Bryan Jones WMC 2009 Mix


Winter has now officially ended. Spring has arrived. Its almost time to get the bbq and a few beers out and head for the sand. This mix of Chicago House by Bryan Jones would be fitting for a day out in the sun with a few beers and some burgers of the disco variety.  Its proper house music in a traditional sense, very funky, very happy and very organic from start to finish with lots of nice percussion, bass and no gay singing.

Kate Simko Live Techno Set


Recently I stopped smoking. Today was day number 9 and fairly frustrating and irritating at points. To say this techno set by Kate Simko soothed me is an understatement. Very hypnotic and fairly minimal at times. If you are looking for some in your face, jump up, hands in the air action this one is not for you. What makes Kate's set so enjoyable is all the little subtleties and well sculpted sounds. 

All in all I found this set very nice to listen to. Once or twice I thought It was going to start getting boring only for a new cool sound to come in and kick start things again.

I don't really have many words to describe this thing 
(especially at 8.30am) other than 'wow' and 'awesome'

Mr.C @ Zoo Project, Ibiza


Mr C shows his class once again at an old abandoned zoo in Ibiza. Really nice, funky, techy excursion from the man behind superfreq, the legendary night at Layo's club the end (which is now sadly closed down). High quality audio and video, this one is definitely worth watching again... and again... and again...

Cool Electronic Musical Instrument


How cool is this thing? 

The designer describes it as "A set of a recorder, a glove with sound sensors and a pair headphones helps musicians create and record their own sounds and rhythms.  The point is in friction between surfaces and sensors. Different types of surfaces enable the user to make sounds and create a rhythm by tapping. The recorder attached to the glove runs a piece of software which records sounds in preset modes and plays them via wireless headphones in real time. Such recording is an input for further editting and electronic music creation."

Sounds like an amazing concept. Just a pity it doesnt actually exist yet.
