Nice to see you counted yourself in for Incubate 2011! Hopefully we'll see you at the festival :) If there are any questions please let uw know!

Eh. If you look up videos of them at Primavera they sound pretty fucking rank, but it at the same time it probably would have been fairly entertaining to watch. If you get the opportunity you may as well take it.

I just filed a massive tax return, plus I reckon if I wait for a few months the price'll drop 50 bucks or so. The Korg DS game looks fun but I haven't seen anyone make anything that isn't shitty trance on it yet.

I finally ordered that synth thing today and then found out they just released a better one with a built-in drum machine. :(

Also, I am buying one of these: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=I-KmfcsJw68 (ANALOGUE4LIFE)

That is cheating. You are a cheater.

I have actual tape saturation. None of this plugin business.

It is odd. I imagine whoever did it would be reading this right now.

Did you download my shit four times? Cause I didn't.

I think it was supposed to accompany organists.

Chomp down. I found my old Doncamatic, so I can start ripping off Suicide.

I wanted to see what I'd be able to do in two takes (noise, then guitar) without any forethought or editing, because those things are for chumps.

Guitar kicks in at around 6 minutes if you start getting bored.

Also I'm pretty sure MD are gonna be around at the same time you are.

You may as well stay if you've got the money. Give this a burl: http://www.med!afire.com/?8lzzbfudfwy

Nice one! And yes we are, I'll send you a private message with the email address you need! :)

Wow are you planning to come all the way from Australia to the Incubate festival? That would be awesome! Hopefully we'll see you there :-)

Are you actually gonna go to that Music Unlimited thing? Make sure you go see Brotzi jr. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KrbFt3yuoWw

Needs more gunshot/explosion/airhorn samples.

Tell me Golden Plains stories.

Also, any word on whatever the hell is the deal with The Books?

Makes you look cool though. Where is Monarch, etc. rating?

Are you going to The Books for real? And can you remember any of that stuff you told me to listen to?

When I think about it, the only gigs I've seen there have been very disappointing bands. But I hope to be proven wrong this time. Did you get a ticket?

I've caved to the HiFi Bar and bought a Holy Fuck ticket. You?

Not bad! I was expecting him to be more like all those wonky post-Dilla beatmakers you seem to favour but he seems to be into early-90s East Coast hip-hop (i.e. RZA, Pete Rock, DJ Premier) more than anything else.

Hey Ziggy, how was The Drones @ Dimitron: A Benefit For Dimitra, The Corner Hotel???

Well, that's a waits off my shoulders.

Wow! The Waits is over.

If you're gonna stick to one style, keep it to half an hour. No repeat artists.

I did! It was monotonous! But good!

MAAAAAAAARGE. YOU'RE BREAKING MY HEART. MAAAAAAAAARRRRRRRRRRRGE. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=x6HwSq3sp8o

http://soundcloud.com/notmynamebro/birthday-mix-3point2 This is how viral marketing goes

figured you'd appreciate this more than anybody else on my list... http://www.thecityrises.com/2010/10/the-city-rises-044-w-galapagoose/ madness. he and i are playing at southpaw this sunday arvo. free show. come check it.

To be fair, I wasn't really expecting it to be more than $10, but I've paid more for less. ABs are playing with Fabulous Diamonds at the Tote on the 30th, so I suggest you keep that date free and easy.

Yeah, a lot of the 'songs' on that record aren't so great. They played most of the good ones on saturday. I hope you didn't feel gypped out of your $15.

Also, also - surely you must have at least enjoyed this one? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=itUuQa5O4Bs

Also, download this: http://absoluteboys.bandcamp.com/

Do whatever you think will work.

The one I'm making for you? Or vice versa?

I'd scoff at your tastes, but I wouldn't scoff at a mix. It is a gift.

How come I don't get a mix? :7(

Most of it just sounds like Autechre. It's basically inescapable at this point. There are a few tracks that nod to the whole FlyLo/Samiam broken beat thing, and more that lean towards minimal techno, but most of it is totally Ae.

I just don't think you're at the right stage of your development. You really need to have a taste for slow and uneventful music.

I'm not sure if you're ready for Brick Layer Cake.

Yeah, but that festival they are playing at can be a bit hit and miss, mainly due to the fact that 90% of the crowd go to see Bliss N Eso, Hilltop Hoods etc. etc. and have no idea who these amazing DJs are. There were fuck all people there to see Joker last year, then when his set started pumping, people came flooding haha. I'm sure those three would be doing Eastern States shows together if they are bothering with Perth! Although I must say, Perth is becoming quite big in the dubstep/electronic/hip-hop scene. Samiyam is playing at the same gig as Martyn, Toki and Illum Sphere over here too! Large!
