Abingdon Boys School

This is probably old news to most people from said institution, but last night Binster and I discovered a Japanese band named after my old school:

Their website features them wearing what is clearly their idea of an English school uniform. Apparently, they got hold of the name when reading a Radiohead biography...their songs aren't that good unfortunately.

School could probably sue for the misuse of their logo!

Give me a "Reason 3.0" to Love You

That's what the Reason tutorial I'm writing with Binster tonight is going to be called.

That's a lie obviously.

For those of you chimps who don't know, I write CM's monthly Game Overture column now, which is about video game musics. If you make said music and you want to be in it, drop me a bell, give me a line or sling me a pidegon at my email address which you can decipher from the column on the right of this page.

Live 6 is a good little turbot

Have to say, I'm liking the new stuff in 6 a lot - the metering's awesome and makes it easier to do full mixes if, like me, you're foolish enough to try such things.

Must. Get. Good. Monitoring...

Record went really well - I'm happy with the end result, perhaps even more so than last time: K-Complex is certainly a genius, possibly a mad genius. Release will take about 4 or 5 months apparently, but we'll wait to see the outcome.

I'm currently working on a bunch of stuff for CM - a pads tutorial, an interview with Mr Mark Pember of Meat Katie fame, and a Reason tutorial with Binster next week.

I've just been handed a copy of Live 6 which I'm very much looking forward to installing and playing with. If anyone would like to hand me a copy of Logic and a Macbook Pro I would definitely not say no.

Part Deux

Tomorrow I'm going to London to make the B-side...things are looking good currently as the demo's taken shape nicely. Here goes!
