hello. It is a Sunday morning, Sam is practicing the piano next door. We began learning the harmonies for Simon & Garfunkel’s arrangement of Scarborough Fair earlier in the week, which Sam is now playing on the keyboard to memorise. In 15 minuets (at the time of writing) I will be moving live sounds from the March Against US-Zionist Terror in London to Radio Alhara in Bethlehem, and WaveFarm in Acra (upstate New York).
I have lots of different (active*) accounts that I publish lots of different things to:
youtube (mort drew) – video art
youtube (gravemere) – vlogs and music videos
tiktok (gravemere) – music promotion
instagram (mort_drew) – personal / work promotion
instagram (gravemere) – music promotion
instagram (soundcamp) – work promotion
pinterest (gravemere) – music / self promotion
tumblr (gravemere) – social / music promotion bandcamp (gravemere) – music distribution distrokid (gravemere) – music distribution
mailing list (mort drew) – work / music promotion
mailing list (soundcamp) – work promotion
website (mort drew) – work documentation
website (trans activist radio group) – work documentation
radio server (thick-air) – to make radio work
* i have lots of de-activated accounts that I should find time to document too
but on Monday as I got into the shower I thought about starting a blog. I used to have a blog back in 2016 (i think) when I first moved to london and started going to gigs but it was deleted along with my old website after i joined the boycott of Wix web hosting. I already have a tumblr blog but it’s primary use is to have a pretty looking page to host links when I promote my music.
This blog will likely be short texts, media and scraps. Written as if I was writing you a letter. I don’t feel good predetermining it’s usage. I’m mostly interested in opening it up as another space to publish to, one beyond promotion and follower counts.
My friend Marf once told me i was very good at curating youtube recommendations, and that I should start a mailing list so that others could benefit.
Following that line of thought, here is a link to a VHS rip of Simon & Garfunkel’s 1981 reunion performance at Central Park to over 500,000 people.
