My review of The Midnight gig in Helsinki on 17 September 2025:

When The Midnight starts a little after eight, I look around for Tim McEwan, but he's nowhere to be seen on stage. A quick online search and a Reddit thread suggest that Tim isn't on tour with the band. What a shame. Instead, the live band group is completely different from 2019, when I last saw The Midnight at Tavastia Club. Back then, Tim played electric drums, and there was a guitarist, saxophonist and a singer in addition to the vocalist Tyler Lyle. Now there is a drummer (yes, real drums), a lead guitarist, a saxophonist-keyboardist, and another guitarist. In addition, Tyler is of course tweaking the synthesizer machine of his own in between.

I have to say that these real drums don't create the right atmosphere. I like the electronic softness of The Midnight and synthwave. The rough drums make Midnight sound like a cheap rock band when they play live. The band also seems to be doing weird, different versions of their songs live these days. The only song I really enjoy, and which gives me chills, is Shadows. The audience sings along nicely to some of the songs, but for example the "singing" parts during Gloria fail out miserably when it takes too long before the final vocal part without instruments, where the audience doesn't understand or dare to sing along anymore. At Tavastia, the audience sang so loudly that it was great to listen to. Now the drums and instruments in general are way too loud so that you can't even hear the audience singing before it stops completely.

Overall, the gig is a bit of a disappointment, 3/5, when their debut gig in Finland in 2019 was a solid 5/5. Well, at least I went. I probably won't go to another city to see this band a third time, even though they are my all-time favorite.

Hey everyone! Last week I was doxxed and fired from my volunteer Community Radio DJ gig for shitposting about you-know-who on FB.

My great radio show, The Aetherium, now into its second year, continues to be broadcast live every Thursday morning 6-8 Mountain Time right here: Mixcloud.com/live/JustSomeClown

Later each Thursday or Friday, I’ll upload each episode here: Mixcloud.com/JustSomeClown

It’s a two-hour show intended to help you wake up and get your morning off to a good start.

I play instrumental electronic and electronic-tinged music including ambient, neo-classical, cinematic, jazz/jazzy, classic electronica, modern genres such as dub, world bass, liquid DnB and more.

I only play tracks I own, because I support artists. No streaming.

This week’s exciting one-year-anniversary episode includes another great track from @etherdiver and a special 45-minute World Bass mix starting at 7 am.

I accept tips on the broadcast, and any proceeds will go to the cost for the show and music, split with my favorite local orgs like Boise Mutual Aid and our local legal collective.

It’s my favorite way to wake up on Thursdays, and I hope you’ll agree!

I feel like everybody who has a turntable probably has a copy of Mike Oldfield "Tubular Bells". But is yours designed for people with four ears? SQ quadrophonic format

Hi there!

It's Bandcamp Friday, which means any and all purchases you make there will go to the artists! Spotify can't fucking do that, huh?

Anyway I've got not one but two projects on Bandcamp that are worth your listen

One is my own soundtrack and ambient music found at https://incrediblealibi.bandcamp.com/ where my music can be groovy or spacey or just thematic music you wanna listen / meditate / vacuum / smoke an ounce to. My favorites are "Justice Served" and "Home in Body"

The other, believe it or not, is Emma Accelerator, that industrial/electronic band featuring me, and RubixCubix from TransPanic. Our EP "Collider" is out and it is excellent. I like "Blocklist". Rubix likes "Moment Mori". Listen here: https://emmaaccelerator.bandcamp.com/

I'd like to make more music and eventually, start touring again! Maybe even get a studio! Please enjoy the music and thank you for your ears and support! #BandcampFriday #Bandcamp #FairMusicFriday #Music #bands #ambient #soundtrack #Industrial #electronic #groove #Portland #portlandOregon #Inide #Independent #independentmusic #DIY #songwriter #SingerSongwriter #Collider

And it has this nice booklet inside published by Bell Labs, with Max V Matthews as technical consultant

#computer #music #history #digital #IBM #electronic #book

I have a large collection of #electronic and #computer #music #vinyl #records. I had a radio show on FM on the subject for about a decade. So it is always exciting to find something I don't have, especially early stuff. Found this 10" boxed "Music from Mathematics" from 1960, bell labs. Much more rare than 1962 Decca 12". Never seen it before. Found in a local shop, of all places, hiding inside a vinyl carry case.
