We have new #music out today!

'Carousel' was written with #piano genius Meg Morley.

The piece was originally written for our live score to the film 'People on Sunday' filmed in #Germany. We wanted the track to sound like we were emerging from a nightclub into the early morning streets of #Berlin. The artwork was taken through a vintage #kaleidoscope & put us in mind of stained glass/churches - The palace of the people! ✊️

Streaming possible / #Bandcamp preferred: https://howdoesitfeeltobeloved.bandcamp.com/album/carousel

Carousel, by Haiku Salut and Meg Morley

How Does It Feel To Be Loved?
I've had a few conversations this week where people have suggested that social media may have reached its 'peak'. Now, wouldn't that be a thing? I've been feeling the saturation and manipulation for a while. It all feels so at odds with music and art yet its power has seemed so inescapable. Perhaps not for much longer! It'll be interesting to see what happens next.
Testing out a mid 90s Warp #electronica sound palette for my generative #chess music using a classic game between Karpov amd Kasparov. For the drums the entire board effectively operates as an 8 instrument drum rack, while the individual pieces play #synths as usual.
Hello & thanks for making me feel so welcome here. As a keen Tw*tter user for many years, am still feeling my way in this new environment. I've been a radio presenter at BBC 6 Music since 2002 & have supported independent artists via BBC Introducing since 2007. I first became known as a songwriter when the Tom Robinson Band enjoyed brief UK chart success in the 1977-9 punk era. Also mild notoriety as vocal supporters of LGBT+ equality and Rock Against Racism. More info at http://tomrobinson.com

Before #mushroom season is over I'd like to say how incredible they are. We have lots in the hills near us, all of the colours and all the scales of poison. The way they react to disturbances and the subsequent regrowth remind me of the tiny decisions we make as musicians in the moment and the patterns of unintentional coordination that emerge. I love them and their strange little ways.

Before things get too weird - see here some parrot waxcaps Gemma found the other day (edible/not palatable)

#introduction !

We are Gemma, Louise, and Sophie and we write music out of the #Derbyshire hills. Our music has been described as #electronica, #neoclassical, and #hauntology.

We have released five albums and have often toured with a stage full of vintage lamps programmed to flicker and dance to our music. More recently we've been seen doing #LiveScores to silent films.

We toured in Japan once and lost a lot of money but did meet a baby dressed as watermelon.

Hey everyone - time to follow @kaylapainter for max Kayla Painter updates

Hello friends! We've just played the last show in the diary & have nothing booked in next year. We're now happily looking into the abyss...

We're thinking about severely switching up our writing process & spending some time not drowning but not swimming either.

If we were to share some bits as we flounder would that be of interest? Vulnerability would scare us into interesting places I think. Does anyone have any tips on the best way to do that on here?

Would like to respect the etiquette!

Probably time for a #FF in a bout of nostalgia. Here's some music making folks.
