DEAR DIARY (July Part 2)

(Updates from the last 9 days)

Dear Diary,

YARD IS OPEN!!

'Back From England' lyrics nearly done. "...not fans of the durge...from ENGLAND!". We're playing around with the 'Strays' loop. sounds much better. matt's got a cricket ball in 1 hand and a laptop in the other. Good recording session tonight. 'Strays' has taken a new turn. Banjo sound? & http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=so-L12LFRR8 . we have been asked to do a German interview. our manager Chuck Head is in talks to get us a fitness DVD out in time for christmas. all dayer tomorrow..recording, filming, photos, directors commentary, drinks, pizza, drinks, dancing, freeze puppy launch, drinks, sleep. we filmed the Gorlkeepers video and did the directors commentary for our HG live set. 1 of these was good, the other awful! then we went to the Freeze Puppy launch which was awesome. then Boonbeans lost his pizza and his mind. wow!! 'Neutral Zones' has taken off (like a swarm of wasps) and is now a 8min epic!! its BIG!! (does actually include wasps). OLO meeting over. sooo many things needed sorting out. vans, comics, dj software, socks.

Regards,

OLO Worms

DEAR DIARY (July Part 1)

From now on we'll be keeping you more up to date with things going on, especially news on the writing/recording of the new material. We've kicked off again this month. These updates will mainly come from HJ's poorly written Twitter feed. The others are scared of mixing with other cyborgs. Check out HJ's Twitter & OLO on Facebook).

>>>

OLO Worms will be playing at a special event to celebrate William Burroughs 'Naked Lunch'. date TBC. i need to read it, loved the film.

woooohoooo! Worms gonna be DJing at Green Man Festival! just got the dates through for the confirmed OLO TOUR in august!!

OLO recording session under way. trying to install the new nano pads onto the laptop. cups of tea drank through puzzled mouths. yeah got the nano pads working! playing around with 'Sphinx' sounds. might try and do a REALLY rough demo.

recording session underway.we've re-camped into the living room and straight away we feel better! this is the way forward. neutral zone. WOW! NEW song within 20mins! gonna give it a name in a bit. we've taken marks electronic drums apart and its all hand held drums. its cosmic! OLO session going well. 3 new songs! 2 sound something off 'Mwng'. Matt's having 'veg bread'. Gareth will be back soon to add fuzz. another new song 'Sleep is your dessert'. thats 4 new one's created today. recording demos on tuesday. turns out 4th worm G.Jones has made a song too (while away in Devon). 5 alive!! just counted..we now have 22 songs to record for the OLO album. i'm guessing 2 of the 20 will make it onto the record. U know what..i did say 22 songs to record, make that 44! been watching loads of our demo vids and there's soo much to work with!

we've just come up with an interesting way to get new demos out to people. go round their houses and kick the door down and force them down the throats!!!!! ..there's a plan B (which we'll use).

OLO session underway. OH BOY! LH: "here's a sample i just made" it's summer! this sounds amazing!! look up S&TFS 'if this room could talk'. another new song started tonight..working title 'Dino Freak'. 'Curves' has been worked on and sounds magnificent!

SPARKY SPHINX

THE BEAN BURNER

BB has a new blog, he writes:

I'm gonna be treating Beansonbread mainly as my personal blog from now on (what colour pants i'm wearing, how many hairs i have on my chest, what i'm doing next Wednesday..you know, that kinda thing). I'll still be posting up the odd reference to the outside world on there from time to time but most of the time i'll be using my other NEW blog for that kind of thing. BEAN BURNER is my new blog! So on Bean Burner i'll be posting anything that interests me outside my own life (i know that's hard to imagine). It's where i'll be posting stuff that's currently on my radar. New music, old music, mixes, videos, films, TV, websites, etc. Anything that's moving me in some way. I'll be posting on a daily basis over there so refresh me!
