Reeve and I are off to New Cross for another Chainlink gig this evening and there's no Parasite song about that but there's always this. https://t.co/pMXOEDjKyw
Reeve and I are actually in a position to legitimately say "see you down at the Waterfront" tonight as we're playing with Chainlink supporting Madball at a sold out show. Oh yes. #madball#chainlink#waterfront#livemusic#norwich
It's been three years, here's an updated profile pic.
For consistency I am in the same location doing the same activity on the same day of the year.
Happy New Year!
Just been recording some synth bits for a potential new Parasite track.
Used the modular to do a slightly squelchy lead melody, and then an arpeggiated bit for texture, then used the Roland D-50 to quite literally add some atmosphere. One cheeky preset to add some cheese :D
Here's some rare shots of a Parasite gig at the much missed Queen Charlotte in Norwich from around that time. I think the action shot is from the last time Radioactive was played.
Set: Déjà/ TALOOMB/ Roonion/Yoga/ Training For 2012/ Sonic Dist/ SYM/ YWBMIIWT/ YNWITYW/ Radioactive
Currently cooking an awesome curry with my ipod on shuffle. This came on: https://t.co/ljLSPB8x0K
and I didn't realise what nostalgia I had for this. Took me right back to moping about during my last year of uni, recording the Parasite album "Second Sight" and being miserable :D
The album title "Second Sight" was inspired by Blancmange's "Mange Tout" btw. Genius level punning.
This was 2008, and, in the unlikely event you saw me perform live back then, then I'm hoping to recreate some of that experience for 2025. Watch this space...
...that have had enough hits and that people would have actually heard of.
The songs that actually stay in the charts for years, like a particular Killers song, merely highlight the lack of imagination in playlisting and make it pointless to look back at hits of particular time.
Apparently there's going to be a Band Aid 40, but this time it's just using vocals from the 1984, 2004 and 2014 mixes.
Is it too cynical for me to suggest that this is because charts are now meaningless due to streaming and we've a lack of homegrown successful artists? 1/
For context here are apparently some of the biggest songs of this year: https://t.co/RSk3wTIOJA
Mostly American pop stars, or navel-gazing nostalgia form yesteryear.
I don't think you could cobble a Band Aid 40 together with enough current UK stars... 2/
Announcement 1: New Single
Our new single “Pumpkin Spice” heralds the new season with a new flavour, available to stream on the usual platforms or to download from bandcamp when you pre-order the forthcoming Parasite album “Niche”.

I am still doing music by the way, I'm just not posting on Twitter quite so much...
Just recorded some synth parts for new Parasite stuff and may possibly be recording some vocals later on...
