Upcoming Radio

I’m off on my honeymoon tomorrow but thought I’d give some notice about upcoming radio appearances. I’m not sure when yet, but my latest Thirty Five mix is going to be broadcast on the Bleep43 podcast at some point. If you’re not already a regular subscriber then make sure to rectify that now. Second, a

NOT THE FUTURE!

Thirty Five

I did a mix on my birthday at the weekend. Hip hop, house and techno, mixed on the edge of my comfort zone, pace-wise. CD length. Download here. Tracklist Katalyst – How Bout Us (feat. Steve Spacek) [BBE] Luke Vibert – A Fine Line [JBC Sounds] Geto Boys – Damn It Feels Good To Be

Juno downloads and customer service

It took me a while to notice, but it turned out my last order from Juno was missing a number of tracks. All were available for download individually but in the zip files (which appear to have been automatically split at 2.5 GB) a number of the tracks/art were missing. I detailed this for Juno

A Fine Line between Wagon Christ and God

From Luke Vibert’s early productions on Rising High, Mo’ Wax and Ninja Tune through his reinvention in nearly every form imaginable since the early part of this decade, he has always remained resolutely idiosyncratic and recognisable while adapting himself to changing genres and technology.

Hessle -> Hemlock -> Hotflush

TRG and Pangaea were two of the first dubstep

Comments

I’ve just noticed that at some point recently my comments settings were changed to require login. I hope this hasn’t put anyone off, as I didn’t realise this was the case. Anyway, it should be a little more usual now. Please let me know through the new contact form at the bottom of the page

Try (313), that’s correct!

It’s in no way peculiar to electronic music that most artists fail to find ways to stay fresh. It may seem an apt critique due to the reduced bureaucracy between making music and getting it in to the hands of music buyers, but this again maintains in all forms of underground music. Prolific artists can

Massive haul

I should be just about caught up after this. Some of this stuff had a delayed digital release, which I am only now realising is fairly common (or this could be down to my over-reliance on Juno). But I also made an effort to check out artists that I’ve lost track of recently, which is
