New fanart by Matheus Viana, who says, “this is my tribute to the great ATD and the marvelous anime Akira!”. Particularly impressed with how I look kinda half baked and happy and have chair antlers. Amazing.
Not sure if I posted this here the other day, so have at ye a beautiful artwork on canvas I got in the post from Americaland and the brush of longtime ATD correspondant Christopher Beck. It arrived on Wednesday, a day before my birthday, whihc was pretty fortuitiius, and right now it lives on my shiny red bookshelf while it awaits a frame.
CHEERS DUDES YOU ARE GREAT ARTISTS AND I AM RROUD OF YOU!

So I was out in LA last week, on my way to a Hollywood recording studio with Wade, when our passage was blocked by The Iron Man 3 premiere. I’ve never been near a hollywood movie premiere before. It was pretty creepy, there were all these screetching creatures weilding giant blow up Robert Downer Jnr. dolls.
Anyway, it reminded me I’d started a beautiful and powerful piece of music based around a sample from the first trailer some months back, for no good reason other than stoned enjoyment, and certainly no intended project for it to live on. So when I got back to Don Studios in London I FINISHED THAT THING and then I UPLOADED that thing and now its yours. ALE JACA EST!

1: that is a NEW VIDEO! I managed to get it uploaded with minutes to spare before leaving Don Studios to fly to San Francisco yesterday. Enough minutes for a spliff, in fact. AMAZING. The video was shot at V Festival last year, in the Our House party spot that I was emceeing masterfully. I must have spent about a week editing that thing. It was a Herculean Labour of Love and I hope you dig it.
2: I AM IN FRISCOOOOOOO! INSTANT JOYWAVE! IT IS SUNNY AND LUSH! I GOT MY ROOTS DID BY HAIR OF THE GODS! AND DRANK WHISKEY COCKTAILS!
Yo, check out these Genuine Canadian Rap Titans. These dudes make dope ass videos. Who colours these shits? They all look gorgeous. Also the snares are mixed perfectly. Here’s some more.
Watch quick before it gets pulled off of Youtube! (Wow, that was quick, went down 2 minutes after I posted it! let’s see how long the Daily Motion one lasts)
Well, now I think this could be an awesome movie. That sequence is FLY AS SHIT.
