This Week 19/8 – New Dawn n all that

 
Commentary

“Though no one can go back and make a brand new start, anyone can start from now and make a brand new ending.” Carl Bard

“However long the night, the dawn will break. African Proverb this is not me being gloomy, it’s just a general feeling this week. The sun’s just come out actually so let’s disregard it

“Oh boo fucking hoo. The generic gratzia girl robots and generic FHM caged boy monkeys don’t like the Jamacian patois influence on our “english” children. Here’s a deal you stop speaking with that Australian intonation where everything sounds like a fucking question and that faux Californian croaky voice straight outta The Hills Hollywood and we can then talk about the INNIT culture in the mean time go sit on your own fist innit ya get me? Luke UnaRight then a new dawn n’ all that…

Shiny new site’s almost killed I this week so you’ll excuse my lack of social awareness in the rantos. It’s mainly involved not sleeping much and staring at a screen. In fact, that’s most weeks but… anyway.Trust your eyes and ears like the new stuff. Bear with us, it’s just about finished but any little tweaks by all means hit me up with abuse. Let us talk not of the ridiculousness of the prison sentences handed down and the use of tazer guns…

First and foremost let us worry about our ears and the greatness that disappeared in last week’s PIAS/Sony distro fire. “A warehouse fire is a particularly vicious form of bad luck.” http://musictechpolicy.wordpress.com/2011/08/09/please-help-uk-indie-labels-harmed-in-pias-warehouse-fire/

Rather late on this one but the Quietus recommend twenty 20 suggestions digital purchases to help them out. And an update on things here.

Did you read about Tongy and Shara Nelson and the restraining order? Jesus, what’s going on there!

No idea what’s going on here but I like the cats click the picture repeatedly. Amused me anyway.

As you can see, the site’s changed and the content has too massively!! Cats? No mate, we don’t talk about cats no more… don’t put main images as that either, definitely not.

Projects that make a positive difference to people in cities – kind of. "We collectively Urban Age/Deutsche Bank gave 50,000 to this project which is a massive amount." Well yeah it is a massive amount to me but… well, yeah I don’t know. Stop being so cynical Mr Troup.

Right, if you’ll excuse me I’m gonna go have a little dance. (I wrote this bit last night… had a good dance).
Thanks for sticking with us… the fact you even read this load of old biscuits means a lot… maybe you don’t. Maybe I’m just talking to myself… that’s fine, I’m good at that.
