random… very random

I haven’t had enough time to finish up the entire “studio” section of this site like I originally wanted - so I’ve put those plans on hold for a moment.

Anyway, in the meantime I’ve put a page together to provide links to a few of my tracks.

It’s better than having a non-functioning link on my menubar.

Toby just pointed me at a huge list of music videos on YouTube (11520 songs to be precise). There’s loads to enjoy in this list - plus a bunch of things I’ve never heard of.

To make things easier, I knocked up a quick page to get to them without any unneccessary fluff… so without any further ado, I present…

… My YouTube music video toy.

Warning - This page can waste serious amounts of time!

We’ve found the perfect band for our wedding!

They’re called Gothic Chicken and Yve, Ed and I went for a night out in Weymouth last night to check ‘em out.

These guys are brilliant. They do a really authentic psychadelic set, with classics from the 60s and some of their own material. They’ve even got a real Hammond, complete with whirling Leslie cabinet. They were tight, and great fun - pretty much perfect for the occasion.

Check out some photos from the gig here.

I used the gig opportunity to have a practice at some low light gig photography - believe me, it was really dark in there so I had to open the aperture all the way and push the ISO way higher than I would normally like, shooting at this sort of setting without flash is a massive challenge and there is an absolute ton of noise in the images but I’m quite happy with some of the pictures and I definitely learnt a lot!
