Lite Hits
In the early 90s there were a few like minded friends making a unique style of lo-fi pop music. At the core of this non-scene were Sukpatch, Land of the Loops and The Ah Club, who all tended to play on each other's recordings.

A Marantz cassette recorder in front of me and a cheap mic stand with a single stereo mic in front of that. The ma…
The Endangered Species

The guillemots were being pulled out in a dreadful state. One reads about such things, but to see for oneself a bird's life being taken away from it is quite horrific. Their lives are short enough anyway. It brought home to me very directly the damage we are inflicting on ourse…
