I went to Switzerland to DJ at smashing label Creaked's 'Weekender'.
It was loads of fun.  They made a video of it.  I'm in it.  Enjoy.

Yes, yes, y'all.. I did another remix.

It's for a friendly chap called Sportsday Megaphone and it's out on Sunday Best.

You can buy it here:

Last night I seemed to have attended 'the annual gathering of young east London creative, who don't pay their own rent'.

It's a lively affair where every cunt aged between 18 and 19 who has given up trying to make good music in favour of becoming a photographer/documentary film maker/music video director, finding that this doesn't require a lot of skill or creativity, leaves their home on Broadway market to squeeze into a room in Corsica studios and act like all the black people they see on MTV and take photographs of each other doing so.

I went to see The Chap play at a night called 'off modern' but it was difficult to see the lads in action for the throng of photographers who flooded the stage to take snaps of the audience.

This is how off modern bill the night:
"Off Modern is a new collective of artists, curators, promoters and writers who take a lateral view of art, music, aesthetics and culture. Instead of just seeking to recuperate the well-known and well-documented trends of the past one hundred years, Off Modern explores and celebrates the forgotten and misinterpreted artistic movements. Through this we seek to discover and hail the advent of new ones."

It's always nice to see me in a person's top friends. I don't have enough top friends to return the compliment, so I'd like to list them here.

Am I in your top friends? Let me know, and I'll add you (i'm not prepared to go looking for you.) : )

I did a remix of Nashville-based, angel-voiced Canon Blue.
He's on Efterklang run label Rumraket.

Listen to it here
Buy it here

This is what they wrote about me:
VINCENT OLIVER: An English wunderkind who breathed a second life into Rum Diary. Vincent Oliver recently also contributed to the Efterklang discography with a hilarious and genius remix of Efterklangs Mirador song. Vincent Oliver releases his music on LOAF Records.
..Scumbags.

I'm DJing at this night for Border Communty (who have invited my label Lo Recordings to host a room) and on their website they describe me as a "lo-fi pop lothario".  It tickled me.  Lo - thario, you see.  Smashing stuff.  A great pun and it'll make girls fancy me more.  Can't argue with that.

I did a remix of the enormous and dreadfully handsome bunch of danes called Efterklang.

It’s only available digitally as part of a new EP/single Caravan.  Also includes a lovely mix by clever bell boy Max de Wardener and a beautiful new Efterklang original.

Get it / listen to bits from iTunes

Caravan also has this lovely vido by Anders Morgenthaler

Current mood:  betrayed
I'm well pissed off that Vincent Oliver has managed to crawl back up to second spot on google.. I thought i'd knocked him way off the first page.

Just look at the arsehole.. who does he think he is?

I'm sure all of you from Britain will have heard about Shirley Bassey's wonderful performance at Glastonbury and subsequent death defying helicopter landing during the journey home. 

THAT WAS IN MY FUCKING GARDEN!!..  sort of.  It was in the college field outside my garden in the college where my parent's live.  My mam was on TV and radio all day, apparently.. I didn't see any of it, though.  This is my mam and dad (maz and frap) with the helicopter - taken from bbc.co.uk






 "I asked her how Glastonbury was and she said it went really well".
Marion Oliver

Great Quote.
