What if my B.P. turns out to be B.B.?
I've got a lot going on these days. Here's a rundown:
1) I've just finished a tour of japan with Momus and Digiki. I'll go into more detail later in a tour diary when I have more time. for now, here is a list of the dates and venues that we played.
2003.07.05 (sat) in Nagoya @ N.V. Cafe
2003.07.05 (sat) in Osaka @ Club Karma
2003.07.06 (sun) in kobe @ Otoya
2003.07.07 (mon) in Kobe @ C.U.E.
2003.07.12 (sat) in Kokura (Kyushu) @ MHZ
2003.07.13 (sun) in Kyoto @ Metro
2003.07.19 (sat) in Tokyo @ Super Deluxe
2) Working on a new avant-popish duo with Midori with plans to complete an album before this winter, and to take the fruits of our labor to europe for a small tour there with friends from tsunami-addiction.
3) I've recently been invited to join on at OK FRED as an assistant staff member, and I'm pleased as punch! it is of course THE magazine to read here if you are interested in both national (Japanese) and international experimental new media/sound arts, since it contains just the right mixture of geeky seriousness and blase graphic-arts driven cool (just like CalArts did, except this a "real world" entity). I just got the back-issues in the main from sidelab, and I'll have to peruse them asap and give myself a refresher on their aesthetic. anyway, despite my best efforts, I'm sure that issue #3 will turn out just fine.
4) oh, I'm bustling about Shibuya, Shinjuku, and Akiba trying to get my hands on all the gear that i need to finish setting up a new studio perched on the outskirts of Kamimeguro (actually right around the corner from the Idee Service Station, which is really the only place to be) since the neighborhood here in Meguro seems to be going to pot recently. Honestly, I'm far more worried about my interior decoration at this point than what kind of monitors or mixer I'll buy. needless to say, I'm having guilty flashbacks of certian scenes in the movie Fight Club...

I would flip through catalogs and wonder, "What kind of dining set defines me as a person?" We used to read pornography. Now it was the Horchow Collection.
All of which leads me to wonder if some day my Brad Pitt will come, and blow everything up for me, thus setting me free from all of the fabric coordination nightmares I'm currently facing. but what if my Brad Pitt actually turns out to be Brad Breeck? what then?
