Monthly Notes

What I’ve been making, playing, and thinking about — straight from the studio and the stage.

  • One more month…

    Already December! Eek! I’m a bit behind my targeted track completion rate for November…for all the right reasons – I got to perform live at 3 gigs last month. And because I always try introduce some new music into every live gig, I end up spending too much time on the prep. But hey, it’s…

  • Living it – Live!

    So, 18 months ago I got to play my first ever proper live set at Techno-Live @Club 77, and had a total ball. 12 months after that I got a message from one of the people in the crowd, saying that he had seen me play, and that I had inspired him to get it…

  • Back in the Studio

    Yes! October finally saw me back in the studio and getting back into some level of music production routine. After some great times playing at Burning Man and Burning Seed, it has been a nice change to just be producing again. Here’s the new music from October, a techy bunch of tracks…maybe with some burner…

  • Burnt out!…or just smouldering?

    So, I’m just back from Burning Seed (Aussie regional burn), and feeling fired up (ok, ok…no more fire puns), but also a little shattered after the last two events. Burning Seed was very different to Burning Man. Smaller and way less intense, but way more social with a much more integrated community and definitely not…

  • Burning….Man!

    So here I am at San Francisco airport with another 2 hours to spare and thinking back on the last 2 weeks and what it all meant. Burning Man….conjures up all sorts of preconceptions. Some of them spot-on, many way off in their pre-judgement. I signed up for this journey of craziness 50% ‘cos I…

  • July Monthly Notes – Ciao Sicily

    And so my 3 month Sicilian sabbatical comes to an end. I got plenty of new music done in May and June with my #20TracksIn20 project. I slipped a little in June so only ended up with 37 new tracks from the 2 months, of which about 14 I’ve deemed worthwhile taking further. 3 of…

  • Halfway through 2019…and?

    Wow, at the 50% mark already for the year. A bit of a false yardstick really…the passing of the year, but still one I find useful to see how I’m tracking on all those things I want to achieve this year musically. So, it’s going quite well. I have have played at 3 private parties,…

  • A month in Sicily and what to show for it??

    Well, apart from a few extra kgs that even regular yoga and running can’t seem to shake….quite a lot. Firstly there’s the 20 tracks that I have produced each (working) day, and live streamed to Facebook, YouTube, Periscope and Instagram.  Click on the image on the left to check some of them out on YouTube.  …

  • What the hell is #20TracksIn20?

    #20TracksIn20 is the creative process I am following whilst hanging out in Sicily for 3 months.  The purpose is to squeeze as much creativity and musical output out of the next three months, and is a derivative of what I started in Berlin last year.  It goes something like this: Every work day I… Start…

  • Via in Sicilia

    Or ‘off to Sicily’!! I wish my Italian was at the level where I knew how to translate that without Google translate… So my studio has been reduced to this, and I’m off for 3 months of Mediterranean-inspired music creation….oh, and also a few drops of Malvasia and the odd plate of pasta alla Norma.…
