    Isla's Interests
GeneralMusic - listening to, playing, dancing to, watching... I play viola with the London Breakbeat Orchestra (www.myspace.com/londonbreakbeatorchestra)... studied classical singing at Trinity College of Music, Greenwich, for two and a half years before jacking it all in to travel in Central and South America... where I bought an old SLR camera... and discovered photography... You can some of my photos in my pics, and on my flickr http://www.flickr.com/photos/7739421@N03/ and a recent night I did at http://www.braindrop.co.uk/BD013pics/raverspage.html
MusicOh where to start... I like pretty much everything... that's a lie - there are several genres (rap, country, pop) I'm really not a fan of, but, as with everything in life, there are exceptions to every rule. I like artists who push the bounderies, like Bjork, CocoRosie, Radiohead, Venetian Snares, Lamb... When I find my feet tapping even when I don't think I'm in the mood, like The Knife, Fischerspooner, Four Tet, Mr Scruff... Music that can soothe me even after the most stressful of days, like Block Head, Bonobo, Plaid, Amon Tobin, Sigur Ross, Stina Nordenstam... Music that just plain gets me dancing like an idiot, like Prodigy, The McMash Clan, Pendulum, Andy C, 2 Many DJ's...
MoviesDancer In The Dark, Oh Brother Where Art Thou?, Pi, The Woodsman, What's Eating Gilbert Grape, Amelie, He Loves Me He Loves Me Not, Lady Vengeance, Battle Royal, Requiem For A Dream, The Beat That My Heart Skipped, Natural Born Killers, Barton Fink, and so on and so on... (arty, usually foreign, and, most importantly, not from Hollywood!)
TelevisionTelevision is the curse of Satan. Truly it is.
BooksCatch-22, One Flew Over the Cuckoos Nest, Clockwork Orange (if you like the film, READ IT), Orwell, Fry, Rushdie, Safran Foer, Hunter.S. Thompson....

Wooohaaaaa!!! Braindrop is throwing its very first boat party on Saturday 6 June.

The vessel is specially equipped to hold large groups of people (and all the extra bass bins we can squeeze on). Her name is The Dutch Master and she be a mighty fine boat too!

It's going to be a ridiculously fun rinse up. However, if you think you can get away with being remotely serious and/or cool at this party - ye be mistaken.
The Braindrop Boat Rave is fancy dress: Pirate's from the 80's.
Arrgh...better get thinkin what ye gonna wear.

D&B / DUBSTEP / TECHNO / BREAKS / ELECTRO / HARDCORE / HIP HOP / GABBA / BREAKCORE / PSYTRANCE / RAVE... and lots more!

The boat will leave St.Katharines Pier (London) at 9pm and return at 2am. Tickets are £20 and you can get them from TICKETWEB.

For more info check www.braindrop.co.uk. Arrrrgh me hearties!
