Happy #WorldCircusDay!
To celebrate here’s a big-top tune by my favorite Japanese cabaret #Accordion sisters duo #CharanPoRantan
@jonathankoren
Not sure where I stand on that debate, but we’ve played Margaret Killjoy’s project Feminazgul on @accordionnoir radio
“Illa, Mother of Death”
from, No Dawn For Men

These are so cool

Back to typing up newspaper references to the German accordionist and tuner I found travelling around mid/late 19th century Scotland. Have now typed up 240/276 newspaper references to him. Here is one just typed, from Selkirk in 1859. I will be writing this all up as an academic journal paper soon. #accordion #squeezebox #music #Scotland #Selkirk #newspapers

Ah, didn’t see this since my #accordion hashtag sweep doesn’t trawl Pixelfed
Should figure a way to do that
Nice one
1930s maybe?
@aka_quant_noir
You do not mention whether the film has #accordion in it
I just watched Peace by Chocolate
which has some nice touches in the soundtrack by David Bertok and is up on #AccordionBandcamp
He plays &
in the orchestra
https://davidbertok.bandcamp.com/album/peace-by-chocolate-original-motion-picture-soundtrack
The movie is based on a true story of a Syrian refugee family that came to #Canada and started a chocolate factory in Saskatchewan
There’s a book version in the shop where they sell their #chocolate!

Hey folks, I just bought an accordion. Used. Old. Off Craigslist. I'll post about it sometime soon.
What I'm watching tonight is The Loft (2014), directed by Erik van Looy, starring Karl Urban, James Marsden, and Wentworth Miller. It's an erotic thriller I guess? I seem to remember something about it when it came out but that was in the before times. Is it good? It lost money...

After that, Frances (1982), directed by Graeme Clifford, starring Jessica Lange. It's a biopic. A tragedic biopic about Frances Farmer. Here's the link.

@OccasionalDucks SG Sinnicks does a version of that with a bit #accordion, but it’s not on the Bandcamp version of his album* for some reason
We’ll throw it on @accordionnoir radio this week with thanks to you for the reminder
That record does have his great “Jesus Was a Refugee” we play every #Christmas

Well worth getting on #AccordionBandcamp
Listening to this while making a sandwich, I couldn’t help starting to dance. It’s Tom Moore and Archie Moss’s “Pop One”.
Which means that for the first time in aages it is #TuneswapTuesday - has anyone else got a #FolkTune they’d like to share?
@michaelrperry
Having Pauline’s electronic #accordion join in the performance after her death might be something she’d have written into the score
@stonebear2
That is remarkable
Not sure how he’s doing all that with two hands
Since it is Easter...
Tradition says Mary Magdalene was the first to see Jesus exit the tomb.
Mary Magdalene's history was diminished & contorted by the church to serve its policies of male dominance & subjugation of women. What can an artist do but retaliate with art? In this case, I wrote a fast frailach in her honor.
I explain her story:

And now for something COMPLETELY different, and yet hauntingly familiar. My Scottish cousin is half-right, this USED to be a local tune, when the oldest mountains in the world weren't cut in half by a wee ocean...
Duelling... accordia?
