A sum up of 2024.
Live: No gigs in 2024, I plan to change this in '25, but the main focus has been recording new materials and learning new audio gear.
Recordings: I've been recording, editing a bit, but nothing has been released this year. In 2025 a issue/re-issue of Feral Tape is planned. But I'll a post more on this when it's out.
Best of 2024: (aka a list of records that came out this year / experiences / reissues that really stood out over the last year, in no order at all), I spent a good afternoon looking through all the CDs, LPs, tapes and Bandcamp digital downloads I can remember. I'll probably spend too long on this as per usual and then miss something off by accident.
