mmmyeah cruising down to cornwall sunroof open windows down with a nice spot of dub & a dash of kyuss; lovely. actually martin clunes said cornwall is alot like raglan in nz, but not as much reggae - ha!! he’s right :))

it’s all over the shop i tell you - i’m very lucky to enjoy an eclectic taste! hi-fi or lo-fi the list is long - there’s just too much going on - if it’s good i’m lovin it
...& becoming tremendously informed by this fabulous network.

if you catch me in a club i love electro & breaks - nastier the better. & i’m quite partial to a dub sound-system. & rawk rarrrrrr.

beyonce is beautiful (hasn’t made a dud move - ’cept for that awful sing-y film that was SO popular ick), & so is jack white. & i swear layne stayley was a tremendous soul singer.

Right; i think we’ve almost covered everything there...I’m exhausted.
