Seeing a clip of ol' Ben and Avalon Emerson dropping a Hyph Mngo edit one one of Tomorrowland's very elaborate stages. Absolute cinema.
If you’d have told the dance music journalists of 2016 that ten years later Skrillex would be playing Dekmantel and Ben UFO would be playing Tomorrowland their heads would have fully burst and that’s quite fun I think
Do I know any journalists who have a lot to say about Sasha & John Digweed's 'Northern Exposure'?
Hello internet stranger I’m a 40-something-year-old DJ and I just want you to know how overwhelmingly upset you have made me by getting that genre name wrong

Guy who says it’s “absolutely Charles Hayward out there” when it gets over 30 degrees outside
Lovely piece by the awesome & inspiring Kate Butler on how she herself was inspired, plus the people who contributed to the new RTÉ2 radio documentary Control, which explores women pop producers’ technical work - Beyond the decks: The movement that opened up Irish electronic music jrnl.ie/7072791

I like Chanel Beads a lot but I think enough time has passed to say that the whole “giving your next album the same name as the last one” thing is annoying
The New Statesman asked me to put down a few thoughts about Belfast. On the politics and media that have failed everyone, and how much, and how little, has really changed. www.newstatesman.com/politics/202...

*bursting out of a yellowing Kikagaku Moyo t* Never know when this will come in handy!
Packing up the flat we’ve lived in for the past four years, hoping to purge a load of old clothes etc but the primal part of my brain would rather die than let go of the wrinkled band t-shirts I haven’t worn for at least have a decade

Not at any of the fun festivals this weekend but I DID very passionately (read: drunkly) bang on about Ben UFO at partner’s bemused 20 year old cousin for about 15 minutes at a wedding last night so really what’s the difference
