Wot , mad and French 

They remind me of the sort of act I used to see at down at heel jazz dives in parts of Germany.

Hmmm. Elements of Jean-Michel Jarre sprang to mind

Currently listening to a compilation album put together as a tribute to a former band-mate and friend who passed recently.  We played in a goth-rock-ish band back in the 1990s.  More recently he'd been performing electronic pieces locally.

The album includes one of our old live tracks, one of his recent pieces and a whole bunch of stuff from friends, other local bands and some international artists.  Vary varied

Quote from: Nbodger on May 08, 2026, 06:47:43 PMRumoured he has taken refuge in Macdonalds. 

No, that can't be right. They don't serve VB in there.

One would need lashings 'N' lashings of VB to recover from a visit to McDonalds. Might take several days.

Well he has had a recent residency in a recovery centre.

Perhaps he visits the Golden Arches more than he lets on

It's pretty certain not to appeal to everyone - a sort of Middle Eastern/African jazz fusion ensemble.

Yep, I can see where you are coming from Martin @port perran , nice!

Sorry @kusojiji Looking Glass does nothing for me I'm afraid.

Well, it's free and low effort so it's for them to decide if they want to try it, even thirty active users is enough for a really enjoyable niche server. That's the only end it needs in my own view. It's never going to be a massive recruitment tool for the scale.

It's crazy that I've never heard of two of those YouTube channels. So much for the algorithm! James's channel is superb and I really enjoy it. I'll check out Chandwell and Elvenholme.

An absolute classic I can agree with.
