Some recent still (from video) I’ve been working on for a major upcoming event…. stay tuned for the announcement.

So I’m back from Japan, wow it seemed to take me forever to readjust back to Brisbane (considering I was only away for a month or so) and that in combination with a few lifestyle changes, sickness and a pile of paper work made for a lot of readjusting on my return.

Have been working hard on my collaboartive album release with Lawrence English and great results are starting to surface. We have an overseas label that’s agreed to put it out later in the year (more on that later).

In the mean time I will be joining a great Perth group called The Ghost of 29 Megacycles on stage next weekend and it would be great to see you all there.

Back to Oz soon so this will be my last post from Japan. What an event filled trip this has been, some good, some bad and some unbelievable. Have spent the past three days rolling with friends in Kyoto and Osaka, having some of the best times this trip.

I recently picked up one of these little fella’s. It has a ton of advantages over my old M-Audio Microtrack with some being 4 Mic/4 Channel surround sound recording, built in limiter, runs for hours on two AA batteries and better preamps to name just a few. To say the least I am pleasantly surprised by it’s capabilities.

I’m in Osaka for the next week before I head back to Oz, have been doing as much recording and photography as possible. Have been investigating some new ideas and completing some explorations into some cross disciplined works that may come to light in the future.
