Act dumb, get the thumb.

In a surprise to no-one, that’s Caroline Street (aka Chippy Lane) in Cardiff.

It’s the OST - really nice edition.

My Splatoon-obsessed son recommends In Filtration from Splatoon 3.

From Streets of Rage 2: Slow Moon by Yuzo Koshiro and Motohiro Kawashima.

Great choice. I’ve got this album on vinyl and it’s excellent from start to finish.

Great riff in this. I saw an excellent tribute band a couple of months ago and this was in the set list.

3.6. Not great, not terrible.

Cwtch is the most obviously Welsh word there.

Talk of the Devils (Manchester United podcast) The Athletic FC (general football) Kino Kingdom (movie podcast by two of my friends) By Far The Greatest Team (football history, my uncle is one of the hosts) The Rest is History (er, history) Doom Tomb (doom metal) Page 94 (UK politics)

Not sure these new Enid Blyton books capture the spirit of the originals.

Dredicus.

It kept Ultravox’s Vienna from number one in the charts. Apparently Midge Ure has never got over it.

The first Roman fort on the site of the castle was likely built around 55AD.

Exquisite Corpse by Poppy Z. Brite is an experience.

What Does Your Soul Look Like, Pt. 2, by DJ Shadow. On a weekend away, drinking wine with a Spotify playlist on.

I’d play the hell out of that.

I work from home a lot so I can use my record player, and I’ve got all kinds of stuff ranging from Taylor Swift and Lana Del Rey to Electric Wizard and Monolord. I write for a gaming website on the side and often get sent soundtracks to review, so I can spend ages on that as well. It’s mostly what I’m in the mood for, although if I need to concentrate it has to be something without lyrics or I lose focus.

Record collector here too. I can tell you exactly when I started, and it was when I saw a copy of Beggar’s Banquet by the Rolling Stones for 50p in a charity shop. Didn’t even have a record player at the time. Now I’ve got 471 records and counting and spend far too much money on the hobby.
