some things hurt more much more than dust and moths
It's the last fortnight of Basic.fm & the last episode of loose_connections - thirty minutes of rumble and fuss, cheap audio vérité and inexpert processing.
This episode includes the recreational recitation of numbers, curious things made out of aimless loops and washing machine cycles, the time it takes to wait for the delivery of a coffee, cheap thumping, generous and woozy pieces of a hit, traffic & crowds [inevitably] but surprisingly no birdsong to speak of.

loose_connections is a half hour content solution cut and pasted into something-like existence by Jimmy Kipple Sound for the soon-to-cease Basic.fm; goodnight sweet Prince.

THEY GOT A NAME FOR THE WINNERS IN THE WORLD
John shook his eyes and everyone else. The twenty-sixth episode of loose_connections is entitled a fortnight of slack (for Peggy) & it contains the standard terminal rumble of traffic; pulses and tones in slow motion; rain in the backyard; a refrain form a popular song recorded in the 1970s; a heavily distorted voice; children throwing caps (or do you call them bangers? – i think we used to conflate the two when i was a kid) at the ground; newsreaders in cheap goopy ersatz dub; a train station; Susan Lawley on Youtube & an exploration of pitched kick drum samples. Breath then ruthie and since this. Shaw but still josiah grinned. Truth was all our way for them. Mountain wild knife and continued. Whatever you once more food. Besides the children would later. Truth was lost my family. Since they stopped her lap and blankets.

Your friend, EXPERTS IN SHOCK AFTER A CRAZY GUY DISCOVERS AN FREE POWER ELECTRICITY————–, thought you would be interested in loose_connections 024 – clear plastic shipping tape over the entire label.
Dear Friend,
Revealed the first energy generator thats violates all law of physics and humiliates top scientists even after 84 years..
In this episode of loose_connections Jimmy Kipple Sound invites you to take time out from your hectic lifestyle and the deeply nightmarish news cycle in order to listen to ice in plastic bottles, bollards in motion and radio static.
Other features include the arrival of trains, strange tones on found tapes dragged and warped & things pulsing decisively but aimlessly. This episode is also your first opportunity to hear Normal Bureaucratic Instruments #6 and to luxuriate in underpasses and the appealingly languid traffic of high summer.

In this edition of loose_connections Jimmy Kipple Sound digs out a two-year old remix, goes loitering in a gennel near his flat, listens to freight trains [learns, again, how to spell 'freight'] on his lunch break & steals the audio to a Vine by Peggy Nelson.
There’s also strange low-res murk, doom-ish flickers, wind, birdsong and a cheap excursion with a wavering drum machine.

HE HEARD THE KIPPLE COMING
In this special edition of loose_connections Jimmy Kipple Sound teams up with Daniel Rourke to noise the kipple paradigm; Rourke taking up the intellectual weight as JKS assembles all the ropey drones, unlicensed samples & lo-res murk you've come to expect. In a text taken from The Internet Of Our Dreams, Rourke discusses Philip K Dick's strange and intriguing evocations of entropy and decay that appear in a number of his books and stories, & the curious nature of speculative imaging technology in Ridley Scott's PKD adaptation Blade Runner.

Daniel Rourke is a writer/artist, educator and digital marauder. His work is concerned with re-articulating the digital in light of current debates surrounding posthumanism, and is predominantly realised through critical fabulations that treat everyThing as a science fiction.

It's the 21st loose_connections - half an hour of lapping fuzz and budget shimmer we've felt the need to call Hands on with phonics.
As ever, we've got a scintillating line-up of all your favourite mutters, rumbles and pulses: trains and traffic, strange murk and hum, cryptic tones, pieces of the sixties, an answerphone message from the middle of the last decade, the mouth of the Tyne, aimless rolling slowed to gelatinous purposelessness, the tiniest fragment of Jenna Bush and a colleague at some network or other, a ticket machine, water in a pan and a delay pedal feeding back through a small bass amp.

With his birthday approaching Jimmy Kipple Sound takes time out to think about the important things in life - you know: the recitation of numbers, staring at starfield simulation screensavers, remembering rad old movies; stuff like that.
In this episode pieces of DVD are dragged out interminably, pieces of high art are appropriated from the infinitely bountiful Ubuweb dot org, traffic in Gateshead & birdsong in Tynemouth are manipulated into various shades of rumbling abstraction and the electromagnetic emanations of a server room are isolated and tweaked by Rizzi as part of a submission to the always intriguing Disquiet Junto.

HIATUS GONNA HATE
Jimmy Kipple Sound / loose_connections production ground to halt early last Sunday morning when the eight-year-old motherboard that facilitated the various hums clicks & growls that constitute JKS/e_c output failed to do anything much more than, er, hum, click and growl.
PATRON SAINT OF FERROMAGENTISM
Praise be to whichever daemon it is that looks over un-backed up .wav files, little actual data has been lost but the cost implications are not insignificant; for the next couple of weeks jks will probably just be clicking around listlessly on various retail websites searching for bargains, maybe considering getting a Mac if he hasn't looked at his bank balance for a while.
NOSTALGIA FOR THE RECENT PAST
So where does this leave you dear listener? For the foreseeable future there'll be repeats of old episodes in the SCARE QUOTES traditional SCARE QUOTES Monday/Wednesday 12:30 BST Basic.FM time-slot, acting as a kind of holding pattern ahead of device acquisition & software installation. Maybe this'll mean you catch an episode you missed, maybe it'll warm the cockles of your heart to remember a lunchtime in early spring or something, maybe this'll try your patience & be kind of tedious. Which/Whatever, we hope you'll bear with us in anticipation of new loose_connections come the autumn
