It was a great moment ( I vividly remember hearing Pole for the first time, years ago, on Mixing It) and couldn't have come at a better time, as I had had a miserable day, culminating in me getting home from work to realise I'd left my keys at home and was locked out, and then

Had a great time with some old friends at FWD last friday. Youngsta + D double E = me very happy. Hope it makes the FWD podcast.Anyways, on a totally separate note here's something else that makes me happy. Twisted Bashment with a vocoder. Yep. I know that on occasion the man's sexual politics are all wrong, but this track is mindblowingly good, and unexpectedly totally wonky. Ripped amateurishly

This one is long dark nights of sleeplessness and half-sleep on stokes croft. The starts and ends of things. Mostly the ends.Anyways, one third of Labradford and a guy from Stars of the lid teamed up to make this wonderful thing back in 2000. They called themselves Aix em Klemm and I'm sad to say I've never heard or seen anything else from these two together, apart from this beautiful 6 track

Had a cracking time playing at Wonktronica in Elephant & Castle on friday night. Hello to all of you I met down there.Me and my polska friendmet up with the Hopkinson brotherswho were there to chaperone mr Hopkinson's computer who was also on the bill. A beautiful, emotive performance, as always...It was about 4am by the time I played, but by that time it had stopped being a long day after work,

music to soundtrack falling asleep is a really important thing to me. A good bedtime cd could get played everynight for anything up to half a year in some cases. It could be anything I suppose (I remember a 3 week period when I was playing Lightning bolt to fall to asleep to, but really really quietly, at such low levels it became somehow soothing) but I generally find that I most fall in love

Yesterday the test pressing arrived. A strange and joyous full circle - to play the vinyl versions of the tracks through the speakers they were originally recorded on, all those months ago, in that little room, my beloved echo chamber. and to play them at the wrong speed as well, just for the fun of it. Suddenly it's very real...

Went to the luminaire in kilburn yesterday to meet up with papa chiz and some bristolians who were tour managing thee mighty Hawk and a Hacksaw, who really blew me away, much more so than last time. Just accordian and violin and some amazing chemistry. I swear there was a bulgarian tune in there somewhere, something in 7/4 that's in that wonderful melodic place that's both happy and sad, major

…for 5 minutes and they close everything down. Sad days for bristol residents as I hear of the closing down of both Replay park street (just leaving a fopp on a street that used to be a great place to go - now just a tacky strip of identikit bars, cafés and chainstores - thanks Bristol City Council) and the Thekla. Not the greatest music venue in Bristol, but how often did you get to go and see

Spent sunday at Snorkel Studios where the very nice Frank recorded me playing wonky trombone for three album cuts. That's the damn thing finished now - except for the final final no-more-changing-your-mind tracklist, of course...Anyways, when I wasn't playing the trombone, I was busy marvelling at all the vintage gear kicking about - moog rogue, arpaxxe, a wonderful tape echo that looked super

It's not often you hear the wonderful resonance FM mentioned in the media, let alone on Radio 4. But nevertheless this morning whilst I was answering back to the radio in my grumpy morning style, I can't believe Tony Blair and the rest of his government are doing nothing. nothing. For someone who is supposedly some kind of born again opus dei christian, he seems to have a blank memory spot when

Went and mastered the first single on tuesday, with the lovely Pete at Heathmans - certainly the most professional looking mastering studio I've been too. Pete was brilliant - he seemd a little puzzled at first but got what I was trying to do and managed to cut both sides at 45rpm. With a lot of bass.geeky equipment boy that I am, I took a load of pictures of the lathe (hope I didn't embarass you

went to the astoria last night to finally catch animal collective.wonderful how the songs stretched out and wandered and weaved and all. Love the singing and live effects on the singing.

Another cracking DMZ, sound was the best it's been since leaving 3rd bass, I reckon. Atmosphere amazing as always...Chef kicked off with a greatest hits style set (wierd to hear 'midnight request line' three times before midnight in one form or another!) and some amazing blends - he's an inspiration. And then Benga stepped up with a massive half hour of new stuff - quite straight down the line, a

Andy Freer–'Super Galaxo'Don’t know much about Andy Freer, never seen anything else by him since. I heard he was 19 when he went into the studio to do this. Maybe if I’d done this track I’d be happy just to draw a line and stop making music – this is p-u-r-e-j-o-y. I deny anyone not to envy the jigsaw-perfect drop. Get ready to whoosh…From the Newtown comp on Ai.Lightning Bolt - “f.f.”And, well,

Some 4/4 business today. First up my favourite UR track (not said lightly) the wonderfully-titled "abandoned building in mono" by Perception (probably Mad Mike’s auntie’s pseudonym or something) which strangely joins the dots with Leeds’ mighty The Remote Viewer, for me anyways.Here’s an amazing site of abandoned buildings (can anyone read this? or maybe on reflection I don’t want to know the

a weekend in the echo chamber, using every wire and channel and adaptor and socket and pedal I have at the moment, everything is at it's limit...Here's another one from 1994. I cannot underplay the impact this track had on me - dubwise but (at the time) ultra modern. I heard it out oh somewhere and then those phased trumpets were earworming their way around my internal jukebox for days. Of course
