    Can't Mix Won't Mix

    Like it! Didn't recognise Dave Peoples but discogged: (The Walt J Project) or Dream Scoring (Innerspace Halflife!) thanks. I use Virtual DJ on and off - mostly just when listening with headphones on if travelling or in a v. quick set up outputting to bluetooth speakers. I've had a free version...

    an accidental life

    I'm certain this works and have seen it work and yet it's so easy to forget to do it. He points out its flaw too oc.

    Breaking Bad

    Jonathan Banks is in 'Constellation'. First two eps. directed by BB's Michelle MacLaren. Haven't seen it yet. Strangely enjoyed or at least engaged most with BB when I was forcing myself to watch it during Season 1 because I couldn't get into it. Like the feeling of watching super-slow...

    What is the hardcore continuum to you?

    Totally agree on Djrum's output. He took it somewhere beyond anything else. He was on fire up to the 2nd LP and including Hard To Say/Tournesol (how prescient was that release considering how bpm's (house and techno) skyrocketed in the years after its release?). Saw him dj in Dublin last autumn...

    Are there any funny television programmes at all?

    Spongebob in gaelic. You'd think you wouldn't laugh or laugh more than for like a couple of minutes but it didn't play out like that at all. Was transfixed and in tears. Saw it in a hotel in Donegal on TG4 (i think). Was admittedly in a completely enhanced state. Havven't checked if the gaelic...

    Choon of the Day, redux

    The ambient closer on this Lp is why i returned but this is the stand out i think. Would have made 'Landcruising' ( Carl Craig's - a year later) better imo.

    The feel of the 2010's

    Sounds much better to me now and i'm sure this is because i like 'Still Slipping' LP so much. I think i heard it first on one of those 'Warp 100' compilations that were a tenner to dl. That was a moment for me at around the beginning of the '10's - starting to pay again for music rather than...

    Do you think when you're Dancing? And related questions.

    CBM - cofeebummouth. Mixed with the stench catarrh creates along with Boost (cheap energy drink) and smoking = jesusmaryandjosephine breath. These are categories from an optician i know. He has to endure breath at work. Kimchi or Miso/Japanese cuisine a dangerous antagonist

    Do you think when you're Dancing? And related questions.

    Love this question and have often thought about this. So last weekend i went to ALFOS in Derry on friday and then again in Belfast on the saturday. Both nights/sets were brilliant and i kept track of what i was thinking about. The most interesting thing by far was: RED O - i kept thinking about...
