Put together by Dirk Serries, it features my collaborations with him, Colin Webster, Ed Lucas and Bobby Barry, all released between 2014-2019
To some extent I miss making this kind of work, but other music and projects have taken over (and my more recent work of this ilk hasn't been released yet). I expect I'll return to it once the PhD is over.

Walther Rauff was an SS commander directly responsible for the deaths of more than 90,000 Jews, but was never caught. Later he became close to the Chilean fascist dictator Augusto Pinochet, and probably participated in the torture and disappearances that characterised Pinochet’s regime - a regime actively supported by neoliberalism's key progenitors Ronald Reagan and Margaret Thatcher, along with its key theorist Friedrich Hayek, and economists 'the Chicago Boys'.
Really, there has only ever been a sliver of respectability between the dominant anglo-saxon economic ideology of the last 40 years and fascism. Trump, Musk, etc, are no anomaly in this history - they are continuity.

These rather charming creatures are very common where I live in rural Luxembourg; so much so that they have achieved the dubious distinction of being considered vermin! The reason for this, is their tendency to explore the under-bonnet space on parked cars and other vehicles and chew through electrical wiring and rubber hoses; not a popular habit!
They are nocturnal visitors to the compost bins in our garden where they forage in the food waste!

I haven't been around A MAZE for a couple of years but was and am considering to go for at least a day this year. Here's to a good event - while the situation is probably extra stress for the team in the short term, I do hope it leads them to a more sustainable organizational structure.
