FTC Invitational Skate Competition

FTC "For the Ca$h" 2010 Invitational Contest from Mecky Creus on Vimeo.


FTC is a skate shop in San Francisco on Haight Street, in the Haight Ashbury area.  When I lived in San Francisco, I lived in Lower Haight, on Haight and Pierce.  Haight Street is pretty much one of the coolest areas in the world.  Seriously.

Anyway, FTC turned their store into a mini-skate park for a skate competition.  Check the video, it's pretty dope!

Pariah

Last month Pariah did a mix for Sonic Router, and it's definitely a keeper.  Filled with bits of house, techno, garage, and 'what do you call it'. it's recommended listening.

They also did an interview with him, worth a read!

Dashiel's "1+1=3" Mix

Dashiel's "1 + 1 = 3" Mix by Dashiel on Mixcloud

A mixture of dark Funky, future Garage and Dubstep.  These are more or less the tunes I've been battering constantly.

It's called "1+1=3" because I've tried to mix each song together and hold it overlapping to create a new transitionary third tune.  Blackdown talks about this in his review of Oneman.   It's recorded live, one take.

Hope you feel it!

I rate Douster, me.

I was the first to play this tune out in Norwich at the Garden Rave, and it's spread like wildfire throughout the city of N-town since.

Douster's Myspace

Here's the version I've been playing out.  It's a bit more cleaned up and DJ friendly than the original in the youtube video, but gets the job done like Leon on a killing spree.

Douster - King of Africa (Homework edit)


Anyway, he's recently gone an done a VIP for alls youz.  Bit more mental, yet to road-test it on the dancefloor.  I'll report back, but in the mean time, go check it:

Douster - King of Africa VIP

Here's some other Douster remixes I've been feeling a lot.  "Anaconda" is pretty much the "Disco Dodo" of the Dubstep world, so big respect for even going near it!

The original track 'Woo Boost' by Rusko is rather uninspired, but Douster actually makes a pretty banging electro track out of it.  Recommended.


Untold - Anaconda (Douster Dagga Robot edit)

Rusko - Woo Boost (Douster Remix)


(btw, all these tracks are sourced from the gleaming white whales of the limitless pool of mp3 blogs out there, so big up Gotta Dance Dirty, Pelski, and Wizards are Better.  All mega sick blogs).

VBS - Skate Europe - Italy

Here's part 1 of VBS's 'Skate Europe' series.  It's a pretty cool insight into Skateboarding in Italy, especially the old 80s videos.  Worth checking out.

Watch the whole thing over at the VBS website here.  I would post it here but Blogger doesn't allow the embed script from the VBS site.  Ho-hum.


Another note, VBS were in Norwich at a clubnight I was dj'ing at on my birthday (large up Pow!).  They spring on me with a camera asking for my political views and who I was gonna vote for.  I professed the Liberal Democrats, and they then asked what political issues concerned me.
My mind went blank and instead of talking in depth of my support of Human Rights, Net Neutrality, and protection of public services, all I could come up with was a more liberal drug policy and how terrible it'd be if the Tories got in.

I reckon it came across more like this though.



NOT THE ONE!

Fazhands is a lot!

If you're lucky enough to be in LA right now, I urge, no, IMPLORE you check out our good friend Fazhands who's dj'ing out there right now.

Fazhands has the triforce combo of being a banging DJ, a sick minimal techno producer, and possibly being one of the safest blokes in the land.

Fazhands is dj'ing at Occidental College Outdoor Party tonight.  So head there sharpish!

All is not lost, as on the 2nd of April he'll be be dj'ing at The Avalon with some dudes called Tiefschwarz.

Here's a selected discography of Fazhands' productions:

Fazhands - Seven Synths ft. Charo

Fazhands - Joie D'Vivre

Fazhands - Sobersided

A1 Bassline - Girl Thing (Fazhands remix)

His Flush EP is also heading for an imminent release, here's a sneak peak:

Fazhands - Mulberry

Fazhands - Flush


Gwan Fazhands!

