hello

KITCHEN & THE PLASTIC SPOONS

Experimental synth punk band from Sweden. 1980. This is made, and I am born.

Veronica Lipgloss &the evil Eyes

I think I've mentioned that I lived in San Francisco in the early 2000's. Got to see this band a few times. Just had a flashback. Sudden pangs and hunger to listen to them. Feed me.

MEKANIK KOMMANDO- Microbes

Totally amazing track.
80's minimal synth/new wave band from the Netherlands.
Sounds like a precursor to Devo's 'Mongaloid', perhaps?

DRUMS OF DEATH- Fierce!

Killer. Making me rethink everything.

JESSE SAUNDERS- On and On
One of the first house tracks ever ('84)
I've re-fallen in love with this, and it's made me find my comfort zone/ room in (the) house.
More about that soon.
For now, just appreciate this 7:45 minutes of pure genius.



ADONIS- No Way Back
A few years later ('88), this! This song is my mantra. Keep it simple.

These two songs pretty much sum up where I'm at right now, in terms of house music.
It's Valentines day, and I've fallen in love again with these <3 p="">

Nearly 2 years sober

I'm approaching my 2 years of sobriety.
Life is precious. That is all.

SCISSORS, PAPER, STOP

how frisbee's came into being...

TARA CROSS+ALGEBRA SUICIDE

TARA CROSS- 'No More Drugs'
Desperate pleas and synthetic peace.



ALGEBRA SUICIDE- 'Agitation'
minimalist mute hearts and spoken spine snaps.

Some collected caricatures I've drawn

SELES/GRAF

The two greatest players, ever, in women's tennis. Seles, the first loud grunter, with her double handed forehand, Graf, with that graceful backhand and constant finesse. These two women were artists on the court. A great rivalry, unprecedented today.
Watching the Australian Open Women's final last night made me nostalgic. Women's tennis has been quite flat and inconsistent over the past six or seven years. So it was good to see a strong, close match.
Witness the fitness below, Graf VS Seles '93 Australian Open final, back when the court was green, not blue.
Also, one year, my family drove to Melbourne from Sydney, to watch the Open, and my sister caught Steffi Graf's towel when she threw it into the crowd.

CHRISTOF GLOWALLA

Rare synth wave jams from DIY '80s musician Christof Glowalla, a young German armed with just a single synth, a 4 track, and a super primitive drum machine.

Silent Servant

Happy new year!  I'm still settling into '13. Nice number.
This was one of my favourite records of last year. Negative Fascination, by Silent Servant, released on Hospital Productions. I endorse pretty much everything they release. Dark on repeat. now repeat. Coda.
