For reasons that will be explained privately, I am desperate for any older men into strangling a young small (5’3″) guy with sexy feet. I would love to see him in a noose, naked and barefoot, pulled up off his toes. His feet would look hot as his toes pointed and spread struggling … then went limp. Please do not contact me if you are younger than 55 years old. Don’t take offense to that, it’s just what I like. I am willing to pay much money.

My name is Sergei. I am a slim, fully smooth Russian guy in Germany since 2023 with post-acne traces on face.

If you’d be willing to let me stay the night at your place, please let me know:
What time do you usually go to bed?
Is there a separate bed for me?
Are you looking for BDSM and/or sex? (Yes / No / Doesn’t matter)

I ride a road bike all over Europe. Trips usually last 4–21 days, covering 100–150 km per day. I travel with almost nothing: just a power bank, ID, money, a repair kit, toothbrush, sunscreen, and razor. Cycling gear must be washed by hand in the sink every day.

Sexually what I seek is being fully bound, experiencing pain, breathplay, disorientation, facefuck, fuck, and losing control over my body for hours or even days.

I find whitewater kayaking similar to BDSM. In kayaking, you decide when to start down the river, and once you begin, you often can’t change your mind. I like BDSM the same way: a master nudges me toward losing control over my body, and when I’m ready and agree, they take that control, leaving me only to endure and convince myself that I enjoy it.

I used to engage in philosophical conversations. I haven’t tried this in English yet, but maybe that will happen for the first time.

Anyone know of any others?

There’s too much cum in it. When he started pouring it on my face, I thought the fire department was putting out a fire. Definitely too much, I was soaked.

Just to be clear … you can fist him to the wrist, he will jack off on your face, and if you’re not careful you can hear at great length why he thinks les Bleus didn’t win the World Cup, and that’s it.

Don’t expect to have a stimulating conversation. I fisted him, and he only said one word, and that was after a long time.

I was wondering if anyone knows any cheap, sleazy motels in NYC where staff doesn’t bother/cares who enters, ideally with exterior corridors which makes it way easier to avoid detection.

I’ve got this junkie teen I want to take to one of them, fuck his brains out, give him a fatal overdose and take off without worrying.

Does anyone remember Jets Motor Inn (139-06 Queens Blvd, Queens)? Dumpy furniture, old bath fixtures, hot & cold running roaches. When guys wanted to snuff their tricks in the 80’s that was the place to go.

hugecockintown – July 13, 2026
The Senton Hotel on W 27th in NYC. It’s about as sleazy as it gets. Full of junkies and used rigs. Don’t expect a fully functional bathroom. Just dress and pose the corpse before you split and you should be good.

Hello, im Lea (not real name) a fTm boy from Berlin (yes really) and i am 18 years old. Starting from the 13th of July until the 19th of July i will be home alone without anyone else. No Parents (my mom and dad are on vacation in Monaco) and no siblings (only child). I stay behind because i have fucked up with my grades (i am 18 years old and still in school, i know it’s weird but yes it’s true) so i have to stay behind and study. But since in that time i will be ovulating, and my biggest fetishes are cheating, breeding, freeuse and getting pregnant by strangers, I am looking for some crazy guys that are willing to fuck me senseless for a whole week, abuse my holes and rest in pieces my cervix until my womb is filled with strangers cum and my ovum is penetrated beyond saving.

For those wondering, i turned 18 in March. Yes i will keep the child if it happens. Yes the person in the pictures is me.

If there are any questions feel free to ask, i will choose 7-14 ppl that get my adress.

Gangbanging a trans boy helps me a lot to get out of my head and to calm down if/when I’m anxious or nervous. It also helps me because I’m really insecure about my body and my looks .. but when I’m with other guys fucking a trans boy I feel so much better about myself already. It’s like magic :3

My son last night I heard him being fisted by his boyfriend who happens to be the hottest twink I’ve ever seen. I couldn’t believe it but I knew those noises and his screeching! It went on for hours. I know I should act all serious parental since he’s my biological son, but I got so turned on I ejaculated in my pants.

Is it even technically possible to tickle someone to death? I suppose he could become so overstimulated he has a stroke or heart attack?

