As I wrote in the introduction to @thequietus.com Albums of the Year 2024, the cultural and economic headwinds are currently severe, and deteriorating. Yet there's still so much joy to be heard out there, and it's represented in this list of 100 records (1/3)

Iβm going to make this Harry. Should there be cheese in the custard too?

From Mon - Thurs next week on BBC6, Hannah Peel and myself present Instrumental, four shows about eight instruments which have shaped modern music. From the Theremin to the 808. Plus chat from Brian Eno, Mad Professor, Holly Herndon, Roger Linn, Richie Hawtin, and more

Harry Sword still being on the other place - and refusing to leave - was one of the few things that kept me there. This is a momentous moment in the history of social media:
