Thanks.

So this is a small post to say thank you to my friends who helped me put up my show space. It was classic me, leaving it to the last minute, but then a final cut meltdown set me back a couple of hours meaning there was about 40 minutes to put everything up and save my degree.

It was the most amazing gesture for so many people to step in and help Theo, Rory, Harvey, Georgia, Phillipe, Isaac, Rosie, Nick, Jason and even Martin Anderson helped get my screen and pictures up on the wall.

True friends. Thanks.

I took a prism to the 3D laser scanner over at the science and engineering department and it got confused.

Darkstar - News From Nowhere

The second album from London-based trio Darkstar is one of the most interesting electronic albums I’ve heard in a good while. Their previous album ‘North’ was brooding and dark, but at the same time very organic, like a parallel universe version of Animal Collective, with more linear ideas, and attention to strong structure. They are a evidently a tight knit band who happen to use electronic instruments, rather than being a congregating group of producers. Every part they play is for the greater good of the song, with bass, keys and percussion all playing off of each other, creating a unified, wholesome sound.

With News From Nowhere, they’ve become slightly more psychedelic. Brilliant rhythms on Timeaway, (above), and Amplified Ease are breathtaking, keeping a steady danceable beat, but interspersed with off-beat accents and hard-panned stabs of percussion, which create a sweeping, echoey backbone to the songs. The vocals carry stronger melodies than they did in ‘North’, and the instrumentation is a lot more varied and layered.

It could be summed up as simply a fascinating album, with enormous amounts of creativity and expression.
