Raymond Watts and Jon Gosling did some scoring for designer Alexander McQueen's catwalk shows. If you blinked, you missed the videos we had up, but we swear it exists. Keep an eye on McQueen's page for the new collection to pop up.
Another project with McQueen is coming up, a bit bigger. We'll let you know when... oh. We'll let you know.
Before NIN, RevCo, Ministry, Skinny Puppy etc. had even hit the shores of Britain there was JUDDA, mutated from punk, rock, psyko-billy and dance bands, these members regularly packed out places in and around London circa early 1990's. Many labels tried to sign them, Chrysalis came close but soon pulled out when JUDDA decided to fight and slag-off everyone at their signing party.
In '94, JUDDA asked Raymond to remix a couple of songs. They are apparently re-releasing the originals soon (Armalyte?), so we thought you might like to hear PIG's take on them.
It's been quiet on the Slaughterfront, but the Lord of Lard is rising again from the murky backwaters behind the Ranch Apocalypse and pulling out trotters full of gems. New sonically inclined collaborators, an actual need for a Chinese translator (how do you say FUCK IT in Mandarin?), panning for those obscure Japanese television adverts he soundtracked, casting a pig's eye over the visual evidence that he used his US visa in the manner for which it was intended... a few clues to what's to come. This will all seem obvious later, but we've got to leave the water cloudy for now. (Well if they're leaning way down to see what's in there, they won't notice the kick in the arse until it rattles their bones.)
If Ol' Scratch had a swing band soundtracking a grindhouse flick...
But don't hold ya breath just yet. Ya gonna need it later. Instead, fix your gaze on a Nasty little Byte, with fond regards from the 'Mafia

Long time friend and collaborator of Raymond's, Mona Mur, has agreed to share a track that Raymond engineered for her in 1985, as well as some vintage video and live show information.
Raymond has recently completed a remix of a new song for Mona Mur, which will appear on her upcoming album later this year.
