POP SHIELD



Home-made pop shield using a tatty rag, gaffer tape, broken drumsticks and 2 rubbish mic stands...it worked a treat but then again, all we done was screamed at the piece of cloth for an hour and convinced ourselves it sounded great?!

DELS



Really great doc on UK rapper Dels. I particularly liked Hot Chips, Joe Goddard comment on working in a big studio with nice equipment. As much of a pop star as he maybe, it's good knowing the artistry in music always remains!

NERO IS BEING USED TO BEAT ME AT MY OWN GAME

Nero is being used to beat me at my own game by manreads


I pieced this track together from various recordings at ManReads rehersals. We wrote and recorded the lyrics in about 30mins one evening....I even had a go at mastering this one. Really happy with the results and I can't wait to play this live on the 1st June...

AT & LUCASSE

Film number two from Mr A. Telling. On a similar tip to Crossing Lines, this follows UK artist Word To Mother across my homeland Italia. The edits are far, far quicker than CL almost opting fora series of photography like images set to the dry background of a typically Italian/Mediterranean town.


The soundtrack was produced by Lucassse with Buddy Peace helming the beats this time rather than your's truly. The low end from the guitars sound great, particularly in the intro of the track...beat-a-rific-folk-blah?!

TOM VEK



I know of so many people waiting the long 5 years or so for new Tom Vek material. I got into him during my hardcore-punk-holier-than-thou phase. A great, great return to form I think you'll agree!
