Anyone fancy a bit of freebie music (or pay whatever if you're feeling generous). A short (by my standards) live version of a track which I hope will lead up my next album.

Some more live outings (corrected).
Sunday 21st Sept. Purple Turtle Reading. (Berkshire EMOM)
Thursday 9th Oct. Whitstable Umbrella (Coastal Electonauts)
Both will be short sets with plenty of other artists on the bills. I’ve got a new piece ready to go which should also finish off my next album.

Wife away for a long weekend, and I need to put some music together for some upcoming gigs. So you know what that means!
Displacement activities.
For something I love doing, it can take me so long starting to make music.

The C4 F1 commentators seem very taken with the Silverstone crowd being bigger than Glastonbury. Well, yes, that might be because you count the same person turning up for three days as three people and someone going to Glasto for four or five days as one.

A couple of gigs upcoming.
Sun 18th - Windsor EMOM. Looks like I'll be on early. A new EMOM venue, worth supporting if you can.
Sat 24th - Reading High Vibes (South Street). This concert series tends to Noisy/Experimental so I'm duty bound to visit weird world (+the inevitable sequencer clatter)

Modcaf are taking over at Modular World on Sunday. Come and watch (it will be streaming with chat so worth a visit for the premiere). I've got a new piece (very loosely related to some of the music I played at Awakenings and the Reading EMOM, but recorded in the studio with the Big Beasts).

New show next month. Given the High Vibes vibe, probably something at the experimental end of things.
Delighted to announce @johnsculpture.bsky.social will be making his High Vibes debut at our May show. Gonna be a builder. From modular beauty through wonky synth beats to face melting break/mash core. Now with added contemporary visual art from Philip Newcombe. Come down!

Quick EMOM set tonight at South Street Reading (from 7:30, me around 8 I believe). Then a full set at Awakenings in Rugeley on Saturday.
And then the car throws an MOT crisis... no stress...
The modular world video show won't be on Sunday though, slight delay to that. Watch this space.
