"For you to do what I do is not right, but for me it's not wrong, but what I've been trying to tell you all along is that it's got to be, so if you wonder why, the answer is, that just like you, I gotta to be me "
Robert Craig "Evel" Knievel

That Prolific Current TV producer Daniel Florêncio has been at it again! This time he's been out on the town shadowing a paparazzi photographer.
The film features a couple of old tunes by the Electric Stallion - 'Sugar Rush' [Kitty vs the Electric Stallion] + 'Ultimate Victory' [Loop Fantastic vs the Electric Stallion.]
The pod below uses two more tracks - 'Me ME me' and 'Hotel Window'. Daniel has five more films in the pipeline and which will be featuring some BRAND NEW work by the Stallion!!
If you enjoyed the films then why not click here and leave some words of encouragement, the most popular films get played on satellite stations all over the world. Sky 193 + Virgin Media 155 in the UK.
You can listen to bags more old rubbish by the Stallion by hitting the donkey upstairs or by visiting MySpace.
YOUTUBE OF THE WEEK... this is amazing, you gotta watch this crazy piece of magic by Lasse Gjertsen!
Congratulations to Sean Alexander who has recently completed his mammoth revamp of the Great Western Studio's website. Blinding work Mr. S. - especially when you consider it represents something like 150 artist's work, that's like having 150 clients all on your back at the same time, NIGHTMARE!!!
The sleek design features a front page that randomly loads work from a select choice of artists from the studio. I was lucky enough to have a still from my film chicken used, a real honour! The backgrounds were painted by my old buddy Simon Dawe. You can watch chicken here if you like.
Meanwhile I have also just finished creating a new website for yet another Great Western artist, Lynn Parotti.
Remember If you like what your seeing and you need a new website you could do a lot worse than dropping me or Sean a line.
I have also been moving my shed, with the help of lots of my lovely Dorset friends. So thanks to them there for that.
It features the track 'Funky Zoo - last looks REMIX' by the Electric Stallion featuring the vocal talents of none other than Mr Sean Topham with singing by JJ POPSTAR aka DJ 'Last Looks'.
WEB 2.0 - what's it all about? User led content right?
Well here's my favourite WEB 2.0 widget thing made by www.flash-gear.com - they make lots of silly things for MySpace and all that. See how techy I'm getting!
It's a fridge magnet that's what it is! WEB 2.0 Go on have a go!! Have a fiddle and come back soon and see if it's changed - if you're lucky you can play with it at the same time as someone else. What fun!! Spooky fun!!
My other favourite WEB 2.0 thingy is alot more sophisticated - it's a massive world doodle scribble... www.drawball.com blimey!! Make doodles not war eh?
YOUTUBE OF THE WEEK... got my good friend BOB RUE to thank for sending me in this one!
This week I have mostly been shamelessly promoting myself!! Got a couple of tracks on to BRIDPORT RADIO and watch this space for two short films made by Daniel Florêncio featuring tracks from the STALLION's stable.
