Hi! i'm just on the train back from blackpool and there's snow everywhere!!!
so a few things i've been meaning to blog about, firstly LASER HARP!!!!!! for those of you who have been following the quest we now A) have one and B) it works!!! there were many many tears and sleepless nights for all involved so thank you everyone who persevered. does anyone have any pics of me playing it at sheperds bush or leeds? would love to see!
we've been documenting it all and have made it into a little film split into episodes, the first two of which are now up in the members section so log in to watch, the rest will be up soon. if you are not a member then here is the trailer to give you an idea....
maybe i should ask jarre if he fancies a duet??
next up is the LB iphone application.. at last!! we have been developing this since i think before the album was even fiinished but it took a while, still good things come to those who wait. it does some really cool things, you can remix versions of the songs and sample things and have musical environments and all sorts, its quite hard to explain as you'll see below so my advice is just to try it and see! here's a very bad video of me trying to explain it that was done many months ago when i was far less skilled/ practiced at fake enthusiasm so apologies but i am geniunely excited about it!
lolz.
you can get it by clicking the iphone app button on the front page of this site.. i love my iphone. i've become one of THOSE people. never thought i'd see the day.
anyway finally its nearly christmas which I DON'T THINK I"VE EVER BEEN SO EXCITED FOR IN MY ENTIRE LIFE!!!! to get into the spirit me and the twitterers have been compiling a collaborative spotify playlist, you can listen/ add to it HERE if you have spotify, although please don't be a berk and delete other people's songs, even if you don't like them you can just press skip! (although if its fairytale of new york you have my total permission).
