This site is amazing. A collection of photos from abandoned places around the world. Won’t even bother trying to describe them here – besides I’d have to type 1000 words for each one. Just click the link and be suitably blown away.

So next week I shall be DJing at the fifth Tokyo Laptop Battle. Rejoice sinners!

If I understand the brief correctly I shall be playing before, during and indeed after the ‘battle’ proper. So it’s essentially an extended BETAMAXNOMATES set interrupted by some bouts of laptop-based lunges, parrys and reprisals. The spectacle of Laptop Battle truly [...]

Podcast time once more! In this episode we’ve got the lowdown on the Tokyo Laptop Battle – an innovative new electronic music event happening Friday June 19th in Super Deluxe in Nishi-Azabu. There’s an interview with the organisers, Matt and Claudius, not to mention a unique ‘ethniglitch’ mix from Matt’s alter ego Control Freak. Be [...]

As if one retina-scorching vidular extravaganza wasn’t enough, The Alchemist has done it again, this time slicing and dicing the highlights of the Made In Glitch Valentine’s Day Party at La Fabrique in Shibuya. Featuring some knob-twiddling, pad-hammering theatrics from Rob Speakerbruiser, Mochipet, DJ Ken One, Matt B, Lucca, and of course my bad self, [...]

Here’s the newest Made In Glitch promotional video shot by Antipodean auteur and unabashed Michael Bay-fanboy ‘The Alchemist’ Michael Condon and featuring some glitchy four-note tunage from yours truly. Various shots and stills from this clip will be soon seen in Michael’s upcoming video for edIT of The Glitch Mob. Watch this space for more.

Based on a Clive Barker short story, a deadly game of cat and blah blah blah, when obsession turns to yada yada yada, Vinnie Jones etc.
Delightfully stupid film, this. The plot is pure nonsense: in a nutshell, mild-mannered photographer rescues a [...]

Just to update you on my (thus far unsuccessful) attempt at stalking Little Boots. Today, I was (briefly) in Harajuku and guess who else was there too? Via Twitter:

Disappointingly, there were [...]

Little Boots is in Tokyo. Insert *shocked face* here. Via her Twitter:
Made it to Tokyo! Flight was fine, been dreading this trip a bit but now I’m here am super excited!! Blaaaaaaaaaaaaa!!!
‘Blaaaaaaaaa’ indeed. And there’s this, from about an hour ago:
Staying at the hotel from Lost In Translation. Incredible. The view from my room literally [...]

Yes indeed. Yours truly doing the DJ thing this weekend. The place is Club OVO in Nakameguro (my manor) this Sunday between 19:00 and 24:00. Other DJs on the night include the most estimable MattB, the highly edible Lucca, and the generally indelible sAne who will be performing a unique audio/visual set that’s surely not [...]

It’s hanami season here in Japan right now. Hanami (or 花見 to use the lingo) is, ostensibly anyway, a centuries-old celebration to mark the blooming of the cherry blossoms and the coming of spring but basically it’s an excuse to get pissed in a field. You leave work early, grab a couple of moderately-priced lager [...]
