Today's show..

BRENK - CHOP SHOP LP
I found, from the supreme music catchers at Digital Diggers, Brenk's CHOP SHOP Lp.... and it is very nice, smooth, hip hoppy, soulish, but with some electronicality, making this a must listen.... download it fast before it goes. (dl in title)

ediT
I also have an older ediT track.... a remix Artsy ft. The Grouch!


Unfortunately last week's podcast has been lost into the vortex of insanity.... firstly someone random in the studio cut off the end of it, and then i forgot to get it off the computer and lost it to the weekly download.... or maybe I'm keeping demand high.....

Preview for next weeks show...

Kesha - Black Rhyme - this came out 3rd May... classy hip-hop from the supreme lyricist Kesha



more to come, internet is being a wank...

Last night...

...was a freakin cool affair down at Graffiti White. It was the busiest I've ever seen it, although I was still able to get drinks fast at the bar, and the Ill Def boys were on the decks.

As well as the music being bangin', I was delighted to be in such a happy, classy, low key, friendly (weeeow look at me go with all these adjectives) place, as opposed to drum and bass gig venues of the past, which haven't been as intimate, with music past too loud to think and crack heads fucked off their nut waiting for that State of Mind track to come on, while everyone else was dancing alone with no connection to their fellow audience members (how formal of me). There was a good mix of people too; I brought my flat mates who hadn't heard dnb before (it's true!), uni friends and RDU people.

I hope we see more of this kinda atmosphere as it reminded me of why I like the music, or maybe how I like the music.

Podcast.... and some other goods...

Here's the podcast from my first drive show... taken a while to get it sorted I know but bear with me while I get my stuff sorted... still learning about lots of stuff I didn't have to deal with during the afternoon show... anyway! Without further ado, here is my first drive PODCAST. The tracklisting is in my last post.

BUG
My new favourite thing! I signed up for a mailing list for JUST LIKE MUSIC RECORDS by accident really, I wanted one of their downloads and I had to put in my email address to get it, tricksy little website! When I saw an email from them in my inbox, I was pretty shitty as I thought it may have been a more important one, instead of some mailing list shit! However! I am very happy I opened the email, and will never overlook any of their emails again as it was a parcel of juicy beats!! In the parcel I discovered BUG - a delectable weave of atmospheric, spacey and headnodding hip-hop this is a treat to the ears. Download it... here.



JDUBS



A couple of weeks ago, JDubs released his first album Keynotes. After hearing an interview that JD with Ghost on Friday Drive and a short live performance of 'Spaceworm' from the album, I was extremely keen to get my hands on a copy. Finally, I got given the album at the RDU studios yesterday, much to my excitement. It is a classy production, jazzy, relaxing, soulful, eloquent. I like JDubs' fresh content; for example he contemplates the existance of other beings in space without sounding like a knob (Spaceworm).

I'm proud that an MC that had a show on RDU (DollarMix) has gone on to create such an enjoyable album that will continue to entertain and delight my ears for a long time to come.

The album release party is at the DUX DE LUX (wooo!) on Saturday eve from 9.30pm, with Sasha Vee (heeeeell yes!) and Aeries (who shared the DollarMix Show with JD), which of course I'm going to be attending, so head down if you're keen for some good music. Here's a taster...
