As I mentioned in an earlier post I've moved from Sydney to Melbourne not so long ago. Im scrawling the rough draft of this post while standing outside on a midweek morning with an icy chill running through my fingers. Winters in Melbourne are much the same as in Sydney but a bit colder and it seems a lot more rain (which I like).


There is a bit of healthy rivalry between Sydney and Melbourne about which city is better, more cultured, has better nightlife and tourist attractions etc. So on my arrival and after meeting new people, many asked the inevitable question – which is better? I cant answer that question right now I need to digest Melbourne some more, but I suspect my answer will be neither they both have very different qualities that stand on their own.

I had the opportunity to visit Sydney as a tourist for the first time recently to play live at the launch of a compilation of Sydney electronica called – midi in the city. It's a mixtape compiled by the Sculpter and mixed by Simon Mann.

There is a diverse array of tracks by artists honing their craft in bedroom studios all over town. The party was a success with a solid turnout and a great vibe. I've heard that another party and releases are already in the pipeline. Im quite chuffed that they even included one of my tracks!
