Spent like eight hours traveling on today listening to EPMD “Strictly Business” & “Unfinished Business” , De La Soul “3 Feet High & Rising” & “De La Soul Is Dead” and Eric B & Rakim “Follow The Leader” it’s not a complaint, I have just transefered all my 80’s hip hop I grew up listening to, to my iPOD and have been listening to it on a loop. It’s quite strange revisiting them and thinking about how they inspired me, ooh that reminds me I must break out with the turntables on this album.

Today has been great, spent several hours just working on the new album. Put down new ideas for “In The Red” and “We Are The New Wave” both very dancable. “The Girl From The Future” has been extended now happy with the intro and well into the first chorus, it needs vocals, ideally I would have Karen O from the Yeah Yeah Yeahs on it, Karen if your reading this let me know. “Turn Me On” has had a few little tweaks here and there. Already I can see the album divided between fluffy happy songs and alien death ray dance tracks, which I a pleased with. Overall I am extremely pleased with whats taking place, not sure if my neighbours are though, as I have been playing the demos quite loud.

When I am a bit ore into it I will start contacting the people I would like to have as guests, mainly it’s gonna be vocalists, but maybe a few instrumentalists too.
