young punks became the dinosaurs they set out to replace, like when Acid House meant no door policy, hey, it's open to everyone no hang on, not you, no jeans, no trainers

Saw the newly restored and retooled Ken Russell's The Devils last night. As I turned to @blockup.bsky.social and said when this pair popped up, Chemical Brothers have let themselves go

Of interest to at least one of you – I'm looking at you @dustysevens.bsky.social – there's a companion piece to @grantmcphee.bsky.social's excellent Big Gold Dream doc up on Amazon, the self-explanatory The Glasgow School A Postcard Records Oral History. Plays like a DVD extra, one for the heads

"Why Trump's playlist is balearic" Danny Rampling for The Daily Telegraph

Very possibly the most incoherent playlist in music history. Utterly berserk.

Corporate Goth news. They're coming to get you Barbara: goth fashion forecast to grow by more than seven per cent a year licensinginternational.org/news/consume...

Consumers Are Going Goth - Licensing International

By Mark Seavy Once a distinct subculture rooted in Victorian mourning attire and punk music, gothic (or goth) fashion has grown in popularity. In fact,

Got to admire Fr*d De*kin for playing the long game and announcing a gig on the back of his social stuff. Going to go along on the night, wear a shit jumper and do some weird jerky dancing that no normal person would ever do right in front of him, see how he likes it

Just listened to K*mi B*denoch on Today this morning. In related news, just smashed my flat up.

Sadly, didn't get a screen shot, and it didn't reappear after I refreshed it, but got served Starlink ads while reading a story about Alex Gibney's doc on the Guardian this week

Also see you down the front, again, perhaps more truthfully, halfway up the seats in the Megascreen

See you down the front. Or, more correctly, mid-way up the seating in the Megascreen

Before he went to Hollywood to make Point Blank and Deliverance John Boorman worked in BBC Bristol making documentaries. We’re showing six 12 September with @swsilents.bsky.social Book here: www.headfirstbristol.co.uk/whats-on/bri...

The return to physical media is a radical act. A book in your hand or a record on the turntable belong to a world beyond subscriptions, licenses, and corporate permission, and they can be lent, inherited, annotated, repaired, and loved. They remain when the platform fails and the servers die.

Shout out to my cousin's partner Cate for curating this season. Will be dipping in and out

Curated by Catherine Wheatley, the latest BFI season - Claude Chabrol: Elements of Crime - brings together some of Chabrol’s most compelling rogues and disturbing works back onto the big screen across the UK in September and October.

Letterboxd@letterboxd.social · last yr.

Saw this at The Nickel Cinema yesterday, which seemed somewhat apt. Long, but worth it. Will be writing about it somewhere or other, obviously

📼 First look at the trailer for #Videoheaven, Alex Ross Perry’s essay-documentary about the rise and fall of the video store. Narrated by Maya Hawke. Opens at @ifccenter in New York July 2, and Vidiots in LA August 6, with expansion to follow.

Any excuse, although always a fan of @wrongtom.bsky.social's "arguably…" posts

Gary Numan: "This proves I have a Mac lead. I have called it Gary Numan"

Arguably the greatest album cover/title based on a surrealist portrait by René Margritte which was in turn based on a photograph taken by Man Ray of Edward James, poet, patron of the arts, and illegitimate son of King Edward VII

Good to know he's been talking to people for years

Reposting for the Monday lunchtime crowd and for the decent discussion in the comments of the piece!

Another big day for legitimate concerns
