For anyone that loves hard/psy trance, Josh Allens guest mix on Global Trance Grooves this month was fantastic!

I was doing a bit of experimentation, to see if you could do decent dodging and burning in Lightroom. So I picked this ancient picture.
This is was one of the 1st pictures I ever took on my SLR, and as I didn't know what I was doing, the original is only a JPG. Still, I ran it through photomatix for a laugh. The original was as bad as you can imagine a complete novice with a brand new SLR would take. Completely black trees and over-burnt sky and leaves. ![]() Tuesday, February 2. 2010New Mixer!!!
Long time no write.. I've been quite busy lately jigsaw'ing bits of wood out of my front door, buying beds, buying mountain bikes and generally sorting the house out. I still haven't had time to do any pics yet, what with working late at work for a while.
Also in my spending spree, well as a nice gift to myself as I dont often splash on out on tech or things. I rarely buy anything really. I decided it was time I bought a decent mixer which had decent cueing ability and proper outputs for PA's. My goal for 2010, is to start DJ'ing in locals places such as the infamous Fawcett Inn pub, and potentially some other similar places. Anyway here is my lovely new mixer. Allen & Heath Xone:22. Pretty new piece of kit and its lovely!! My only problem is the bass it kicks out to the headphones is imense, so much so my headphones distort a bit. Next payday looks like I'll be buying some new headphones ![]() I've pretty much got beatbatching and phrasing all knocked on the head with cdj's. Even with my imprecise CDJ 100's. I shall start releasing regular mixes soon as I get more housework out the way. I'm gonna lay down some co-ax cable through walls this weekend, so I dont have to use this terrible wireless router anymore. Week after that I have a full bathroom suite being delivered, so I need to quickly arrange some decent plumbers and decorators too. Busy times indeed! Till next time!

That was the most entertaining episode of Question Time I've ever seen.

In the ever continuous quest to find cheap decent barbers, I've come across my favourite soo far. Its down on Elm Grove (or Beirut as we call it), and called DLO. They hardly speak English, but the shop is kitted out with lovely leather sofas, and its the quickest 6 pounds I've ever spent in the barbers. No back-chat, no fuss, 6 pounds, done and out! Awesome.
Until I find someone else who does it for 5 pounds or faster, it'll be my new choice for quick man-cuts. Work is mentally hectic at the moment. I suppose thats better than the alternative in these times. Hardly have a chance to do any mixing lately, or even sample new tunes. I do however love the music site www.trackitdown.net. Their music player and dynamic content let me queue up loads of stuff to sample without breaking the player when the page refreshes. Which is nice. On the right you'll see my public playlist from that site, that I'll fill up with amazing trance... ...if I ever find the time to find some Wednesday, July 29. 2009Rooftops of Southsea
Quick photo I made while trying to capture some lightning shots. Completely failed as the lightning wasn't consistent enough, so thought I'd practise some more HDR trickery.
