While Damon busies himself with Gorillaz, Alex James has spoken about his current side project Wigwam. However, bass player Alex James has confirmed Blur will be in the studio this month to continue work on their next album.
Speaking to the BBC, James explained he’s currently working on what he calls "the perfect pop product" with singer-turned-pop impresario Betty Boo, aka Alison Clarkson, on a project called Wigwam.
However, he confirmed that while Blur will be back in the studio this month, he admitted that getting back together with his Blur bandmates isn’t always a walk in the park…
"It's like a family and you all get together before Christmas and it's great to see everybody, and then after Christmas - Christmas being an album and the album making process - you're like 'see you next time!' through gritted teeth."
He also revealed that he has his eye on another extra-curricular project.
"I've been talking to Steven Berkoff about turning one of his plays East into a rock musical. It's a fantastic piece of work. He wrote it 25 years ago and it's just so bright and fresh still. I'd love to get involved with that."
Following reports that the new Blur material will be more lo-fi and stripped down than their previous work, James' bandmate Damon Albarn spoke to Xfm recently and explained that fans will probably be able to hear new material from the band pretty soon (if they can find it).
“I think we’re gonna do an EP first, sometime by the end of this year,” he confessed, “But you probably won’t know about it. It’ll just ‘come out’. It’ll be so, sort of, underplayed. It’ll come out but you won’t know it’s us as it’ll be so, well, not us.”
“We’ve got the songs but we’re gonna record them in a few hours and just be very laid back about it. But not musically laid back. It’ll be aggressive. Aggressively laid back. It’s the total opposite of Gorillaz.
"I can’t really make another Blur record that’s a big landscape sort of thing, due to my very basic guitar ability. Cos I want to sing and play so it has to be three chords. I can only do three chords and not look at the guitar.”
Albarn also kyboshed the idea of getting a new guitarist to replace the long departed Graham Coxon saying, “What’s the point? We’d never be able to get one as good as Graham.”
He also admitted that Blur would be playing some live dates towards the end of the year, saying they’d, “Probably do a couple of pubs round Christmas, to be honest with you. It’ll be nice.”
Tu neuf et du moins neuf

J'ai été agréablement surpris par la qualité de cette chanson.
C'est dansant,la ligne de basse est assez groovie dans le style de Girls and Boys ou Entertain Me,les paroles n'ont pas spécialement de sens et c'est chanté par Betty Boo (Alison Clarkson).
D'après ce que j'ai pu lire,Alex joue les parties de basse et de guitare et ce single sortira le 6 mars.

When they pulled Artie out of Claire he didn't make a sound. I was sure he was dead. Claire was crying and saying, "Is he alright? Is he alright?" I said, "He's just fine darling, don't be silly."
I stuck my head over the curtain. The surgeon performing the emergency Caesarean was rummaging around for the other one. She said, "I've got his feet!" and pulled him out like a rabbit out of a hat. He was about the same size as a rabbit at three pounds. She said, "Twin two delivered Oh seven Oh nine." Twin two was squeaking. I held Claire's hand. The babies were attached to machines. There were nine people, plus us two. Each premature baby needs two specialists. There was the anaesthetist, surgeon and assistant, and people with clipboards. I wondered at the cost of it. On a bank holiday, too. It reminded me of a live broadcast television studio, brightly lit and full of expensive equipment, also with no second chances. It was utterly amazing
Bon alors quelques news du gars qui a vraiment une maison, une tres grande maison à la caaampagne...
Tout d'abord un article tiré de ses écrits ds des journaux :
Thursday was going well. After lunch and stories with my manager at the Electric and a coffee with Damon on Golborne Road, I popped in to Swaine Adeney Brigg with a voucher that read "Gift of your choice" and grabbed the most beautiful suitcase I've ever seen. I paused for a chocolat liegeois with a Blue Peter presenter in the Wolseley before jumping on the 17.32 out of Paddington. On the train the office called and said that Steve Winwood is up for joining the local band. Jeremy Clarkson is having crammer drum lessons on his Keith Moon special monster edition kit. On Friday there was TV crew here in the morning asking me about David Cameron, who lives in the next village but one. In the afternoon, Graham Coxon called. I haven't spoken to him in a couple of years. I said, "All these crazy things are happening! I think this cheese I'm making might be magic cheese." He said it was the world that had gone funny. That morning he'd had a message from the office to call Paul Weller and then another one saying could he please call Pete Townshend. Graham and I used to live in a squat together in Lewisham, unable to afford cheese or guitars. He's going to come down in his Range Rover with some of his cherries. Later on, I overcooked the aduki beans. Usually this would put a downer on things, but I was feeling strangely buoyant.
Pour y voir plus clair comme un fin de samedi soir sur canal, il à l'air de monter un nouveau groupe suite à cet article de ce type Clarkson (exit dc Wigwam? de tte façon cela aura été un sacré flop commercial, pire que le Love travel machin chose, ce qui n'est pas rien convenons en) http://driving.timesonline.co.uk/articl ... _1,00.html
Et en plus Mr va animer une émission de radio tiré d'une emission de Tv Anglaise, avec notamment Mr Tony Wilson(Factory records) http://www.nme.com/news/tube/24793
Et sinon, il fait du fromage chez lui.

Je crois qu'en terme de positionnement Média et marketing pour son bouquin, il à super bien géré son truc.
Remarquez un People, comme Alex James on aimera bien en avoir des comme ça en France...

Bon comme d'hab, si vous voulez entendre parler de la vie à la ferme chez les James c'est chez the independent qu'il faut aller voir, tte les semaines un nouvel articile sur les vaches, et sa production de fromage qui lui tient trés à coeur. Cela dit en bon Français, malgré ma curiosité et mon admiration pour le monsieur, jamais je ne mangerai un fromage Anglais. Faut pas déconner quand même.
Alex James dans the Independent 22.08.07 a écrit :So the rubbish side of things is going well, I'm comfortable with my junk, got my chickens and my signature cheese product. I've signed up for a couple of cows. They're bound to come in handy. All I need now is a pergola and some statues. What? Another Blur album? I'm busy.
Ca commence à bien faire les blagues.
