"Hi everybody... Happy New Year to you all!
i apologise for my long absence, but i have been working (honest!)
the collaboration with merv from eat static is nearly finished - maybe 2 or 3 weeks away now. We still don't have a name for it yet... we have been using the working title "Metal Sharon", but aren't too happy with it... any suggestions?
the shpongle gig in japan went well over new year's eve... i even played a bit of guitar and bass, which was much more fun than operating a load of machines! i just LOVE that country... the people are so warm,loving and evolved...
other highlights of last year for me were the hallucinogen in dub gig at glastonbury - again, i was able to play guitar... we had youth on bass, and ott on the machines, and i loved every minute of it! i will be sending some mp3s of the gig to aquagena, as soon as i get the recording off the elusive sound guy... keep your eyes and ears peeled! i enjoyed aphex twin's set too... one of the strangest ambient sets i have ever heard in my life... whether u like his stuff or not, the guy is a genius...
earthcore 10th anniversary was also a killer... i haven't been to oz for a while, and it was a joy to meet some of the fans there, and the warm reception was amazing.
i have written a hallucinogen track for the forthcoming 'gran turismo' game on ps2... it is quite slow, and probably has too much bass for a TV, but sounds Huge on a big sound system!
i do pop in to the chat room occasionally, and of course there is never anyone there... perhaps i will post a time that i will be there... i will try again at 10pm tonight GMT.
Thank you for all your emails... i do read them all, and try to reply to as many as possible, although i tend to ignore the ones that are already answered in interviews on the site. I have certainly met some interesting people, and if i don't reply, please don't take it personally... sometimes my inbox gets too full, and yahoo deletes a load automatically... also there is no broadband in my remote part of the english countryside, so the internet is a bit of a chore on a dial-up connection.
i intend to start the hallucingen 3rd album this year... i have been bored working on my own in the studio, preferring to collaborate...younger brother, merv, shpongle etc.. but now i am twitchy again, and we need some new dancefloor killers!
Thanks to all who support us by actually buying the records, not just downloading it.
The music business is on it's knees, and sometimes it is hard for a small label to make a profit... personally i think mp3s sound shit anyway, and would rather people heard the quality of mastering that goes into a CD... we don't spend all that money for nothing!
Well it is 7am here now, and my head feels like a frisbee... i should be mixing the final merv track, but got distracted by the interweb again... and after seeing all your kind posts, i thought i should say hello!
Love to everyone, especially the regulars, and all the best for 2004! Have a Great new year, and a million more to come!
