As Mike Brown, alive and well in Barcelona, currently as some poor kid’s nanny, heads off to Petra in Turkey to work a tour guide for the summer, I am getting ready for festival season =D
Looks to be a good one this year, but my main focus is on applying for the Defcon convention in Vegas August 1. Mike won’t be back, so I’m going it alone this time, but that’s cool, since Defcon is full of MY PEOPLE (… geeks!). I really can’t image a venue that is more fun for me to play personally, I just think 3 days of Drum and Bass + Code hacking is priceless!! PRICELESS I TELL YOU! So now, to get off my ass and get a promo mix posted up by May 3, at midnight..
To that end I’ve been shopping!
I turned 39, and even though we (like everyone else) are broke, Juli let me get a few records, and Oh My God what releases there are!
SICK MUSIC 2 – Hospital
Empire state of mind (DC Breaks Bootleg)
DC Breaks Halo EP
the new Netsky…
just lots and lots of good music out right now, I’m just hoping when it gets here it proves to be as inspiring as the samples. It’s funny, in trance I had to choose maybe one song per EP and the rest was most likely trash filler, while in DnB the A/B sides tend to be not only better, but in different styles. Take for instance the new Spor EP, with the liquid vocal bomb Overdue on the B-side of a truly hardstyle DnB track called Kingdom. It’s great to see artists spread out a bit, especially since the hardstyle and dancefloor producers are making some really really edgy liquid tracks, just really deep pushy stuff that stands your hair on end!
I’m still #1 in NC at trackmania, and have been since September 2009, a scary amount of time wasted… I’m going to post later about my first track, and what I’m doing with my new team (as of Dec) ATS over at Team Air Time and Space. Check out some of the tracks these guys make, it’s unbelievable. I have a page allocated, and any day now I’ll start filling it in.
But for now… it’s promo time!
