The Information Generation
Just read an interesting article about the Information Generation on website called Faster than Light. It got my attention because a) it showed up as a random post on my other WordPress blog, and b) because it talks about a world where there is only “online”. It made me think about my own world...

Happy EP and other stories
The remix I did for Warp Technique is out on April 25th, 2011, on Dubmission Records. It’s called “Nowhere Dub (mistrust remix)” and is available on all the major music download sites. The track is part of the “Happy EP”, which is the final release from the band’s “Make Animals Happy” album. The full track...
2010 Round-up
I just thought I’d round up all the “mistrust” highs and lows of 2011 – more a way of documenting what’s gone on music-wise for me than anything else. It’s not a massive list, but following the advice of Jasper from Dubmission Records, I tried to make 2010 a better year than 2009…. So, what...

Ten interesting things
Ten interesting things? I’ve changed my blog theme again. I’m now using the Twenty Ten 1.1 WordPress theme. Why change it? The Revolt Basic theme was ok, but I was sick of not having sidebars that I could post links in. I’ve closed most of the reader comments on my blog. This is because lots...
Soundcloud, Myspace and Facebook
There’s a lot of good music on Soundcloud these days, and it makes me wonder whether your average music lover is heading over there to listen to their favourite band and find their latest tracks, rather than going to Myspace. When I first started putting my own music online, it was Myspace where I got...
Popcorn Slavery and Deep Space Lament remixes
Waveform Transmissions Volume 3 Popcorn Slavery (mistrust remix), the remix I did for International Observer earlier this year, is out on 14th September on Waveform Transmissions Volume 3 (label: Waveform Records). It’s available in CD and download formats, and can be ordered direct from Waveform’s website or places like Amazon and iTunes. It’s great news...

Social mistrust
In this post: Popcorn Slavery remix licensed, Half Past One surprise, and changes to my Facebook profile, Humanizer get signed, and Animat’s live rescore…. Hello again, dear Reader! I was in the middle of writing about some of my thoughts on less obvious was of promoting your music, when I got a couple of bits...
On the radio
In the last week I’ve had my very first interview on the radio, and my kids made some “well done” messages for me…. Those nice folk at Chorlton Arts Radio, part of the Chorlton Arts Festival in Manchester, UK, invited me onto one of their shows last Friday evening. My very first radio interview! I...
ConDem Nation
So, the United Kingdom has a new Government. A new start, or so we’re told. New beginnings, and all that nonsense. The wags in the media as using the title “ConDem” for the new coalition between the Conservatives and Liberal Democrats, and others have suggested that we’re now living in “ConDem Nation”. I know that...
Getting a Number 1 Hit with a Facebook campaign
So, Ultravox didn’t make it to Number 1 in the UK top 40 singles charts with their single “Vienna”. The song didn’t even reach the top 100. Did anyone think it might, especially as the song is nearly 30 years old? Well, a lot of people did, especially those people who were involved in the...
Vote Now
Labour? Conservative? LibDems? Nah!!! Vote Ultravox Vienna for Number 1 this week! The campaign to get Ultravox’s Vienna to Number 1 in the UK singles chart enters its final week. The song spent 4 weeks at Number 2 in 1981, beaten only by John Lennon’s Imagine and Joe Dolce’s Shaddup yer face! So why not...
