Yes, I am moving house, to a delightful (if floody) village near Worcester. I am not writing this to boast or anything, I am writing it because this represents a very important step for me creatively. I finally have some decent room for making music and a great shed for making my odd musical instruments.
I can now practice my Melt Banana support gig at full pelt, and I can get on much better with building my midi-octopus for Futuresonic. Bingo!
I will be leaving for a church in Wirksworth later today, and Sonic Weekend 4. I am so looking forward to my second Sonic Weekend. The last one was just amazing. A mixture of inspirations, challenges, great music, great people, laughs and beer.

Yes, it really is THAT good!
I’m really pleased to announce that I (along with the mighty Centrifuge crew) will be appearing at this year’s Futuresonic festival. We are going to be doing a series of workshops and performances. I am collaborating with Scrubber Fox on something truly mentalist. He’s building some custom controllers for audio and visuals, and I am building a ‘midi-octopus’.
This is all gonna cost so if anyone knows any funding channels, or potential sponsors, we’d love to know.
Hope to see you in Manchester in May!
