Hello every one great to be back on my space again and looking forward to keeping in contact with you all, been hanging with jay last week and the rest of the gang and looked at the revamped studio, looking very nice and polished, and the live room sounds great acoustically, so looking forward to getting down to some serious work in the very near future. I did a gig with Real a couple of weeks ago in Reading had blast and great to see some of familiar faces at the gig you know who you are always a pleasure to see you at gig you know that!!!!!!!!!! I have also done some drum clinics this year also with some of the guys in the band now that was a real hoot, so much fun sitting down and explaining how we think when we put tracks together and how the jamiroquai tracks come together and playing, is the most important thing for me its all about the entertainmentfactor and keeping the punters happy and entertained!!!!!!!!

I have been busy during the course of the year but my highlight so far has been working for couple of new artists who to me have lot of potential, one is Miriam Lamen who i worked with in London and then Sola, Winston Blissett (bsss for Massive Attack) Miiram and her co writer all toootled off to NYC for 16 days to record her album at Electric Lady studios that was a great experience and working with the famous George Drakulis producing and Brandon Mason Engineering my job could not have been made arding better one, we all had fun and we all learnt a thing or ten about recording as well.

the other duo i have been working with is a littel outfit from Australia called Nude Continuum check them out, i have just done a track with them on my space called J T'Adore the vocals of Lija are amazing and through mutual Friends on my space SoulPersona and Mascarajones they got us all hooked up and working, hope you like the track. Had fun writing it and i am sure The Nude Contunuum massive aka Jame and Lija aka Princess Fressia had fun also!!!!!!!!

These guys are defo gonna be making waves for 2008/9 so lets hope i am gonna keep my backside busy with both of these acts as much as i can, As well as doing my main gig Jamiroquai where would i be without the band and the fans.

Long time indeed Mister D ;)
Good to hear you have played a lot the last time. "Je t'adore" (very frenchilicious;) is a great track. It reminds me of some block tunes from the 80's disco funk area. Solid Basslines, strings and sweet vocals. And I don't forget drums ;) Is it you ?
Concerning Jamiroquai, take all the time you need, take all the horns you need. I'll be there. No doubt about it. Much respect and love to u too. My hero.
Faster, stronger, happier !!!!
