It’s high time I shared some of my musical experiments again on here. I’m driving my Hydrasynth here with Logic Pro for iPad and making live tweaks to the synth on the fly.

Cheeky request. Can someone send me a few sats, testing that I’ve fixed my wallet.

It’s very orange and it sounds beautiful. The hydrants takes pride of place on my desk! Here are some sounds I’ve recorded so far -

Using ChatGPT I generated a Simpsons version of myself. I loved the result!

If you live close to Reading like we do, you’ll be familiar with this wind turbine. Turns out that there is a path right alongside it and you can get very close to it. On a calm day like yesterday, I couldn’t really hear it until we stood further away from it.

GM everyone. Lovely day out there. Too nice not to go for a pre-work walk!

Taken yesterday using the Leica Lux app on my iPhone, exposure-3 of an old tree root. It looks like something out of a Tolkien story. @PappasBland thanks for your post on Substack that reminded me of this great app.

More coffee and cake this morning. Why not? This was at the Canteen in old Portsmouth which is in an old cellar. Very good. I recommend it highly!

Almost charged up and then onto Southses for a good old blast of sea air!!

Stopped off at Mollies in Wallingford. Very funky cafe indeed! I’ll nip inside and take some more photos. We’re out in the garden at the moment. Out in the garden! Spring is here! The coronation chicken baguettes were gorgeous! Great coffee!

Bolton House, located at 14–16 Cullum Street in the City of London, is a notable example of Art Nouveau architecture with Moorish influences. Completed in 1907, it was designed by architect A. I. Selby.  The building’s façade features blue and white faience tiles, arched windows, and elegant columns. A frieze above the first-floor windows showcases foliage designs typical of the Art Nouveau style. The shield incorporated into the design is believed to represent the heraldic device of Prior Bolton.  Cullum Street, where Bolton House is situated, was established following the Great Fire of London in 1666 and is named after Sir Thomas Cullum.  By 1950, Bolton House served as the premises for The Navigators & General Insurance Company. In 1984, the building underwent renovation, during which two additional storeys were added.  Today, Bolton House stands as a rare example of Art Nouveau architecture in the City of London, reflecting the early 20th-century architectural trends and the city’s rich history.

For those who may have had trouble playing my new track earlier, I’ve uploaded it to Wavlake.

I’ve released a new track and you can find it here. It’s an audio recording from the last video that I shared, kind of, just a bit more arranged!

This is the first track I’ve put together using Groove rider 2 on the iPad and it is excellent

Having figured out curation here, I’m going to get deeply involved in this. Here is one of the projects I’m running this year. View article →
