16 years ago I inherited Patrick Cowley’s tape deck thanks to Paul Parker. Now it’s on display at my shop. So many incredible songs were recorded on this machine. 🎶 Stop by and see it 1-6pm Friday-Sunday and any other time during the week by appointment 📅

Remembering Patrick Cowley (October 19, 1950 - November 12, 1982) who passed away 43 years ago today. We continue to honor his legacy and preserve his contributions that forever changed the world of electronic dance music. Here’s a tribute from The Voice (San Francisco) published November 19, 1982. “This young artist had the opportunity to make a written statement before he died. He chose instead to make his statement through his music. Patrick Cowley is dead at 32. Whether for a party, for dancing, or just for listening, the musical images of Patrick Cowley are very much alive.” - Allen White

This Friday's radio show was a difficult episode to put together but it's dedicated to the late Silent Servant ahead of what would have been his 47th birthday on August 14th. We recorded a mix and interview at the very end of 2023 just before his tragic passing in January.

while I'm telling you what I think you should do, I think everybody needs to listen to "Motor Tapes"- a simply gorgeous album of longform compositions by Sarah Hennies on New World Records newworldrecords.bandcamp.com…

Oof…this hits hard for me. In 2017 I could no longer afford to maintain vehicles from my touring income & decided to stop. My guarantees never passed 150-200$ & I just couldn’t make it work. STILL have had people tell me it’s my fault I’m not making $ bc I won’t tour right now.
For how many years have we all been told to make up what we can no longer earn from recordings by playing live… read this article theguardian.com/music/2024/a…
