• “But in the title track, Homosapien contains a truly great song; four and a half minutes of bubbling synth and clever wordplay, atop which Shelley puts to one side the knowing coyness he’d frequently inserted into his contributions to the Buzzcocks catalogue, loosens his tie, and, as much as he ever committed to tape, is explicit in telling the listen exactly what he desires.” James McMahon on Pete Shelley’s first proper solo album.

Kosmischer Läufer, the reissue project for East German kosmische music of the 1970s which may not be entirely authentic, has now reached its fourth volume. Authentic or not, the attention to detail is impressive.

    Thank YOU, Sir!

  3. Thanks, everyone. I will, of course, be continuing in the usual fashion since I can’t help sharing interesting things, and offering an alternative to the monoculture(s) we’re all supposed to accept without question.

    I’m currently working on a series of my own creations which I’m hoping may find their way into the world this year. More about this later.
