Life Update

I've been a very busy bunny of late - had two truly excellent shows in London (Camden Barfly w/Unicorn Kid) which sold out and in Nottingham for the Games City Live event featuring a tracker workshop from Syphus and I, then performances together and alongside Free Market Economy and some rather odd/hilarious videogame poetry!

Inbetween all that i've had a meeting with a major label, went as a rabid zombie to a halloween party, networked with some really influencial (and lovely!) people within the gaming industry, partied and spent lots of time in london, and have been writing a lot of new material.

At the end of this month i'll be travelling to sunny Rio de Janeiro with henry homesweet to perform at the Hipersonica 2009 festial alongside chip superstars such as Bit Shifter & Covox - which is all a bit random and quite exciting!!!!!

Just a quick note to people who've yet to recieve their tshirt orders - i've got 5 remaining shirts to send here and they're being posted today, please let me know if you don't recieve anything by the end of the week if you're overseas.

Until next time!!!

T-SHIRTS + NEWS

Hey guys+girls!!!

the limited run of blue tshirts have been a real success and have almost sold out!!!

if you'd like to get hold of one before they're all gone go over to: SABREPULSE.BIGCARTEL.COM - accepts paypal and ships internationally!

people have already started receiving their shirts, and i'm posting all the outstanding ones this week - just a word of warning though, here in the uk right now there are postal strikes which could cause delays. If you'd like to know if your shirt's been sent please send an email to SABREPULSE AT GMAIL.COM and i'll track it down for you.

Another bit of good news (and something that followers of my blog might already know :p) is that a new sabrepulse album is in the works and finally starting to take shape, i'm aiming for an early 2010 release, with preview tracks being available on myspace in the coming months. The album will be available to download for a small fee, or as a full priced CD to purchase containing artwork and bonus materials. More details when I have them!

My final two gigs of 2009 are taking place next week - the first is wednesday 28th at the camden barfly, london - playing with Unicorn Kid as part of the roundhouse/bbc emerging proms - and the second is friday 30th at Gamecity Squared in Nottingham where i'll be running a one-hour workshop on gameboy/chiptune music in the afternoon then performing live during the evening.

Check my myspace profile for more information, tickets to the events and so on!!!!!

Home and not so dry

Japan was absolutely incredible - and i've fallen madly in love with Tokyo more than any city before.

I'll get around to doing a final photo dump and also put some of the better videos up, some context for those of you that have no idea what's going on in the pics would help too!

While I was out there I managed to snag that elusive Akai APC40 ableton controller at almost a third off it's uk price, so the final (for now) piece of my studio puzzle is complete.

The next few weeks is the build-up to the Chiptune Alliance Tour 2009, so from somewhere I have to pull the motivation to tie up all the bookings, create posters, drum up hype and generally be a promotion wizard. Plus finish new songs, do a radio 1 interview/live session and bemoan the grim weather that wraps aberdeen.

But for now, i'll sleep.

British Summertime

Last weekend was the laziest i've had in a while - great to catch up on a lack of sleep from working and recent gigging, but the contstant rain - and bellowing thunder as i'm writing this - leave me wondering why I choose to live in such a grim summer climate.

Out with the doom and gloom, things of note are a new Macbook Pro 13", which instantly makes every other laptop i've had seem a bit fisher-price, and a korg nanokontrol for an outboard knobbox solution to the alesis keyboard i'm currently using live.

I'll put up a selection of the rock herk festival photos up at some point, it was an amazing show - one of the best i've ever played with a huge crowd who were really up for it, a massive thanks to maarten and all the guys involved with it's organisation!

The Japan tour is coming up next month, and i'm so stoked to be playing alonside legends like Hally, YMCK, USK, Maru & Xinon - it'll also be nice to spend some time in a warmer climate ;)
