Spring and strings. Love and love. That’s what keeps me going. That’s what makes me grin. And this makes me grin like a girl possessed. I’m still not sure why it always has to be the strings. Why a part of me can’t get by without strings alongside my bass. As the world finally gets that deep house I’ve banging on about, I’ll always tread … Continue reading Perfect Distractions: Thomas Gandey Love Is Love

Fine tailoring and flipped out housewives. A legend pulling a shopping trolley and a ginger envy. The coolest shell suit and the perfect nightmare neighbours. The famous musing on post-celebrity and androgyny rocking out. Saskia be Brauw and Anrej Pejic. Iselin Steiro and The Thin White Duke. Desire, arousal and cool. I’m in awe of an aging pop icon. I’m in love with a pale … Continue reading Perfect Distractions: David Bowie ‘The Stars (Are Out Tonight)’

Continue reading Perfect Distractions: Charles Green ‘Fresh Ground’
I’ve spent the weekend trying to define the myths used to excuse homophobia in viral anti-gay marriage campaigning. My eyes hurt. My soul is in danger of becoming damaged. But luckily a tune has been spinning through my eardrums and reminding me there is more to life than deadlines. There’s the dance. (Boy am I gonna have one come the 8th of March) So here … Continue reading Perfect Distractions: Mario Basanov feat. Jeremy Glenn ‘More for The Less’ (Mario ReDub) Apersonal Music
