Just a quick post to let you here what I was up to at the weekend, my friend Taff came to visit me and brought his musical toys so we ended up recording a track which even includes backing vocals from Elsie.
I am no expert when it comes to these things but it was nice to get holed up in my new office and have some fun. Let me know what you think.

Okay, many moons ago after a night out I stopped past my friends house to say hello and stuff, Kolin happens to be an audio master (Mainly known as Biomechanoid) and has made some awesome music over the years (more on that at a later date though). After very little discussion we decided to get me plugged in and record some ad hoc lyrics in his studio and the track you are about to hear is a bi-product of that little audio excursion.
In Winamp it says that this was made in 2003 but I would put it a lot further back than that, I think Kolin had a little play with it and mashed it up a bit further. Still, seeing as I never got a chance to record a podcast tonight, I am still duty bound to provide you with unique audio content on a regular basis and I think this qualifies seeing as it is part of the rather large backlog of things I have done over the years.
I actually caught up with Kolin the other week which was really nice, he seems to be doing well for himself and is creating soundbanks for Absynth and recording soundscape stuff for various people. Very talented individual who I have a lot of respect for.
Anyway, the long and short of that meeting is that hopefully we are going to hook up again soon and try to lay down some tracks. I am getting back into the creative side of life again and I will not tell a lie! I am loving it 
Oh well, here goes, the track is called Monkey Business, please let me know what you think of it by leaving a comment!

Ha ha, okay so I am slightly cheating this evening, something came up that has prevented me from getting a proper recording done for the site but instead I have decided to share a wee gem that I wrote a while back.
This little poem is called “Spots” and it goes a little like this:

I’ve got a blackhead
and I’ve got spots
I’ve got some that squirt little
and some that squirt lots!

Son of a bitch! I had recorded a total of about 21 minutes of podcast mayhem when Audacity decided to crash out on me. I did however promise to make a podcast every thurday night so I rose from the ashes of dispair to record the next installment of the Az, caz & Co podcast.
I’m going to keep this post short as it is getting late and I have just had to make up some lost time, I hope you enjoy this installment of the show (dunno if it is a show or not… maybe it only becomes a show once it has a name??), please feel free to leave a comment to let me know what you think!

I have a serious love for Drum and Bass music & have been playing at a night for the last 8yrs, I figured it was about time that I shared some of that love. One of the guys that I play with is called DJ Davy and he happens to share that same love and sent me link to his latest mix which I though some of you may like to listen to. I hope you enjoy it…

Feel free to download the mix… or visit his musical domain and listen to the rest of his stuff…
Oh yeah, and in case you like any of the tracks, here is the full track listing!

This is it. Hold onto your hats folks as the new Az, Caz & Co podcast comes into effect. I’ve finally gotten round to firing up Audacity, Winamp, and some mild drum & bass to bring you some audio entertainment and hopefully add another dimension to the site.
You’ll have to bare with me on this one, it’s still early doors and I’ve never done anything on the audio production front before and one cannot learn everything in a day, I will however give it a damn good go 
I’m hoping to try and roll one of these out once a week and most likely on a Thursday night because Caroline works and I will have peace and quiet to get things done. The kids might begin to worry about my sanity though!
Future plans for the podcast include a wealth of interviews on a variety of subjects such as digital, music, life in general and hopefully get some comedy nonsense on the go too. I hope you enjoy it, I know I am going to!
Anyway, thats the heads up, enjoy the show…

Well here it is, the first poem of mine that I am going to let loose on the world and at the same time try to get a Podcast up and running. I have been meaning to do it for a while and the only thing I’ve done to date is record a quick sample calling one of my mates an unsavoury name.
This is a poem that I actually got the idea for whilst in the shower one evening. I think that in order to appreciate poems you need to hear them so this is why I made the decision to record them… I hope you like this one, it’s called “Alternate Vicar”. I usually do it whilst drunk though so I may end up re-recording it… scary this podcast thing!
Oh yeah and if you want read along here is the audio version.

Come here today
and throw away
your arrows and your knives…
For I have come here today
to wed a husband and a wife…
Come to me with reasoned mind body and soul
you shall find eternal love
you shall acheive your goal…
For I become the vicar now
behold my work is done…
do not turn upon your love
destroy it with a gun…
Love is sacred
the lord has said,
retrieve that bullet
make love not dead
For love a word
with joy it brings
and with this word
the whole world sings
of the gift that you now hold…
I bless you now my childern
your vows now please uphold…
Peace!
