Oh yeah, I've got a blog innit! Better get a bit more on it with this really....... all this new-fangled cyber jiggery pokery n stuff...... hmmmm, tis a lot to deal with.

So, what's happened? I moved home (and studio) in September - I'm now right by the sea in sunny Brighton (ten years this month, surely calls for a party), on possibly the windiest street in the world, but I get to see the sea every day without fail and few things give me more pleasure at the moment. I can also see the West Pier (the burnt one) from my window and the starlings are going mental at dusk over it at the moment - cracking stuff. Workwise I've just done some nice varied commissions for Mountain Bike Rider, Ransom Publishing and The London Magazine, and have some exciting projects on the go or coming up pretty soon. Starting to think too about exhibitions and stuff to show for the May festival. Unfortunately I also have a poorly computer which likes to frustrate me at crucial moments, the bastard.

As always, being fully enlivened and inspired by a constant flow of exciting music, but I've had an unusually large amount of proper ace stuff come my way of late. Currently loving albums by Perfect Stranger, Antix, Naked Tourist, Multistate, Mungo's Hifi, Abassi Allstars, Martha Tilston, Crowbar, Eric Bibb, Kings Of Leon, Error Corrective and as ever the mighty mighty Soul Brothers. Check some of this stuff out if you don't know it - awesome tunes.
