Im working on a short list of songs to work on for a release before summer for @gloveandghost You can work on tracks for months….Sometimes though, it just won’t work how you envisioned them. And despite your attachments and hard work on them, you gotta move on. That’s where I’m at. Luckily for me there are hard drives full of ideas. That helps letting go. #synthesizergoodness #electronicgoodness #gloveandghost https://www.instagram.com/p/CrwQ2t6PE3E/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

@ebtgofficial have been a big part of my life’s soundtrack. I’ve said it often. From the bachelor pads, clubs in Las Vegas, to the countless road trips I took from #seattle to #vancouver in the late #nineties and early #noughties #traceythorn voice is like a warm soothing blanket…and I run warm!#benwatt electronic stylings never disappoint. Fuse is their new release in over 20 years and I’m glad they are in the charts and getting some well deserved recognition again. Here is to hoping there will be more from this outstanding duo. #everythingbutthegirl #electronicgoodness #vinylrecords #virginmusic #ververecords #goodpop https://www.instagram.com/p/CrouGDfPAQF/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

I didn’t do the Record Store Day thing yesterday. There wasn’t much I was after this time. However, today I found a copy of a vinyl record I’ve wanted since 1996. Pre-Millennium Tension by @trickyofficial was on repeat that year for a long time! A big thank you to the folks @beatstreetrecords for looking for my copy! Turns out someone had hidden the 2 copies in the bins somewhere Cheeky monkeys. #tricky #premillenniumtension #vinylrecords #recordstoreday #islandrecords #electronicgoodness #synthesizergoodness https://www.instagram.com/p/CrZsSqXRg9B/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

We’ve been spoiled all week with sunshine. But not today! Sleeps With The Fishes by Pieter Nooten and Michael Brook seems like the perfect antidote for this wet and cold rainy day. Artwork by the incredible Vaughn Oliver and DX7 patches provided by Brian Eno. #4AD #4adrecords #sleepswiththefishes #pieternooten #michaelbrook #greatmusic #electronicgoodness #synthesizergoodness #brianeno #yamahadx7 https://www.instagram.com/p/CqeELE0PD7r/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Recorded in #Malibu California at #shangrilastudio this covers album by Dave Gahan and Soulsavers is worth a listen. Not much #synthesizers on this one but still a great listen. Covers of Bob Dylan, Neil Young, Mark Lanegan, PJ Harvey, Rowland S. Howard and more. #davegahan #davegahanandsoulsavers #vinylrecords #vinylcollection #columbiarecords #coversalbum #BobDylan #NeilYoung #MarkLanegan #PJHarvey #RowlandSHoward https://www.instagram.com/p/CqbLi-EPAi2/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

I've been going through the @depechemode back catalogue the last couple of days. #BlackCelebration is still my favourite album of all time. It's also the album that broke the ice and solidified my closest friendships with Jack and Vinnie! I think those 2 chaps and #depechemode saved me from years of therapy. The way #martingore and the rest of the band saw the world still makes sense. Cynical but with optism and spirituality as the driving force. This one is for my 2 best friends and in particular Vinnie that left us way too soon! Love you my brothers. #depechemodeforever #greatmusic #vinylcollection #vinylrecords #electronicgoodness #synthesizergoodness https://www.instagram.com/p/CqYoDG_PiCs/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

@depechemode #MementiMori on double clear vinyl. I’ve been playing it repeatedly since Friday! I love it. And to all my friends and acquaintances going on about how they were better before. Or how it doesn’t sound as good as when they had #alanwilder just stop!! I bet there are 1000s of bands that wish they could turn out a record this good years/decades later. Full stop!! #vinylrecords #depechemode #greatmusic #electronicgoodness #martingore #davegahan #synthesizergoodness #jamesford https://www.instagram.com/p/CqRPwg4P6sZ/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

@madnessband The Liberty Of Norton Folgate on vinyl. This is a new pressing on #180gramvinyl and featuring 7 extra tracks. Some reviewers have said this album was their magnum opus. I don’t know if that true, but this double album sounds amazing to me. #greatmusic #madnessband #vinylrecords #unionsquaremusic #bmg #feelgoodmusic https://www.instagram.com/p/Cpn9u0VPAac/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Drove by @ditchrecords this morning on the way to tournament. I had to stop by during the break. This is a super nice shop and the gentlemen in the front was super friendly. The shop reminded me of the #recordstores in #seattle and around #UNLV when I was going there. They had some great music on offer. I didn’t walk out empty handed despite not having too much time. I’ll be back. #vinylrecords #goodmusic #localrecordstore #uvic #recordshop (at Victoria, British Columbia) https://www.instagram.com/p/Cpa6XjWPDuC/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

We had a super great time seeing The Flaming Lips @iloveflaminglips live at the @commodoreballroom I even cut loose and had a couple of bevy’s. This show was postponed for years so it was nice it finally happened. #soldoutshow #flaminglips #livemusic #goodtimes (at Vancouver, British Columbia) https://www.instagram.com/p/CpPOY4YuBDR/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
