So, we’ve been back home for a week and we’re slowly getting back in the groove. In a bid to extend the afterglow of the visit to Thailand, I present a show spiced with recordings I made in Thailand and augmented with some traditional Thai instrument loops from Discovery Sound’s excellent Amazing Thailand sample library.

We start with a visit to the Reclining Buddha in Bangkok – tourists!

Em. and I are loving every moment of our stay on the beautiful island of Samui. The palm fringed beaches are tough to beat and the weather has been fantastic. Our first couple of days were in Lamai with a busy shopping street that really starts hopping when the sun goes down.

We’ve since relocated to BoPhut which is less busy than Lamai or the poster child beach of Chaweng but which suits us perfectly – relax to the max! We love our accommodation at the Samui Heritage Resort – friendly, cosy, highly recommended!

Tomorrow we move to our final hotel on the island – three nights with a sea-view near Lamai. I expect our batteries to be fully recharged when we head back to Taiwan via Bangkok on Thursday. It’s been an unforgettable trip.

Happy Valentine’s Day! Em. and I are having a fantastic time on our first visit to Thailand.

We’ve spent our first couple of days in bustling Bangkok. In some ways it reminded us a lot of Taipei, surprisingly. We stayed at the Heritage Bangkok in Silom, right across from the Chong Nonsi BTS (Skytrain) station. Ours was a lovely large boutique room, complete with a small lounge and kitchen. It was a perfect base to explore from, especially armed with one-day BTS passes. We loved cooling off in the rooftop pool after a day in the city.

On our second day we took the river ferry to the reclining Bhudda (where I managed to grab the sound of coins dropping into alms-bowls) and the Grand Palace. A hot day of walking, but well worth it. We’ll be stopping off in Bangkok again for a day of shopping on our way back to Taiwan.

We arrived on Koh Samui yesterday and are in love with it! Good thing, since we’ll be spending the next week and a bit on the island. Here in Lamai there are great little markets stalls, fantastic food, awesome weather, beatiful beaches… We’re in heaven!

Huzzah! I’m officially on vacation and Em. and I are flying to Bangkok on Wednesday. I won’t be performing in SL for the next two weeks, but I’ve prepared two archived sets and the MLO podcast will appear here at the usual time on a Sunday evening while I’m absent. As befits a sound jeweler, I’ll be taking the H2 field recorder with me and will be sure to grab interesting sounds in Thailand. Who knows, I may get enough material for a second MLO special ;^)

I’ve completed a mix for a dubby new Kou Chou Ching track and a remix for Space Funk – click to listen to Brothers and Sisiters (MoShang Remix). Just about done with the complement of tracks I wanted finished before my vacation – oh man, it can’t come soon enough.

I thought I’d be coasting up to the Chinese New Year’s break and Em. and my vacation in Thailand, but no such luck. Instead, I’ll be teaching two additional hours a day for the next two weeks. No rest for the wicked. At least there will be no doubt that I’ve earned a break when these two weeks are behind me.

With the new year in full swing I’m working on a remix for Taipei band Space Funk (I remixed a track by Space Funk’s Viba on Asian Variations) with new mixes for Kou Chou Ching to follow. I’m also completing a sample pack for L8-Night Records featuring new samples culled from this podcast.

I’m presenting the second of my two performances in SL yesterday. The first was a great show at Fleure Homewood’s concert venue, for an all-elf audience ;^) This, the second, was at Pat O’Briens, a venue in the French Quarter operated by Votslav Hax and Bobbijo Johnson. Nice crowd and very cool set by DJ Jezy Bellic following mine.
