She's like chocolate mudcake...

Phew. Took a long 48 hours and a lot of head-against-brick-wall banging to put this together but here's a remix of Beyonce's Irreplaceable, using a Commodores sample.

Beyonce - Irreplaceable (studiogypsy remix)

I hope you like it. I feel like Beyonce's lungs has been surgically pumped into my brain via my ears. I'm worried I will be forevermore to the left, to the left...to the left, to the left...

Back to the boards

Made two new remixes, after a long hiatus.

This one is childish, but I couldn't resist -

Lily Allen feat Eminem - Fuck you, I just don't give a fuck

This one is me trying to turn Clipse into actual western cowboys, aside from the swaggering, pistol-toting drug dealers they already claim to be -

Ry Cooder feat Clipse and Britney Spears - When the last time (Nevada)

Trying a new file-sharing service and it should be much more reliable than zShare.

wind catchers

i think the precision of a blade might be my first love in creativity. i made these wind catchers to replace the long torn paper wind catchers for these chimes.




earrings

i've taken up earring making again. it's the easiest way for me to play with colour.

waterpainting experiments

last august i took 10 days off work to stay at home, rejuvinate and to try and do something creative. oil painting requires more room than i have, so i tried waterpainting instead. these are two of the better pieces that i produced.

an experiment with colour:

King's disciples

Michael Jackson ft Justin Timberlake and Clipse - Billie Jean (studiogypsy remix)

This is my musical response to the remixes that latch onto the 25th anniversary re-release of Michael Jackson's 'Thriller', the biggest selling album of all time. Kanye West's version of 'Billie Jean' and will.i.am's remix of 'The girl is mine' are passable efforts mostly because the respective producers are wise enough to get out of the way of the musical juggernaut of the 80s. When the producers decide to try to recreate the Santana new-school-meets-old-school vibe in 'Wanna be startin' something' (Akon) and 'Beat it' (Fergie via will.i.am) the results are what you expect: even 25 years on Jackson's electric vocals remind you why he was the king, and why Akon and Fergie will be remembered only as mere bumfarts from the colon of commercial pop.

lotus + dragonflies



three of my favourite things are moons, lotuses and dragonflies. i drew the original sketch for this three years ago, but it took last christmas for me to cut it out of purple vinyl and stick it on my sliding door.
