da return

yar!
not too much to report at the moment, just a few bits and bobs..

Stray Ghost 'Losthilde' artwork is still being worked on, but should still be ready for sale by early next week. I'll get the mp3s up on the site for sale too and up on lastfm.

Got the flyers back for Towards The Singularity which look amazing! I haven't started promoting it properly yet, as i think i started too early on the Funckarma show - i think its best to wait till just a few weeks before hand. One of the bands who are playing, Fighting Kites, also have an upcoming show at Bardens on august 5th, supporting Nisennenmondai, a japanese noise band made up of three girls. Its an Upset The Rhythm show, so should definitely be a good one.

Got two tracks from Ruaridh/Village Orchestra for his upcoming split 12" with Konx-Om-Pax - they are truly fcking awesome! I need to mail Tom/Konx-Om and see what his timeline is for his own tracks and get a date together for that.

Been speaking with a couple of new artists about collaborating on projects - i'm *really* excited about them, but i shan't spoil the surprise until we have some more details worked out!

I haven't been buying any new music in the past week, so nothing much to report or review on. I should get some new stuff this week in preparation for me and Mat DJing at the 808State gig next week tho.

Ah, one musical thing to check out - my friend Lisa, from the Wire magazine, put together a mix in three parts for Steve Barker's 'On The Wire' show on BBC Radio Lancashire - check her blog post over at The Mire for full tracklisting and a link to listen/download..
