MUSIC

Thanks for making DJ T-1000's recent European DJ Tour a great success! Lots of great people and great venues. Thanks to Triumusic Paris, Dynamix Berlin, all our old and new friends in France, Spain and Scotland, and all clubs, promoters and party-goers for making it possible, and we are grateful for your support. See you all in 2005!

DJ T-1000's "Glitch + Destroy" EP will be released March 2005 on Inzec Switzerland. The minimal set will be his first new release since 2002's "Neutra." The album cover will also feature a new Oldham painting. For more info: www.inzec.ch

Oldham is also currently working on lowtempo mood/film music under a new psuedonym yet to be announced

We are now taking bookings for New Year's Eve. Please contact us at info@puresonikrecords.net and we'll connect you with our booking partner for your region

ART

The newest group of releases from London's New Religion label featuring striking album covers by Alan Oldham (including Detroit Techno godfather Juan Atkins' "Back to Basics" EP) is out and in stores now

Also look for more new Oldham artwork for the Seventh Sign label (w/ music by fellow Detroiter Keith Tucker) out of Glasgow coming in January

After years of label art and album covers, we are now going BIG. We are readying our European gallery debut for 2005. The shows will feature large-scale works

VECTRA # 1 is complete. The new comic book fully created, written and painted by Oldham. 2 complete issues must be submitted before we can get proper distribution, so the work continues

And a reminder: the art book "Product, Baby, Product: The Art of Alan D. Oldham" is on sale now at www.cafepress.com/alanoldham

WRITING

"The Last DJ On Earth: My Life and Times in Detroit's Techno Underworld," Oldham's long-awaited and sure-to-be-controversial autobiography, is in the final design and proofreading phase. Available soon at: www.cafepress.com/alanoldham.

Oldham was asked by the legendary Mad Mike Banks himself to write the liner notes for the upcoming Underground Resistance CD retrospective, "Expect No Mercy." Check www.submerge.com for details

BEST WISHES

To our European booking agent, Natasha Lodh, who is moving from Germany to Spain. Good luck with the move (we may end up being neighbors)! Also, a farewell to Alexandra Droner, who has left Tresor Booking for new opportunities. She was one of our best friends in the Berlin scene and we'll miss her presence
