Moth Effect

Sun Electric Episodes album cover

#NowPlaying - Sun Electric’s Episodes on De:tuned. Featuring several slightly spooky #ambient #synth #drones.

A tea stain that looks like a stone age painting according to Google.

Google Lens AI has correctly identified this tea spillage as a 13,000 year old prehistoric cave painting. I knew I should never have got rid of that carpet.

Four ventriloquist dummies sitting on a Union Jack chair.

Terrifying scenes in Shoreham-by-Sea. I think I’ve got automatonophobia.

Male blackbird on roof signing in the dusk.

Male blackbird springtime evening sing-along. #Birds #Sussex

Busy couple of nights in the back garden. #Badger #Fox #Sussex #Wildlife #Trailcam

Waymarking dis on a wooden post saying ‘1066 Nude Walk’ in marker pen.

Just bring your boots and watch out for the nettles. #Sussex #Walking #FingerPostFriday

Scary allotment scarecrow

This allotment scarecrow definitely won’t be waking at night and remorselessly hunting you down for picking the 13th beetroot.

Late night black and white, back garden badger action. #Badger #Sussex #TrailCam #Wildlife

Smooth newt in a pond at night.

The newts in the pond have awoken. I, for one, welcome our springtime amphibian overlords. #Newts

A male shop dummy with its bits and bobs hanging out.

Indecent exposure in Marks And Spencers.

Thanks. Looking forward to trying that!

Distant shots of a #Fulmar off Newhaven cliffs. One of my favourite seabirds. Can you get those wings a bit straighter, please? #Birds

Newhaven Harbour Arm and Seaford Head.

Up at Newhaven Heights in #Sussex with the chalk cliffs of Seaford Head in the distance. It’s a weird vibe up there.

Head shot of young wood pigeon in the rain.

Side-eye from a young Wood Pigeon in the rain. #Birds #Sussex

Same!

Stylophone theremin and Ibanez de7 pink delay pedal

Today’s noise will be courtesy of a #Stylophone #Theremin into an old #Ibanez DE7 delay…very boingy!

Nice to see ‘El Chonko’ is still visiting the garden. #Sussex #Trailcam #Fox

A head shot of a very wet Wood Pigeon

A soggy back garden Wood Pigeon this afternoon. #Sussex #Birds #UKBirds #EndlessBloodyRain

Yamaha SU200 sample CD

Tonight’s desperate search for inspiration involves sampling drums from this crunchy old CD. #Yamaha. (I had this sampler, it was very crap.)

‘Could it be magic? The universe sent me Gary Barlow.’ Cover of Take A Break Fake & Fortune magazine

A conker with a supposedly spooky face.

I’m a big fan of Take A Break’s Fate & Fortune magazine. It’s basically a spooky Viz.

Pan Pipe Dreams cassette tape cover.

Friday night…time to sample some Pan Pipe Dreams. #Cassette

Chilli pepper seed packets - Fresno, Chilhuacle Negro, Razzamatazz, Ali limon

My #Chilli #Pepper planting plans for this year are all sorted…fingers crossed for a warm summer.
