Heya! Pretty sure the label should've posted CDs to the station by now. Can you give a sniff next time yr in? Danke!
Synth pics are always my highest "liked" on Inst etc! hey - does WFMU have CD copies of my two latest, does yr know? Between the label and me, there's sometimes overlap, and sometimes confusion!
Karen Eng is the photog. She's been snapping me since 2009, I think...

Fab review of Glitch Wizard now up on Psychedelic Scene...

"I once took 7 grams of shrooms about an hour before going to the dentist..."
I have this naive notion that psychedelics might possibly save us from ourselves, but, if the Internet is to be believed, there are a LOT of fucking morons doing their part to pull the cosmic rug out from under our feet!
A new video up today! "Nightcrawler" is from the forthcoming Glitch Wizard album, due July 11. I'm unclear why we're still using the picture of me in a French rowboat to promote this Berliner-than-Berlin chune, but my career isn't your puzzle to solve! www.psychedelicbabymag.com/2025/05/anto...
This isn't new, but my mention in the wiki entry for OMD's Dazzle Ships feels like the weirdly perfect summation of my own eternal cultiness. You know, like, so meta I can't look in a mirror without crossing the road... en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dazzle_...
Everything you've ever wanted to know about Anton! Watch him touch his Casiotone! Hear him talk about "radios." He name drops, he sits on two sofas. How did he come to work with half of XTC? Why the 67 rather than the 47 at Abbey Road? All this or your money back! youtu.be/8lDrZJ_EpTw?...
I kinda forget I'm on Bluesky, oops! I've seemingly remembered again that I am. Here's a picture of Three Minute Tease, the band I was in with Andy Metcalfe and Morris Windsor. This was a 12 Bar gig. First venue I ever played in London, and the one I played more times than any other.
A pattern forming
The integration
Of new dimension
Into the vision
Of 3D human
The inspiration
No separation
The healing dream
Without my glasses, I was sure this was Tim and Neil!
David Richmond, Franklin McCain, Ezell Blair, and Joseph McNeil sat down at the Greensboro Woolworths' WHITES ONLY lunch counter on February 1, 1960 and asked to be served. This photo of four Black men sitting at the counter—not being served, of course—is actually from the 2nd day, and one of the original men is replaced by someone else, but I can't find that name right now.
This Black History Month especially, let's remember that four terrified teenagers once did something little, and it ended up becoming very, very big.
And they’ve grown resistant to antibiotics and pesticides.
Exhausted, but energised at the same time. This is a fight for democracy AND for humanity. Like, basic acknowledgment that someone who ain’t me is still someone. Period. Cos that’s clearly lost on a few people these days.
First anniversary of my dad’s death. He was a curious fellow. Lived and died on his own terms. He was as ready - restless, towards the end - for death as anyone could be and it was a peaceful relief when it finally happened. He was the youngest of ten kids - fucking Catholics! - and the last to go.
There’s a billion of us in here, sorta kinda, all on each other’s side. We’re invisible internet creatures but we’re real and we’re all part of the same good Something.
