TOP OF THE FLOPS

2011-12-27T09:36:00.000-08:00

So I was waiting to get an email from the dudes at Boomkat asking for my 2011 top ten, but for some reason it never appeared? Urgh. Well anyway, I didn't want to keep you waiting any longer so here it is in all its gory forms. The reason there are thirteen tracks is cos thirteen is better than ten. Obviously.

CRIMES

2010-11-02T06:11:00.000-07:00

Yesterday the Metro reported on the now legendary Scumoween, this year held in a disused building just off Tottenham Court Road.

"Several police officers were hurt and at least seven people arrested as hundreds of Halloween revelers held an illegal rave in central London. David Ameri, 24, who lives in a squat in west London said "There was music everywhere! Trance, electro, progressive trance and psychedelic progressive...."

I think we all know what the real crime here was.

2010-10-28T03:20:00.000-07:00

Summer is well an truly over, it's freezing cold, my shoes have got holes in them and I can't afford a coat. I am miserable. I was going to put up some photo's showing you what we got up to over the summer, however I think this one of Z-Shed original Crappa-T sums up everything quite nicely.

DO THE TRUFFLE SHUFFLE!

2010-10-27T10:01:00.000-07:00

Every evening the same guy comes up to me and asks for some money. 'I need to get to Homerton hospital', 'I need 50p towards the doner kebab fund', 'I need to top up my electricity metre', when in actual fact I'm pretty sure he just wants money for a nice fat rock. Now Murderbot's at it too, asking for money so he can, wait for it, 'make a film about Juke'. No Chrissy, I will not fund your filthy habit!

I went to Blackmarket the other day to pick up a copy of Hatcha's new 12" Dirtee Tek out on Special Branch. First of all I went downstairs and she was like 'naaaaaah' it's on a funky tip, you can grab it upstairs. So up I go, they grab me copy, I'm listening to it and the dude standing next to me looks all aggravated and he's like 'naaaaaaah' that should be downstairs, it's 140. Now I'm sitting on the bus going home and I start thinking, is there a moral to this story? And I decided actually no there probably isn't.

ZOMBIEZZ ZOMBIEZZ ZOMBIEZZ

2010-05-03T08:39:00.000-07:00

I bumped into DeVille on Saturday night and he kindly hooked me up with this ridiculous piece of wax. New Era is a kind of half time D&B monster and Zombiezz is... well, ummm, errrr - you'll just have to listen to it! Full on rave bass from the man like Kanji, out sometime soon on Senseless Records. Don't miss out!

The other day I met this nice girl called Gabrielle. She took me to the Stour Space in Hackney Wick to see a band called Pseudo Nippon. You know that weird-naked-electro-frog hat-shouting-jumping-screaming type music? Well, it was kind of like that. Check em out!

2010-04-12T23:46:00.000-07:00

On Saturday me and my house mate Rick went to a party in the flat across the hall. I was pretty much ready to leave when I noticed they were projecting this crazy film onto the wall that I later found out was called Pink Flamingo. I looked it up on Wikipedia and apparently it's a 'transgrissive comedy'. All I know is that there's a scene where a dude tries to fuck his girlfriend with a live chicken. Mental.
