Last night I dreamt I was in a time travelling football team captained by Mario Balotelli. I could delete peoples individual memories by shooting them in the head with a special gun.
It was awesome.
I hope I get to see part 2 tonight.
I can’t get used to this inverted scrolling since I upgraded to Lion OSX.
I could just click the button to put it back the old way, but I like to do what apple tells me.

Whilst procrasting at work I came across this website. I’m getting flashbacks from being on the road with Conquering Animal Sound last year.

LIST TIME
The year is coming to a close, so everyone is making lists. So without further ado, here is a list of my top 5 new discoveries of 2011.
5. Born Gold
Born Gold (formerly Gobble Gobble) are an electro pop band from Canada. It is very difficult to describe this music. It is pop. It is really catchy. But it is also very, very messed up. Distorted/modulated vocal melodies and mega glitchy beats...

When Nick Clegg isn’t breaking all his promises, he actually talks sense.

My debut release is a split e.p with The Japanese War Effort (yeah, that tall hipster guy with the hat), its available on Gerry Loves Records. You can listen and buy here. LISTEN & BUY. LISTEN & BUY. LISTEN & BUY. etc.
Much love x
Musical Composition
It must be remembered that denying spaces, especially if they are multi-timbral (or even 21st-century), should be avoided. Except in rare cases (for example, when you are recreating a particularly dramatic set of modulations), contemporary composers of ‘texture-music’ should avoid the use of non-linearities.

disaster
So my external hard-drive has crashed. I’ve lost a great deal of my samples and various bits and pieces I’ve been working on for the last 3 years. Not to mention all of my movies/music. I’msadfeelingabitnotgoodcryboowhytimeforafreshstartohno.

Björk doing crazy and wonderful things with an inside-out approach to technology/music.
It was made of six things: the noise a cat makes in foot-fall, the beard of a woman, the roots of a rock, the sinews of a bear, the breath of a fish, and the spittle of a bird.
I managed to go to Glasgow 3 times yesterday…… Maybe its time Field Mouse tried living in the city?
On one of the these trips to Glasgow I witnessed a rather random/unusual/terrifying taxi parade. 30 or 40 taxis covered in balloons and peeping their horns prevented me from crossing the road for a good 10-15 minutes. If anyone can explain this madness, please do.
I’ve started...

Stage invasion with Odd Future at Primavera Sound = Crazy good fun. After recording this rather brief video, I ran as fast as I could through the crowd to join the onstage madness.
