if ever there was a picture that summed up the sonic chaos of 2026 for me, then it’s this picture.
basically, this is a picture of my crappy, cheap as chips laptop that i run my sonos system from.
as you can see, there are 2 stickers either side of the keyboard.
on the left is a sticker from the northern ambient techno collective, the black dog, who have in the last few years released a lot of fantastic new and remastered old material, and have made the walls of ireallylovemusic hq shake.
on the other side of the keyboard, is a new addition from the weaponize records label, who have in the last 18 months provided all manner of brilliant hip hop mixtapes on cd, that have subsequently revived my love for a genre i never thought i would reconnect with.
my dilemma has now been represented in sticker form everytime i use my crappy cheap-as-chips laptop.
