About me:

News of a Phosphene live show coming up at Stirling's Le Weekend Festival on Sunday 31st May... More details here!
I live in Glasgow, Scotland, where I make music under the name Phosphene, on my own and sometimes with friends. There've been 3 albums so far and recent releases include a single which has guest appearances from Bridget St. John, Isobel Campbell & Bill Wells on one side and a collaboration with Nalle on the other, from Pickled Egg Records and an e.p. on the estimable Rusted Rail label of Galway. Previous collaborators have included John McKeown (1990s/Yummy Fur) and saxophonists Lol Coxhill & Raymond MacDonald. There is a myspace music page for Phosphene and another for Electroscope, a duo formed in 1996 by my friend Gayle and I... see links below. I've made all sorts of music radio programmes for the BBC and, on a station called Radio Six International, I have a weekly show called the Soundwave. This goes out from Glasgow at www.radiosix.com, on Sky/Astra channel 0195 and on FM stations in Slovakia and New Zealand. Apart from this, I've written a book about the early days of Syd Barrett & Pink Floyd and their wonderful Piper at the Gates of Dawn album. You can find out more on all of this at: http://www.phosphene.debrett.net Phosphene live shows are rare, but the one with Nalle & Colleen at the Britannia Panopticon music Hall in Glasgow on 20th June 2007 was a lot of fun and a great success. There are a couple of photos here and more at the Phosphene website. This is the lovely poster Iker Spozio designed for the event. In late 2006 I released a long overlooked album by the amazing Delia Derbyshire. Two vinyl editions have come and gone, but a cd edition is now available from the Melodybar distro: www.apexonline.com/melodybar and an lp version of another gem from the KPM library catalogue by Ron Geesin is now pressed and ready for your turntable! Please read the blog notes on the project for more details. There's also an interview which has recently gone up at: http://www.foxydigitalis.com/foxyd/feature_detail.php?id=194 if you fancy a look! .. I edited my profile with Thomas' Myspace Editor V4.4

Who I'd like to meet:
