The PAR AVION split CD by The Ithaca Trio and Machinefabriek is a rather lovely thing, too. Atmosphere, classical instruments, ambience, things heard from another room.

Electronic Music In The Classroom
This is a rather magnificent hauntological/retrotronic artifact by Jon Brooks, who records on the Ghost Box label as The Advisory Circle.
I've gone on at length in the past about the traditions of Confusing English Electronic Music. I realise it's an acquired taste, and possibly only appeals to someone with certain life experiences, but nonetheless I love it. The tracks are short – if one experiment annoys you, click on to the next. And if you like it, click through and buy it for a very...

A Witch House Mix I Just Found Via EyeCrossCross
Awesome Witch House mix!
Posted via email from warrenellis's posterous
Fthursday
Random catch-up on stuff and things, from this slowly dying Thinkpad X61 that buzzes more loudly and moves more slowly every day. Definitely need to order another Thinkpad next week, now, even though I'm dreading having to deal with a new OS and replace all my programs. I wish I could be zen about it, like Ben Hammersley, and live in Zumodrive and Google Docs. But I need OpenOffice and Final Draft. (And a dozen other things.)

Sleep Ranger (Blissed Out's +Lindsay Lohan Fuck U+ Edit) by Pink Priest
3rd collection of Pink Priest edits and remixes… Chopped, sliced, grimed out, fucked, thrashed, and rehashed. Sonic manipulation and copulation.
Hexes 3 features the work of Blissed Out, Jeans Wilder, CVLTS, Virgin Spirit, Matthewdavid, DCLXVI, Juve, and Nowa Huta!
This pleases me immensely for some reason.

This pleases me immensely for some reason.
As I said to Cherie last night, I've been waiting twenty years to see hot blue-haired women on the cover of LOCUS.
Also, I remember Liz Gorinsky when she was a kid hanging out on my first message board. And now she's a full editor at Tor Books, as of about two weeks ago. Congratulations, Liz.
WIRED UK: Column 18
In which I rush out some notes on San Diego Comic-Con.
Compared to cinema attendance, comic book sales look small. But I just pulled up North America's estimated comics-sales figures for May, and the top comic sold 163,000 issues that month. That's a regular US-style comic single, costing $4 that goes directly to specialist comic-book shops. The top ten comics for that month sold a combined number in excess of a million units. The top 20? Somewhere over 1.6 million. And these estimates are...
