About me: I'm several things, none of which seem to allow me the time to be the others but primarily, I am:
A Teacher (Of Sound, Film & Web Design)
A DJ (Of some merit...well I've been one for about 15 years and it makes me happy that I play out every week and still enjoy it, and that others seem to enjoy it too.)
A Film-maker (Although it's been a little while...) I recently completed a music video for the band Cap Pas Cap which will be online in the coming weeks. NO wait... Here it is. (It was actually quite a while ago now)
..
A Producer (Of my own Music, and for others...will add some soon)
I've finished a few different things recently. I produced and recorded the last Groom album "All this happened, more or less" and recently completed recording of their new mini album. Check out their musics below.
I produced the first album from Norwegian Splatterfolk duo Thinguma*jigsaw "Awake in Whitechapel" excerpts of which can be heard on their myspace. Both bands do really good things and I'm delighted I've worked with them.

remeber the days when school involved going in to do the intense task of learning the first six letters of the alphabet, you could do the equivalent of a MA in coloring in humpty dumpty, you would do a brain shite in order to learn all the long words for your friday spelling test and god forbid you might have to do JOINT WRITING!!!! :O :O :O

Haha, thank you! Sean is most definitely my brother, no subterfuge employed here.
But he's also my best friend, so it works well.
Episode 9's my favourite, however contentless it is.
I've written a movie screenplay, but it bore too much resemblance to a Chuck Palahniuk book. Our dinner was lovely, though the potatoes were quite hard. Was telling wil that I liked your latest, I say cut 'em long.
Thanks nicky, that means a lot to me. My podcast is awful silly though, so y'know, you don't need to listen. I really like your show, it's very entertaining.
