Ad Hominem

For the bloggers amongst you, I’m curious if anyone has had offers to put ads on their blog?
It’s something that’s happened three or four times now for me with HIAF. I’m not really hugely for or against the idea. But I’m not in favour of it enough to agree to it. Or at least I’ve […]

Moving to London

So I’ll be moving to London in February or March to work for these guys. This is a job I really wanted (I still can’t really believe I got it, just heard yesterday) and it should be lots of fun. Hopefully it won’t affect the blog too much and I’ll be keeping up all my […]

Tracks of my Year

People are saying “it’s that time of year” incessantly, so I suppose it must be that time of year. What time of year? That time of year when it is time for the year to come to an end, and people mark this in various ways, eg saying “it’s that time of year” everytime they […]

Neglect and Hurt

So this place is a bit threadbare lately, but don’t worry, I’m just a bit busy. Basically since getting back from Berlin/Bucharest I’ve been working almost every day and the days I’m free I’ve had to prepare for a job interview which I did in London on Monday (taking up another rare day off.) I […]

When We Return

I’ll be posting again regularly as of next Monday.
I’m really glad I took a break and I can’t wait to get going again. In the meantime I’ve got a stopgap job which I can tolerate, in the beautiful world of retail once more!
Anyway, the first post back will be a guest podcast with whichever one […]

Changes

I’m trying to change things a bit, so that the blog is better when I return and so that I feel a bit refreshed about doing it. Some stuff I’ve been considering:
1. Guest mixes: This is someting I’ve wanted to do for a while, get somebody not so well known but interesting (eg the same […]

Something Else

A second blog is something I’ve wanted to do for a while and with the vigour of being back from holidays I’ve now done it. It’s called “Everything Else” and on it I’ll write about pretty much anything non-techno from books to films to videos to paintings and beyond. I will still be keeping this […]

Holiday

I’m going on holiday tomorrow and won’t be back until Saturday. In the meantime here’s a stream to keep you busy, it’s Stimming’s “Funkworm”, I really love this. There’ll be no podcast or radio show this week but normal service will resume once I’m back. I thought about remote posting or hiring a guest to […]

Romania mania

Are there any Romanian readers of this blog? If so could you drop me an email via the link on the right hand side of the blog. Thanks a lot. PS: Proper post and radio show stuff coming soon, just finishing off this month’s Resident Advisor column.

Downcast

So last week, there was no podcast as I had a problem recording the show. This week this should be remedied despite me being out of Dublin for most of the next 5 or6 days, “handling business” as they say. I’m going to try and sort something out podcast wise in some of the brief […]
