should be a fun night…come on down…i may even have some new t-shirts for sale…fresh off the press

hello!
yes…that’s my laptop in the sun.
last weekend I went off to Croatia (namely Zadar) to play a lovely festival called Electric Elephant.
As clever as I am I still managed to bring out to the sweltering heat my coat, my thickest blackest t-shirts, socks, jeans and no sun tan lotion.
what i should have brought – shorts, flip-flops, thin white t-shirts, and lotion.
i did however manage to bring my sunglasses, but they’re completely pointless as I’m virtually blind without my spectacles.
I played on the first night (friday) accompanied by Jess Bryant. great sound not so great crowd, but the beautiful surroundings certainly made up for it.
Saw some great acts, some I knew, some I was seeing for the first time. Magic Arm, Super Imposers, Adem, Pictish Trail, King Creosote, Liz Green…but what has to be my highlight was watching Denis Jones. His set was amazing joined with the great sound it floored me.
i was expecting to see some guys called Quiet Village whose album is unbelievably good. they unfortunately had laptop troubles so i took that as my sign to go and have some pasta.
during the evenings it was live music and djs…during the daytime…it was remix, remix, remix…I’d been asked to reedit a remix of Red Light Company’s Scheme Eugene and also bust out a Sam Isaac Remix. It was bizzare sitting in that kind of climate and remixing. I felt like i should be outside frolicing.
I’ll upload the remixes when I get the finished mastered ones.

Hello
check out this nice review from Ned.
Love the picture they used as well…makes me look really cool and dark…which as we all know is not true…i’m more light and fluffy…much like a bunny or another whimsical beast.
also it’s No Pins Allowed which is being released by Moshi, but I guess that’s what you get from having two singles with similar titles…oh the hilarious concequences!
I should have my own sitcom!…although it would be more situation than comedy….
okay…bye
Right…I have a massive problem with ad creatives stealing ideas off people. It’s just not right. everyone knows where they come from…like the vitamin c advert where they pilage the ok go video that uses the treadmills.
the new evil today is this
I know by having a link to this on my page i’m kind of doing their job for them, but it angers me so much.
i’ve worked with creatives before and i must say the majority work hard for their job, but it’s ads like this that show up the lazy ones.
also…while i’m on a rant…what was that cadbury’s advert about…you know…the one after the gorilla where they race loads of trucks to queens ‘don’t stop me now’…you know you don’t understand it either…admit it!!
