Jean Michel Jarre

Thursday, August 31st, 2006

By the time I was old enough to see him, JMJ was already hidden behind a wall of keyboards and synths. So it’s good to see what he was all about at the time of the release of Oxygene 7-13. I have to confess to be listening to a lot of Vangelis and Jon so [...]

HOOGERBRUGGE Interview

Wednesday, August 23rd, 2006

This is really great. I’ve been loving docking my Nano into pretty much everything from socks to keyboards. So imagine my delight when I spotted this Nano Dock Washing Machine

Dean & Nigel

Iain just reminded me of Dean and Nigel. I even set up a new category specifically (GOLDENWEB) because this is classic web stuff. Wonder whether they’re going to re-emerge through youtube.
