Buddha Machine Session 1
Recently I recorded a session with my slowly growing collection of Buddha Machines. My set up is really simple: I run a Buddha Machine through a Memory Man looping pedal and then through a turntable mixer which then goes to my stereo. Everything you will listen to was recorded onto my phone. The result is…

Music Update
So I’ve been buying a few digital albums of late. I used to be particular and purchase CDs, mainly because it was part of the fact that I liked to hold something in my hand. But a lot of these purchases are for things where ordering a CD would be difficult, as the work might…

Saturday
Today I am going to a festival called All Our Friends, which technically started about half and hour ago. I wasn’t going to go, because I really couldn’t justify the eighty lucre that it cost. However, a work buddy knew the organiser and put me down for free entry. Sadly, I’m waiting on a phone…

Random Tuesday Post
So last night I almost gave into temptation. I almost bought a Tenori-On. For those who don’t know what it is, just Google it (or if you follow the Microsoft sponsored Vampire Diaries, you can “Bing” it. But then again if you watch that drek, well stop reading this and go back to wasting your…
