Carnivore-l

This weekend we did a VoodooRadio CARNIVAL SPECIAL for our regular slot on West London's InnaCityFM.

Myself the Jambie alongside Ray Nulds playing out Firey Roots, Tropical Beats, Sunshine Bass, Ghetto Bounce and everything in between.

It was a really fun one.

Now up on mixcloud.

Modern Vampires Of Blood

Sh*t's real.

And it's been up on YouTube since summer '07!!!

JUKestacy

Been digging through old Databass and Twilight 76 releases recently to see what's been pressed, and found this wickedly rushy DJ Boogie 12" from back in '02.

Starting to really feel the ol' Aceeeid and D.E.T.roit Tech heritage in all this Juke and Jilt sh*zzle. There are chicago house, dance mania, ghetto, bass and booty links in the footwork scene out there at the minute that I've heard talked about already - but going further back there's this whole really rich ravey musical lineage to both Chi-Town and the Motor City that I've not heard mention of yet in direct connection with the newer sound.

The links to the pioneers are definitely there though, and I think flashes come through particularly strongly with the mad sampling and general oddness of the newer trax over the far more booty / profanity based 4x4 stuff of yesteryear.

Check here, here and here for classic jukejilttechworktastic plastic - if you're that way inclined.

Dr-I Cry

Works for me!

I'll put up some other sh*t up when my interests broaden out a bit.
And maybe kick the puns.

But not for now.

Irie Friday everybody.

Foot-not-working

If anyone's noticed a distinct lack of new posts up in here recently then apologies - lots of distractions are gwarnin, not the least the fact that I have broken my big toe.

I kicked a tree. Won't be doing that again in a hurry.

Anyway - sh*t's still been going down. There's a second VoodooRadio online instalment now up on me mixcloud, for those of you that are interested. Last weekend marked the return of Ray Nulds after a busy few weeks, and we did our usual thang as well as putting on a very short juke exclusive at the end - running through some classics alongside tracks from DJ Nate's sh*t ur pants debut 12".

Expect much more of that to come over the next few months.

The irony's killing me (ref. blog post title).
