Radio show - En:Vision Special!

The next Re:Connect Show on NSB Radio will be on Wednesday 1st October, and it’s another tribute show.  This time I’ll be paying tribute to our big brother label, the often overlooked En:Vision Recordings, and if that’s not enough I’ll have the one and only Future Funk Squad with me live in the studio for a guest mix and a chat.

I’ll be playing a handful of my favourite back catalogue tunes, whilst leaving the man himself to give us a taster of things to come.  Expect a shed load of awesome exclusives, plus some inane banter!

Radio Show Clear Records Special!

September 3rd, 2008 – 7:43 am
Tagged as: News, Radio

I’m back on the airwaves again tonight (3rd September) 9-11pm GMT, and tonight I’ve decided to pay tribute to one of my favourite labels - Clear Records.

Key artists on the label included the likes of Tusken Raiders (aka Mike Paradinas), Gescom (aka Skam), Plaid (side project of The Black Dog), Clatterbox (aka Dark Mode, Cartel Productions), Doctor Rockit (aka Matthew Herbert), and Re:Connect Show regulars Jedi Knights (aka Global Communication).

I’ll be taking a two-hour journey through releases on the label, which ran from 1995 through to 1998, as well as classic tracks by artists connected to the label.

Anyone that’s into electronica should really make sure they tune in to this one, and those that aren’t should listen with minds well and truly open!

Breakbeat Royalty

Chief Truskooler and  all-round good chap Johan from Sound Of Habib has asked me to contribute to a new blog he’s started focussed around breakbeat.

It’s going to be Johan, General Midi, Myagi, Dan F and myself all regularly blogging about all sorts of things relating to the breaks scene (and probably beyond), and should be a good fun read.

Head over to http://breakbeatroyalty.blogspot.com/ to check out the early entries, and to find out more info, and if you’re into geeky stuff I recommend subscribing to the RSS Feed for instant updates.

high eight at glade

Thanks so much to everyone that came to see me play on the Breaksday stage at the Glade Festival this year. I had so much fun, and the weather, good company and lots of Black Rat cider made the whole weekend such a great time.

My set was recorded by the lovely guys over at NSB Radio so it’ll either be played on the station as part of their “Glade Replayed” season, or made available for download on this site. Watch the site, or join the mailing list for the latest info.
