Claremont 56 003 is out now!

Side A sees another balearic sunshine adventure from us with floating acoustic guitar melodies riding along the head nodding groove which takes you to a place far better than the english summer.

Side B see’s one of the best Idjut boy remixes I’ve ever heard.
An epic 22 minute journey that sucks you in and out of your
cosmic consciousness. A blissful gem of a track. This is sure to
become a classic. Limited to a run of 800 copies.

Rachel Davies, the singer that sang on my album, performed with one of my favourite female artists last night at the Bordeline. If you don't know about Ane Brun, go and buy the cd 'Spending time with morgan'. Brilliant Album. The gig was amazing, Ane sang beautifully and Rachel performed like a pro. Hoorar!

I had an amazing time in Japan and just wanted to thank Yui who looked after me for the whole trip and fed me some weird and wonderful things! and thanks to Kuni and Marie who let me stay in their lovely house.

I met some brilliant people as well, so hi to Ariga, Kae, Jun, Ban, Sinchiko, Akio (great sushi chef!) and everybody else who came down to the gigs. Hopefully see everyone again soon!
