Movement Through Thought on #aNONradio starts in 30 minutes. My show is live every Friday from 06:00 to 07:00 UTC (that's Thursday 10 PM pacific time).

I'm too tired to do anything serious, so I've lined up some slow ambient and dub techno. I'll be featuring tracks by Dimomib, Galcid, Monolake, PFL, and Seal Bient.

Megaphysics and I are playing music down at Ground Kontrol Arcade #pdx for their free play party tonight. Logical Aggression @ GK, 9:00 PM until close, 21 and over, $7 cover.

I'll be on at 9:00 PM, playing a selection of recent (2010s) electro and some '90s Detroit tunes later on. Megaphysics will take the back half, starting at 11:30 PM. I'm looking forward to hearing the new Whities releases he's picked up this month.

I'm selecting tracks right now for tomorrow's show at the arcade. Thinking about Andrew Weatherall. #nowplaying

Mostly ~120 BPM #electro . I needed something low-key and moody. Features tracks by スムー, N-ter, Scape One, Silicon Scally, and Technova.

Movement Through Thought on #aNONradio starts in 30 minutes. The show airs every Friday from 06:00 to 07:00 UTC (that's currently Thurs. 10 PM pacific time).

~120 BPM electro. A few acid-y tracks. I'll be featuring the artists スムー, Adam Jay (from his new album), Microlith, Scape One (also from his new album), and Technova.

The pitch change of a 45 RPM record being played at 33 RPM is -25.92% (according to the Audacity change speed plugin). That seems to be just past -5 semitones.

In case you wanted to, you know, use a DAW (like Renoise) to recreate that effect.

Finished Madeline Ashby's first novel vN yesterday. I picked it up after reading (and enjoying) her book Company Town. There's a lot going on in the book, and I'm not sure it all works, but I liked it well enough. It was a fun read, nerdy, also fairly dark. The prologue was particularly cutting.

It has two sequels - iD, and the forthcoming ReV. I'll read those too, when I find them.

130 BPM #electro , running through some old (and new) favorites. Tracks by Anthony Rother, Boris Divider, Ectomorph, Mandroid, Pamétex, Psylocity, Scape One, Umwelt...

I found this interview with Pamétex while researching show notes today. I thought he was super reclusive, so it surprised me to find anything about him on the web. It's a good interview. #electro

Movement Through Thought on #aNONradio starts in 30 minutes. My show is live every Friday from 06:00 to 07:00 UTC.

Working out some more #electro tonight. I'll be featuring tracks by Ectomorph, Microlith, Psylocity, Scape One, and Umwelt.

I like that previewing albums on Bandcamp is as bad as previewing albums in a record store. (OK, almost as bad).

Bandcamp? You're streaming what sounds like a 128kbps mp3.

Record store? The provided headphones (and often the needle & cartridge) are always worn out.

It's comforting. Familiar.

Just now got around to posting the tracklist for last week's MTT. Here it is: https://djcev.com/2020/02/07/mtt-154-flexible-construct/

and at #aNONradio : https://anonradio.net/mtt-154-flexible-construct/

Fast electro. Includes a couple new tracks by Adam Jay, Aloka, and MANASYt. Plus a few old favorites by Luke Eargoggle and MAS 2008.

Writing is hard.

More Quake this morning. #QuakeChampions QPL Stage 2 Week 9 over at https://twitch.tv/quake . Toxjq and Xron are playing the first game of the day, going into a third map right now.

This is apparently Zoot's last time doing Quake commentary for a while, too. End of an era. I think he started with the LevelupTV crew 8 or 9 years ago...

There's some live Quake on right for anybody interested. #quakechampions EU/CIS Challenger League winner bracket semifinals Spart1e vs Bukster map 1, over at Zoot's twitch channel: https://www.twitch.tv/thisiszoot

Spart1e party.

I finished reading "Agency", Gibson's new book, this morning. Really enjoyed it.

It feels like the middle book of one of his trilogies. There's at least one major question left unanswered in both "The Peripheral" and "Agency".

It's a 400 page book with 109 chapters, which was noticeable. I wonder when he started doing that... "Pattern Recognition", I think.

Movement Through Thought on #aNONradio starts in 30 minutes at its regularly scheduled time of Friday 06:00 UTC. (That's 10 PM Thursday pacific time).

~140 BPM fast #electro tonight. I'll be featuring tracks by Adam Jay, Luke Eargoggle, MANASYt, MAS 2008, and Scape One.
