@standardgrey Man, I don’t log into this account for a year and I miss a whole thing about 90s bands. Anyway, I’m going to vote for Th’ Faith Healers. But Tortoise, Unwound, Stereolab and Broadcast are all in the top ten.

It’s March … which means that our book ‘Berlin Typography’ (from @PrestelVerlag) is out in just a few weeks.

@iknowthewords Is this offer still available?

[Berlin Typography @Berlin_Type]

Here at Berlin Type HQ we are preparing for the Wurst-Käse scenario.

@MlleKitty @voltapress Sorry for the delay, I only check this account once a month. But you should definitely pick up the Descenders print from @voltapress. It’s awesome. Order now while the UK is still part of the EU.

@vinylscrobbler What, no Berlin gig?

[Herr Doktor Simon @nondescripto]

@iknowthewords You missed Gong of Four.

[Herr Doktor Simon @nondescripto]

@iknowthewords Gong is never bad…

[Herr Doktor Simon @nondescripto]

@vinylscrobbler @blaim That wasn’t me. I would never use an apostrophe in that context.

[Herr Doktor Simon @nondescripto]

@vinylscrobbler @Aagoo @mantelrevlab @stephanmathieu Well, I might have access to one of those. Although I’d buy the cassette purely as an objet d’art.

@vinylscrobbler @analogue01 @JSpacewoman @NormChambers @s_davachi @SimonRetromania @geetadayal @crys_cole @NedRaggett @Audiopile_ @gregdavismusic @carlstone Permanent Records in Highland Park used to be quite good. Haven’t been there in a long time. And there’s always Amoeba…

@vinylscrobbler @analogue01 @JSpacewoman @NormChambers @s_davachi @SimonRetromania @geetadayal @crys_cole @NedRaggett @Audiopile_ @gregdavismusic @carlstone Freakbeat (@FreakbeatRecs) is possibly the best record shop in LA (well, Sherman Oaks, technically). But don’t tell anyone … it’s a secret.

[Herr Doktor Simon @nondescripto]

Here for the #Strauss…

[Herr Doktor Simon @nondescripto]

It’s been far too long…

The first opera of the new season is also one of my absolute favourites.

Final evening of #MusikfestBLN.
More Philharmonie, more Stockhausen.

[Herr Doktor Simon @nondescripto]

A mind-expanding evening in the company of Stockhausen’s Klavierstücke at #MusikfestBLN.

[Herr Doktor Simon @nondescripto]

Mahler time.
