A Different Kind of Hardcore Dancing
I’ve not posted any funny dancing for a long old time. Here’s a totally different style
Advertising in ‘Making Things Look Better Than They Are’ Shocker!!!
This story is genius – thanks to Guy over on Think Demux for blogging it first (and sorry for the blatant re-post, but it’s too good not not share). He has some commentary around it. Anyway, this DFS ad has been banned. Not because it’s a…
Before Trainspotting And Before Human Traffic
There was the mighty Weekender! An awesome extended rave chronicle / pop promo from back in 1992. I always thought Flowered Up were a little bit pony, but this makes up for every slightly lame track they ever put out. I’m sure I’ve got…
Taitley’s Bitter
The Poke Christmas party was fun. But I feel a little horrid today.…
The Books What I Read On Holiday
The Road by Cormac McCarthy – Totally outstanding. You could get through it quite quickly but it’s one of those books that will stick with you for a long while. To be honest I didn’t get into it for about the first third. But then I got…
Long Photos From Goa
I’ve become a big fan of ‘Long Photos’ as Flickr calls them… Making videos is hard, but anyone can take long photos. And sometimes they just tell nice little stories. Sunsets and palms. In the background you might just be able to make out…
3 Minutes Worth of Billboard Advertising in Goa
One of the things I promised to myself when I was away was that I’d make more stuff. Regardless of how rubbish it might be. So here’s the first thing from my new regime. It’s 3 minutes worth of roadside advertising from Goa… Scroll…
Sorry, So Rude Of Me…
I’ve been away for a couple of weeks. And I didn’t even say goodbye. Sorry. I’ve been in India taking a break from all things electronic and digital. It was nice. But now I’m back I feel like a digital retard. I’ve got no idea what’s going…
54 Million Views For A Ticking Noise
I’m sure most of you have seen this. But I saw it again the other day and was as tickled by it as I was the first time I saw it. Such a simple lovely little thing. And it’s got 54 million views and counting. That’s a lot of views. But I’m…
Hungry Horace Badge
Working at Poke is always entertaining. Someone made this badge and left it on my desk. I think it’s a gift. At least I hope it’s a gift and not some kind of warning about something…
Soma Subscriptions
I’ve been a fan of Soma Records for a long old time now. They’ve been doing quality deep techno-y house out of Glasgow for years. But I only found the Soma MP3 subscription service yesterday. Here’s the details… A brand new subscription is…
Istanbul Roundup
I had a great time in Istanbul. I was talking at the Digitalage conference which was good. I think it all went OK, as much as you can ever tell when you’re standing out front and faced with a room full of people… Here’s some things I saw…
