Sitting here doing some work while Yash is watching CSI and they played some classic Kruder & Dorfmiester! That definitely took me by surprise. Saying that, I do like CSI, the producers really know what they’re doing but more than anything the music producer (or whatever they are called) consistently selects some great dance tunes - especially CSI NY.Hats off to the Yanks for that. Here we are, the Brits, thinking we are the dance masters, but I have to say I think CSI, as a franchise, has the best sound track of any tv series going.

They should definitely bring out a compilation. How about a CSI theme club night? Excellent! Everyone can dress up - Grisham, Sarah, Horatio etc. Just play CSI featured music all night.

Talking of CSI, I actually had my own work featured on Vegas a few years ago! You know you’ve made it when that happens… Well. Maybe not, but it was a buzz. The situation was that Sarah used her computer to look up information about a suspect and ‘did a LexisNexis’. The scene featured her go to the computer and put the guy’s name in to one of my search form interfaces!! Still makes me smile.

Anyway, I know I’ve been slack with my blogging recently. My life seems to be 100% absorbed in to the new job. Off to Amsterdam in a few hours. Maybe I’ll be able to add some entries from there.

Here I am working away and, I have to admit, dancing at my desk. The people in the office must think I’m a muppet but there are some tunes that you just can’t help but move to.

I have a Powerbook along side my desktop which essentially acts as a tunes server (and testing machine). It has a 90gb harddrive which pretty much maxed out with music. Recently as I’ve been listening to albums I been dropping individual tunes in to seperate playlists to create favourites by genre. I’ve been sat here listening to the dance track list on shuffle. It is just one classic after another. I’m on track 9 now and it has played out as such:

1. As The Rush Comes - Motorcycle
2. Silence - Delerium
3. Lost Not Found - Dirty Vegas
4. My Love (oakenfold mix) - Justin Timberlake (how did that get in there? Actually pretty catchy)
5. With or Without You - U2 vs. Daft Punk
6. Little Fluffy Clouds - The Orb
7. Love U More - Sunscreen
8. One More Time - Daft Punk
9. Southern Sun - Paul Oakenfold

There’s 27 in the list - not one filler. Well. We’ll see…

I pity people who can’t listen to music while they work. Man, I feel like going clubbing!

Talking of clubbing. It has been a very long time since I saw a dancefloor. That’s what happens when you turn 30 and become a father… Anyway, looks like I’ll be going to see John Digweed at Heaven on Good Friday with my friend Ade. I think the last time I saw him almost 10 years ago in San Fransisco along side Sasha. Quality night dancing on the podium in my tight white sailor boy bell bottoms, top off… Ha ha! That was the city to do it too.
So, I’ll have to report back on the night. Maybe get a few photos.

BTW, we’re on to Ture To Form by Hybrid now…
