What's the terminal velocity of a tombstone?

24 03 2007

I ask, because it might come in use one day. You never know.

I have a couple of nice tracks to share with you today – before I run away into the bushes and dance around with my goggles on at Equinox tonight.

The first is a new BLAMMA! BLAMMA! remix. I’m really liking the stuff they’ve been passing my way, and again I like this one. I might be a sucker for chopped up vocals, so this track endeared me from the start.

Blamma! Blamma! vs Maximo Park – Terminal Velocity

I also still have their previous tracks available.

Next is a Midnight Juggernauts song that’s been floating around for a while, but “Is it an atom bomb? Is it a tombstone?”, in this case it is a tombstone.

Cheese on toast and sambuca mixtape

17 03 2007

First appearing over at wonderful and oft visited Missingtoof, La Grève Générale has made a new mix! Their previous one rocked my socks and so obviously I have to post this one. This one is slightly less hip-hop orientated – but that’s fine by me!

Friend's request mashup mix

8 03 2007

I'd like to thank the academy

A while back I did a friends request mashup. It involved some crazy artists I had to attempt mixing (hey, YOU try mixing death metal, IDM, the music from the game DOOM, some Beck, and Paris Hillton). It’s about time I do a new request mix – I might be insane, but hopefully my mixing over the last few months will give me some mad skillz to tackle what everyone throws at me.

Rules are – you can request an artist, or you request 2 specific songs. I’ll probably only mix one, but having a choice gives me some room to work.

[ Special shout outs to His Whoreness for a delectable package of music arriving in my mailbox yesterday, you rock dude ]



Playing RDU show 7pm

1 03 2007

I’m playing on RDU 98.5fm tonight at 7pm (New Zealand time, or 0600 GMT). There is streaming available from their site.

If you’re looking for something to listen then – please tune in :D

Plus two hours later at 9pm I’ve got my Electrosplunking show, where I’m having a go at playing psytrance. Unfortunately no streaming for this station yet (they are working on it) but I’m recording the show for a friend, so I might share it here if it’s any good.
