Hunted. A call to action
Come 11pm tonight and I shall be in tears. Angry, frustrated and horrified tears stoked by a sense of helplessness. Because I, like so many I know, will be watching Dispatches’ documentary Hunted and thinking there but for the grace of location go I. I’m lucky. I live in a society where the choices I make about the people I choose to love does not … Continue reading Hunted. A call to action

Phillip Seymour Hoffman: The patch that could not repair
Another untimely death. Another social media storm of shock, pity and dismay. Grief pouring out of keyboards, lighting up radio phone-in desks and 24 hour news channels. All justified. But according to some tweeting away in the comfort of their safe so-called addiction free lives, souls such as Philip Seymour Hoffman deserve no compassion. The choices addicts like he made are just that, choices, and … Continue reading Phillip Seymour Hoffman: The patch that could not repair
Wildblood and Queenie’s Fabulous February Wonders
Well to say we’ll be glad to see the back of January would be a vast, plastered casted, A&E-ed out, painkiller sponsored understatement. (Queenie would type this column herself but it….may…take…some…time…) So instead guiding you through this month’s must-do soundtrack is my working right hand, Queenie’s working left ear and our combined gratefulness. Sometimes being in a double act is priceless. February is proving such … Continue reading Wildblood and Queenie’s Fabulous February Wonders

Perfect Distractions: Waze & Odyssey Real Good Like
Sometimes all you need to know about a track is in the title. So yeah, this is Real Good Like. A deep but deftly groovy track that insists on a wiggle. Waze & Odyssey impressed live at Audio in 2013 (they are rapidly becoming the missus’ fav double DJ act) and continue to do so with this slice of vinyl heaven. I’m smitten. Again. Waze … Continue reading Perfect Distractions: Waze & Odyssey Real Good Like
Perfect Distractions: I Am A Camera The Legendary Children (Up Yours Severino + Hifi Sean Remix)
This tune ain’t too popular in our house right now. It makes us wanna go out dancing. And we can’t. Not quite yet anyway. Never thought we’d miss dark rooms, sweaty bodies, random strangers, old friends and dirty dark basslines so much. And its only been six weeks. Gawd knows how long we’ve got to go till my missus’ precious, precious head, arm and elbow … Continue reading Perfect Distractions: I Am A Camera The Legendary Children (Up Yours Severino + Hifi Sean Remix)

Wildblood and Queenie’s (delayed) January Wonders
A little late…due to circumstances (and stairs) beyond our control. So that was that. 2013. Done and dusted. Glorious but gone. Time to, as Carole Sylan once sung, look ahead. First up is the gloriously kooky koolness of Various Artists fabric 72 on Fabric in which every element of electronica is represented with a chaotic charm that’s bound to enchant. So to will the sound … Continue reading Wildblood and Queenie’s (delayed) January Wonders
Querying Queenie’s Resolutions (or thoughts from the pre-Ouch House)
In a world before her accident, when all she had to worry about was the prospect of snow on the ground and the annual trek to work, the missus wrote this column for Gscene. It made me laugh then. It makes my laugh now. Enjoy Queenie at her camp finest as she ponders her new Years resolutions. Little did we know she should of vowed … Continue reading Querying Queenie’s Resolutions (or thoughts from the pre-Ouch House)
