I've been quietly curating a blog/portfolio of my writings on world music and related topics for various magazines, websites etc. I will usually update about once a month with the previous month's writings. There's all sorts of stuff, articles, playlists, opinion pieces, loads of album reviews. Check it out if you can dig it: jimhxnwrites.blogspot.comAnd as promised:

Really enjoyed that thanks Jim, even spotted a mate TELTONE's photo of OYE. Maybe see in Seffy in June for OYE.

I couldn't find any Creative Commons pictures of Oyé 2013 (your friend's pic is from 14) - if you have any that you'd allow me to use from 2013 I would be very grateful! No Oyé for me this year - I'll be wrapping up my work in Berlin around that time and needing to earn every Euro possible in anticipation of moving to London, so maybe 2018 instead. It's a shame, what a line-up so far! Definitely at WOMAD again though, as if that were in any doubt...

Hi.Jim. Ive dropped some OYE 2013 images in the dropbox I share with your dad so if you both share a box he can pass them on. Some are JPEG's and others are the Canon RAW files. If you ever need general OYE crowd images or WOMAD images from other years your very welcome just let me know. See you at WOMAD.

Interesting link, looking forward to having a peek at it later. Thanks for making it available and good luck with the winding down Berlin and moving to London.

Here's a bump! I have just updated with the latest stuff, including a Beginner's Guide to WOMAD fave Johnny Kalsi. It's my longest published thing so far, and I'm pretty proud of it. It would be great if you could take a read and maybe give some feedback if you feel so inclined: jimhxnwrites.blogspot.com
