Weatherall Makes My Day

Whilst cleaning the house this morning, I decided to get a much needed musical fix from Andrew Weatherall.

I'm a big fan of the Get The Curse podcasts, as they get some great DJ mixes up, but this was the first time I'd had a chance to listen to the Andrew Weatherall - Rotters Golf Club one from early June.

When I was putting some serious elbow grease into waxing my kitchen table, at about 27mins in I was pleasantly surprised to hear a recent remix I did of Falko Brocksieper's 'Lament' come in.

Particularly ironic as one of the main reasons I was checking it out was to get some inspiration for the long list of remixes I'm about to embark on...

The start of the rest of my life

I've just finished my second album "Songs Without Words Part 1", and am coming to terms with having a life again. I've spent the last 9 months holed up alone in the studio, and am now wondering what's next. Its been a difficult birth...

So I now have an opportunity to start this blog, which I hope will give an insight into what makes someone who writes and performs their own tunes tick. I'll be posting new tracks, videos, mixes as well as taking a camera on the road with me to put up anything that I find interesting, annoying or ridiculous.

Here's a link to a 30 minute DJ mix I did for the Om and DJDownload Sonar event. It's a sneak peek at some club remixes of tracks from the album as well as some of my recent remixes. Be quick as its only available to download free until 17th July:
