If you want to see pictures of the rest of the band then check out the various Clock Opera articles on this site.

Clock Opera at 93 Feet East

They say it is ‘frenetic, bleep ridden, synth rock’ (TimeOut) but I say its just a great night out listening to raw creativity.
Guy Connelly and the Clock Opera crew were out again last night (10 June) at 83 Feet East along with Magic & Fur, A.Human and Dead Monroe.
I got there too late for the last two acts, due to crawling around on a gantry photographing Tangled Feet, but did catch Magic & Fur who really do need to be watched in the future too.

Party Ben – This Way To Party

He’s coming to Europe for the Volt Festival in July and if that wasn’t good enough Party Ben has put together a new long mix ‘ to celebrate…life’.

Party Ben, for those that havent heard of him (and where have you been?) is one of the biggest figures on the mashup scene.

A resident DJ at Bootie in SF and also admired by Chris Moyles here in the UK he has been responsible for such classic mashups as Every Car You Chase by Snow Police, American Idiot by Dean Gray and many many more.

Mashup – Norwegian Recycling – Green Day vs Jack Johnson (plus many more)

Eight songs that on their own are so-so but once they are mashed become something totally different.

This is Acoustic Alchemy and the wizard behind it – Norwegian Recylcing – has once again done the seemingly impossible.

This has the same level of quality as the previous ‘How Six Songs Collide’ which you can hear over on Youtube at: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3JKKl95Ttrc

Create a project in BPC-Screenplay and start a new scene, then write your dialogue, just as you would in a traditional movie script. BPC-Screenplay creates audio files of the dialogue and places them on a timeline.
