Film Score
I Recently Scored a Short film called “The Morning After” Click here to view movie.
It’s been nominated for many short festivals and is quite funny in a sick kind of way. I was lucky enough to see it on the big(ish) screen at the Fitzroy Shorts Festival. see for yourself.
be warned its pretty gory, but not scary!
THANK GOD IT’S ALL OVER
Well that’s it, the last move ill be doing (hopefully) for quite some time. I was expecting it to be horrendous but was mildly surprised.
Andy’s folks were over form NZ for a week and stayed with us, they offered to help us move and of course we said YES PLEASE.

banter and images to come
Took me a while to warm to their tunes but after a wee bit i did get into it.
Thoughs
Ryuichi Sakamoto - Genious
Alva Noto - Too much spare time on his hands to create mediocre loops
With insen Alva Noto and Ryuichi Sakamoto create a new synergy between acoustic piano and electronic music. Subtle digital processing and an on-stage LED screen installation by Alva Noto counterbalance and manipulate Sakamoto’s elegant piano phrasing, creating vivid dialogues between melody, rhythm and texture. insen is an exquisite exploration of what music might look like. Strips of light and grid-like patterns appear on screen, triggered by Sakamoto’s piano playing and Alva Noto’s electronic processing in a perfect synchronisation of sound and visuals. With senses heightened the audience is taken on an eclectic visual and aural journey.

Went to the Espy Hotel to se Ils, a UK DJ and Musician. more to come…
Well i finally got some time to write this banter, its been a while so i may be a little vague.
started off in the George Win Bar where andy and myself met Brent and Amelia, we also met the wayward Mr Lampell who had been in NZ for quite some time, he looked well and was sporting a cheifton of a beard. nice work Nick.
We had a few drinks then moved off to the Espy where Ils was due to play a set for us. unknown to me nick had a little bag of Fresh Philosopher’s Stone

It’s Holiday time
Yipee the weekend came and went with no more than a few hot farts form a curry i had for dinner friday. needless to say no one who sniffed, no infact was privileged enough to savour the aroma, was too happy about it.
Farts
This is a complete aside but why is it that one revels in ones own stench of flatulence but when one gets a whiff on another bottom burp its akin to being ritually tortured skinned alive and drooped in a vat a vinegar.

This Dude is AMAZING
Went to see Ned Collette play at the Nortcote Social Club for his album launch. It was quite frankly one of the best gigs i have been to for quite some time, made me think of Jeff Buckley. Ned is an amazing guitarist, singer, lyricist and his set was almost perfect.
