beatles vs drum and bass (free download)

Just got a link this morning from Headliner journo and DJ Ly da  Buddah who i got very drunk with @ Brainklub, Braunscwheig earlier in the year. He’s created quite possibly the funnest mixes i’ve heard in a while, a D&B selection vs a host of Beatles songs , it aint half bad! Download it yourself for free, have a listen and a sing along to ‘Hey Jude its Noisia’ ‘Hello Goodbye Blabbermouth’ & ‘Get Back Snaggletooth’ (my own titles!)  just some of the many classic mash ups in this selection! Tracklisting after the jump.

DNBTV interview

Spent a lovely afternoon a few weeks back in the hallowed halls of Drum & Bass Arena, met a fair few of the office crew who make up the tour de force team (and are all lovely, even the one who doesn’t speak much and is stuck in the dark corner), played a few new tracks and then did a little interview in the park down the road. Twas very nice :)   Watch my guinness world record attempt for the most amount of words per minute, as i ramble on about my d&b history, collaborations and new album. Oh and i apologize now for the shakey Geordie accent, sorry fam! Big thanks to all the guys at Drum & Bass Arena and HAPPY 100th SHOW for tonight ya’ll ;)

SFTD – incredible – mbeat ft g.levy

Too many tunes at last nights Ballin on a Budget thrown down by Chimpo, Toddla T, Zed Bias, STrategy & Konny Kon…could do a hundred tracks for the day but this one was the one i woke up with in my head! Slip mat down in the bath for some safe shower skanking!

Hosting from 12.30-1.30 with Mutated Forms @Sno!zone Milton Keynes for Infraction part of a massive line up as you can see above. Partying with my sister and Grid Recordings crew gonna be a very fun May the 1st indeed holla if ya see us :P


STFD splash – subfocus ft coco

This tune from the Talented Mr Ripley aka Subfocus was a classic without a vocal but i absolutely love how Coco has turned this dance floor smasher into a hard core indie pop tune. I only wish the serious looking dude in the video was Nick, he would have smashed that role, making a very credible artist/producer appearance, Mr Ripley the camera loves you and i hope to see you in your own video soon ;)


toddla t x qemists ft jennag x radio 1 = exclusive!

toddla/qemists/jenna g

Steel cities finest T-Weezy aka Toddla T played a Qemists/Jenna G exclusive last night on his radio show, so exclusive it was the first time i’d even heard it ha ha, well the remix anyways!

sing it like kd lang – konstanz raven(sburg)

Raven puzzle

Ill never be a comedian, however i make my self laugh which is the most important thing ;) Finally got my pictures on me mac from 2 weekends ago in Ravensburg, players ville south Germany…and i say that cause its famous for board games, hence a random blue monopoly house on the hill outside of town!

Raven the house on the hill

Was a really nice gig at Douala, i even got a stripper stage minus pole and the locals seemed to enjoy the performance, two even got me to sign their arms! I danced the rest of the night away in the back room with a Lemmy lookalike who’s worked at the club for 14 years, his English was as good as my German (next to none) but we giggled so much about nothing in particular til Lars started dropping the dubstep and I retired to the dj booth for some private skanking, not long after that Panda was looking a little fragile, so i had to take him back to the hotel, ready for the trip over Lake Konstanz back to Zurich in the following hours. The gig, the trip, the people were lovely, see for ya self ….
