twotunes

yo! been a long time since my last post with all the moving house, jobs and such things yada yada. Anyway, nice one on the folksy stuff, wanton seed - great lyrics. I like. Also toot! nice one on the video/music, it works really well together. Oh and the moderat is heavy...

A couple here that aren't particularly new to me but are worth sharing:

In the folky / indie area, a track by The Middle East, with a great euphoric ending



And a completely unrelated track by a guy called...Shed. A decent pair of headphones/speakers to get the full effect for this one

Nic Jones

I've held off posting this for long enough. My favorite discovery of the last five years is probably Nic Jones. He's pretty folk-tastic, and probably wont tickle everyone's fancy, but the guy is ridiculously good on the guitar and I quite like his voice too. He doesn't tour any more, having had a pretty horrendous car crash, but there's a few albums that you can get hold of...

Yo folks, just thought I'd share a piece of sound design/composition work I did recently.

Christopher Raeburn Video

It's made from sounds recorded at a textile studio.

And here's my little musical website www.tootdotcom.com

Also, there's a decent looking Rephlex night for anyone in London this weekend.

Dark Guitars and Drums.. and Some Night-Time Visuals

Yo!

Finally got round to having a listen to the classical post t'other day. Really good, and i felt educated too- will aim at more informative posts in the future, but going to keep it short with this one:



(Late Addition): For some dark Japan night-time visuals this video is excellent- put together by a guy called Samuel Cockedey, the sound track is a suitably broody cinema-esque piece by Paul Frankland, aka Woob, called "Paradigm Flux."

Post-Apocalyptic-Carnival-Down-Time

A substantially heavy weekend has passed. Where i was properly introduced to David Rodigan. An immense individual.




Then Major Lazer absolutely killed it. And now, i am in this sort of headspace:
