Completely delighted with these, just arrived from our wonderful label @subjangle. They are absolutely beautiful - couldn’t be happier. Thanks so much Darrin!

The @blurofficial documentary was lovely; a very sweet, funny, somewhat low-key film about getting older, about growing apart and a wry look at the motivations, the joys and angst, of getting back in the boat in middle age. So much that I liked about it….

[mathew mills @XuMaTe]

My debut album, Mirror Skies, is now available to preorder. I’d be delighted if you did. Lofi, home-recorded, dreamy indie rock/pop. I’ve done a very limited run of (20) CDs that’ll set you back a fiver (plus post) https://t.co/hHTwcBrmxH

[Jonathan @jonathas]

I’m not using this account as much as I used to, but I’m over at @assistant_help still talking about indie music, fwiw.

Relatedly, my band have just released a Double CD on subjangle so I guess I’m a rock star now.? You can buy it here if you wish to:

Our LP will be up and available for purchase on Sunday. And I'm scrambling to finish the fanzine at the same time. Exciting times.

Here's a quick glance at a (first draft of a) review which'll go in the zine - on The Church's ace new LP, Eros Zeta & The Perfumed Guitars

Congratulations on publication day @joadrwren!! This novel looks incredibly interesting! I just ordered a copy! Can’t wait to read it.

[Assistant @assistant_help]

Happy to say that we’re on the famous @subjangle wall planner with a double CD release lined up for April! Beyond delighted at working with a label with so many bands we love on it. More news to follow!

[Jonathan @jonathas]

@zimtmaedchen @WallyTBM Aaaah thank you very much!! Pleased to hear it :)

I jumped out of bed early this morning thinking I might be able to watch the Microdisney documentary before the kids woke up! Obviously I managed 5 mins before a toddler appeared and our two hour long Old McDonald Had A Farm dance party began.

@country_mile @burningferns @WallyTBM @nwrbroadcast Really can’t wait to pre-order and buy a vinyl copy. Have just been mooching along, pecking ungratefully at the stream, but you can say nice things on Bandcamp once you’ve coughed up, right? I’ll do that.

[Jonathan @jonathas]

@country_mile @burningferns @WallyTBM @nwrbroadcast I’ve reconsidered I am afraid, as I am jealous that I didn’t make it myself. You can quote me saying “it’s good that they’re so good, I suppose”.
