Covering for Ali again tonight as his PC’s broken… I felt in a bit of an experimental mood, so we started with some slower funky stuff, went all epic progressive for a while, then settled into a kind of electro-techfunk-psybreaks circuit for the second hour or so.
Thanks as always to all those who tuned in and the ever-random chatroom crew. Love you all, you mad people.

This coming Friday, 6th March, you can catch me playing at an excellent night in Bristol called WaxOnWaxOff, which takes place at a great little venue called Chesters on Frogmore Street. I had a wicked time at the last WO:WO (just as a punter) so I’m reallly looking forward to this one.
The music policy is a heady mixture of fat breaks and twisty psytrance, so of course I’ll be concentrating on psybreaks 🙂
Shimon (RAM/FingerLickin) is headlining, with support from Dexter Styles, Mishima and Tethis. It runs 10pm-4am and admission is only £2 b4 11, £4 after.
Hope to see you there 🙂

I’ll be joined in the studio tonight by a special guest… ROOT 8. He’s a regular fixture at some of Southampton’s best underground nights including Clinophobia and Psychedelic Saturday, so I’m sure he’ll have some quality discs to spin for us tonight.
Tune in from 8pm for another genre-hopping tech-trip!

Many thanks to special guest Cut Freqz for joining me in the studio with some fat vinyl. The first three tracks were mine, then it’s back2back all the way, mixing it up from electro to heavy bassline breaks.

We commenced with some chunky prog house, followed by a bit of electro house. There was plenty of breaks of the tech-, psy- and prog- varieties, we had a bit of progressive psytrance, then finished with some more psybreaks. Thanks all those who tuned in, and special shouts to THP and Shao for keeping the chatroom alive 🙂

If you’re in the Southampton area get yourselves down to The Hobbit on Saturday 31st January where I’m playing at a night called Psychedelic Saturday. All psy-styles are represented from the 60s to now, but with an emphasis on the more modern and danceable stuff 🙂 I’ll be playing…well…the psy edge of what I normally play, ie psy-breaks, psy-trance, psy-techno, psy-wonk, psy-dnb… you get the picture… should be an awesome party 🙂 Music runs 8pm – 1am, it’s free entry before 10pm, £2 after, and the bar stays open until 3. See you there!

Another Monday night covering Ali’s show… with added bonus beats; I played on an extra half hour because the next DJ didn’t turn up. So we went on a bit of a genre hop… progressive breaks, electro-breaks, twisted psy-breaks, tripcore d’n’b, big beat and even some psychill… seemed to go down well anyway 🙂 Cheers for tuning in, see you again soon…

Finally, here are the recordings of my sets from the Void vs Brap Tour in Southampton and Bristol, way back through the mists of time in November 2008. I haven’t listened back to these in full yet, I hope they’re ok!
The Southampton gig was loads of fun, not least because most of the tunes I played I’d bought only a few hours before the gig, so they were almost as new to me as the punters. There was a great atmosphere on the dancefloor for my whole set. So yeah I got carried away and played a really lame remix of What Time Is Love, but these things happen sometimes…
The Bristol gig was an odd one from the DJ’s perspective: inside a pub, mid-afternoon, low volume, speakers in front of the DJ projecting away and no monitors, so basically I couldn’t hear the main mix at all, yet somehow I seem to have pulled off a reasonable quality of mixing; possibly even better than Southampton’s where I occasionally got a bit lost in the moment…
I wasn’t in charge of recording these so they’re only 128k, sorry. But the quality is pretty reasonable.

First show of 2k9 kicked off with some downtempo breaks and then into dark bass’n’bleep techno, rising into chunky progressive territory, emerging into some epic and twisted electro/psy breaks, and closing out with some full-fat drum’n’bass. Fun for all the family!
