Photographic Pictures


After the show we got taken to an awesome after party discotheque by the show's promoter David, who looked after us all so well while we were in Madrid. I had such a great night!!! You can just make out David, Sefa and Malins dancing about like crazed teenagers, and so was I which is why the video is so rubbish See the comms and check this video out:

Striped Light


Obelisk


Check out this unofficial video for Gazelle Twin's song Obelisk. Its based on the utterly beguiling 1973 film "Holy Mountain" by Alejandro Jodorowsky

Flat Battery



My entire studio stopped working temporarily this week. At the heart of the studio is my digital console (Mackie DXB) which routes all the audio signals to and from the computer and the patch bays and then to all the equipment. And at the heart of the console is a tiny little battery and it transpires that this battery had gone flat and therefore my studio stopped working! Because of one tiny battery!

Anyway, thanks to a call out from a Mackie tech everything is back to normal. So I had a nice evening with Phil and Pete just listening to music all night. I had forgotten how good it is listening to OTHER peoples music