(Large up Gotta Dance Dirty for the mp3 links.  Check out their blog.  It's sick).

Pipedown Clubnight 02

First things first. Pipedown is a sick blog.  So check it out right away.

Second of all, they're putting on a night next week, and it looks pretty swish.

Here's the lowdown:

Pipedown returns to The Rhythm Factory for their second night. With them they are bringing the Keysound Recordings crew, a label that has put out some of the finest dubstep, garage and grime music over recent years. 
Label heads Dusk & Blackdown take charge of proceedings carrying on where their debut album Margins Music and monthly sets on Rinse left off, seeing them DJ is the only way to hear their new tunes. The enigmatic crew LHF are Keysound's hottest new signing and sound like "Sun Ra's hijacked Rinse FM and is using it to communicate with the heavens." Then there's techno meets swung house from Kowton whose Statis (G Mix) found it's way into the record boxes of heads like Benji B, Mary Anne Hobbs, Kode9, Ben UFO and more.

Facebook Event

Bundled with proceedings is a cheeky mix from that enigmatic LHF crew.

I ain't a master with the lyrical wordplay see, so I'll let the silver-tongued folks at You Can Call Me Pelski describe it far more elequently than I ever will.

"Essentially the selection is a gentle marriage of dubstep, garage and lo-fi sentiment. It's full of delightful contradictions: erratic and yet soothing; downbeat yet uplifting. And, ultimately, weird and wonderful. The mix essentially goes for something sublime, stringing together jagged bursts of bass and sporadic, stripped back injections of jungle. It's woozy tribal elements, that clang, echoe and shimmer, at times give it an ethereal feel. Captivating."


Fair enough.


Download the mix by right-clicking and 'save as' on this sentence.  Yeah!

Hot Chip: I Feel Better

Off the new album "One Life Stand", this is a superb pop song with knowing and extremely timely echoes of UK Funky.

This video is particularly a bloggers dream as it has been directed by Peter Serafanowicz. The star of his own self-titled sketch show featuring the cult comic sketch Brian Butterfield, cuntish housemate in Shaun of The Dead ("the door is open again!") and all-round comedic genius, Serafanowicz has outdone himself with this video. Utterly bonkers and pleasingly left-field, Hot Chip and Serafanowicz seem like the perfect match.

As I mentioned earlier, there is an unmistakeable soca tinged, funky rhythm to this single, which isn't a surprise as Joel Goddard, perhaps the principal producer within the group, is a big fan of Garage and Dubstep, and cites Sticky, Jameson and Skream as big influences. "I Feel Better" is crying out for a club-friendly remix, one that emphasises its dancefloor quality.  Any takers?

The Return of Ms Dynamite

Here's a piece I did for my UTR blog, which ties in nicely with Get Low's movements in the coming months. Hold tight for reveals on some of our nights featuring Ms Dynamite very soon.

The return of Ms Dynamite

2010 looks set to be a stellar year for UK Urban music, crystallised by the return of several legendary artists of the 90’s and early millennium. Keen to re-acquaint themselves with the vibrant and lucrative club scene bursting out of UK cities, artists such as EZ, Sticky, MJ Cole and Zed Bias have been busy re-assembling their classic tunes into bass heavy stompers capable of competing for dance floor love alongside the weighty productions currently favoured by the countries top DJ’s. However, it is the re-emergence of the legendary Ms Dynamite that has set pulses racing amongst clubbers, promoters and journalists alike.

After years spent in a post-garage hiatus raising a family, Ms Dynamite has returned armed with collaborations with cutting edge producers that have been only too happy to give a leg up to such an established artist. There was “Get Low”, produced by Rinse FM and FWD magnate Geeneus which built a fevered following last summer due to its irresistible soca rhythm and carnival vibe.



