Had a great night at Truffle Shuffle last Monday with none other than special guest DJ Count Skylarkin, who joined us at Bacchus fresh from doing a music review at BBC Radio Live earlier that day. The Count brought down a fine selection of rhythm & blues and even touched upon some ska, and whipped the crowd up into a dancing frenzy with classic tracks such as It’s Your Voodoo Working by Charles Sheffield as well as his own production, a bootleg of Son of a Preacher Man titled ‘Dub of a Preacher Man’ which will be coming out very shortly. He also regularly plays festivals such as The Big Chill, Beachdown & Truck Festival in what is know as The Disco Shed, also puts on superb nights at The Big Chill House in London &  at The Cellar in Oxford, so be sure to check out the links below

Really great night and was a real pleasure to have him down, big up to the Count!!!

Skylarkin’ Soundsystem

The Disco Shed

This New Years Eve I’ll be playing alongside fellow Truffle DJ Jon Gillies with a special set from our regular Truffle Shuffle night at Bacchus Late Bar! at £7.50 entry all night and free booze for the early party-goers, this gives all your other bog standard Kingston mush nights a run for its money

Fun starts at 10pm and goes on till 3am!

Heard some bad new’s the other day, one of my favourite Friday night out’s in Kingston has been scrapped..

Lavish at Bacchus was the real alternative Friday in Kingston upon Thames, it’s been going for some 6 odd years and was a welcome break from a hard weeks work, so many good times in there, used to party out to a mixture of disco, indie (old and new!), motown, hip hop classic’s, bit o’ drum & bass (nothing too mental ya know?) it’s such a shame that the club would not hold onto this one..

Well here’s to you Lavish, thanks for making my Friday nights in the K’Hole all that whole lot more fun..

A Lavish Classic:
The Jam – Town Called Malice

This and other photo’s from outer space have been snapped by Nasa’s Hubble Telescope. When you think this is not just computer generated art, but the real thing, it kinda dawns on you how mad the universe really is! and how cool would that look hanging up in your living room.

Just put a bunch of new photo’s up of my trip to Luz, Portugal. Good friend’s of mine Davie & Clare invited me over for a short break in their rented villa, had a wicked time and much needed break the ol’ computer screens haha.. take a look here

Very interesting article on the so called ‘green shoots’ that measure economic growth, for example:

“The crane index. How many cranes are visible from a given point. Really a measure of optimism about the prospects for commercial property.”

I kinda believe in this stuff although you gotta tread carefully when making your own green shoots analogy or ‘index’ as it’s know – sun cream sales going up doesn’t necessarily mean consumers have more money to spend, it just means the sun is out!

Can you see any green shoots appearing? got your own index? feel free to share it in a comment below..

I would say Tony works for his money, while Beckham just rides you lot giving him all the media attention haha…
