Just got back from one of the most interesting scratch sessions i've ever had. Mike (M3) seems to have an almost identical music taste to me, we were improvising and we were writing turntable melodies whilst freestyling,I'll post some videos soon. He also has the best turntable setup I've ever seen.

Wrote some lyrics last night that are very much unfinished concerning someone who never leaves their home and has cut themself away from the outside world:

'a pile of mail-order catalogues
and a lifetime spent indoors
a phonebook of instant-messenger usernames
last night's take-out embracing the floor

is it fear of facing society
or a longing for something to call your own?
surround yourself with familiar things
comfortable that you're alone'

I also discovered a band named pinback today:

Dallas Green, you continue to amaze me :P

This is brilliant :) It's from a sketch show on BBC3 called Rush Hour (mondays 1030pm)

Team sleep are beautiful, that is all.

Meh i was mixing and recorded this in one take, i might redo this using the first five songs then make it more chilled out, it ended up a bit commercial towards the end :S :

Spent the weekend with Will, who from this moment will be known as 'wig' :), at Bath Uni. Had a great time, hung out with his friends and played guitar, watched south park and got owned at wiiiiii. I learned some valuable advice and tips from Will and Alex which was cool.

Had a mini heart attack to find i'd left my car window fully open when i parked in the multi storey last night, luckily the place gets locked and i had taken everything and my radio out of my car.... then i almost had a 'collision' when i got lost in bath city centre and drove the wrong way down a one way street...major blunder :S

Oh and i discovered the band Anberlin this weekend having been recommended their stuff my a friend, anyone into their emo, check them out.

Laters

'It took so long to remember just what happened.
I was so young and vestal then,
you know it hurt me,
but I'm breathing so I guess I'm still alive
even if signs seem to tell me otherwise.
I've got my hands bound,
my head down , my eyes closed,
and my throat wide open.

Do unto others what has been done to me
Do unto others what has been done to you

I'm treading water,
I need to sleep a while.
My lamb and martyr, you look so precious.
Won't you come a bit closer?
close enough so I can smell you.

I need you to feel this,
I can't stand to burn too long.
Released in this sodomy.
For one sweet moment I am whole.

Do unto me now what has been done to me.
Do unto me now what had been done.

You're breathing so I guess you're still alive
even if signs seem to tell me otherwise.
Won't you come just a bit closer?
close enough so I can smell you.

I need you to feel this.
I need this to make me whole.
There's release in this sodomy.

For I am your witness that
blood and flesh can be trusted.
only this one holy medium brings me piece of mind.

Got your hands bound, your head down,
your eyes closed.
You look so precious now.

I have found some kind of temporary sanity in this
shit blood and cum on my hands.

I've come round full circle.
My lamb and martyr, this will be over soon.
You look so precious,
You look so precious,
You look so precious,
You look so precious now,
You look so precious...'

random words of nonsense

'its like no exercise and a diet of tv dinners
and all along thinking that you're going to get thinner
go on telling yourself that things are about to get better
whilst pretending it's raining without even checking the weather
you've got half the mind set and you think it's enough
hoping noones going to pick up on it but i'm calling your bluff
you're the embodyment of facades and false pretences
are you even kidding yourself with your own offences?

are you listening?
you nod in agreement and whisper affirmatives
but have you actually taken anything in?




Meh meh meh meh meh meh

Hot fuzz is brilliant British comedy, watch it now.
Dreading going back to college tommorow, then again I don't have long left till I leave, so it's not all that bad. I'm predicting 3 months down the line I'll be saying the complete reverse of this and wishing that it wasn't all over etc etc
I had a weird bit of excitement this morning to find i had a parcel at the postoffice. I've only been ordering cds recently which normally go straight through the postbox, so I don't know what it is :S I find out on monday :P

Thinking about remaking 'Hard as hell'- a track meda, charles and myself were working on about a year ago but never finished. Keep your eyes peeled ;)

Oh and I thought this guy was damn funky:



This just reminded me of being 8 and playing street fighter 2 on the megadrive :D *runs and dusts off his sega*

Too much coursework, too little time!!! Seeing Hot Fuzz with some mates tonight :D
Here's a live performance of 'No Transitory' by Alexisonfire, if only i could somehow kidnap Dallas Green and extract his voice for my own use (:)):





'I'm in a constant state of getting cut
So why don't I feel anything?

This is a violation

Maybe I forgot what it was like
Before it entered me

So this is what they call
Another endless night
So tired of believing
If this is wrong or right
I think this cause is lost
I wish that I could sleep
I feel like some kind of shadow
Another slave to the week
Imagine if we lived
Under the weather
We would never be found
Never discovered
If everything goes wrong
If it's one more endless night
You know there always tomorrow
And tomorrow...
They'll know there's always tomorrow

And this knife, this knife
It is my most important appendage

So now that your whole world
Has gone into flames
This night is still never ending
Do you think you're still safe?
Seems everything went wrong
We were discovered
But this time there's no tomorrow
And tomorrow...

And this knife, this knife. '

Found a video to 'The fool looks at the finger that points to the sky' by The Little Explorer. Just got their EP. Good chilled out stuff. Emo as hell lyrics but i love them :P

Jon B came over on Sunday. Thought it would be cool to record something, so (aah) yeh here it is:

Decided to make myself one of these live journal thingys to document my life i guess.
Expect lyrics, ideas, links to mp3s/mixes video etc etc
Peace
