I like putting together an end of year "achievements" list because otherwise I feel like I have not done much. I guess it helps put it all into context that I do actually get some stuff sorted, which is nice.
So in 2022 I managed to:
- Release "Intrusive Signals" zine issue 3 (still a handful of copies left at a bargain bin price if you want one) - see here.
- Release a super limited split tape with Plague Arish for Supernormal Festival.
- Dump out a trio of digital-only EPs (Gritonometry and Safehouse Demo(n)s as Soloman Tump, and стіна as Postman Lomu).
- Complete the folk-horror 3" CDr trilogy that started with Grim's Ditch and Weland, capping off with the Palimpsest EP
- Start the Palimpsest live document of archival "live" recordings. I didn't add as many to this as I had hoped, but I shall update it soon with some new bits.
- Get a couple of articles published in the ever-impressive TQ Zine - cheers! Look out for my extended SPL/IT article in issue 57.
- also had an article included in the impressive tome-like Supernormal zine
- Release a collaborative album alongside Distraxi on CD - DARTMOOR ELECTRONICS. I am pretty proud of this one, its pretty brutal and I love the work Distraxi does.
- Put together 10 new radio shows of The Tump Clump.
- Collaborate with Arachnopus on a live audio/visual piece for Wonder Valley Experimental festival in California for Phog Masheeen
- Unleash a fairly banging guest radio mix for WCR Dark Train - a great show for Warminster Community Radio that always brings new music to my ears. Check it out
- Get to a few festivals and shows which felt damn good!
- Get some tracks on various compilation releases including bits for Moon Musiq, Front & Follow, Owlripper Recordings, Camembert Electrique, godNOISEgod - more details of each of these elsewhere on the blog.

So when I write it out like that, I guess I have achieved some things. 2023 might be quieter, I don't really have any plans for new zines (at present) but I hope to continue with releasing music and doing the radio show....