p.s. Hey. ** Adem Berbic, Well, I’m probably emotionally weird, so I don’t know if my makeup is any kind of standard. I just feel like the biggest things I feel defy theatricality. They sink deeper like broken submarines. ** cmr, Hello, cmr! ‘The first instrument ever made with an identity crisis’: that’s so apt and so beautiful. Nice. Good question, I would guess either laziness or lack of an adventurous nature? Oh, okay, I’ll remember to hit you up by email with my email address before I step too far away from the laptop. Thank you so much! Obviously hang out here if/whenever the mood strikes. ** _Black_Acrylic, ‘Ladytron’ the song not the band for sure. Although I do love ‘Destroy Everything You Touch’. Right, the screening is tonight. I’m so happy you’re going and that’s awesome of your bro. I hope you like it. Let me know what the screening was like if you feel like it. The people running it seem super cool and great and seem like they’re trying to make it special. ** Tosh Berman, Lonely is really right. I think that quality might even be its biggest attraction for me. How great is ‘We Love You’. The best Stones song ever in my opinion. And they hate it and practically disown it. Bores. Thank you muchly, Tosh. ** Carsten, Hi. ‘The Sluts’ wasn’t published in Germany until 2021. Yes, the book is on the Index, so it’s a dead duck. No, I’m not thrilled by it even secretly. I’ve dealt with the outlaw status bullshit since the beginning, and I don’t find that interesting at all. To fight back on the Index thing would involve an expensive court case, and I urged my publisher not to pursue that because it could cause financial harm to him, the publishing house, and the other books he publishes while being unlikely to be a winner. Our recent heatwave only lasted one day so far, and it’s weirdly very liveable outside at the moment. All the luck with yours. I haven’t seen ‘Deliverance’ in a billion years, but I remember thinking it had surprising power. Probably best to stay away and retain that memory, I guess. ** Steve, I had friends who had and played mellotron back in the 70s, and, yeah, it was a very labor intensive venture. But so worth it. As I said, ‘The Sluts’ was only published there in 2021. No, it’s totally banned. Can’t be sold or advertised there in any capacity. I’m very happy if my gig helped inform your show. Awesome, chuffed. ** laura w., I haven’t looked into what else has been banned there. It’s weird. In France, they just make publishers shrink wrap the ‘dangerous’ books and put an 16+ only limit on who can buy them. And it’s super rare that books ever get that treatment. Literary transgression is long respected here, obviously. Oh, gosh, I’m so sorry to hear that about your current inner battles. I have friends on medication who say it helps a lot, but I get that it’s a worrisome decision. I hope your today presents you with a discernible upswing. How are you feeling now? ** Fionn, Hi, F. I used t be really in love with the Red House Painters album with the roller coaster on the cover. I haven’t much liked Mark Kozelek’s post-RHP stuff. Do you? Yeah, the 90s 4AD design language was so good. To the point where I’d basically buy almost anything they released. Nice venture, yours. ** Thom, Yeah, the time difference is crazy: 9 hours. The guaranteed jet lag has stopped me from going back to LA for a visit any number of times. True, Incredible String Band so great and singular. I love the ‘Hangman’s Beautiful Daughter’ -> ‘U’ period the best, but I do like some of the later, more ‘rock’ albums too like ‘Liquid Acrobat as Regards the Air’. I love the first solo albums by Robin Williamson ‘Myrrh’ and Mike Heron ‘Smiling Men with Bad Reputations’. Sad how Tangerine Dream kind of zizzed out later, yeah. Lisa Germano is someone I’ve always known about, but I don’t believe I’ve ever actually heard her music, very strangely. Any particular place that you recommend I start? It has cooled down, whew, thanks. Are you surrounded by atmospheric temperance? Is it still smokey? ** HaRpEr //, As I’m sure I’ve said, writing the first draft is by far the worst part of writing a novel for me. I mean the rush and concentration is great, but stopping myself from slowing down to fix things is really tough. ‘The Soft Bulletin’ is such a great album. Their best, I think. Although I am very fond of ‘Transmissions from the Satellite Heart’. ** Bill, I think you did alert me to that clip before, or I know it somehow. So nice. Chris Corsano seems like he’s everywhere, playing with everybody. A good thing. Rain sounds dreamy. We desperately need some here. It’s weird: in the ‘old’ not so long ago days it practically rained in Paris every day even at the height of summer. ** DonW, Those would have been some very cool grandparents if that’s true. Fascism seems to be alive and well in Germany in various capacities, yeah. Good old City Lights. Happy day, bud. ** voskat, Excellent description of the sonic qualities of the mellotron there. Kudos. Oh, gosh, all my best to Laura, and, Jesus, wtf! That line by her is a total keeper, I agree. Context be damned. ‘The Soft Bulletin’! I did a post about the Lips ages ago with whatever I could find about the Zaireeka experience. I’ll go try to find it. Heads up! ** Okay. If you didn’t already realise that today is the last day of the month, now you do. See you tomorrow.

