Just read an absolutely smashing article on Ambient House: The Story of Chill Out Music 1988-1995.

Fascinating stuff. I'm re-reading it and taking notes on the one or two audio treasures that I wasn't already familiar with.

The Disaster Artist

Finished this today and it's awesome. I recommend it to absolutely everyone, no mater whether they know, have seen or are at all interested in "The Room".
I haven't even seen this notoriously terrible movie, but the story about how it got made and about the friendship of Greg and Tommy Wiseau is absolutely hilarious, at times surprisingly touching and always highly entertaining.

I found it was a little too, I don't know, out of place for my taste?

You're ignoring the subtleties. The fine details can apply to anyone's life situations, which is the beauty of it.

I never truly understood what "the bed" was referring to. Who's bed is being layed upon? I always asked myself. Now that you mentioned it though, I do have a bed myself...

I Am Ozzy and Steven Tyler's autobiography 'Does the Noise In My Head Bother You?'
I also read one HP Lovecraft story each night ;)

Absolutely thrilled with the book Ocean of Sound by David Toop. Just finished a chapter exploring a dream Sun Ra had about buying socks, and the next chapter title was so exciting I had trouble putting it down -

3 scanning: aether talk

Ambient in the 1990s; Scanner, John Cage, acid house, disco; AMM; Telepathic Fish, Biosphere Mixmaster Morris, Land of Oz, The Orb, The KLF

How much awesome can you cram into one chapter?
