polinski2:

I had a crazy interesting time in my head last week at the FutureEverything festival in Manchester.

I played a show there on the Thursday - my first with live visuals, supporting Dieter Moebius who was doing a re-score of Metropolis.

His show was great, but the highlight of the…

We’re very pleased indeed to announce Ghosting Season and The Proper Ornaments join the Live bill for Rolled School, plus Polinski (65daysofstatic) doing a special laptop set!

On the decks, we’ll have our old friends Death By Shoes and the Small Ideas boys and girls. It’s going to be a big night…

Early bird tickets for this extravaganza of skate and sound are still available, and we’ll be adding more to the lineup soon. Here’s some audio from the above to get you excited. Only just over a month to go!

I’m gonna be doing some kind of laptop/electronic set of my stuff after Errors play the Ice Rink in Sheffield on 5th May. Not quite the same live show as I toured at the end of last year, but similarly full of over-the-top melodrama and fuzzy synths.

I’m slowly disappearing down the 65 rabbit hole, so Polinski live shows (apart from this and the A/V show I’m doing at FutureEverything on 17th May) are likely to be thin on the ground for a while. So. If you wanna see me make some noise, the North is where it’s at.

I’ll post actual links/info when I have some.

Hello.

In addition to my show in Switzerland next week, I’m very excited to announce that I’m off to Japan a few days after that for four shows out there. Here’s all the dates:

• 5th January - Schüür, Luzern, Switzerland. TICKETS.
• 14th January - WOMB, Tokyo, Japan. TICKETS.
• 19th January - Club Rock’n’Roll, Nagoya, Japan. TICKETS.
• 20th January - Shinsaibashi FANJ, Osaka, Japan. TICKETS.
• 21st January - Shibuya Club Kinoto, Tokyo, Japan. TICKETS.

Here’s SOME MORE INFORMATION in Japanese. Probably worth keeping an eye on Zankyo’s twitter feed HERE too.

In other news, in case you missed it, here’s a stream of my new single on Monotreme Records - an alternative version of ‘AWaltzOfLight’. Any profits go to charity. It can be pre-ordered HERE. It’s out on 16th January.

Polinski - ‘AWaltzOfLight (Alternative Version)’ by Monotreme Records

So. My Labyrinths album closes with a track called AWaltzOfLight. It’s not actually the original version though. The original version I wrote for somebody special a couple of years ago, in the middle of winter. It didn’t quite fit the tone of the record in that state, so I covered it in noise and kick drums until it made sense.

I’m still really attached to the original version and always wanted to somehow get it heard.

Monotreme Records came up with the plan of simply putting it out as a charity single, which seemed like a great idea. So that’s what’s happening. You can listen to it here:

and the download is available for pre-order for just £1 from the Monotreme Store, all of which will go to Oxfam. Which is hardly anything, right? Hopefully it’ll all add up. Technically this isn’t released until January 16th, so until then keep this Soundcloud close by.

Hope you like it.

Belatedly ushering in the new year with blips, beats and probably snow in Switzerland. Playing with Bit-Tuner.
