I’m really happy to be playing a couple of songs before a screening of the new Elliott Smith documentary Heaven Adores You on Friday 29th May at The Ultimate Picture Palace, Oxford. I am a BIG Elliott Smith smith fan so I’m genuinely pretty honoured to be playing. Also playing are the fantastic Salvation Bill and Reichenbach Falls.
Check out the trailer below then go get tickets from here.
As some of you may know, I created an interface using GlovePIE so that I could use an Xbox 360 control pad with Ableton Live in live sets. However when I upgraded to Windows 8 a little while back, the solution didn’t work so well so I’ve been looking for a new way to do the same thing ever since. Happily, as you can see from the video bellow, I’ve managed to create something very similar with Pure Data so I thought that I would share the results.

I joined Half Decent on his radio show, which goes out between 12 and 2 on Sundays on Destiny 105.1 FM. He asked me to put together a mix so I came up with this. It came out pretty good.

This year I’ve been lucky enough to be asked to be a party DJ for Helena and Dan’s weddings and a close family friend’s birthday. Unfortunately Tom O’Brien passed away before I got the chance to DJ at his 70th birthday but I know that this was one of his favourite songs and would have definitely been on the playlist. It would mean a lot to me if could have a listen, maybe smile and share it with friends and, if you want to, send a few pennies to www.myaware.org. I’m sure that they would appreciate it.
Cheers, Ian

[Update 15/10/14] You can now pre-order the CD and Download versions of the EP from Bandcamp.
I’m really happy to officially announce ‘Along Dangerous Roads’, the new collaborative EP between Tiger Mendoza and David Griffiths. Following a conversation over computer games and soundtracks, we decided that we would try out a few tracks and see what happened. The result was this 6 track collection which blends our separate musical influences in to an ep we’re both very proud of. The tracklisting is:
The artwork is by Ian Norris, writer and artist of the brilliant independent comic Fixed Up. The EP will be released in standard CD + download and download only editions but also as a special poster and download edition as well. To launch the EP, we’re doing a very special launch gig on Saturday 25th October at The Wheatsheaf, Oxford with support from the brilliant Motion Static. Check out the gigs page for more info and ticket details.
To coincide with the release, the site has had a bit of a facelift. Hopefully the new layout should make things a bit easier to find but if you do happen to stumble on to any problems, feel free to get in touch.
