It's been a while since I've blogged, but recently, I've had a lot of time. So, I might get back in to it.

I think I'll start doing more reviews, posting more songs that I've been really in to, and I'll also post interviews that I've done.

Busy Girl

So, I'm a bit rubbish with this whole blogging thing at the moment. But as always I do have a fairly valid reason to be.

Well, I'm a student and a radio presenter as well as the occasional on screen presenter - and so I have a very busy lifestyle. I eat sushi on the weekend, after long days of shopping. And I like to spend my Sundays reading classic novels, after going for a walk by the river. Then week days, well...that's one big busy schedule that tends to merge in to one (most months). So, as you can see I'm very busy.

I really wish that most of that was true, the first sentence is true. But the rest isn't. I've never tried sushi, and never really intend on doing so. I don't like shopping in shops on a Saturday because it's always too busy esp. since I live in London - I prefer online shopping. And Sunday's aren't spent reading novels, they are spent doing homework that's due in for Monday. So I am busy but not that kind of busy, my schedule and lifestyle is completely different to that (at the moment). I think that would be my ideal of being 'busy' but in actual fact I do much more than that.

ANYWAYZZZZ:

The Elektrik Cave - Artwork

So, I know on facebook and on twitter I sent out a few posts about anyone creating my art work - and then I had a huge realisation that no one will probably respond (which was only a little bit true as a very few did, and none of which seem particularly serious about doing it).

So, I'd seen this guys artwork sort of bobbing around on the net and on his brothers album cover and I really liked his stuff, so I emailed him not really expecting a reply. A day or two later I got a reply. And I was over the moon! And he was so lovely too, which was great! 

Anyway, a long story short - he created the art work for my show, and I absolutely love it! Its amazing. So, I thought I'd share it with you guys! 

Its so good, so I was well chuffed with it!

Portico Quartet - 18th Oct. 2012 gig

Ticket for Portico Quartet

So, on the 18th October 2012, I went to see Portico Quartet for the first time, and they were really really good! A mate of mine had just interviewed them, and was like do you want to come with me to see them live, and I was like "well yeah!" - so we got our tickets sorted and watched from the members lounge. 

After seeing Ed Sheeran earlier that week, I would argue that the set that Portico Quartet had to offer was just phenomenal in comparison. Don't get me wrong Ed was good, but Portico Quartet were amazing. 

Th acoustics in the Roundhouse is always perfect for live performances - because of the shape, so the music just travelled round the edge, almost awakening the walls of the old "turntable engine shed" (I quote from wikipedia).

Taylor McFerrin also did a set, and he was great. He was so good, I played him in my first radio show on Roundhouse Radio.

He's also the son of Bobby McFerrin - so I expected that he would be really good! 

I didnt get to see DJ LV's set - but I'm sure it was good.

And that was the blog post that I was meant to post back in October - but I've been so busy I havent had much time. 

Remember to tune in to The Elektrik Cave on Roundhouse Radio, for an hour of Electronic music from around the globe.
