Happy New Year!
Thanks to those who came to Sirocco at The Pink Cow just before New Year's. It was a very groovy night with chilled tunes from Joseph and Peter, live music from Jin and LouStar, and video art by Jesse, and a fine time was had by all.
Peter will be playing there again this coming Sunday for their 'Art Blender' event - Jesse will be there with more video art, there'll also be burlesque dancing from N@n@ and live music too. Plus of course the fine food and drinks from the bar. Directions and details are on www.thepinkcow.com, so please come down and enjoy a relaxed and eclectic night.
Peace.

New Year Sirocco
First, thanks to all those who joined us at Sound Market last month for the autumn Sirocco. It was a fine night with a goodly number of friendly, happy people, and the DJs were able supported by the singing plant on the table near the screen. We took kind of a relaxed attitude towards using the recorder, so Peter and Joseph's sets are lost to history, but they were ace.
Onwards. As we did last year, we're taking Sirocco to The Pink Cow in Shibuya on 29th December for a night of chilled tunes, live music and various other artistic goings-on. The full line-up hasn't been confirmed yet but it'll be a good night, with fine food (Pink Cow burritos are rightly celebrated) and fine drinks in a unique, relaxed setting. Check www.thepinkcow.com for directions and a map, details of the line-up as it unfolds, and a schedule of all their other groovy events. We'll look forward to seeing you there.

November Sirocco
Hello,
It looks like typhoon season has finally ended, so here's hoping we'll for once get a pleasantly warm, sunny autumn.
In a break with the norm, the next Sirocco will be on Monday 22nd November, the evening before the national holiday. Same time, 7:02pm, and same place, Sound Market in Fujisawa, with the same relaxed atmosphere and welcoming vibe as ever.
On a different tip, Peter will be DJing at Japan Music Week's 'UK Bristol Nite', held at Rockwest in Shibuya on Saturday 13th November. The event runs from 5pm to 9pm, and Peter will be playing sometime in the second half, depending on when he gets there.
Hope to see you at one or both. Peace.

September Sirocco
Hello,
Today is the first rainy day for about a month in Shonan, bringing some welcome respite from the relentless heat. You can find more relaxation on a couple of dates this month... first, on Sunday 12th, Peter will be DJing from around 7:00pm at The Pink Cow in Shibuya at their Art Blender event, a gathering of artists, performers, VJs, film-makers and other creative types. There'll also be live music and live painting along with the groovy but mellow tunes: see www.thepinkcow.com for details and directions.
Then, on Sunday 19th, is the next Sirocco at Sound Market in Fujisawa: Peter, Joseph and possibly a guest DJ will dispense chilled friendly vibes, while Taki-san and Miyoko-san provide tasty food and good drinks. We start at 7:02pm, finish around midnight, and the cover is Y500.
Finally, here are some pictures from my summer trip to Okinawa, to create a relaxed frame of mind... peace.
