About Me

Development Hell Web Monkey. I was born in New Zealand, but have lived in London since 1985. I gave up my degree course to work in a second hand record shop, and have been trying to escape the music industry ever since. I've worked as a roadie (over 300 gigs with pre-Britpop indie-rocksters The Family Cat), then in A&R for goth/rock misery merchants The Cure. I was Head of Music for London radio station Xfm from its inception until the big corporate shakedown of 1998.

I am fond of kittens (care to buy my book?) and extreme cooking - I write a blog for the Observer Food Monthly website about eating animals alphabetically.

Strange Fact

I'm a rubbish DJ, but I once got booked to play a Beastie Boys party.
