(me having a laugh with my GoPro) I’ve been mucking about with new lyrics/melodies lately. Some are working; some I let fly away back where they came from. For random reasons I’ll probably never figure out, history has been on my mind – perhaps the flavour of French history from last week has stayed with … Continue reading A POSTCARD FROM BEFORE
Having just returned from a spectacularly hot France I thought I’d share a few random thoughts that hit me while I was there. But first, to set the French scene a bit of music, Serge Gainsbourg and Brigitte Bardot singing ‘Un Jour Comme Un Autre’. For reasons unknown, I like this number; https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pxsZ0TQqFm8 This is … Continue reading ZOOLON’S FRENCH TRIP
This photo I took the other day, leaves little doubt as to what ‘Kyran’s mum’ – whoever she is - does in her spare time. Changing the subject, I’ve always thought that you know you’re in trouble when you can’t bend your knees. I was wrong. On Saturday, I was wearing headphones playing a guitar … Continue reading LOST HOPES & DREAMS

Being clever, Jennifer has used this piece as a backdrop to the game. I’d like to wish her every success as her gaming project evolves.
Block breaker is my next completed game project to help me learn C#. It’s pretty simple, but it’s got 3 levels, 4 kinds of bricks, and my own artwork, plus music by Zoolon Audio! Wow! Thank you George for letting me use your awesome music and samples for this project.

Please check it out and tell me what you think! Also let me know if you find any bugs. Thanks!
Another song from my new album, ‘DREAM RESCUER’. This one is called ‘REXIE BELIEVES IN MAGIC’. Here’s the lyric in case you fancy singing along. I hope you enjoy; Rexie believes in magic Has done all along Shipwrecked and nowhere else to go Its time he learns to head back home Rexie believes in … Continue reading ‘REXIE BELIEVES IN MAGIC’
