Jacques Greene - Lay It Down (UNO002)
Right, let's talk about some music again.
Second serving from New York's UNO imprint, featuring Jacques Greene on a wickedly bent acid tip. In contrast to the fancied House of his 'Another Girl' and 'The Look' hits, 'Lay It Down' is more rugged and acid tweaked, almost like Levon Vincent going toe-to-toe with Maurice Donovan. Remix reinforcements meanwhile come from Whatever/Whatever, furnishes the groove with more muscular bass and warehouse-ready cowbells, and then there's 'What Are You Feelin'?', a signature and much in-demand JG cut which has been in circulation with Mary Anne Hobbs and the Night Slugs posse for some time already. Class 12".
Fantastic release of swung, good vibes house with intricate details in the percussion and punchy frequencys coming from the bass. Big up Jacques Greene once again.

Suddenly, Summer!
I need to apologise for my weekend of inactivity, summer arrived unannounced. (How rude of it.)
Check this picture I took with my phone, not a single cloud!
My tan is pretty awesome right now though....
Anyway I have a really dope video for you. It's not long and trust it'll leave you going "wow, that was next level"

So my favorite game is now FREE TO PLAY, biggup Valve on that one. Not sure if I like or dislike this move yet, guess we will find out in a week or so's time. It'll either ruin the game or it wont change it at all. I'm hoping for the latter, obviously.
For those who have an interest in gaming, but havn't played TF2, its really worth checking out. Double so now is free!
Linky Here to TF2 site.
Also: Valve (the makers of TF2) recently ran a move competition award thing. There was about 20 different catagorys and all of them are equally awesome, my favorite is below. It's only a minute long, check it!

Some chilled dubby house.
Summer is here.... 28 degrees on sunday (which is awesome for the UK!) and the vibes are rolling.
This track is so soothing but progressive. Makes me want to go for a long late night drive around a empty metropolis...
Such a good tune, the dubbed out guitar progressions are so sublime...
You guys like it?

FACT Mag - 20 best: Grime
Now normally when people mention grime music the standard assumptions come to mind - rough aggressive lyrics, a dangerous music scene where artists are more than willing to physically hurt (and some cases kill or shoot at) other atists, and lots of beef.
A ya know, while this is true in a way - i mean, no smoke without fire after all - but im beginning to descover another side to grime. Or at least, dig in under the shell and research it a bit more.
Fact Magazine recently put up a great article titled "20 Best: Grime" - its a great way to get some proper first hand knowledge of the genre, rather than some rude boy from Reading offering to shoot you with his gat.
Article here - 20 Best: Grime
If you don't read the article, at least check this tune:

Lo-fi instrumentals that sound like they’re lost in the snow – grime’s romantic side never quite came out like it did here. Widely unknown gems for years (‘Funktions on the Low’ was wrongly uploaded to Limewire as Ruff Sqwad – ‘Havana’ back in day, and so it’s still often miscredited).

I've started uStreaming!
So now i'm hooked up on the Technics 1210's (See my earlier post!) I decided to start doing some uStreaming!
I'm really impressed actually, the video quality is decent enough, and the audio quality is great for a live stream - but best of all, you CAN RECORD! How awesome is that? And it lets you save it forever!
So, ladies and gents - I give you: ME, making a tit out of myself on camera on the turntables.
Had really good fun recording this - all completely unplanned, which got funnier as time went on and I drunk more beers.
Sure was funny! It all gets a bit 80's about 1 hour 20 in!

So I picked up a pair of these today....
My first set of 1210's! So stoked on these right now.
I could write a massive review on these things but if anyone knows anything about turntables you've heard it all before. These decks are like easy mode mixing i swear. Really impressed.
Got them 2nd hand but they seriously look brand new, theyve come in much better condition than i had expected.
I'll get a better photo tomorrow, camera phone doesnt work so bad in low light!
Also: new handlebars.

Austin Peralta - Endless Planets
Who likes jazz?
Yeh so I know this album has been out for ages now but I had a moment earlier whereby I went through some music from earlier on in the year and fell back in love with it.
These guys are out on the brain feeder label so you know its good stuff, and probably not what you're expecting. The particular track i've linked, Algiers, is 13 minutes of pure mesmerizing awesomeness.
I seriously recommend anyone whos into modern or older jazz, or anyone familar with a Brainfeeder label to check it out!
Link over to Boomkat!

