video evidence from the old cinema

it is with keen excitement that i might now be able to reveal the following video evidence from the wonderful 'rubbert twist & firends' live extravaganza, which occurred at the old capitol cinema in mainz, germany, last september. i was fortunate enough to be invited onstage to join the splendid people that are rubbert twist in performing renditions of two of my own pieces, hailing from the fbcfabric & reindeer album. be sure to sit back and enjoy the spectacle captured in full psychedelic accuracy.





once again, i must extend a big thank you to rubbert twist for inviting me to perform my own set of iron filings and sellotape material, as well as for the opportunity of taking to the stage with them also. here's to many future events in similar veins, and good times to all those that may find themselves involved. ever onwards and upwards then.

keep warm, take care

papervehicle and assorted ephemera

dearest readers. again, so much time passing, with so few precious moments to document the happenings. all is a whir of clicking and crackling obsolete machinery here. the midnight oil is burning bright and constant, the plates are all spinning at the edge of control and the thick winter onset is creeping up around the safehouse, threatening to breach the compound.

still, the typewriter keys continue to clatter, the recording equipment continues to preserve events and the decorative stamp ploughs on with great endurance. the papervehicle book and first album re-release are at last upon us. fix yourselves copies directly, for it is surely one of the greatest audio documents in the world of alternative rap music and how the book contains a vast wealth of fascinating facts regarding the case.


on halloween i found myself at the knertz headquarters of oskar ohlson and winterismyname for a gathering of close friends to celebrate the occassion. oskar and ms winter had pulled out all of the stops to turn the location into a full-blown halloween dream-sequence with each room leading us all deeper and futher into a mesmerising hollow of grotesquely curious fairytales.

i was also fortunate enough to be invited to perform a small set, and took the opportunity to play a host of old favourties along with a healthy selection of songs from the iron filings and sellotape release, which are a good deal of fun to play indeed. the rather awesome 'no more fun' from the knertz family also graced us with an unplugged performance, and how splendid it was indeed.


the halloween bash also served as a release party for the wonderful new pumpernickle release, which you simply must secure yourself a copy of. the only sad part being that filkoe could not join us for the festivities, being trapped in north america at the time. how he was very much there in spirit though, his presence could be felt in the cartoonish nightmare in which we were embroiled.

recent weeks have also afforded me the wonderful opportunity of crossing paths with some of the skribble gebibble family on my own adopted-home turf, which was awesome indeed, and how it transpires that i will be paying a visit to oberhausen for an impromptu performance this coming thursday, as well as a new exciting collaboratory plan being in the works.

onwards and upwards then. time is short and i must attend to a host of other bits in pieces, including working on a new raft of vocal guest spots for a host of splendid projects indeed. so, i shall away, but shall indeed endevour to find time to word futher exploits as the winter continues to tighten its grip around us. til then...

keep safe and warm
