Exploration, experimentation, new musical experiences (||..NME??!?), learning from the past (no regrets?), psychadelia, natural highs, unnatural highs, lying in darkened rooms and talking bullshit for hours, the grime of the underground dancefloor, reading about people who are always more interesting in print than in person, the highs and lows of modern fashion (modern? maybe not..), nights out on the razz, nights in with friends and a few choice records, the taste of a fresh loaf of bread in the morning, waking up in strange places, the middle of the road at 4am, meeting new like-minded people, observing, the thump of the bass drum and the wail of a fuzzed guitar, listening to something with an open mind, lucky finds, 50's information advertisements, analogue vs. digital, synthesisers, building and creating, close friends, distant enemies, work (in the confines of a studio environment), photoframes, polaroids and photoshoots, dressing up to go out, train journeys with friends, chance encounters, nostalgia. Captain Bangs. These are the things I live for.
