Wearing headphones on public transport does not stop other people from hearing the sound of your bodily functions, despite what your brain might tell you.

Thea - Totem Mix by The Devious Corporation
I'm getting pirated on YouTube! I'm onto my third takedown notice as various jolly rogers try to pass my work off as their own. I was going to let it pass, flattered that they liked my stuff enough to steal it, but then I remembered the ph…

Didn't Ed Fielding do the collages for the main page here?

I thought it was fitting that Goldfrapp were performing Clay beneath these lasers on Thursday night. A 'thank you' to Alan Turing written in morse code in the sky. Hmmm.

Salford Lowry gig 27th March 2014
Thea: This is a much better version than the simulcast. The vocals are confident and boosted with a deep backing. All round much more dramatic and punchy. Loved this on the night. And you can really hear the trumpet. Nicely filmed too!

There will also be a laser show in the sky above the Lowry, a morse code Thank You to Alan Turing! Not part of the gig, but a big plus. http://www.frequency.com/video/two-of-most-powerful-lasers-have-been/157173195/-/5-4225

The codes are non transferable, it says on the email. Although how they can tell I don't know. I got a pre sale code! Tomorrow morning is going to be full on. I hope everybody's balls roll ;-)

I thought Alison looked cool in the live performance, very Bowie too as far as I was concerned ;) Very Monroe, now I've watched My Week With Marylin.

Dreams, and your subconscious mind...
Cheers, Ponygurl! Um... it's not really up there on my wish list - public sex with k d lang. The entire All Blacks squad, definitely, but not the androgynous chanteuse. Although I sat on the front row when she sang hallelujah and I have to say…

'Thea' remixes announced
Now I like the WaWa mix. That's definitely going in the right direction. Builds nicely but keeps you waiting for the big stuff. They should pay one remixer to do a big, definitive number (like say Freemason's Uninvited) rather than split…

It's...different. I would never change a main melody line, and definitely not in a main vocal. But it's...different. the album version of the song is a little unconventional in that very respect. That's probably why the mixer can�…

Me and Sonap are going. There's a cheap meal deal at Harvester right opposite The Lowry in the Outlet Mall, which we did before the cinema event last week. If the weather is good you can sit outside. Don't drink in Lime next door! Massivel…

Glad you liked it @Carpy! Thanks @Jeronimooo, the video was a bit of a quickie. @HolyOwl, I did try to dance it up, but it sounded like those old Jivebunny records from the 80s! I wonder if Matt Pop could have a go ;-)

After all your lovely comments, I thought I'd make a little movie to go with it. Found footage.

Manchester Lowry Vue was flawless. The films were mesmerising and I've never seen or heard Alison so clearly. What a beautiful voice. Did anyone else notice, about two songs in, the beckon-and-very-assertive-FINGER-UP! motion (more volume on vo…
