DANIEL!

THE PERFECT SET-UP

i love really cheap videos like this new one from recent Olo podders Deerhoof (below). us Olo chaps actually filmed one about a month ago pretty much the same as this one..wierd! well not that wierd, most bands live in houses with stairs i suppose..ah but do they have flashing bicylce lights (in our case) or flashing letter lights (in Deerhoof's)?? you will see our one after our mini-album is done as we don't want anyone to hear the stuff til then (not that it's gonna blow anyone's minds or anything..we just want it that way).

OLO RADIO - G23 - BUILT FOR GHOSTS - LESSONS IN ENDINGS (FOR BEGINNERS) - 23/2/07


Our next guest mix comes from BUILT FOR GHOSTS!

"Slabsofabsence plays guitar and sings for Built for Ghosts. He likes angles, words and rhythms that dont sit together easily. Narratives that make no sense. He follows innocent people around the city then dials the wrong number. He burned photographs in the sink humming the themetune to a gameshow after burying masks on the beach. Sea filling his eyes, he now stares glassy at the animals as they bark politics into plastic bags."
- Slabsofabsence (Built For Ghosts)

'Lessons In Endings (For Beginners)' is the name of this EXCLUSIVE mix given to Olo Radio. Enjoy!

JLC WATCH (Official Spot No.1)


This is ridicous. every time i leave the house i see TV star *cough* Justin Lee Collins and his long flowing lion's maine. i think this must be the 6/7th time this year (yes, i average one day out a week). at roughly 4.43pm he walked right across my path outside WHSmith on Whiteladies Road, Bristol. so if you spot JLC be sure to buzz me straight away (either by phone, email or walkie talkie) and we'll bust him and i'll stick another pin on the map! (of erm..Bristol).

OLO RADIO - G22 - THE LANDLORD'S DAUGHTER - THE GREEN MAN - 20/2/07


Our next guest mix comes from THE LANDLORD'S DAUGHTER! (from The Wickerman Festival)

"This mix is basically what the blissed out chilling fields of The Wickerman Festival's all about. It's an easy going festival, but not lazy. It's colourful and bright, but not in-yer-face with a 24hr day-glo attitude. Great music, green Scottish valleys, and sunshine filled warming blue July summer skies."

SHRIGLEY

Looking at that old exhibiton poster i posted earlier it reminded me that David Shrigley was actually in the same building on the opening night (although he didn't bother walking through to see the show). he was giving a talk, very badly..that suited him and his work. i was running between the talk and the exhibition i curated, missing all good bits of both.

even though nobody's ever said anything to me, i'm always aware people may think i try (and fail) to rip off his style. this couldn't be further from the truth. i first saw his work during my art foundation course (1999 i think?) many years after i'd begun to draw simple little men hitting each other with toothpicks and brushes in my sketch books, on bus tickets, and on people. obvisously he's work is full of wit and humour and mine's just nonsense but still..I DIDN'T COPY HIM!! i love all his stuff and it has influenced me a great deal in the past and still does to this day but in a negative way. you see..since knowing his art, when i'm doodling i'm thinking 'don't do a Shrigley, don't do a Shrigley!' and i try and drag the pen/brush differently. i've just had a wierd feeling i may have said all this before? sorry, just want to be clear. i hate to be thought as a copycat. god, that was all very whiney wasn't it?

anyway, enough about little ol' me. he's designed brilliant new album covers for two of my favourite musical artists.. Deerhoof & Malcolm Middleton (below)





in case you aren't to familar with him, here's a video profile of the man..



'Who I Am And What I Want'..

SAFETYWORD, YOU & THE ATOM BOMB, SJ ESAU (Live 17/2/07)

SJ Esau..


Safetyword..


You & The Atom Bomb..



here's what i thought of them all..


i'm only joking of course. it were BRILL!! my 3 fave bristol pop acts on the same bill! the place was packed! it sold out really early, leaving many dissapointed. seemed like most of the Bristol music scene were there (not that it's something that should be mentioned really). i ruined the night by carrying on after the gig and falling asleep in the corner of a club on my own.

thanks to Delifinger & Seaweed for the snaps.

ART ATTACK!

My good friend Ross Corker (the artist!) has a new website. have a look, you can see us two dressed up in white suits eating piles of food for the award winning short film '5 flavours'. below is a very old poster i found on the site for an exhibition i organised while at uni. why is there a story of TPT on there? *rolls eyes* students!

i've not seen them for a few weeks so i'm rather excited about tonight. the gig features (in my opinion) the best 3 bands/artists in Bristol.. Safetyword, You & The Atom Bomb, & SJ Esau.

listen to Safetyword on BBC Bristol's new 'Fine Tuned' show. hit the listen again (on the right of the page). other shows include other local favourites of mine..Rose Kemp & Countryside.
