Mmmm... Choices, dreams, action and becoming.

Things to make you go Mmmm…

"To encourage creativity by sharing more inspiration than any electronic artist.”


Three thoughts for your creativity and one on mine.


3 for you:

To do or not to do.

“Your greatest successes in life come from your disciplined effort in doing the easy things that are easy not to do.” - W. Todd Smith


Build your dream.

"The truest form of intelligence is designing the life you want to live." - Graham Weaver


Take action.

"Action produces information. If you're unsure of what to do, just do anything, even if it's the wrong thing. This will give you information about what you should actually be doing.

Sounds simple on the surface - the hard part is making it part of your every day working process." - Brian Armstrong


1 from me

You Become What You Repeatedly Tolerate.

“Your standards aren't revealed by what you say.

They're revealed by what you allow.

The promises you don't keep to yourself.
The distractions you keep making room for.
The behaviours you know aren't serving you.

Every time you tolerate something, you teach yourself that it's acceptable.

The opposite is true too.

When you raise your standards, small things start to matter.

Not because you're becoming rigid.

Because you're becoming intentional.

Your life is often a reflection of what you've been willing to accept.

If something keeps draining your energy, slowing your growth, or pulling you away from who you want to become, stop making room for it.

What you tolerate today becomes your reality tomorrow.”

🎹 This Saturday

This Saturday I'll be performing my first full London live show as Darien J at Buntu in Brixton.

It's a bit surreal to think this project has gone from an idea to a 90-minute live set built from two years of writing, refining and rehearsing.

If you're in London and would like to experience it in the room, I'd love to see you there.
