Hey! It Lives............

Here's some things I like......



About as politically incorrect as it gets. Theres something a bit David Brent about Kenny Fuckin' Powers. He is a total cock but they still manage to make him quite endearing. I loves that HBO.



Best programme since that one about the cops in Baltimore (I forget what it was called...) The Dad from Malcolm in the Middle is a high school chemistry teacher who has a disabled son and a pregnant wife finds out he has terminal lung cancer. Cheery huh? He decides to ensure their financial future by becoming a crystal meth dealer. I'm only halfway through series one but this is seriously fucking good.




This makes me feel like I'm at the whip in 1986. Wicked.

Fever Ray... When i Grow Up... Best thing i've heard in years....

Had to be done!

This is Brilliant!

Virtual digital Studio... Drum machines, 303's and synth what more do you want =)

This Blog is broken, sad and lonely. A space left dorment by its careless creators. If only we'd had something to say. Things could have been so different. We'd have had those top Curry sellers quaking in their poppadoms at the thought of the Dukes descending on the tables.

Where do the Dukes live?

I haven't seen the film yet, and I guess there's lots of info about India's famous slums out there already. Anyways, here's some more curry for your naan!

India. Mumbai. 2006. A girl walks along a water pipe in the Industrial Area of Dharavi. Although it functions as a throroughfare through this area of the slum, the water in the pipes is headed for the more affluent southern areas of the city. Dharavi is one of Mumbai's biggest and longest standing slums. Home to somewhere between 600 000 and one million people, it is a beehive of recycling and manufacturing industries. However, Dharavi sits on prime real estate right in the heart of the booming megapolis, and is in close vicinity to the new Bandra-Kurla Complex, a new financial hub. Dharavi is now scheduled for redevelopment, meaning everything in the slum, for good and bad, is set to be demolished. © Jonas Bendiksen/Magnum Photos

Where's it (rorsch) at

I know there's already email talk about the next curry night and trying to combining it with a viewing of the Watchmen movie - but I just wanted to underline how fricking excited and slightly weird I feel about it about the thought of it.

We are all around the same age and I knew most of the Dukes when Watchmen came out on paper, and I'll put money on us all getting our copies from the same store - Forever People - and bagging them up after reading, too. And some of us were in a band named after the lead character. Although Rorschach's pop-punk riffing and knockabout love of stoopid wasn't quite as well captured by Alan Moore as it could have been. (Does this, by the way, make Two Busted Flippers a collector's item?)

So, anyway, it feels a little like a watershed moment, it coming out on film and all that, after all this time. Kind of makes me feel really old, and 16 again.

PS - I want to post a music track here - how?

Disco and me. Feb 09

I suppose I was the perfect age for disco being a 70's teenager, if only I'd been brought up in New York or Paris instead of Longfrickingwell Green, things might be a bit different!-) This track by Sheila & B Devotion has a beautiful shuffle feel with lush Chic production. Proper earloop for me at the mo this one.
It's 1979 and you can feel the end of era, last days of disco sound. Crap footage though!-)

Music.Love.Eye.

MGMT
I know they've been big with da yoot for a while now, but as I ain't yoot no more I feel it my duty to get into bands about a year after eveybody else...recently the LP has got right under my skin! Something really 70's in tracks like Electric Feel gives me the fuzzglow...I wanted to embed the vid for it here, but Sony don't like that, gits!
So here's a different clip of another of mine and Migs faves (tehe) Klaxons from last year with Calm Trees. I love this kind of fan shot footage, complete with out of tune vox, half arsed drumming, but who gives a shit? The bit with the washy SG guitar sound a minute or so in, I dig...fo'real...watch in high quality

The Smoking Gun

For those of you with too much time on your hands, and an unhealthy ability to sift through the billions of pages on the net, you may well have come across the Smoking Gun in the past. I find the mugshots they post give me a hearty chortle every time...check this young'lady'. Even if she was the last women on earth?-( Meet Sister Grim from Miami Nice...

BBC.News.Sport.S**t.Eat.Grin.

I'm sure they're lovely people and there are far more serious things in the world to get upset about, but sometimes I have to look away when these people are on screen.
Today my question is this: Does the production team tell the BBC news sports news readers to do this grin that I describe as shit eating but that doesn't really describe it. Its more like there's an invisible thread being pulled from above attached to their cheeks that produces the bizarre smile.
Has anyone else noticed this? These two, Sean and Amanda, are masters of it. I'm guessing its to project a lighter feel to the news after telling us some clever grey man has just collapsed your favourite bank and been given 2 trillion dollars for kindly leaving the building, or a kid has been been bludgeoned by a alchoholic pitbull puppy weilding a samurai sword!

Happy New Year Dukes!

This completely appeals to the 12 year old boy in me (I don't mean that in a Michael Jackson way).
I kinda wish I spent my New Year doing that. (again... not the 12 year old boy thing.)
