Holy crap, this is super inspiring! An interesting combination of  
classic techno and booty sounds and it's all live. Looking forward to  
more.

Hi all,

It's been ages since I posted anything new up here, as I've mostly been
very busy with my new family over the past few years. But I'm pleased
to say that I'm finally starting to do some new music again!

The main thing I'm working on is 'The Pace', a new live project that
I'm doing with Guy Thackeray (DJ Guy, Non Stop DJs, Global Fire). This
is a fully live act, with everything 100% programmed and played on the
spot, nothing pre-recorded or planned (some more info pasted below)

We've got a couple of sets online that I reckon some of you might enjoy

If you're over this side of the world you can also catch our debut
performance at Plex on 5 October, along with Arpanet live, Donato Dozzy

Hi all,

It's been ages since I posted anything new up here, as I've mostly been very 
busy with my new family over the past few years. But I'm pleased to say that 
I'm finally starting to do some new music again!

The main thing I'm working on is 'The Pace', a new live project that I'm doing 
with Guy Thackeray (DJ Guy, Non Stop DJs, Global Fire). This is a fully live 
act, with everything 100% programmed and played on the spot, nothing 
pre-recorded or planned (some more info pasted below)

We've got a couple of sets online that I reckon some of you might enjoy -

That's exactly what we do.   Empty drum machines and no synth 
sequences.   Guy plays all the keys live and loops them up as he goes, 
he doesn't start with any patterns, and I use 3 drum machines all empty 
to begin with.   The only thing that is any way prepared are some of the 
patch banks.


On that Plex session we cut off the first couple of loops of the 
recording where we built up those patterns
