Radio show...new and old

Another week another radio show. This is where i do my friday drive show on RDU in Christchurch, New Zealand. The studio is slightly better equipped than the old pirate station's i used to do back in the days!  No crackheads or estate's in sight! I do miss doing pirate radio though, they were some great times. 

Itch fm was a LOT of fun, for those that didnt know or were outside of zone 3 in london you might have heard of the legendary pirate station that was itch fm. Props to my homie Disorda for bringing me up on his show and getting me into radio. After covering his Suspect packages UK Hip Hop show i started the Midweek Session. I think it total i did that show for 5 years, i had my good buddy mark 563 join me on the show before he left for Australia. 

There was a number of occaisions we'd get totally drunk before/whilst doing the show! It's something i've done a few times since, usually to regret it. Me and Kashmere hosted a show for dieselU Music radio last year, we got totally smashed, well i did. i have a recording of that show which will never leave my studio! 

Anyway these days you can find me hosting the friday drive show 16.00-19.00 every friday on RDU 98.5fm www.rdu.org.nz

i try to record the show's and host them here so you can listen back, i treat my Friday drive show in a similar way the old pirate show, lots of fun and great music. Maybe i should get the 'i want 20 missed called to reload the tune' style poppin off again!

Coldcut - Sound Mirrors remix....

Been working my balls off recently getting some new music on the go and remixing. i've remixed a couple of tracks of The Heavy'. see previous posts for details, and now i just finished this remix of Coldcut's Sound Mirror's. the original is a spaced out jazzy cinematic giant of a tune. 

i've tried to keep this epic value and add a bunch of new Piano's, Strings, Bass and Drums into the mix, came out pretty good! 

hope you like it...

Nicole Willis & The Soul Investigators Ghost remix...

Bono Estente, 

Another treat from the Ghost remix archives...i did this remix 2 years ago, came out on the Nicole Willis & The Soul Investigators - Keep Reachin' Up Re-Mixed CD. This album featured remixes from Mr Scruff, Mike Slott, Simbad amongst other's. The original album wass off the hook, the remix album was equally as dope IMO. 

i remixed Soul Investigators Theme, came out a hazy smoked out Hip Hop type joint, i really liked what i did with this and i hope you do too... 

High Quality mp3 for ya at 320 bit, i hate shit mp3's!

brand new radio show, taken from last friday..

wassup yo, 

here's another edited installment of the friday drive show on www.rdu.org.nz

This show features tracks from Silkie's album City Limits Vol 1, this is a dope album! New stuff from grime producer Maniac and a whole bunch of other great music. Just so you know i edit the show to cut out the majority of the adverts and banter i do just so you can check the music. 

Last weeks show saw the first of a new segment on Friday drive, someone comes into the studio and makes me cocktails, nice. This will be happening every other week now, obviously i complained that they move it to another show but they werent having it, oh well. i'll record the next one and leave that segment in! 


spread the link around, it's free for everyone to listen

Bandcamp page now up and running....

So i decided to set up this bandcamp page and see what the dealio was, so please take a moment to head over there and cop some music! i've heard a few people talking about how great it was and it's a pretty good tool for hosting music directly to the public. You can buy WAV's, mp3's in varying formats of quality..


If everything works smooth i hope to have the joint project me, Kashmere and Verb T recorded called Invisible Inc up on there as soon as the artwork is completed. Hopefully we can sell some music and raise enough money to do a physical release ourselves, we'd love to bring that to all our great fans, we've all had a lot of people asking when it will be out, SOON WE HOPE!
