Thank you my man. Your support has always been dopesauce

A secret-squirrel told me I might be back to Aus in June for some shows....*watch this space*

It's true. Weird. But true.

Thanks for any Australian hombres who dug on this release. Bless.

It's very dubby. And it means "Mercy And Forgetting" auf Deutsch (in German).

It's an ep about lettin' go, getting of meds, and little rebirths. Brotherman Brendon Moeller continues to be super support and fellow soldier in the cause of middle-life techno journeys. Older, fatter, deafer, hopefully more bearable to live with. Well, that's me anyway.

Nice I like

The kids here...they are...unrelenting. Which, fortunately, has meant lots of work for me 0_o I played 7-11am, then, 4-530am (LIVE) that night at one of Berlin's most special venues, Stattdbad Wedding. A massive, erm, swimming pool.

From here: - http://t.co/5FxAFYSN

Days of living in Berlin have slid, inexplicably into months, and now years...

Or, at least, on the cusp of a second year after so many years visiting this sacred place. Presently, winter sings its way softly, darkly into these grey-stoned streets. Some mornings, I'm woken by the dry echoes of tiny-hammers. Below my balcony - workmen, crouching along the street, replacing old, worn stones with new ones, tapping a brittle Germanic Blues. Moist, insistent, flirtatious at first – and then suddenly hard, cold and mute, like a scorned lover, a sleeping whirlwind. The trees, all the while complicit – shedding silently their glory, radiant, austere and unmoving.

There’s a world in every passing hour here, and the crows know this. They stand guard – for hours, unmoving, atop old lampposts. I wish for half their patience, their knowing, their lean, unwavering intent.

I rise late, and later still after shows. In the last month, I’ve been roused to perform at 12am, 4am, 7am….any time until 11am, when the sun is at its peak. By 4pm, vanishing again to be forgiven by the mist. Any given day, any given night. On call, drawn to strange bordellos the world over. So it is.

Some days now, 2 hours of daylight are all which bathe me skantly, before the inky baptism begins again. I wonder, before electricity, how the darkness conjured spirits, and sung the middle-worlds into being.

These middle worlds live on here – perhaps deeper and more vibrantly during these sudden winters. Tuesday night shows to 500+ in a humid barn, Sunday morning placements at Kater Holzig, Ritter Butzke, Berghain, Weekend Club….or outposts in Russia, Czech Republic, New York, Detroit, Toronto…bleeding on through sunrise to early afternoon. The tribe want to dance, they will have their way. I stand behind creaking machinery, eyes bleary and ears fuzzy, drinking litres of water, watching the blaze, the fumes and consummation in slow motion.



This life, this strange chain of moments – I never chose these, this place, this music. Much kindness abides though. The gods summon whom they will, like the crows, intent and silent. Some days its terrifying to stand and look at this body, these years. Sliding toward 40, and still, more than ever, wanting for nothing. Aside from, perhaps a little more sleep. This is it, it is enough, more than enough. I wish to dissolve, to become empty, elastic, The One Who Sees, Kenny Werner’s “effortless master”. I’d settle for less bowel-problems, a better back, a louder laugh, or shoulders held a little higher, more stoically. Perhaps the 30s are spent making sense of the teenage years, and they surrendering to the Unknowing with as gentle a touch as can be mustered. Our only Sin is being Born. It’s a noble Sin, too, I think – one worth owning a little before we Surrender.

Come,
let's scatter roses and pour wine in the glass;
we'll shatter heaven's roof and lay a new foundation.
If sorrow raises armies to shed the blood of lovers,
I'll join with the wine bearer so we can overthrow them.
With a sweet string at hand, play a sweet song, my friend,
so we can clap and sing a song and lose our heads in dancing.
-Hafiz

I create and play music written in deep, ancient codes which I'd dare not be so arrogant to assume to know how to translate. This is our secret, our communal, primal secret, which we share and shout and lose ourselves to – the mania, the rapture, the surreal perfection of it all. Thank god my life makes only this much sense…I pray it always will. x
