@astronomerritt Oh no! Look after yourself and hopefully chat at #ThePlaylist, although I’m away this week so won’t be there.

Well *I* have just learned a big, BIG lesson.
If you remove a delete a Syncthing folder from a computer that still expects to have that folder, and you forget to disable Syncthing on that computer, there's a strong, STRONG likelihood that it'll corrupt ALLLLL of the devices in your Syncthing network.
Yeah.
Just opened up #ThePlaylist folder on my MacBook, and while all the folders were there, none of the files were. Nor were any of the files in any of the other folders.
So I hooked into my server. Same. Folders, no files. At all.
Same on my phone.

How FUCKING lucky am I that the iMac is being fucky, because it synced, then died, and has been powered off ever since. Yanked the ethernet, booted it up, IMMEDIATELY turned off the wifi, then copied the Syncthing folder onto a thumb drive.

Gorgeous: The Ship Song / Nick Cave
What a voice!
The lyrics land a little differently if you imagine it's Iran singing to Trump. Or Trump singing to Iran.
Come sail your ships around me
And burn your bridges down
We make a little history, baby
Every time you come around
Come loose your dogs upon me
And let your hair hang down
You are a little mystery to me
Every time you come aroundhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2jXenQTrVp8

Catching up with last nights #ThePlaylist , the theme might be an accident but no mistakes were made with the tunes. Sepultura and that Nia archive track are personal highlights.

@DJDarren … now woken from a broken night’s sleep and I got more to justify selection. ‘Wash Your Face …’ samples Count Basie, who was apparently ‘awarded’ his countdom during a live radio broadcast, of which #ThePlaylist is one, and you can’t do that without some electric, can ya? I mean go on, just try it. 🙂

@DJDarren
Right then. One for "Electric" and one for "Dreams":- OMD - Tesla Girls
- Classix Nouveaux - Is It A Dream
and of course because both of those fall into the synth pop genre, which I'm sure numerous music journos have written about using "Electric Dreams" as their headline, they're double winners.
Also because I know everyone tends to stay away from the obvious, I can't not mention Phil & Giorgio, can I.

I’d like electricity please, Darren:
OMD - Electricity
Guy Garvey - Electricity
Spiritualized - Electicity

NEXT WEEK ON #ThePlaylist
After this week's shambolic with the theme, we figured it might be good to land on firmer ground that we couldn't possibly bugger up, so with that in mind, next week's theme is:
Electric Dreams
Other than the obvious, what does that conjure in your mind? Fling your suggestions at #ThePlaylistSuggestion (and try to ensure that the posts are public, because my greedy little bot is respectful of privacy and won't see them).
We're looking forward to seeing where this one goes!

Join #ThePlaylist on a grand tour as this week's theme takes us to:
South (of the United States of) America
where all of the tunes are, in some ways moreso than others, related to the lands to be found South (of the United States of) America. And not South Africa. Definitely not. It's a whole different place.
#TheArchive - https://djdarren.site/archive/podcast/theplaylist-113-south-of-the-united-states-of-america/
Listen! Enjoy! Tell all your friend!

Well, considering how much I MASSIVELY regretted suggesting this theme last week, given what shaky ground I built it on, it ended up being enormous fun.
Thanks to all who listened in!
Boa noite!

If you're enjoying this, and you're young and have never heard it before; go and listen to the whole album. It's a fucking masterpiece.

I have to say, I'm loving the mix of actual South American artists and European acts singing songs about South (of the United States of) America(n) things.

This is not the most tenuous justification for a suggested song this week, btw. There was an even better one. Sadly though, I'm not playing it.

I very, very almost partially ignored the actual suggestion of this one and went with The Bees cover, which is every bit and joyful, and half the length. But I did not.
