Whoa! Ch-ch-check this one...!



So one week or so after discovering the how awesome the Jus Like Music compilation is - which has been on repeat on my system allllll week - they bring out another one, which you can find here. What a choice thing to stumble across as soon as you wake up when you really should be writing an ethics essay...

This one features ill beats from the likes of me ol' fave Slugabed, the very cool 8Bitch, and a whole bunch more. It probably won't leave the speakers for some time.

Been playing loads off the first compilation up at radio and at the Ginger Minx on Wednesdays, the ultra synth flavoured, bass-heavy wonky goodness is just awful hard to pass up on!



So anyway, THIS IS THIS SATURDAY! DON'T FORGET! COME ALONG, IT WILL INDEED BE THE THE FUNNEST OF TIMES IN THE MOST GLORIOUS OF SURROUNDINGS WITH THE MOST ENTERTAINING OF PEEPS!

"Vibes inside the ride!"? - Thats me sounding like a real promoter, not the pretend one I actually am...!

Another Free Album



Alright, so the ID and Baobinga behemoth was ballistically bangin' and buckwild, well, I found another free album, ironically linked from the very cool bassmusicblog where the Binga & ID beats originated...how gloriously convoluted!

Anyway, here it is, one of the wickedest in wonky, worry-free wonderful warthogs I've come across. Download it for free. Beats from that man Om Unit again, Le N?ko, T. Hemingway...gosh it really does just go on.

Also incoming is the crazy, strange, weird and wonderful combination of Gonjasufi - A Sufi & A Killer. Pitchfork had this to say on the matter...

And, looking a little deeper, I found you can get free download of their track "Ancestors", at the Warp Music site here. The Realness!

And because, whats a blog post without a video, I bring you this:



If you find yourself in the Pacific Northwest for the NZ winter, then make sure you keep an eye on Photosynthesis Festival...this may or may not be related to the above vid...

Shouts to Patricio for the Raglan fest, big up all the crew who made it down...shit I hate to think when the next outdoor frivolity may be...might have to head south for a bit of mid winter psy! (couldn't find any decent quality videos...take my word for it)

What am I going to do today? get deep into some free music at the free music archive...linked is the Polka section...

A Flyer, A Video And Another VERY Exciting Thing



As promised, here is the flyer! Getting excited for this one, theres so much great music out there at the moment to smash out in a genre non-specific show such as this one.




This chap Om Unit is on some next level style at the moment. Check his soundcloud for a whole lot more, including free download of his Mizz Beatz "My World" remix.

While loitering on soundcloud, check out a fellow called Benjamin One, and have a gander at what he's got going on. Lots of tasty treats there!

In other news of the world, might I direct your attention to this lovely piece of video:



I'm not the hugest Bassnectar fan these days, but this video - woohooo more Burning Man - motivated me to track down a bunch of dope stuff for a sunrise set this sunday morning at the Raglan Dance Festival...

Heyoka

Buuuut theres more. Use the internet to find them. Anyway, look at this:

Well I'm on holiday now. Time to crack the red wine and get stained.
