Sometimes life gifts you phrases that would be a great album title. Like, teaching someone how to put on a bow tie gave me “Crossing The Long End”, and last weekend gave me “Ineffectually Hate Crimed By The Elderly In Bognor”
psssst
they say that even though it’s now Saturday…. the legend of Bandcamp Friday lives on for at least one more hour

#bandcampFrigay sad music dot etc
tell one person you know about sadmusic.gay today (being sad and/or gay not a prerequisite to enjoying its contents but doesn’t hurt) #bandcampFriday
can you tell I’m bored at lunch yet
the beautiful irony of it all is that by deliberately attempting to create a non-cept album the process itself introduces thematic/mechanical conceptuality!
You may ask “is it possible to place an album at max narrative but only middle hardness?” to which I say buy In Defence Of The Archivist at sadmusic.gay this #bandcampFriday
Identifying a non-cept album is left as an exercise for the reader but not the Reeder.
and the “narrative/thematic” axis, where peak narrative is an album that tells a story from beginning to end in order (for example, the Hadestown Original Cast Recording) and peak thematic is where the album‘s concept is mechanical but not narrative (e.g. Now That’s What I Call Music ‘97).
All Albums can be placed on a grid of Conceptuality, with two axes: the soft-hard concept axis (where a maximally hard concept album would be, for example, the Hadestown Original Cast Recording, and a minimally hard concept album (or non-cept album) would be where no tracks have any relation at all)
maybe I'll do a more professional post tomorrow, maybe I don't
we'll see
tomorrow is Bandcamp Friday once again and you should consider my wares

The way this record evolves from soft noise and drones into solid instrumentation and melodies across its runtime is really lovely; like buildings taking shape as they poke out of the mist
I’ve had Dominique Fils-Aimé on my radar for a little while but sat down last month and listened to aaaaaall of her albums in, like, a day. Her work with vocals and looping in the live setting is really wonderful, and the production on these records is unreal. Like she’s in the room with you.
(I wanna see people's trinkets)
Other desk trinkets include: fake plant; hero forge miniature of first ever ttrpg character; letter from friend that I need to reply to; mug with R on it (ymmv on whether this will work for you); paintings from old students
Highly recommend:
a) desk trinkets that make you feel good
b) selecting a Trademark Animal
c) combinations of a and b