Day of the Mellotron *

* (restored)

 

‘I am willing to claim that almost every exotic instrument played by whomever in the Rolling Stones, and recorded after they entered the Olympic Studios in November 1966, actually were played on the keyboard of the Mellotron. Whether it was a trombone, saxophone, French Accordion, you name it. Even the much debated lead guitar on Let It Loose. Yes, and even the percussion track on Sympathy For The Devil. When the Rolling Stones left Olympic Studios for the basement of Nellcote, the Mellotron was gone. Left behind. Because Brian Jones was dead. Nobody needed the sounds of the sixties anymore. If it, the Mellotron, turns up on later albums, then you know the track itself probably was recorded in the sixties.’ — godgammeldags.nu

 


Inside the Mellotron

 

____
Intro

‘The Mellotron is an electronic musical instrument invented around 1960 to provide the sounds of violins, cellos, flutes, choirs, horns, pretty much anything, from a keyboard. Given the technology of the day, the reasonable way to do this was with strips of magnetic tape. So the Mellotron uses a strip of magnetic tape, a pinch roller, tape head, pressure pad, and a rewind mechanism for each note on the keyboard. ‘The heart of the instrument is a bank of parallel linear magnetic audio tape strips. Playback heads underneath each key enable the playing of pre-recorded sounds. Each of the tape strips has a playing time of approximately eight seconds, after which the tape comes to a dead stop and rewinds to the start position. ‘A major advantage of using tape strips, as opposed to tape loops / cassettes (cf the Birotron) is that the Mellotron can reproduce the attack and decay of the instruments recorded on the tape. ‘A consequence of the eight second limit on the duration of each note is that if the player wants to play chords that last longer than eight seconds, he/she has to release different notes in sequence in a process that has been compared to a spider crawling across the keyboard. ‘To our modern day technological sensibilities this cumbersome mechanical contraption seems kludgy as can be, especially you’re watching the tape rewind operation, but the fact is that no modern technology keyboard can come close to the quality of presence so characteristic of the Mellotron sound. Why is this? Because the tape playback mechanism is the musical instrument. It matters less what is recorded on the tape. ‘Among the early Mellotron owners were Princess Margaret, Peter Sellers, King Hussein of Jordan and Scientology founder L. Ron Hubbard. The instrument was, and still is, a centerpiece of the psychedelic rock, art rock, and progressive rock movements.’ — Don’s Mellotron Page

‘The Beatles were introduced to the Mellotron by Mike Pindar of the Moody Blues who are thought to be the first rock band to employ the instrument in a popular song. The Beatles’ first use of Mellotron sounds was on the song Tomorrow Never Knows where they used reel to reel recorders to record Mellotron brass and string sounds which, along with other sounds, were then brought into the studio. The heavy weight of the Mellotron prevented the machine from easily being transported. The Beatles hired in a machine and subsequently (and more prominently) used it on their single “Strawberry Fields Forever” (recorded November-December 1966). The Beatles continued to compose and record with various Mellotrons for the albums “Sgt. Peppers Lonely Hearts Club Band”, “Magical Mystery Tour”, and “The Beatles” (White Album). ‘Other artists utilizing the Mellotron on hit records in this period included The Zombies (“Changes”, “Care Of Cell 44”, “Hung Up On A Dream”), Donovan (“Celeste”, “Breezes of Patchule”), Manfred Mann (several Mike D’abo-era recordings, including “So Long Dad”, “There Is A Man” and “Semi-Detached Suburban Mr. James”), The Rolling Stones (“2000 Light Years from Home”, “We Love You”, “Stray Cat Blues”), Deep Purple (“Anthem”), The Bee Gees (“World”, “Every Christian Lion-Hearted Man Will Show You” & “My Thing”), Traffic (“House for Everyone”, “Hole In My Shoe”), Pink Floyd (“A Saucerful of Secrets”, “See-Saw”, “Julia Dream”, “Atom Heart Mother” and “Sysyphus”), Procol Harum (“Magdalene (My Regal Zonophone)”), The Pretty Things’ S.F. Sorrow, Cream’s “Badge”, “Anyone for Tennis”, The Left Banke’s “Myrah”, Marvin Gaye’s Mercy Mercy Me (The Ecology) (Chamberlin), Nilsson’s “The Moonbeam Song”, and The Kinks’ (“Phenomenal Cat,” “Autumn Almanac,” “Sitting By The Riverside,” “All Of My Friends Were There,” “Animal Farm,” “Starstruck,” “Days,”), David Bowie’ “Space Oddity”. ‘The Mellotron was crucial to shaping the sound of the progressive rock genre, and it featured in the sound and recordings of more bands of that era than not. Among the more prominent examples are King Crimson, Yes, Led Zeppelin, Rush, Genesis, Hawkwind, ELP, and Tangerine Dream, but even such unexpected bands and artists of the period as Lynyrd Skynyrd, Neil Young, and Bob Dylan used the instrument in their recordings. After all but dying out during the punk and New Wave era, the instrument had a great rebirth of popularity in the ’90s that continues until today. Some of the recent and current artists who have used the Mellotron extensively include Guns N’ Roses, The Mars Volta, Black Moth Super Rainbow, Sigur Rós, Dinosaur Jr, Pulp, U2, Primus, The Smashing Pumpkins, Marilyn Manson, Counting Crows, Oasis, Barenaked Ladies, Sheryl Crow, Tori Amos, Lenny Kravitz, Nine Inch Nails, Stone Temple Pilots, Modest Mouse, Ayreon, Muse, Pearl Jam, R.E.M., Red Hot Chili Peppers, Soundgarden, Screaming Trees, Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers, Prick, Grandaddy, The Brian Jonestown Massacre, The Charlatans, Paul Weller, Radiohead, Porcupine Tree, Anekdoten, Air, and Opeth.’ — 120 Years of Electronic Music

