Nick Parton / Mr. Glide

Nick loves music, but music is wary of Nick. He has been writing and recording music from the age of 16, progressing from a Commodore 64, to a Hitachi tape recorder, a four-track Tascam and finally, a knackered Powermac G4.

Only a tiny fraction of this music worthy has been released on the general public, because a lot of it is dreadful. He goes under various names, such as Mr Glide, Piecey and plays in a group called Fine Excuses with Johnny Rogers.

He is not mad.

Editor's note: He is mad.
