Silly Arse Email
Date: Thursday 21 May 2009 11.18amTo: David Thorne
Subject: Re: Pets in the building
Hello David
I have received your email and wish to remind you that the strata agreement states that no animals are allowed in the building regardless of if your apartment is soundproof. How many dogs do you have at the premises?

Dear Helen,
Currently I only have eight dogs but one is expecting puppies and I am very excited by this. I am hoping for a litter of at least ten as this is the number required to participate in dog sled racing.
I have read every Jack London novel in preparation and have constructed my own sled from timber I borrowed from the construction site across the road during the night. I have devised a plan which I feel will ensure me taking first place in the next national dog sled championships.
For the first year of the puppies life I intend to say the word mush then chase them violently around the apartment while yelling and hitting saucepan lids together. I have estimated that the soundproofing of my apartment should block out at least sixty percent of the noise and the dogs will learn to associate the word mush with great fear so when I yell it on race day, the panic and released adrenaline will spur them on to being winners.
I am so confident of this being a foolproof plan that I intend to sell all my furniture the day before the race and bet the proceeds on coming first place.
Regards, David.

David, I am unsure what to make of your email. Do you have pets in the apartment or not?

Dear Helen,
No. I have a goldfish but due to the air conditioner in my apartment being stuck on a constant two degrees celcius, the water in its bowl is iced over and he has not moved for a while so I do not think he is capable of disturbing the neighbours.
The ducks in the bathroom are not mine...

Kissey Asplund - Creep...(Download)


... So today I didn't know really what to do in the studio...i didn't feel like writing, singing...but not my music... I've been listening to Radiohead a lot lately so i decided to record a quick unplugged-nonmixed- cover of 'Creep'. The song is just soooooooo damn good and Tom Yorke does it soooo brilliant... I want you to have that in mind, this is just me doing something else and not me going for the Creep-trofé.

Buzz on net right now...
...the Warp20box...seriously dude...

... The Warp20-box contains (quote from pitchfork);
' -- The Warp20 (Chosen) double CD, a compilation of tracks from the label's history, with 10 songs chosen by fans' votes via the Warp website and 10 songs chosen by Warp co-founder Steve Beckett. It'll also include a pullout poster with memories and messages from people who wrote into the website. And because voting has closed, we actually know which 10 fan-chosen songs made the final cut. You can see the list here. Man, Flying Lotus almost made it.
-- The Warp20 (Recreated) double CD, a compilation of Warp artists covering other Warp artists. It'll include tracks by the likes of Autechre, Jamie Liddell, Maximo Park, Harmonic 313, Clark, Seefeel, Luke Vibert, and Plaid.
-- The Warp20 (Elemental) CD, an hour-long piece from "Intro-Inspection" mash-up kingpin Osymyso, commissioned especially for this box set, made up entirely of bits and pieces of Warp records.
-- The Warp20 (Unheard) triple 10", which collects rare and unreleased tracks from Boards of Canada, Broadcast, Autechre, Elektroids, and others. This will come in "uncoated card sleeves with debossed typography." Sounds fancy!
-- The Warp20 (Infinite) double 10", a collection of locked-groove loops from Warp tracks.
-- Warp20 (1989-2009): The Complete Catalog, a 192-page book of cover artwork from every Warp release up until August 2009.
