New

Once again, it’s been a little while. I blame this partly on my moving house and also because we have only just got the internet installed but I’m good to go now, so that’s nice.

So my flat is nice. All coming together. I have a little space where my instruments are set up so it’s a proper little studio area. Once my old house mate Woody (who is currently sleeping on an old duvet in the spare room because he couldn’t be bothered to find anywhere to live) has gone to do his photography job on the gay cruise and the smell of camel hair has left the room, I will either look for a proper housemate again or have the room as a music room/studio/office.

I am also currently looking to invest in an electronic drum kit. Frankly it’s now doing my head in not being able to record stuff without drums and although I am ashamed to admit it, after all my years of anti drummer ill feeling, I concede that sequenced drums and drum machined really don’t cut it. I guess that you can’t beat the human touch, even if it is an electric kit. At least it’s quieter and the drums can be turned up and down, which is perhaps the problem I’ve had with drummers all along. Also, in my Jim Moray-ness I will be playing all the instruments including the drums so can only blame myself if I don’t like what I’m doing. This will ultimately drive my into a cycle of self hatred which in turn will fuel my creativity or something.

Anyway, I promise that I will now list regularly. I know that I say this every time but there is no excuse, even if it is only Mike and Urky who read.

Goodbye my loves.