p.s. Hey. ** Dominik, Hi!!! Our heatwave, or the worst part of it, was a one day (yesterday) affair, we’re told, so I have signed off on love doing his AC cosplay in your apartment starting now. If love or you remember, how was ‘Leviticus’? Have a great long weekend with your pal hopefully without the sun’s excessive interference. Love feeling a bit flabbergasted as he was just informed yesterday that his friend DC’s novel ‘The Sluts’ has just been banned in Germany by something called The Federal Agency for Child and Youth Protection in the Media, G. ** _Black_Acrylic, Thank you, B. ** Thom, Hi. Sorry, yeah, once I start writing the p.s. I stop looking for new comments. Bad habit. A fellow fake food lover! Mark Mothersbaugh of Devo has one of the world’s largest collections of fake food. Makes a weird kind of sense, no? Yes, what Pinget and you said, precisely. I spent more than two years devising the structure of my novel ‘The Marbled Swarm’, and I’ve reached the conclusion that no one will ever find it and mentally map it out, but c’est la. Lenora Carrington’s short stories are so good, so much better than her paintings. And I have a lifelong big love for Incredible String Band. Back in the day, I saw them live maybe 9 times. All of which is to say, great day you had there. I mostly hid from the heat. I think it’s fading out now. Enjoy everything’s totality. ** jay, Hi. I certainly don’t have anywhere close to a decent understanding of German culture apart from some of their films and literature, but the Syberberg films still cast a spell, I think. Kudos and gratitude again for your playing and piano. I love all those pauses and thinking and lingering and so on in music or, well, in anything so much. Those points in Zac’s and my films are often the most successful (to me). Any temptation on your part to play a Mellotron? Pretty different can of worms, I guess. ** Adem Berbic, I guess when people use the word ‘overwhelmed’ they mean a tidal wave kind of effect. The emotion that ‘overwhelms’ me the most by far is anxiety, which is not very show-offy. In my case at least. I think what you describe makes sense. It’s easily imaginable. ** Steeqhen, Hey there! As to your question, no, I don’t think I ever feel like my mind has any control over the reality in which I am a smart part. Except when I’m writing, but that’s not real, or I guess I mean when I’m writing I feel like actual reality is on vacation. Which isn’t to say I think a mind can’t control reality, but then you get to the whole ‘what is reality’ question, which I never think I can answer. Happy b’day to your friend, and advance happy b’day to you. I do think that one can decide an occasion marks the ending of something and the beginning of something new/else. So go for it. ** Steve, That is sadly very hard to imagine. Oh, I really enjoyed your latest ‘RNR’ episode. So much I didn’t know. I was particularly pulled into Philip Golub, Pylar, Psycroptic, and Kelela so far. That Haru Matsui track I chose is by far my favorite from his album, yeah. I keep hitting it, but not so much the rest. ** HaRpEr //, Ostensibly, being ‘in a place with it that is unlike anything I’ve felt when writing before’ sounds very positive. Yeah, I tried hard in ‘The Sluts’ to deal with the internet as just a very particular, labyrinthine, unreliable space. ** laura w, Yes, they do. It’s a lifesaver. After8 is among Paris’s total musts when you come. Agreed, about the Tulathimutte, and, having done an event with him and heard him talk, I think he would agree. I’m so sorry about the declining in your head. Maybe ease back on the caffeine? I’m a fan of chewing gum, which has a curious concentrating, relaxing effect? My friend and I had to bail yesterday because it was just too hot. But today seems okay so far. There’s a cloud cover and everything. ** Bill, At least when I saw ‘Our Hitler’ projected ages ago, they had two intermissions, if that helps. Really nice about the gig. Paris is surprisingly good at that sort of thing. Granted, Les Instants Chavirés is where about 80% of them happen. ** Nicholas., I couldn’t not notice. I didn’t mean the art was bad, I guess I meant that maybe it set up high expectations or something? I can’t remember. My end … just post-heatwave for the moment and gonna see friends and do/eat dumb shit at the summer fete foraine, I think? Nothing too heavy in theory. xo -> tu. ** Right. Today I have a revived a very, very old post about my all-time favorite musical instrument, the magical Mellotron! See you tomorrow.
