I believe it's one of his own labels

Yup, indeed - it's one of his labels (he has a lot of Japanese connections!):

He hasn't released that much on it thus far - "Flo-Ride" (superb track, btw - "You can look, but don't touch!"), and I *believe* that the reissues are coming out on yet another label (A Guy Called Gerald Records) - i.e. Hot Lemonade/Black Secret Technology/28 Gun Bad Boy/etc...?

ahhhh, interesting. What do you think that'll mean in terms of his 2 performances at glasto? 1 old stuff set, 1 modern?

Sugoi ("soo-goy-ee") is one a very overused word here, mich like "wicked / awesome" i guess...

Loopz: What would glasto be without a few clashes eh? Are you thinking of the SqPusher / Bjork face off? :( Bit of a pisser eh?

More money probably :)


yep Dan, Bjork and Squarepusher was the first one where i cursed! I think Bjork will win it as i've yet to experience her live. We always seem to see her out and about at gigs but i've never seen her own gig yet!

I would say that the first one (on Friday) will be "live", presenting stuff more in tune with the recently released "Proto Acid" album, and the second one will be a DJ set (God knows what style that'll be - depends on the mood)! :)
