I'm fatroland on Bluesky, and I'm fat_roland on Threads. The underscore is annoying. Think if it as a little thread connecting my fat and my roland.

It really made me want duck feet.

It’s the first weekend in UK shops for the new Electronic Sound, which celebrates 50 years of KRAFTWERK’s ‘Radio-Activity’. You can also buy the mag direct from us, bundled with a seven-inch of THE DIVINE COMEDY’s dazzling cover of the album’s title track. https://t.co/K6PSFlMTvJ

▶️ Charles Webster: Bakulindele. Evocative deep house from South Africa, with a caramel-rich build-up and all-tweaking filters made all dusky and hallucinatory.

▶️ Fatboy Slim & The Rolling Stones: Satisfaction Skank. This is the long-delayed release of Norman Cook's Jagger-juggling live favourite. It mixes the 1965 'Stones classic with his 1998 breakthrough hit The Rockafeller Skank.

NEW ISSUE OUT NOW! We’re marking 50 years of KRAFTWERK’s ‘Radio-Activity’ in this month’s Electronic Sound and we’re bundling the mag with a yellow vinyl seven-inch featuring THE DIVINE COMEDY’s epic version of the album’s title track. Get your copy now at https://t.co/K6PSFlMTvJ

For future US border folks reading my tweets: Trump is a tin-pot fascist, a KKK-wannabe & a no-good crook, and if you allow me into your country, I will do a tiny little poo on the White House lawn.

David Byrne out of that there Talking Heads band has shared an alternative Christmas playlist.

No Chiastic Slide-Guitar, but still...

"I've just been to the shop to buy milk, feta cheese and some mouldy old doughnuts." ✍️ My new blog post about Bjork's new album. https://t.co/dTkubHNzwU

▶️ Nathan Fake: Bialystok. A breath of fresh air from Mr Fake, with loads of analogue warmth and shuffling optimism: a Moby/Go for a new generation. Speakers up to max. Taken from his forthcoming new album Evaporator.

▶️ Soulwax: All Systems Are Lying. Title track and lead single from Soulwax's first album in ages. Tubular Bells meets Mario Kart, or the Chemical Brothers in a Turing Test. This is great.

Cabaret Voltaire the other night were cracking. Dusty old tunes polished up nice and good, all pin-sharp but loose in a giddy way. So glad I saw them. This was in Manchester, but here they are last month in some place called Sheffield.

Sad to hear about the death of Mani. Plenty of folks will be tipping their bucket hats to his membership of the Stone Roses, but his best work was on the Vanishing Point / XTRMNTR / Evil Heat albums for Primal Scream. RIP. https://t.co/K2CBXCR5Mk

On the Fat Roland laser gramophone today: Modeselektion Vol.04 (DJ Kicks) from 2018. Superb sinister tunes ahoy.

The single greatest line in movie history.

My transcription software is feeling seasonal. It has just transcribed someone saying "Crystal Castles" as "Christmas hostels ". Ho ho ho.

I'm throwing my hat into the ring. I'm a journalist, have edited a newspaper, been involved with community TV and radio, possess an independent mind, and I sensitively feel that concerns about woke can be thinly-veiled racism. Sorted. When do I start?

NEW ISSUE OUT NOW! This month’s Electronic Sound explores the strange and unsettling world of COLD WAR ELECTRONICA and we have a superb 35-track double CD to accompany the mag. Tension! Anxiety! Fear! Paranoia! Doom! Gloom! It’s all here! Get your copy at https://t.co/K6PSFlMTvJ

Stewart Lee: Using Grok is like believing what your farting uncle says at Christmas

"My notes for the album contain phrases like "so very very dirty" and "the scuzz is mesmerising", and "gaaaawjeous" which may or may not be a word." ✍️ Read my new blog post: Bruise Blood cuts deep in Electronic Sound magazine https://t.co/nU1eRZt81k
