The Player Of Games

There’s inadvertently been a bit of an Ian M. Banks obsession taking route in my current music labelling - I’m currently reading “The Player Of Games” by Banks (superb bloody book by the way) for about the fourth time in total - and really enjoying it - it’s definitely one of my favourite all time “Culture” novels - inbetween reading it and the rest of life, I started just playing a bass line, ended up putting some stuff around it, fattening it out more and more - when I’d finished, I liked it, and to me, my reading seemed to have carried through into the music.  Not even sure why, and I guess if you read the book, you might see any connection at all.  Still, got to take the inspirate from somewhere :)
