The fifth edition of SonicRecycler series of events curated by the ever-so-lovely Sprawl folk runs on Saturday 9th May at Brentford Watermans Centre. There'll be performers, musicians, films, installations and interactive presentations. I recommmend you catch Bill Wells Trio and Steve Beresford. I'll also be there in a DJ capacity. Having suggested to them that I'll doing an off-the-cuff mix of acid house and arabic music, they've decided to partner me up with Deborah who'll be belly dancing. Live stuff starts at 7.30pm but I'm on at 5.30pm.

A belly dancer....yesterday.

I've already mentioned this before, but you all have very busy lives (probably on bloody Twitter) so here it is again. I'll be playing on the Touch night as part of the excellent Short Circuit Festival on Saturday 16th May. Playing live will be Norway's Biosphere; who's recent 'Wireless' live album plays out like a greatest hits collection. BJ Nilsen and Hildur Gudnadóttir; Hildur's latest album 'Without Sinking' is fucking amazing. Full Stop. Philip Jeck & Gavin Byars; Jeck rules, his 'Sand' album still knocks me for six.

Chris Watson (he's mates with Bill Oddie don't you know), is doing some installation thing that will probably be all nature-like and ambient. And there'll be me who'll probably ruin it all by playing Enya or something totally ill-judged.
