Following a little indiscretion regarding sample clearance on the song Dear God, Virgin Records asked me to withdraw Skyhooks from iTunes and remove the offending track. I duly obliged of course not wanting to face the wrath of the big guns. Good news is that it should be available again in a few days time, now containing 9 fantastic tracks rather than 10 which is potentially an improvement if you’re in a hurry.

At some point I’ll maybe put the track back through the big machine and come up with a remix sans illegal noises but that probably won’t be for a while.

Thanks.

So I’ve put up a recording of the live set I did at club EQ the other week. I’m not sure it went down as well as I’d have liked - think everybody came in the mood to dance and doom rock and trip hop just isn’t gonna satisfy that itch. Still, I hope everybody had a good night in the end, and a few people said they wanted to hear it again so here it is, maybe it will fit better on your headphones, in the car or whilst doing the washing up.

It’s free to download off my Soundcloud page here:

Please let me know what you think, thanks to Charles and Dave for putting me on and I hope to do something like this again soon.

I managed to get a recording of the two radio plays I had over the summer, i thought you might like to hear them if you missed them live. Kairen Kemp at BBC South had some very kind words to say about me…
