Here we have the last set for 2009. Do I need to tell you that the year’s flown?

Musically it’s been great – 2009 saw the release of Suncake Lounge Vol.1, the free Eentonig album, Unsung Heroes, two MLO sample packs, the Songs for Taichung MLO special, as well as  inclusion on 10 compilation albums. Add to that the birth of this podcast which saw more than 100GB’s worth of streaming mp3 last month alone (most of that to China according to my host.)

Thanks so much for listening and for your support over the last year! Loads more to come in 2010.

Em. and I went to see Avatar on the weekend. It was my first 3D movie experience and I loved it. As a sci-fi freak I thought the world of Pandora was beautifully realized. But now I want to see the technology used on even more astonishing worlds. I’ve just finished reading Matter, Iain M. Banks‘ latest (hopefully not last) Culture novel – imagine the Shellworld of Sursamen brought to the big screen in vivid 3D glory. Got to love that man’s universe-spanning imagination.

I was back at Substance this week for Episode 40; great crowd! I really felt on top of my game this evening and I think it shows in the recording.

Apologies for not sticking to the normal release schedule, but I had some ISP problems on Monday/Sunday and couldn’t perform. And then on Monday/Tuesday a power-outage here in Dali ruined an otherwise nice recording. Excuses, excuses!

Club Substance, the venue for many of the episodes of this podcast, is turning one year old on December 8th. As part of the celebrations I’ll be doing a double-barrel show – an hour of chill, followed by something more uptempo. In the second set I’ll be DJing some of my more housey tracks, along with some tracks that inspire me.

I’m also preparing a short deep house set in Ableton Live that I want to perform live. I’m pushing my Behringer BCR2000 controller back into service for this, also with an eye to performing live dance sets with Louis Minnaar, one of my collaborators on the eentonig album.

I’ll be performing from 4-6pm PST and here’s the link if you have Second Life installed:

It’s been a busy week, readying the eentonig (monotonous) album for release and getting it out there. It’s all done, except for the coffee table book which will become available in the next week or two. You can listen to and download the fruits of this labor from eentonig.com.

It’s not chillout by any stretch of the imagination, but rather experimental, dark with a dash of industrial and all in my home language of Afrikaans. If it sounds like something you might enjoy, do click on through to the link above and help us spread the word.

I’ve had to cancel some SL performances to get the album out, so this podcast was delayed by a couple of days.
