Yikes – at some point over the weekend the original BeatBearing video hit one and a half million views on YouTube. I’d like to thank the YouTube user “iwouldlikemuffin1” for being 1500000th…

Carbon Turntable Sequencer
Liking the look of this turntable sequencer by Daniel Skoglund. There’s some more of his music on his myspace page (“kretsar” has a nice pops’n’clicks ambient vibe).[via: Synthtopia]

Audio-visual work from Brian Cullen, check out his YouTube channel for more videos. This one is a little like Autechre’s Gantz Graf with creatures.

Surf was flat Friday afternoon, so took Ada for a session on the Croyde concrete mini. Had fun keeping the board under her over the pump bump, and learning sweeper transfers over the spine.

Sunday morning skate sesh. Ada got a rock fakie down on the skinny mini (with a strong double arm assist) while I got up to speed with my first frontside 50 50 for a while (no assist, ha). Fun trying her out on the ancient plastic skateboard I remember using as a kid. Bonus techno-viking style pointing while stopping for a coffee and some mall-grab practice on the grass 😅

Totally going to steal this “swivel reverse instrument swap” for next time I’m playing out. I think Ada’s picking up her new drums I brought back from New Orleans quicker than I’m getting the hang of the pocket trumpet 😅

AMBIENT CAFE
Saturday 3pm-6pm (tomorrow!)
@friendlyrecords on North St
Join us for an afternoon of eclectic ambient from Muzak Concrète DJs (@noodsradio) interwoven with tabletop experiments from guest local ambient artists including @looseforms and Nick Janaway. A tapestry of cascading synths, bleeps & celestial vibrations, field recordings, intricate wallpaper muzak, earthy drones, textural trips, ambient & ambience. We make a space for indirect listening and background enjoyment. Bring your knitting, a book or chess set, pull up a chair and immerse yourself in the music.

Had the afternoon free after the CHI’22 conference wrapped up so did the obvious thing and shlepped across town to New Orlean’s brass specialist @neworleanstrumpets to buy a pocket trumpet. Turns out New Orlean’s oldest tree was round the corner so ended up having a first play sat on it’s trunk (with new mute firmly in place) hoping to invoke some kind of jazz skills transfer magic but instead mildly disturbing a dog walker who strayed too close. Did get an album promo shot though 😅

Happy Birthday Ada – one today!
Bonus fist bump superhero pose photo from when she was a few days old this time last year and looked more like a potato. The efforts to recreate the pose more accurately this year were futile 😅
