Yesterday, Pete and I met to play some music and make some plans.

We commandeered the studio of a friend named Ben, and fired up Pete’s laptop. The plan you see for future Comrade Robot performances is to move away from the acoustic-centred ensemble we have been and involve more of the electronic percussion, pads and beeps that we already use in our recordings. So we had a bash through Bleached Bone Fields, Stand and Clap and an old song called Ghosts, and you know what? It sounded pretty good.

We also made some plans to get Comrade Robot back on track, so in the coming months expect to see:-

• A finished version of Songs for the End of the World, with a couple of tracks gone, a couple of tracks remixed and a properly finished cover

• Some new recordings (August and Whiteface and Moon Behind the Sun or the most likely candidates)

• A Ustream gig (Because I did a solo one and we liked the results)

Many more exciting shenanigans, including hopefully a new video.
