Do you know how to fix & maintain the machines in this pic (as well as, tbh, every sound & moving image playback format ever created…)? Or do you know someone who can? @soundarchive are currently hiring for an Audiovisual Electronics Engineer (job ad link threaded below)

Wanna get paid to look through these records at the National Sound Archive for 6 months with me? Then send me a DM for details! For once the role does not require SQL/database/XML/metadata etc knowledge - Excel & solid familiarity w/vinyl records are the main prerequisites - hmu!

A personal message to our 1990s weekend team Sparta Wimbledon from the legend himself. 'May your crazy gang always beat the culture clubs'. RIP Motty

Very sad to hear Angelo Badalamenti has shuffled off. His work with David Lynch on ‘Blue Velvet’ and ‘Twin Peaks’ was peerless - Julee Cruise’s ‘Falling’, for which he wrote the music, is one of the most poignant TV themes ever made. Rest easy, maestro. #AngeloBadalamenti
