    me ebay

    Ah.. fair enough if you don't really like em. I just thought from the sad smiley you were reluctant to be losing the DIJ stuff. EDIT - just read your blog post which makes it all make sense! I'm a hoarding kinda person, and a lot of things get kept because of a sentimental value they have in...

    me ebay

    I just don't understand the ebay mentality. Why are you guys purging out all this stuff? I could barely imagine parting with a load of shit vinyl that I'm never going to play again, never mind old Horsepower & Death In June like Eden is. Are you all strapped for cash? Nursing a serious drug...

    Portishead Interview

    http://music.guardian.co.uk/rock/story/0,,2256187,00.html I was a bit underwhelmed by the new Portishead material at ATP, but reading that makes me a bit more excited about hearing the new record.

    I think I'm going to go with the faderfox + separate mixer combination, as having everything built into your mixer necessitates taking it wherever you play...

    Mixer Reviews

    Some years ago, when I had some disposable income and dreams of being a turntablist (hah!) I splashed out on a Rane 56: http://www.rane.com/ttm56.html Rugged as fuck, lovely clean layout and all non contact faders. Good sound, and the LOUDEST headphone output I had ever heard. I never got it...

    Philosophy / cultural theory / psychoanalysis etc

    PoS is hard going. It's a cliche but you really do have to read the end before you can grasp th beginning (or at least some of it - I can't claim to have read the whole thing!) My favourite commentator/critic is Robert R. Williams - I found these two invaluable, although I was writing about...

    Bus drivers are cunts

    That was exactly the reason that made me leave London 4 years ago - commuting, whether by bus or tube made me feel like I was becoming a cunt. Avoiding commuting (to an extent) is the only way I could tolerating being back here, tbh. Now I cycle to work, which exposes you to absolutely horrible...

    Are we going to get a Tory government next election?

    Seems like not a week goes by without some more bad press for Labour on the front page. Are the Tories a shoe-in?

    METAL! Discuss

    As a total metal novice, I've been really enjoying these recently: High on Fire - Death Is This Communion Wolves In The Throne Room - Two Hunters Wraiths - Oriflamme (this is amazingly ace, better than SUNN0)) I reckon)

    60s counter-culture icons

    I dunno about their legacy, but I love RD Laing and arguing about him with my friends who are psychology academics, who's education has told them to dismiss him as a quack. Fools. Lilly is extremely good value as well, although his ketamine-induced conspiracy ravings are somewhat unhinged.
