My new album Hiraeth is available today! Hiraeth is a Welsh word describing a feeling of homesickness, particularly for a place to which one cannot return, and likely might not even exist. And it’s a perfect description of how these pieces feel. Link in bio. #avlmusic
Well @bennjordan was right. Moog Music reportedly fired the bulk of their workers today in Asheville, according to posts from former staff. #avlnews

Tell me you don't know how to drive the car you just bought without telling me... Every day I'm amazed at just how incompetent this man can be. A never ending wellspring of surprises.
Nothing like waiting at the bus stop for 15 minutes for the last bus back to your neighborhood for the night because it is late only for it to cruise past you, beeping the horn to acknowledge you but not pick you up. Wtf @CityofAsheville there is absolutely no excuse for this.
What an incredible piece of footage. Go Taylor. More power to you.
That moment Taylor Swift Tells her dad she’s not staying quiet anymore! “@MarshaBlackburn is wrong and doesn’t stand for Christian values and Tennessee people” She is finally going to ignite her base! Listen till the end 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾 #taylorswift well done!
In 2006 I started work on a synth driven album that I hoped would follow up my sample based debut album. But I got distracted and started a rock band instead. That synth EP was just found, remastered and finally released, though! #avlmusic #avlent

Let me get this straight: Elon Musk thought the Twitter algorithm needed to be more transparent. So now he has changed the algorithm to promote accounts that pay him while letting them hide whether or not they are paying him.
Many thanks to NYC's @pjewingnyc for asking me to dig into my new album and it's influences. This is part one of our two-part interview... lesterthenightfly.com/2023/0… #avlent #avlmusic #ambientmusic #indiemusic

The devil doesn’t look like red lights and songs about sex.
He looks like a trusted pastor telling you he’s sorry, he’s not going to report your attacker to the police, your attacker is just too important to the ministry — and are you sure the attack wasn’t really your fault?

T’was a fun night seeing the Squirrel Nut Zippers and Dirty Dozen Brass Band the other night. It was also great to see Asheville’s own Hank West tearing up a saxophone with the rest of the nuts! #avlent #avlmusic instagram.com/p/CoSrh3gOQg-/… – at Asheville, NC

You want to fix policing? Remove their immunity so that they can be sued, and if you win, damages come out of the department's pension fund instead of from taxpayers.
They'll clean house on their own. Quickly.