Sony hacked.... again.
Sony hacked again, 1M passwords hit
Hackers struck anew against Sony, breaking into the website of its movie arm Sony Pictures and posting the stolen data online.
LulzSec, which had earlier broken into the sites of Sony Music Japan and Public Broadcasting Service earlier, claimed to have compromised the private data of over a million Sony Pictures customers.
Original article here.
The reason I am posting this is because I'd like to raise awareness of internet security. Also of people simply don't know you even need security, let alone that their information is vulnerable.
This really is the next battlegroumd, and the blackhat hackers will steal more and more data as the years progress. Hacking used to be reserved for corporate espionage but now I think we will start to see hackers taking advantage of systems for their own gain - remember, many hacker groups have stated that the REAL pro's can do it without being detected, and groups that go public do so only for political purposes. People should be lucky this time it was too make a point and not profit!

Vicky D - This Beat is Mine
So I have a massive soft spot for 80's dance/house. 1981 I think this was first pressed. Such a grooving tune, and a great tune to throw in a set to lighten the mood inbetween the acid basslines. Funky!
The oldschool flavour is coming back in at full force now, it's not longer about whos got the newist tracks ya kno....!

Bok Bok - Southside EP
Bok Bok's new EP dropped today (I think it was today at least) and I got ahold of my copy ASAP.
Everyone loves Bok Bok's output right now. Aswell as managing a label and putting on nights at clubs, he is also a spot on producer and DJ.
My favorite track has to be Silo Pass (Featured in the video below). It's old school grime connections just hit somthing with me that makes me pull a screwface and brock out. Love it.
What are other peoples opinions of Bok Boks sound on this ep?
Do you like where he is taking himself (and the label?) recently?

Something a bit different. 90's grunge time!
Yeh so, before I got into eletronic music I was heavily into 90's grunge. In fact, I think the first ever album I bought was Superunknown (From which this tune is off). I still have a bit of a soft spot for the stuff - but I rarely go looking for new material these days.
Nothing beats Chris Cornells voice!

As promised...
As I promised here is the blurry photo of the previous tune.
Long live vinyl, this medium can't die, the message is too strong!!
Also: got this a few days early, not out till monday iirc - everyone loves a cheeky early whitelabel!

Blawan - Getting Me Down
I'm on a MASSIVE hype over this tune. It's just so bouncy and energetic. I first heard it when Pearson Sound played it out at a gig in Southampton, and it went OFF.
Pretty stoked I managed to cop one of the limited pressings, should be here tomorrow! As usual i'll probably post a blurry picture of it.

HD-25 II's
So blogger was down yesturday for me - sorry about that.
Today these arrived, Sennheiser HD-25 II's, and i'm REALLY stoked on them.
I bought them mainly for DJ use rather than monitoring, but seriously these have such a good, full bodied sound. Right down to the deep lows, through the midrange right up to the knife point sharp highs. Really impressed.
Admittedly the build quality isn't "right up there" - and by that I mean they feel slightly plastic - but they feel far from fragile, i feel confident I could rip these of my head during a mix and not be worried about ripping a driver off.
But tbh i've come to aceept that from midrange headphones now - all the money goes straight into the drivers. And man - what drivers they are. Stoked right now.
Also: Metal.

Slow house.
Bit of a mystical story behind this track. Basically I was searching through my phone and I found the title of this track written as a note - I have NO idea when i first heard it, why I wrote the name down or ANYTHING. I've literally on idea how it got on my phone.
So basically before I knew it was this sick chillout slow house tune it was just a random word "trickski pill collins" - the hell? Gave it a google and this was returned.
Its a pretty awesome track aswell. Kinda chillout background music vibe, makes me wanna sit outside with a BBQ and a tall drink...
Enjoy.

So we had some new hiphop last post...
Time for some older stuff.... 1996 vintage.
Not sure why but i'm really feeling hiphop agian right now. I go through stages. I think the slower beats and lyrical flow is a nice break from the relentless 4x4 130bpm stuff that im mainly listening too right now...
Meditation buisness, chill thing, head nod flow....

Review: Boddika - 2727 EP
First impressions: wow.
This is the best release I have bought in a LONG time - and not just for the music.
The physical product is brilliant, full gate folded sleeve complete with amazing artwork inside. All printed on a really weighty card with a glossy finish, really sets the product apart from the rest.
Brilliant art direction as always, keeping in like with the rest of Boddika's typeography and visual langage as previous Swamp81 releases - the end product here is really well made and complete. No corners cut.
Then theres the tunes - fantastic 4 records indeed. Tribal beats, analogue synth mastery and agressive high-hats. All on the 4x4, housey tip with triplets coming from garage influence, with techno and acid influenced melodys to accompany the big booming 808 basslines.
There are two 12" plates, both a nice, think weighty plate with deep, clear grooves cut. Again, nothing skimped on here. This is vinyl done properly.
I'm not actually going to review the music as such - mainly because I find all music reviews end up to be pseudo-artistic waffle - it was more the product I wanted to talk about - i'll let you guys check the music if you want.

