Music playing: "Gastr Del Sol - Crookt, Crackt, Or Fly"
More and more CD designs still on-going for Davy Graham as well as some website and graphic work for Ben Christo and his new band Night by Night. Rob and I have also begun development of a complex content management system for an exciting new idea for a music magazine we'll be launched in the future. We're working with an exciting young label called Willkommen to develop their site and will be creating the new site for SportsBookoftheMonth.com. All this plus the usual array of odds and ends. Meanwhile, I've bought a double bass and am having a lot of fun with that.

Music playing: "Ornette Coleman - This is Our Music"
I've completed several CD designs for the legendary guitarist Davy Graham which I'll add to the portfolio section very soon. I'm pleased with how they came out, you can see them in shops nationwide now. I've completed six so far and am working on a seventh, a best of entitled The Greatest which will be released in time for Christmas. That's taken up a lot of my time over the last year, but I've also done a hand-made CD design for my band Kopek and a design for our cover and pin badge for a forthcoming split 7" on the fantastic OIB Records. The 7" also features SJ Esau, Half-handed Cloud and Suburban Kids and should look great. I've also been playing in two other bands, Sons of Noel and Adrian, whose album is out on the 23rd, and Laish. Both projects are really fun. Outside of music I've just starting doing design work and PR for Carsite.co.uk and have a few other projects bubbling away as ever.

Ongoing projects for Ben Christo, Shels / Shelsmusic and My Awesome Compilation are ticking along nicely as well as some secret ones...

Music playing: "King Crimson - In The Wake of Poseidon"
No update in a while, but that's not to say I haven't been busy. In fact, it's because I've been too busy to add all the new sites here, but you can see more recent sites at
myawesomecompilation.com and jairusonline.co.uk. I've also just done some tshirt designs for Proof of Planes and I'm working on their website as we speak, and have recently completed a site for a film and television company called Goldhawk Media which will be online soon. 30th August 2005
