Steady music.

Lettering assignments take the calmest of hands.

Intellect.

This week has brought the start to my first school year. Long nights of espresso and homework are yet to come, but the future does hold promise to many a night time drive, with night drive music.

Revisiting.

It's been quite rare lately, me falling upon music that fits the moment perfectly. It used to happen all the time, but I have come to the realization that I have not been keeping music close enough. Taking it in for a temporary span, but not letting it grow in my mind. Paul Kalkbrenner recently did the BBC Essential Mix. I have one record from him, that I swear will wear out sooner than later. It's my own "lost in translation" song. I throw it on, sit on the couch, and give my mind a chance to think about nothing at all. This Essential Mix is doing just that for me right now.

The download is included in this stream. I really recommend it.

Forgotten News.

Recently I've been filling the time watching documentaries. I just came across a well done piece on the demise of News Of The World and Rupert Murdoch. Strange how the mainstream news eats up stories and then spits them out shortly after.. I haven't heard anything about this situation recently. Not to mention what happened to that whole Wikileaks saga.. Not a word has been said in the recent time.

The video is split into 4 parts.

Celebrating two years of dancing while the records spin, with hopefully many more to come.

Extending the Beat Ceiling.

Greetings. I've decided to revive the life into this blog. It has been quite some time, but the time itself, has come. With a recent and fully intended abandonment on social media, I felt something was lacking. The scattered emails to friends, with links to youtube videos and songs that I had come across, seemed not enough. I needed a central hub, left to the reader's discretion, where I could share items of interest, without the concern of followers or wall spam. Anyhow, enough with the rambling. Here are a few things I currently "like". But not in that way, Mr. Zuckerberg..

My good friend Luis from Balanced Records sent this over.

I first found out about this small series from another friend, Ian voulesrandom, when he sent me the first installment based from Bristol, UK. It caught me at the same time as my infatuation with Julio Bashmore, which made the feeling grow.

Caught in a revolving door of musical interests, I can say my current favorites are in these two genres. Detroit techno, and UK funky/Garage. I blame it fully on the Benji B show on BBC radio 1. It's just too good. If I could leave with one piece of advice, I would recommend listening to his show every Thursday. Amazing.
