Well, Italy was amazing! Even better than last time.Ancona was wild, Rimini was, um, fraught (but I'm sure there was a tense nervous energy) and we got to see and meet The Hype; an amazing Italian band from the area who were so good we decided to invite them to play the next day too. Bologna was great and so nice to see the English/Norwegian Xcore division (21 hours of travelling demands respect), and we ended in a nice American style venue in Rome called jailbreak where we met up with many locals who had seen us earlier in the year when we played Zoo bar and drank with until we had to leave for our flight back at 5am.
As ever, huge thanks goes to Eric Bagnarelli the best promoter in Italy. We look forward to returning really soon, maybe even get around to doing that track in Italian...
And thank you also to our new Italian friends for making us feel so welcome.

Hey,
Well there haven't been any updates because there isn't really any news... Our summer festival tour was incredibly busy but worth it for all the amazing experiences. We played our biggest gigs so far at Summer Sonic Festival in Japan, Osaka was a 35,000 capacity baseball stadium and Tokyo was about 40,000 and guess what? They were full! We met lots of lovely people and are looking forward to returning to Japan as soon as possible.
Three triumphant sets at the Reading, TDK. and Leeds festivals concluded our live commitments for the summer. And since then we've had a bit of time off to relax and regenerate.
I've been doing a bit of writing, a little songwriting and have had a few nice walks accross the South Downs and picked some blackberries (yum) and next week I am off to the short story festival at Charleston (the home and country meeting place for the writers, painters and intellectuals known as the Bloomsbury Group).
So basically we've just been having a mellow time before getting back to work again at the end of September when we shall be honing all the songs we've written for the second album (from the sounds of things so far, the best description is perhaps that the dark songs will be darker than before and the pop songs will be poppier).
At the moment no live dates are confirmed, but we should be doing some in this country (and maybe abroad...) before the end of the year and when we do the set will have changed radically.
So while we "wait for things to be confirmed" and enjoy the onset of Autumn here's some stuff to be getting on with:
At the last minute we were asked to DJ for a while in the guest area at the Reading Festival, here's what I played:
Gang Of Four - At Home He's A Tourist (Others Additive Free Mix)
Mansun - Take It Easy Chicken
Duran Duran - Electric Barbarella
Teardrop Explodes - Ha Ha I'm Drowning
Primal Scream - Swastika Eyes
Bloc Party - This Modern Love
David Devant And His Spirit Wife - Holiday On Ice
Gang Of Four's new album "Return The Gift" will feature the near 5 minute floorfiller remix of At Home He's A Tourist that I did with Martin and James. It is released on 19th Sept and can be pre-ordered from Amazon here
Some of our set from the Lowlands Festival in Belgium was recorded in glorious lo-fi and can be heard here - also features the first taster of our new material with a song called Probate/13 Years.
We have a meeting with our manager on Monday so keep checking back after that because I may be able to announce some new live dates.
Cheers
Johnny

Hello,
We have been hard at work in the studio all week and have written three brand new songs which are all sounding good and will be sounding even better this time next week after we've spent another week in the studio - this time in Brighton (Yay!). After all the travelling I've been doing it's been nice to be able to sleep in my own bed every night!
Our Italian trip was amazing, Rome was amazing - it's the oldest looking city I've ever seen, huge chunks of ancient walls come out the sides of fairly new buildings, but even the newest building's look really old! It gave the impression of an "unfinished city" but was glorious. We ended up playing two shows, Rome Zoo bar and Ancona lazaretto to around about 1000 people which, considering we've never been to Italy before and the label have put zero funds into promoting the album abroad, is a real acheivement.
Ancona was alot of fun too and considering I'd never even heard of it, it was really gratifying to play a show arranged within two weeks and to arrive to see our names on the front page of the local press and to be signing copies of the European edition of the album before the gig that people had ordered on faith alone and had waited patiently for delivery of from their local Indie stores.
We all enjoyed some fine Italian feasts with some gorgeous sea views thanks to the hospitality of our wonderful agent/promoter Eric (thank you Eric) and are trying to schedule a return to Italy to do four dates in October. The word IS spreading.
DJ set at the pressure point:
We have decided to postpone the dj ing at the pressure point to a night (TBC) where there are fewer bands on the bill and bands that we actually like - the idea is to do a "let's kill the others" style club night. I am going to be sorting this out in the next few weeks and I will post on here as soon as anything is conformed.... Sorry if anyone was particularly looking forward to it but trust me - it's better this way.
Cheers
Johnny

