About Me

And then there were three! Disko this week have been busy signing Maidenhood's top Indie Dj Mr. Mathew Greene for a fanfare of a Dj set that complies with the health and safety executive - except paragraph 9 catorgory (C) stating no person listening to a musical device within a public entertainment area can foot tap or move rhythmically to a repetitive beat amongst boys and girls. Therefore, we are ashamedly expecting a whole flurry of rhythmic moving, foot tapping, the 'shakes', bodyrock, jive and the 'press up'.

My Interests

pop, colour, (domino) dancing, flashing lights, photography, smoke machines, maps, red wine with ice cubes, boomboxes. also, snooker, being mutual, 1982, 1987, transition, jamrock.

I'd like to meet:

i am incredibly self contained and would like to think i need no one. but everybody needs someone...
and i do like to watch the cool cats on the dance floor.

Movies:

i don't really get to see many films, but i think that i would like lost in translation best because it has such a pretty soundtrack. and absolute beginners. and ferris bueller's day off.

Television:

the big tv at home sometimes shows football and music videos but i don't like them very much. the nice girl who plays records for me likes spanish football and says one day she'll take me to watch valencia play. i'm tremendously european.

Books:

i can't read very well, as i'm an omnipotent presence but i like talking tape books. anything of a revolutionary nature is sadly difficult to get hold of though. i am interested in deconstructivism; who said i can't have layers?

Heroes:

the nice girl with the pretty shoes and the handsome boy who plays all my favourite songs. the cappucino kid.

I learnt to love that one note samba

'I learnt to live with the beats in a bar Made me sick with repetition I learnt to love that one note samba no surprise or definition.' There is something that exists that is so shimeringly beautiful,...