Tunes like these...
From the other half of producer-badman-duo Intra:mental comes Jon Convex. Another awesome solo project putting out just as sick tunes as Boddika.
This track has summer vibes all over it. From the garage influenced bassline to the chopped vocals, SICK.
Love dance music right now.

Series: |The 10 best British indie record labels - in pictures
This is a really cool article, the ten best British indie labels, with some lovely pictures to boot.
Whats your favorite label? There are so many more i'd love to put on that list, but I sense this went for "the bigger picture" rather than whats current right now.
Give it a few years and Swamp81 will be on this list for sure.

Gonna have to apologise for this.
Alright, ive been STUPID addicted to Portal2 past few days so thats the reason for not posting anything.... at all.
And Im still deeply addicted so this post is going to be rubbish also.
So I pose a simple question:
Coke or Pepsi?
Im 100% Pepsi myself, love the stuff.
Okay, I PROMISE my next post will be slightly more insightful and worth reading.

FACT mix 239: Jamie xx & Oneman
Everyone should know Oneman's name by now. His selection and skill on the turntable has been (pretty much) unmatched since forever. Dude is straight up a badman. Jamie XX is new to me, but ive been feeling his output also. Some of his works with Gil Scott Heron was fabulous.
I anticipate good things about this mix, the linky is here:

Spring + Sun + Countryside + BMX = Awesome.
I love this time of year, and Summer. I also love where I live. 10/15 minutes from city center, but far enough out that the countryside is also only a ten minute walk/ride away.
I picked up a new value this past weeks: never complain about the warmth when I also complain about the cold.
In typical British fashion, everyones started to complain "Its too hot" - fuck that, I hate the cold so i'm making everything I can of the sun and warmth.
So from now on, I shall never complain about the heat.
I also have a pretty awesome tan right now, u jelly?

Ramadanman/Pearson Sound last night.....
So last night I saw Ramdanman/Pearson Sound for the first time, in a darkly lit, small, quite cosey club. And it was off the hook.
People with questionable jaws, a dude doing the same motion for 3 hours straight, people knowing every drop, shit laser lighting, sweat dripping, rewind on Deep Inside, that messy girl on the table, bass heavy, groove loaded tunes, fucking SICK.
Oh yeh and I managed to take that hilarious picture of Ramadanman looking rapey as shit. We had prime position all night long.
So many new tunes played, and for once I wasn't drinking so I remember everything, intense. Many tunes went off so hard, and many tunes it was the first time i've heard played out. Woo Glut was incredible.
I could link so many other tunes but this'll do.

Mount Kimbie - Abbey road Debuts
First posted from Future Frequencies (cheers buddy!)
So I absolutly love everything Mount Kimbie puts out, without fail. Massive fanboy right here. I was absolutly shocked when I saw the link posted on Future Frequencys - mainly beacuse I HAD NO IDEA. And it aired LAST NIGHT.
So big hats go off to 4oD for archving stuff so us slowpokes can watch back. Seriously good performance right here but a stunning pair of artists. Watch and listen to this video, and feel more awesome than you did 11 minutes ago.

Mark Fell: vortex studies
I have been a big follower of Mark Fell and his duo, SND, for a few years now. To me, the music is more of a concept driven journey, the way I listen to it is more akin to the way I'd go about watching a film, rather than some background music whilst I do the dishes.
So naturally i'm quite hyped to hear there is new material on the way, aswell as a sweet interview with Mark on the FACT website,
It's worth reading, and checking out the music aswell. You never know, you might like it.

New 2562 Album
Not sure if im slow on this one, but im pretty hyped for this release.
Personally I love everything 2562 has ever done. I'm a right fanboy in that respect and this album is no different. Love all the choppy breaks, the dubby and techy synths. Great dance music right here.

I know there is alot of controversy surrounding this record, but I decided it was more than worth the tenner or so store credit I had over at Chemical Records.
So it arrived today, it's my first Burial on wax. So i'm looking forward to it immensly.
Thoughts on this release?

This is me playing on my BMX.

A friend took it for me, and I processed it.
Just a little thing too say "Spring is fucking awesome."