August Bank Holiday Weekend 2005Saturday 27th (5pm - 5am) & Sunday 28th (3pm - 6am)Kings Cross Freight Depot, Off York Way, London N1 +44 (0)20 833 9944 / www.tdkcrosscentral.co.uk
LATEST NEWS>>>Mylo, Jeff Mills, DJ Format, Vitalic (Live) Whitey (Live) Four Tet (Live) James Lavelle & Trevor Jackson all confirm for TDK Cross Central........
--------------Eclecticism is a word bandied around music events far too regularly these days but TDK can hold their heads high, certain in the knowledge that Cross Central has one of the most forward thinking and varied selection of performers in the country.
With less than three months to go, TDK continue to add to their groundbreaking and stunning line up with more world class acts and cutting edge performers. Having confirmed that the Saturday headline act will be none other than pop alchemists Goldfrapp, TDK are delighted to announce more indisputable talents in Mylo, Jeff Mills, DJ Format, Vitalic (Live) Four Tet (Live) Whitey (Live) James Lavelle and Trevor Jackson.
As if you didn’t already have a reason to go, these additions prove yet again that TDK are investing in talent old and new. First up, the somewhat ubiquitous Mylo has confirmed his attendance having earned it with his unprecedented and overwhelming success in 2005. With a sound characterised by sophisticated electro stabs, classy breaks and fat bottomed bass lines it is remarkable to learn that most of Mylo's production tools are computer internal. His music is rich, varied and well balanced and sounds as if it has had an army of engineers assisting him. Mylo will headline the XFM Stage on Sunday alongside Tiefschwarz, Glimmer Twins, Vitalic (Live) Mocky (Live) XLover (Live) and host James Hyman from XFM.
We are also shout-aloud proud to announce that Detroit born, Jeff Mills will be playing an exclusive and rare 4hr set in the intimate surroundings of The Cross. Not many DJs can boast such pedigree but Mills, after leaving Underground Resistance and establishing his own label, AXIS in Chicago, is a legend among a generation of dance fans.
As one of the most talented and popular DJs in world, Mills is known for playing 30 to 50 disks within an hour - truly a unique DJ style. The theory behind it being that he tries his best to get the cream of every record and only play the part he feels are the best of each tune. You can catch Jeff Mills on the Sunday (28th August) in the legendary venue The Cross.
Pushing forward in 2005 further additions to the line-up are...... Mylo, Jeff Mills, DJ Format Feat: Abdominal & D-Sisve, Vitalic (Live) Whitey (Live) Four Tet (Live) Dungen (Live) Metric (Live) Mad Professor (Live) Stars (Live) James Lavelle, Steve Bug, Trevor Jackson, D'Julz, Rainer Trüby, Gliss, Dub Cartel Feat: Don Letts & Dan Donavan, Little Barrie, First Rate & Koobs, Kiki, Diplo, Brooks, Filthy Dukes, Temposhark (Live) The Loose Cannons and Simon Rigg and Heidi (Phonica Records)

MARTIN OLDHAM FROM CHART STARS THE OTHERS TO TAKE PARTIN HEART CHARITY'S 27th TOWER OF LONDON JOGOn Wednesday 11 May Martin Oldham from Manchester, whois a member of NME Award-winning London band The Others, will joinmore than a thousand fun-runners in the city's longest running jog- The British Heart Foundation's (BHF) Tower of London Jog. The Others are best known for their guerilla-giggingand their intensely devoted fan base.The annual jog, now in its 27th year, is the onlyevent which enables people to walk or jog around the grass moat of thehistoric Tower of London. Martin, who will be taking part for the first timewith a small group of friends, said: "I have a heart condition myself,which has involved hospital visits during my childhood, and I really wantto give something back and help the BHF. Although my heart conditiondoes not affect my everyday life, I do have to be careful, and so manypeople are touched in some way by heart disease. I am really lookingforward to taking part and helping to raise much needed funds for such aworthwhile charity. I hope I can encourage other people to take part too!"During 1998-2000, heart disease killed over 2,000people under the age of 65 in East London and the City . Every two minutessomeone has a heart attack and people are still more likely to dieof heart and circulatory disease than any other serious illness. Money raised from the Jog will help the nation's heartcharity continue to fund pioneering research into the causes andtreatment of heart disease that saves and improves the lives ofvulnerable men, women and children. The Tower of London Jog is a fun run of between oneand ten laps - each lap is 1km and joggers can run or walk as many or asfew as they wish. Trisha Snow, the British Heart Foundation's RegionalEvents Executive says: "I am delighted to say that last year over athousand joggers took part and helped to break the £100,000 barrier for thefirst time in the long history of this event, raising over £113,000! Aswell as being great fun all funds raised make a huge difference tothe BHF's urgent fight against heart and circulatory disease - the UK'ssingle biggest killer. So please join us at this very special eventand choose your own pace as you travel around the unique moat of the Towerof London!"To register for the British Heart Foundation's TowerJog or for more information please free phone on 0800 389 9750 orregister online at www.bhf.org.uk/towerjog
