Played on a beautiful metal tugboat moored on the river Seine in the centre of Paris supporting the legendary Silver Apples with Vanishin Twin. We pulled off a very intense psychedelic show and the crowd loved us from the start. Great vibe and a very cool debut Paris show for us. Also played live in session the evening before on France Intel to 60, 000 listeners.

Beatless, Windmill Brixton
Ten year gap since the last time I played at the Windmill Brixton. Played a solo electronic set of very abstract library outer space sounds. A quiet evening after the ferocity of the previous event.

Club Hell
A very sophisticated event in a south London art space with fire dancers and satanic rituals, a chamber orchestra. I played a set of pulsating electronic noise. Enjoyed this night very much indeed. Uranus in the Underworld

Lightspeed Vortex
First show with the twin noise guitar and drum trio of mfu, Sean Derrick Cooper Marquardt and jonas Golland. We played a beautifully loud a nd ferocious wave of sound, entrancing and powerful. one of my fave nights. Sean quite a showman. Incorporated friends of mine in other acts including Grace Kuhl and the British Public and Justin Paton live electronics. was a great friendly evening and New River Studios round the corner of my house is an amazing community arts venue.

Dalston Music Festival

Ryans Bar, Stoke Newington London
I start again keeping record of shows. This one was very laid back - only the band I was supporting were in the audience, but I liked that, I just wanted to play for myself and try out new styles of playing. completely improvised new samples - used only 3 machines, sampler synth and theremin which I placed very close to the keyboards. walking distance from home. a quiet night out

Voyage to the Magic Galaxy, Apiary Studios, London
First big event I put on at the wonderful Apiary studios. Very well attended and a relaxed atmosphere, perhaps partially due to the hypnotic audio/visuals in the bar made by mfu and Monika Bancyrr. Astrakan and Lunch Money, both great psych jazz bands palyed and I did a set with Jake Jellica and Edmund Ommm, both on synth. some really nice moments of beautiful sounds.

Restart of Performance log
Since the show with Pram I have performed perhaps another 100+ which I wish now I had kept track of and had not stopped documenting. some of them have been very surreal, some tremendous, a few dreadfull ones.

BAD TIMING with PRAM and XYLITOL
Pram are a lovely group of people and experiencing their music again made me realize suprisingly just how much of an influence they were on the development of my own sound.

University of Bath
Awful night of Sanctimonioous avant-flub experienced through a head-splitting migraine. death. Sinister bald guy at the turntable kept playing Can records while staring at us like he invented it.

CUBECINEMA bristol 9th Anniversary party
Cube 9 from Outer Space - One of the best gigs ever. The Cube in Bristol is a great community run venue, with a beatiful old cinema theatre. It was the 9th anniversary of the Cube, and everyone dressed up in the most amazing sci-fi fancy dress. I headlined the show - it was very loud and chaos and it was a joy to see an audience of moshing aliens. Played bowls with speaker monitors, blew the main PA. Total rock!

Qwack(e) Event Bristol
Amazing event of several artists on two facing stages. brilliant evening. Each artist had 20 minutes to play with the first and last five minutes improvising with the next musician on the stage across.
