It’s Ain’t it Black tonight at the vibey (but ever sketchy) Favela chic, Great Eastern St.
Expect the usual synth heavy 80s funk and electro selection from 7oel, Food Soundsystem and me and christophe.
I’m in a ‘wishing I was still on holiday’ kind of mood so just as well I’m on early (thinking a moody-downbeat-electro […]

Best known for his excursions into the outer limits of scifi electronics and freaky remixes, Joseph Quaid returns this week with a mix highlighting the influences and aspirations of the firemusic sound. It’s a head-y brew of deep detroit flavoured soul and futuristic afro rhythms boding well not just for the deep range series as […]

When you are as singular in your approach to a certain kind of groove as we are at basilika towers, there is a danger that the cut ends up going too deep, too dubbed out. That in trying to highlight the ‘good stuff’ you end not leaving enough room for a track to breathe. The […]

Christophe and I are down at favela chic tomorrow-glance to the right-.It’s gonna be a serious selection of synths, electro, vocoders and air bass classics
Was amazing last time-formation dancing/killer tunes/really freaky crowd.
As ever it will be the ulysses 82 exclusives we will be most excited about playing.
Here’s one from last time.

We’re slowly getting […]

It’s nearly 3am. This is sounding just about right.
The ink’s still wet, enjoy.

There are a million mp3blogs out there. 95% are way too caught up with following hype machine to have much to say and being crazy into music myself it can be hard finding anything in the other 5% that isn’t either wayway too niche or stuff you already know.
It’s this scarcity of quality that makes […]

 
 Christoph has a cold.
I need to pull it together though, as I’m DJing tonight alongside Jaksoul @ AINT IT BLACK 7-1am, Favela Chic. It’s a night I/we’ve been hyped about for a while now, an although I feel like I’m underwater right now, I’m still looking forward to it. For now, here’s a little nice up for ya, courtesy […]

It’s gonna be the freakin bomb.
And just so that you know we’re serious.
deele-bodytalk (u82 know the deele-yo dub)

Contract negotiations got off to a rocky start this weekend with the bar’s management accusing christophe le funk of ‘pulling a j-lo’ after initial requests for boxing-style introductions upon entering the venue were rejected out of hand. Turning up to the meeting wearing his paper mache ’superfly-weight’ champion of the world belt was probably the […]

Could be our last gig at the elbows for a while, (depending on how those pay negotiations turn out-I think christophe asking for his own personal ‘talc dwarf’ might be the rider request too far). Which would (kinda) be a shame cause they have really started to warm up in recent months. Oh well, new […]
