Happy New Year!
2013, huh? Man, that came around quickly! I've barely been here since I reactivated my account back in October(?). Most of that was down to one of the biggest projects I've ever worked on, which took over my life for the best part of 3 months. It left me a shell of a man, but much more accomplished designer. I actually feel like I'm going somewhere with my career. It only took, what, 6 years?
With such a big project out of the way, I really want to spend some of my evenings and weekends focusing back on my personal work - primarily, my new skate / lifestyle apparel brand. I can't say too much about it, but I'm incredibly excited about it. I've been working on some designs I'm really proud of, and hopefully other people will dig them too. Sneak peak...
Got some pretty awesome Christmas, the highlights being a beautiful new Santa Cruz skateboard and a Lego R2-D2 (it's incredible)...
Oh, and the first volume of the Adventure Time comic... MATHEMATICAL!!!
Other than that, I've been living in the cinema. While I don't have a definitive favourite film from 2012, I'd have to say it was between Rust & Bone or Silver Linings Playbook - I couldn't recommend either more! That's another thing I'll be starting in 2013: my film review blog. Watch this space.
As for albums, I haven't really stopped listening to London by Apologies, I Have None since they released it. If you like good, melodic Punk Rock, they need your attention. They deserve to be huge: http://open.spotify.com/album/5OaN6tZz81VoBnhUEb9d8D
I'm also pretty nuts on Sarah Jaffe right now. Really solid female vocals, great tunes. Some Electro vibes, some Indie Rock, and a good dash of Experimental Pop / Folk :

Ok, so nothing too interesting to report, but I figure writing this will get me back into keeping things up to date here.

Please please please can we catch up at some point?
I loved Silver Linings Playbook. Argo, Perks of being a wallflower and obvious superhero blockbusters were some of my favourites.
Oh and did you know Lee's moving back to London?
