I did think about watching the new remake of The Prisoner, but frankly, why spoil things?

But I do have some information to impart - most notably a Christmas gig at our favourite arty Southbank bar, Concrete. Our labelmates Echaskech run a monthly night there which we have, mostly in our AGT guise, played at a couple of times. Saturday the 19th of December, however, is going to see Josh and I Soundclash it up a bit with a Digitonal vs Posthuman session.

For those unaware of Josh's Posthuman project, it's been going for a good 10 years now and, whilst every album has had a chimera-like quality of completely changing style, he has been at the top of his game this year, with breakout tracks like Lander making waves in techno and breakbeat circles.

I've been a fan since the start (I remember well buying The Uncertainty of the Monkey at the now defunct Mancunian record shop, Picadilly Records - in fact, whilst I was with 65daysofstatic on their first big ITC gig), and it's always a pleasure getting to push the Digitonal boat into uncharted territory. Expect the darker, acid-flecked side of what I do to come to the fore, as I try to bring my sound into line with the cryptid Posthuman techno-monster.

Most of all, it will be a lot of fun :o)

Oh, there is probably another bit of news in that I've started production on a new Digitonal album (you'd have thought this would make the headline wouldn't you?). The last one took 4 years and a collapsed relationship to write. I'm planning to do this one by the Spring, with my family and sanity intact this time :o). More to follow...
