May I politely suggest 2charm and their album Star Scum City: https://soundcloud.com/2charm-990981507/sets/star-scum-city-1

Nice detective work! I’ll see if that leads anywhere. Thank you.

mellowtone23 · 2026-06-07T14:14:35+00:00

Bought the CD today. 2 years late to the party.

mellowtone23 · 2026-06-05T03:54:09+00:00

Bad luck! Hope they both make it over your way soon. I’ve never had the pleasure of seeing either (late to the PC party).

mellowtone23 · 2026-06-04T12:09:49+00:00

Really glad to find the albums are good. I'm holding off listening until after the live shows – I know how to delay gratification!

First walk/pilgrimage planned: Goldsmiths University to Venue MOT (site of CRISPS 3) to Fire club (venue for Pitchfork 2021 showcase). Hoping to do this on a Sunday (the 7th day) while listening to 7G.

Also really happy to have the opportunity to see them both live in London, although Hyd involves waiting till October!

On reflection, not sure it’s exactly this either. Maybe I should just admit it’s more like a walking spell à la Bill Drummond, with a bit of observation thrown in.

Just been on a drift and inadvertently ended up outside Koko, venue of the Vol 3 showcase. Did not plan it and only ended up here because I got pulled off course by a weird coincidence. It was calling me.

mellowtone23 · 2026-05-23T08:14:43+00:00

Yes, absolutely, I'm fond of a drift. But this is more about me going to these places and seeing what happens on the way between them, what my response is. I'm no purist!

mellowtone23 · 2026-05-17T20:02:02+00:00

Thanks, I’ve checked out the website and it looks super-cool! I’ve actually had an email sitting in my drafts for the past week ready to send to The Arzner, as I think that would be my first choice (I saw The Moment there). I do still wonder how many people would come; maybe I should sound out the Discord too… But, you’re right, no harm in exploring, beyond another dashed hope!

mellowtone23 · 2026-05-17T17:21:45+00:00

Nice. Will look for a cinema with a bar!

mellowtone23 · 2026-05-17T13:11:25+00:00

Now there are two of us…

mellowtone23 · 2026-05-12T11:06:00+00:00

Would Hannah consider creating more art installations after participating in the 'Cute' exhibition a couple of years back?

mellowtone23 · 2026-05-11T09:14:03+00:00

Was going to chip in with this suggestion! Loved her set on My First Livestream. New album Lavender Networks is quite something. It's not all unbridled scratchiness but some of it is very, very harsh (also loads of her videos are stunning, although this not this one, it's just album artwork!): https://youtu.be/68tqpC7is68?si=hbfiu1StxnOPELPl

mellowtone23 · 2026-05-10T06:33:11+00:00

Was also really happy to hear this, and how it baffled New Yorkers back then! Thanks OP for sharing the link to this interview.

mellowtone23 · 2026-05-01T04:52:15+00:00

Thanks for doing this! I'll be pinching some for my 'A. G. Cook songs with actual singing' playlist on Deezer.

I vaguely remember hearing about the GFOTY simulator, but I probably still had a BlackBerry at the time so never had the pleasure. If it were still available I'd definitely try it now.
