A project by Steve Robertson, electronic music enthusiast, and sometimes producer.
Hello
I am a software developer and electronic music producer. I am interested in promoting a decentralised network for musicians and music enthusiasts.
I have created an instance for electronic music enthusiasts, and electro music makers at https://electro.social
This instance has open registration, and welcomes new participants.
Most of all I'm interested in developing some software with Android on the Raspberry Pi. I'm not that interested in Android when it's locked down, as it is usually. This could be really useful though.
The Raspberry Pi isn't a fast computer, and it has only 1 GB RAM. It is inexpensive though. Here it can run Android 7.1 (Nougat) using only open-source software, so there's no Google Play store. However, the screenshots show an alternative to F-Droid (store with few apps) called Yalp. Many apps are noted to rely on Google services, which is how Google restricts otherwise open-source software. Performance is pretty good. I've got Netflix and Dropbox working well.

The July edition of the Raspberry Pi magazine, The MagPi, has a feature on installing Android from emteria.OS on the Raspberry Pi 3. I've been playing around with it for a little while using a touchscreen. I'm really impressed. It works well.

How the US has prepared for nuclear Armageddon – in pictures:
Reminds me of playing Fallout 3, and how crazy it is. Kind of wonder what sort of places remain in secret too.

This Convextion aka E.R.P. mix that I made 5 years ago still holds up. One of the best US producers to ever live. No joke. If you haven't checked out E.R.P., do yourself a favor and start here. All of the tracks I used for the mix are available on most popular download sites.

I always think of 'Mathematische Modelle', from the Der Zyklus EP, II, as Heinrich Mueller's homage to Kraftwerk. This four track EP was originally released in 2001 on International Deejay Gigolo Records. This track and 'Elektronisches Zeitecho' were paired as a 12" in 2013 by Clone Aqualung.

Clone Records have posted a pretty cool photo of the DAT which contained Transllusion's A Moment of Insanity EP. I wonder how many more tapes of unreleased music they found in his studio? It does appear we can expect more new old music by James Stinson on Clone Aqualung in the future.
