The Blues

Let me explain why there’s a song on my new EP with Drunk Pedestrians about the blues!  I’ve been studying for the wayback machine.  Basically I’ve been writing the lyrics for this up and coming EP about Time Travel, ‘Marvelous Adventures of the Wayback Machine’ and it’s been like a constant history lesson.  Not that I’m complaining!  Continue reading

Back to the Future Day

It was ‘Back to the Future’ Day 2 days ago, I thought I’d bang on about it even more as I’ve always been obsessed with the concept of Time Travel ever since I was a pup.  The ‘Back to the Future’ trilogy are some of my favourite films ever!Continue reading

Vinyl Digging VS E-Digging

There appears to be a debate over vinyl digging VS e-digging in this day and age.

Kool G Rap VS Celsius

So I did a remix Kool G Rap VS Celsius.  Basically combining one of my all time favourite rappers Kool G Rap with one of my favourite dance tracks in recent years, ‘Incoming’ by Celsius.  I took Kool G Rap’s a capella from the track ‘Ill Street Blues’ and put it over the top of the ‘Incoming’ track.  The result works rather well in my opinion (but then I would say that).  It really changes the dynamic to the G Rap’s lyrics compared to how they fit on the original ‘Ill Street Blues’ beat.Continue reading

Funky DJ Mix

I put together a funky DJ Mix of some of my favourite music.  When I’m not rapping and making beats I also DJ, hence my bio ‘Rapper, Producer AND DJ’…. Other than the numerous DJ gigs I do, I rarely get to show off my DJ skills so I thought I’d treat you to a DJ Mix I put together featuring a lot of my favourite music. It’s not just in the realm of Rap and Hip Hop that you might know me for. There’s also a fine mix upbeat Funk, Soul, House and Garage.  I like to mix genres when I DJ as there’s such a huge amount of insight you can gain from listening to numerous forms of music even if you’re strictly a rapper.Continue reading
