Nothing more satisfying in life than opening a window and the fly goes straight out with no messing.

I fell in love with Rome this weekend.

hey since the overall state music journalism is pretty shitty rn, be an ally and follow the Beats Per Minute crew. we're a small, spunky operation of scribes who love each other's work to death. and we could use some love back in these dark days.

What Jasper said…

Got my pre-release copy of “Where We Come From” by Aniefiok 'Neef' Ekpoudom - can’t wait to dig in. I’ll be chatting to Neef at Faversham Literary Festival in February. Tickets on sale from this Saturday.

Hold onto your eyeballs, folks. Seems as though Duncan Jones is a man of his word….principal photography wrapped for the Rogue Trooper® film.

Yeah, I was lucky enough to see #DunePart2 tonight but I will need to see it again. The scale of it is just off the hook. Rebecca Ferguson is mesmeric. Bardem, Chalamet and Zendaya are nothing but pure chemistry on screen. Visually stunning, epic in scope, cinema at its peak.

Go buy “Where We Come From” by the wonderful Aniefiok 'Neef' Ekpoudom - it’s so much more than about grime and UK rap. Social history and the lived experiences of those on the margins of society in Britain today are documented with a focus few achieve in their writing. And he’s a top bloke.

I don't care if Oasis or Coldplay played your venue. I care that you managed to support some weirdos playing to 10 people for years and managed to stay open. Anyway rant over, apologies.

Got a Carly Rae Jepsen mug today from my students during their last lesson before study leave. These kids know me.

Managed to have the briefest of chats with Albini on two occasions. He seemed genuinely nice. Wasn’t up for my idea of a game of poker, though.

Quite drunk. Got home and squashed a fly. Said out loud “Go tell your friends.” Would do it again.

Third anniversary yesterday since my mum died - seeing Suede HQ play “She Still Leads Me On” last night was one of the most emotional and life-affirming things ever. Love that band.

I reviewed the outstanding new Belong record for Beats Per Minute

I've lived with this album on constant rotation for the last 3 weeks. To objectively review an album from @TheCure was super tricky. beatsperminute.com/album-review-t… #TheCure #songsofalostworld #albumreview #newalbum #RobertSmith

Off to catch the train to see The Cure tonight for maybe the 20th time - at 51, this is the **MOST** excited for a gig I've ever been. There will be tears.
