There's not a great deal of music news this week but I promised you exclusive insider info so I can tell you that I have been asked to make music for a trailer to promote an extremely well known television series that you almost definitely already watch. I hope this all comes together because it wou...

Hello Patrons! Here's a video that took a hell of a lot of organising to do. I tried to get 100 different YouTubers and digital rights activists to send me photos holding up the lyrics to this song about the NSA's snooping powers. The style of the song is a little crazy and I think my ambitions exc...
2014-01-16 15:33:34 +0000 UTC View PostHi Patrons! This weekend was splendid, my friend Dave (who you may recognise as boyinaband) came around and we spent many hours recording vlogs and gameplay footage for a planned relaunch of my gaming channel - you heard it here first. The gaming channel has been abandoned for a few months because ...
2014-01-13 01:07:43 +0000 UTC View PostSecret preview! Today I've been writing a song for my Douglby Digby alter ego in which he confesses to the most heinous and shocking things I can imagine. Do not read on if that's your sort of thing: I've got this niggling feeling/ tickling me in regions I don't really find particularly appealing/ ...

This is just a quick vlog I put together to celebrate my dad's birthday. Not charged to patrons obviously, I will save that for music videos and more ambitious projects. I hope you are having a great 2014 so far everyone. Thanks to the new patrons for signing up too :)

OK. I'm nervous - this is my first music video that I've put together and is backed by my patrons (ie you). It's only fitting that it is about the very thing that made me create a Patreon account in the first place - YouTube's new draconian copyright system. I hope I've done you proud, and there is...
2014-01-02 12:17:58 +0000 UTC View PostHey Patrons who pledged $3 or more! How are you today. I told you I'd be posting previews of upcoming work so here is the first verse and chorus from a song I'm doing to protest against YouTube's bullshit Content ID bully bully bullshit. More angry swearing ahead: Dear YouTube, this here's to you -...

2013 has been an odd one for me. My career has been going amazingly, but my physical health shafted me sideways. Would I give up my career to get my health back? I don't think so - I am so proud of what I've done so far, and how important it seems to be to others. 2014 is going to be a fight. I wan...

UK fans: I'll be on Channel 4 tomorrow night at 11.05pm doing a rap impersonation of UKIP leader Nigel Farage. Tune in. If you tune in I'm more likely to be on telly again in the future! Non-UK fans: here's a funny man in a suit rapping. This is a free video by the way so you aren't paying anythin...

My ear problems are the worst they have ever been today. It just seems to be a condition that's worsening and worsening, while the ENT specialists I've seen don't seem to care because I "can hear". This is a real bitch and every day is a struggle to keep motivated. I made my Patreon account to help...

It is splendid to have you guys as an elite fanbase on the "inside". I'm going to be testing new lyrics and ideas with you before I unleash them on the public I think. But due to the time of year right now, family Christmassy things are taking priority. To fill the time, here is a photograph of me f...

Hey Patrons, I just wanted to say thanks again for signing up and having faith in me. As well as the things I've mentioned, what else would you like to see on the private feed here? Things I may not have thought of that would make it really worthwhile for you... Meanwhile, here is a very old photo...

This is the very first post on my Patreon only stream. Isn't this exciting? Now, in honour of the guy who created Patreon, Jack Conte, I shall post one of his videos. This is well worth watching, I can assure you...
