Up! style

Somehow, a one-page dubstep exposé found its way into this month’s issue of Up!, alongside aero-sedatives like “The 2007 Canadian Value Golf Guide” and a thing about lighthouses. The scan is clicky. Check out Sen’s […]

Tuesday, May 29th, 2007

… and killed it. The turnout wasn’t huge, but really quite good for a rainy Sunday night in a government town. More importantly though, the vibe was fantastic – people bang into the music, some properly shocking out up at the front. These were new sounds for a lot of people in the room they […]

Autonomic mix: This one is computerised

Wednesday, March 2nd, 2005

My first “DJ” mix on a computer. I put this together in Ableton Live using a mix of ripped vinyl and mp3s. Like I was saying, p2p is the new diggin’ in the crates (see previous post re: cannibalism). Enjoy 0:00 – Dizzee “Hoe” (Refix) 0:00 – Plastic Man “Pump Up the Jam” 0:00 – […]