 In a clever piece of exposure, Geeneus billed Ms Dynamite as headliner of the Rinse v FWD 15^th Birthday at Matter last July. As the tune had received only minimal exposure when the line-up was released, many were surprised to see Ms Dynamite back in the picture so suddenly, and headlining London’s biggest Dubstep rave. However, what took place on the night served only to confirm Dynamite’s status as an utter legend and the true first lady of UK Urban music. Over 2000 sweaty clubbers packed into Matter’s main room to watch Dynamite perform a handful of classics. Songs like “Boo!” received a rapturous response, a sign of the longevity of the UK garage classics that have survived over the last decade. However it was the DJ Zinc produced “Wile Out” that really caught the attention. Now an established chart banger that has been given huge amounts of exposure from the likes of Annie Mac, Benji B and Mistajam, “Wile Out” resides in Zinc’s own ‘Crack House’ genre; a happy middle ground between the stomp of dubstep and the lighter dance patterns of House music.

“Wile Out” is essentially the sound of 2010; irresistibly catchy and forward thinking and crucially, girl friendly. The huge rise of Dubstep over the last two years has been largely driven by a male majority; clubs have often become home to topless groups of guys throwing each other around to the latest wobbly anthem from Caspa or Rusko. Ms Dynamite brings a refreshingly old school response to a club culture that was quickly beginning to resemble a big boys club. Her status as a female role model and her ability to seamlessly shift from the mainstream to the underground means she appeals across demographics, social strata’s and sexes. She has arrived at the perfect time to spearhead Dubstep’s onslaught on the mainstream, and with top producers behind her and the wealth of experience and nous that a Mercury Music prize winning and million album selling artist can hold, 2010 looks set to be the year of the Dynamite.

Win a test press of 'Tron', signed by Joker

All eyes are on Joker for his next move, having created havoc on dancefloors all over the world last year with huge remixes for numerous major labels/acts and anthems such as 'Digidesign', 'Do It' and 'Purple City''. He has defined the colourful synth-led melodic style within dubstep that's become known as 'Purple w0w'. 'Tron' is his biggest tune yet and will be available with an exclusive VIP version just for the digital package. 

It's a rare piece of music that can unite a diverse range of DJs such as Diplo, Kode 9, Shy FX, Flying Lotus, TC, Caspa, Pinch, Skream, Roska, Martyn, Ginz, J Da Flex, Baobinga, 2nd II None, Reso, Oris J, Cosmin TRG, Appleblim, I.D, Guido, Mike Paradinas, Gemmy, Atki2, Tomb Crew, Bok Bok, the Get Low Cartel.... just to name a few.  Release date is scheduled for April 6th.

Anyway, enter your email address into the widget below to be added to the raffle to win said Test Pressing with Joker's signature.  Only 15 exist in the whole world, so crack on.

Yeah, we focus on Dubstep a lot; but it's probably the most exciting and significant underground music genre of our generation.

Some ones to watch for 2010

EZ all, these are (some of) my picks for who's gonna make waves in 2010.


MENSAH

Mensah is a badman producer from Bristol.  I met him when he came to Get Low last October with Joker and Goth Trad on the line-up.  He's releasing an EP on H.E.N.C.H soon, doing collaborations with Noah D, and just generally being a safe as fuck bloke; his entrance into the main Dubstep fraternity is imminent.

Cannae wait for Acid Dub to drop.  Pure hype hype hype.




Download his  1Xtra mix on Redlight's 'In New DJs We Trust' show HERE




PARIAH

Pariah is hotly tipped young producer in the branching Future Garage scene.

Detroit Falls and Orpheus (on the flip) is out on the 29th March.  Instant bagging.







SWINDLE



















Swindle is a sick producer making banging Grime beats.  Heavily pushed by Elijah & Skilliam on their Rinse FM show, and with good reason.  If Grime is to have any future or fuel in it's engine, it needs producers like Swindle.






JULIO BASHMORE















'The Moth' was the standout track for me on Fabric's 'Elevator Music Vol. 1' EP.  He's already signed to Claude Von Stroke's label Dirty Bird, which automatically makes him a badman.




Download his mix for Vice Magazine HERE
