Squarepusher 'Ufabulum'

New album from Squarepusher due out in May 2012, according to Warp...

"I've started thinking about pure electronic music again. Something very melodic, very aggressive" - Squarepusher

Sounds good to me.

Urban Drawings

I haven't posted anything for a few days as I have been pretty busy. The daily drawings will hopefully pick up again in a week or so when I have cleared up all the stuff I'm trying to do at the moment... which have become quite time consuming.

Today I'm posting some drawings of car parks that I did a few years ago. I've got boxes full of drawings kicking around, so maybe I'll post some more soon.

I'm glad it's Friday tomorrow.

The Shrimp Girl

New sounds from the Homemade Hardcore.... Enjoy

Drawing 20.02.12

Sorry I have been a bit slack uploading stuff this month, but I've had a few other things on the go all at once. Anyway, hopefully some more interesting stuff to come...

Automatic Skull Drawings

Last weekend I spent a while drawing a skull money box. It looks just like a real skull, so I thought it would be cool to draw it, being as skulls are sooooo in right now. I mixed it up with the automatic drawing project and made some drawings without looking at the paper.

One of the things I like about this way of working is the unexpected qualities that are created. I was deliberately trying to be as confident with the technique as possible.

More after the jump...

Drawing 15.02.2012

Thanks to BT taking about a week to fix the Internet connection, I'm now going to try and resume my daily drawing programme. So, here goes...

Hope & Poverty Exhibition @ Paintworks, Bristol

Happy Valentines day everyone! Not that there is much left.
Yeah, a great day for an opening night for an exhibition and also a great night for causing travel chaos by throwing yourself under a train... apparently.
This was how I spent my evening, drinking all the free red wine and complaining.

Here are some of the photos. See if you can spot my drawing, cleverly positioned just above eye level and just above a radiator pumping out hot air right into your face:

Brilliant day out all round.

Fantazia Revolution

I'm off to Fantazia later on to re-live the old days... that I kind of slightly missed first time around. I remember taking an old rave tape with stuff like Altern8, SL2, Shades of Rhythm and all that on it to a disco at school and they wouldn't play it. It's an experience I got used to and People still don't want to play my stuff now!

Anyway, here are a few drawings I did at some point with obvious head nod to rave scene.

Top one, nice one, get sorted.

Hardcore will never die

Today's drawing

I got a bit side tracked today making a drawing I thought would be quick and then turned out not to be quick. I seem to get too involved making things overly complex most of the time. Funnily enough, some of the drawings that I think are more successful are the ones that were very quick to make and others wither up about two weeks into starting them. I know what the problem is... too many things to make and not enough time.

Documented drawing 07.02.12

I thought I would try and do a drawing and document it along the way. These are some photo's I took while it was in production. Hopefully from these you will be able to see the details, as it's not easy to see how the drawings are constructed from the finished piece.

The completed drawing is shown below, with the build up images following.

Drawing for today

Saving Paper Video!

I made this video for a presentation at work, which I did today. I have some ideas for some more that may or may not find their way onto these pages... it kind of depends if I get time. This took me ages and is still quite rubbish... enjoy!
