now we're talking, this is fantastic:

Breaking news from a post by M. S. Waldron:

Well, the day has finally arrived. I've been excited about this for a very long time, but wanted to wait until the official release happened before I made any announcements. A new album from the remarkable Diana Rogerson has finally been released today on Bandcamp! There doesn't seem to be any news about this anywhere else online, so I'm assuming that hardly anyone knows about it. A shame she missed Bandcamp Friday by a single day! I love this album and have been greatly anticipating it's release. It's a very quiet & unassuming arrival of a fabulous new record from an incredibly unique artist, so I'm going to make a bit of noise about it and strongly encourage you to investigate & support this release!

'Blue Bottle In A Jam Jar' has been in the works for quite sometime, but I can only provide details from my own involvement. Diana asked me to do the cover art for the album back in mid-2019, and I assume initial recording was already underway at the time. She asked me to master the album back in April 2021, and I did some additional remixing and embellishment of four of the tracks in the following months. I thought those four remixes/revisions I'd made (tracks 3, 4, 6 and 8 ) would just be added as bonus tracks of some kind, but I guess they've supplanted the earlier versions entirely. I'm not aware of the particulars about how the tracks were recorded in Ireland before they were sent to me, so I'm afraid I can't provide more information about that. However she went about it, she's managed to put together yet another fabulous record that easily stands alongside her two classic Chrystal Belle Scrodd records from the 80s and 'The Lights Are On But No-One's Home' from 2007. I hope she doesn't wait quite so long to do the next one!

thanks, MP3 blog of the mid-2000s that I can't remember

in sadly related news, this is printed on the back of the newest CD (Deadlined):

"Deadlined is an unfinished 2019 album stopped in it's (sic) tracks by Covid, making travel and recording plans near impossible for the unjabbed leper."

so.... that's kind of a drag

ugh yes to put it mildly

was trying to pull punches out of nostalgia but it genuinely breaks my heart

mine too. this is an act whose music is special to me, and some of that specialness is a feeling of intellectual kinship -- shared interests, a common groove that runs through visual art & sound & affect. no gods no heroes right? but, like...it's kind of like learning a beloved professor, somebody who walked you through poetry and took you to places you might never have found by yourself, harbors some really unpleasant reactionary position. I don't feel like "he buried this sentiment in some liner notes" rises to the level of "then don't buy this guy's music," you know, but...it knocks him off a pedestal, is all, and I liked my man up on his weird pedestal of illumination there, instead of in the sea of people who've made the world worse.

extremely otm, thank you for saying it so well
