album cover

the new BLONDIE album cover art is being done by Dutch (Amsterdam) artist Chris Berens

he just had his first show in NYC... we have known about him for only a year or so, great stuff,
more soon...

new record

ok we are getting closer to the next record... all the mixes are done... we have a couple of very cool guest artistes, we are pushing for a 15-16 track record... there are three, maybe four cover songs... theres one track in French and Two in Spanish... as for the English language remaining tracks most of the lyrics are by Debbie... i must say i am knocked out by the lyrics alone... i think that this record will help people understand that one can write rock lyrics that go further into the realm of poetry and literature, that just dont make simple statements... i think all the blondie records are different and have their own character... this one has been in the works for over a year and the long period since the last record has certainly pushed it into its own space... yes it sounds like blondie no question... yes its a rock record... yes there are a bunch of different styles explored... beyond that i dont have more right now... i am close to saying its a little on the dark side but that may just be my own interpretation... so far we have only played things for very few people... when people hear it then we will get more of a consensus on what they think it is... we will release more details in a while the release is supposed to be in the spring... i will let you know

"winters gun" shoots us all

i have been neglecting some of these posting duties due to ennui and using the time i have to keep active on the upcoming record project

pretty soon i am hoping to release some concrete data re the next record, till then you will have to live in some suspense

thus far i have only heard i guess four of the tracks mixed... ok what i do have is tracks are being mixed by Mark Needham in LA, produced by our now old pal Jeff Saltzman one of the most patient individuals in the whole of something...

i am still working on new music... the world of digital recording is unlimited and i can do hours and hours experimenting with sounds etc etc

but yes winter is a drag ('winters gun' is the title of an old friends latest recording, i love it, had been playing it constantly for several months when i first got it)

and there is little to do outside of a limited circle sooo i was pleased to find the crazy service offered by Xtranormal.com ... there one can waste time making little cartoon creatures say weird shit to each other, the results however are pretty hi end... so for part and full time computer geeks like myself its an amusing winter pastime... some results are on my youtube site: esxp on youtube thats about it... still not set up to send autographs, should be in the UK this year etc etc

happy new year by the way

future of latenight

sooo XTRANORMAL.com is and even better time wasting device than video games

blue

i perhaps am risking alienating someone but damn! i thought avatr fucking sucked... i cant even detail my objections to it... just think about Lynch or even Coppola have 300 million bucks to spend on a movie...

LOST IN CHRISTMAS

first go to:
http://newmedia.10thst.com/blondie/splash.html

and download our xmas song; a version of 'we three kings'

the genesis of this track is simple enough; when i first heard the unfamiliar chorus part

i thought 'gee that sounds like something by 999 or other early punk thing' ...the "star of wonder star of light..." part has the rhythm of a punk song in other words

then yes we watched all of the five seasons of 'Lost' on dvd... pretty early on i got that it was being written on the fly as it were, that it had an outline that was filled in in a sort of improvisational manner which was cool but my fears were that like 'Twin Peaks' it would all amount to nothing even vaguely rational... its ok though, its nice to see all of this stuff dished out in mainstream format... 'Richard Alpert' ha ha ha etc

soooo i think that whats gonna happen is that yes they will wind up back on the plane and everything will be like it was almost... problem will be that they all will still have their memories of the island! at least the ones that were there when the bomb went off... you heard it here... i will surely see the last season, we'll see...

meanwhile i gotta say i liked 'Battlestar' better
