The team formally led by Ranulph Fiennes have abandon their expedition. Still better that then they don’t come back.
King Midas
watchfires
My pal Jamie drums in this new band Watchfires. Here’s a first demo, King Midas. I think its really good. If you’re in and around Aberdeen on June 22 come along to Drummonds where they’ll be supporting The Birthday Suit (Rod Jones from Idlewild’s newish project)
Peter Serafinowicz Boards of Canada mix for solidsteel.net. They say:
it’s a pleasure to welcome Peter Serafinowicz to Solid Steel. Actor, comedian, the voice to Darth Maul in Star Wars, has his own TV show, co-wrote the brilliant Look Around You, video director, appeared in Spaced amongst many others ………….. But for us, it’s all about his impeccable taste in music. As a listener to Solid Steel and a massive fan of Boards of Canada, we invited Peter to share a selection of music to coincide with the release of ‘Tomorrows Harvest’. With tracks from Aphex Twin, Boom Bip, Brian Eno, Samiyam, Actress, 80’s Canadian TV, Benge and of course Boards of Canada, plus his own music from Look Around You as Gelg, sit back and enjoy a stroll through this BoC inspired mix.
They did miss his two best credits however. He’s the voice of Cbeebies favourite “Driver Dan” and he made this fantastic video for Daft Punk’s Get Lucky.
New song from Beck - Defriended
I heard this cool Multitracks-only remix of the Jackson 5 classic ABC on the Craig Charles 6Music show.

Your attitude should be the same as that of Christ Jesus:
Who, being in very nature God,
did not consider equality with God something to be ‘exploited’,
but made himself nothing,
taking the very nature of a servant,
being made in human likeness.
And being found in appearance as a man,
he humbled himself
and became obedient to death—
even death on a cross!
Therefore God exalted him to the highest place
and gave him the name that is above every name,
that at the name of Jesus every knee should bow,
in heaven and on earth and under the earth,
and every tongue confess that Jesus Christ is Lord,
to the glory of God the Father.
Philippians 2:5-11
NT Wright suggests that ‘exploited’ is a better translation than the usual ‘grasped’.
Jennie Pollock unpacks why this is important on the Theology Matters blog.
