Datawhore (Jeremy Gluck)  is a sound poet based in the UK and creating solo or collaborating with a number of other artists. The alter ego of cult musician Jeremy Gluck of The Barracudas, Datawhore's sounds cover a wide spectrum, from the outrightly ironic and satirical to the very serious and intense.

After a considerable layoff for other creative pursuits, Datawhore initiated a collaboration with fellow Canadian michael dent, himself formerly of first wave Toronto punk band The Dents, which have now been compiled onto Div Joyvision, selections from which have been remixed featuring luminaries such as Mick Harvey of Nick Cave's Bad Seeds and now Killing Joke's Youth.

I saw you painting
I realised how much I love you
To see you painting
Made we want to own you

I know you love me
You've never told me
You'll never let me
Love you love you

I saw you painting
I realised I'll never have you
To see you painting
Made me lose my way to you

I saw you painting made me
Know I will never understand you
You'll never understand me
I saw you painting yourself away from me

I saw you painting
I won't forget you
I really want to
Paint over you
Disappear you
Or disappear with you
Painting us can't be

I Saw You Painting ("History" Mix) - Jeremy Gluck & Laurent Menot

Norwegian artist Small Mountain climbs Eastern Eye. Text by Jeremy Gluck.

Eastern Eye ft. Lisa (Small Mountain Mix)

Best known as songwriter and lead singer of “The Barracudas”, who achieved European chart and cult success as recording artists in the early to mid-1980s and whose following, worldwide, continues to grow, Jeremy has actually spent his entire adult life as a multi-disciplinary creative force influencing many young artists at home and abroad. Born and raised in Ottawa, Canada and having voluntarily expatriated to the UK in 1978, he straddles two continents, deriving inspiration from Old World to Punk for his prolific creative endeavours as singer, songwriter, visual artist, poet and novelist.  As an accomplished solo recording and performing artist, Jeremy has collaborated with, and had his songs covered by, leading musicians worldwide. Collaborations with Marty Thau, Brendon Moeller, Lydia Lunch, Dub Gabriel, Nikki Sudden, Mick Harvey, Rowland S Howard and many others have signified Jeremy Gluck as a unique voice and spirit whose versatility and innovation constantly evolve and break through apparent boundaries. Jeremy is currently engaged in multiple remix projects with international artists, performing in the United States and Canada, as well as writing and recording new material with his Bristol-based trio “The Carbon Manual”. An avid collaborator, Jeremy instigates new work constantly, the momentum of which has brought a stream of accomplished online and limited edition CD releases. In a transition Jeremy sought from legacy cult artist to acknowledged creative maverick.
