Negative Kiki

Kiki1 Comment

So yeah I promised not to talk about the snow but I am going to talk about the fact that it’s -7 degrees right now and the high today is -1… um what? You walk outside and you’re like “Oh it’s not that cold,” but then when you have to stand still you’re like “Oh shit.” LOL. This will have to be one of those weekends where I stay in and watch telly for sure.

Tunes:
Serum & Bladerunner – Gunshots

Today’s Oldie:
Dj Die – Special Treat – V Recordings 1997
Me and Stunna and Submorphics were talking about Dj Die last night so I decided to do another oldie by him. Dj Die’s back catalogue is ridiculous. I could just keep picking oldies by him and be content. So many awesome tracks. Funnily enough, I’m actually not that crazy about Special Treat but I do remember how huge it was. A lot of people have been throwing it in their sets lately. It’s a nice nostalgic revival. I don’t hate it, it’s just not really wanna of my faves but a classic oldie nonetheless. 🙂

You Suck

Kiki3 Comments

I’m sure you are anxiously awaiting to hear how the rescue mission of my car went yesterday. Trust me it wasn’t pretty. 35 Minutes of digging and begging my car to just jump over the ice mounds surrounding it. I was covered in snow and freezing but I did it… and then it snowed last night and is still snowing right now and temperatures dropped. Nice. As I walked by my car this morning on the way to the train and saw it covered once again in mounds of snow, all I could say is “You Suck!” to the snowflakes and go on my merry way. Boo.

I am promising that this will be my last post about the snow… for now. LOL.

Tunes:
State of Mind – Division 10 (track is in player)

Mutt – It’s Pouring Once Again
I’m excited Mutt is coming to Seminar. I love his tunes.

Amaning & Stunna – Jupiter Rising / Landslide (Blame Remix)
The Landslide Blame remix is dope but I feel like I couldn’t go wrong anyways cuz I already really liked the original as it was. I like the Jupiter Rising too.

Today’s Oldie:
Dj Marky & XRS – LK – V Recordings 2002
I’m still impatient as far as waiting for tracks to come out, but thank god they take a lot less time than they used to. I waited for this record for 2 years. Bryan G played in Minneapolis this one time and played the most amazing set. I couldnt rememember most of it but I remember when he played this track I knew I wouldn’t forget it. If you know me, you know that I am a horrible track identifier. I always get names wrong, I can’t mimic the sounds for shit. They usually only sound normal to me if I sing them. You get the picture. I asked Bryan about it and fortunately he knew what I was talking about cuz he said that LK was such a big tune that everyone always asked about it. And then I just basically waited for it to come out, and waited, and waited, and waited. A year later I came across a Hospital mix that had it on there and I just played that mix over and over and over. Finally when it came out on vinyl I was just happy to own it but of course barely played it cuz I was sick of hearing it by then. 😉 Summer anthem for sure. Loves it.

Snow Ninja

Kiki1 Comment

snow-ninjaIt keeps snowing and I keep whining about it and my car continues to stay on the side street, not moved, surrounded by feet of snow. LOL. Today though, I will attack it. I will rescue my car from the snow fortress. It’s gonna take a bunch of digging and a bunch of time but I am prepared.

You can obviously tell that nothing overly exciting is happening in my life at the mo or I wouldn’t be talking to you everyday about the snow. 😉

Tunes:
Atom – Excursion (track is in player)
I’m super into Atom these days. I like this track and I also love Breathe In which I heard on Aaron Jay’s Influence Records podcast #1.

Today’s Oldie:
John B – (Salsa) Brazil – Formation 1998
I don’t like this track stand alone. I do love it in the mix though. It’s fun to play with. Formation country series… sigh, it’s very strange to think how obsessed with Formation I was seeing as I don’t think I’ve bought a Formation record in like 6 or 7 years. There are a lot of old awesome classics on that label though. Nice.

KikiLeave a comment

I had a pretty low key weekend. All this snow is really getting on my fucking nerves. As I was walking to the train this morning, I looked back at my car and saw that it was surrounded by a fortress of snow. Great. It’s gonna take me like 30 minutes to shovel all that shit. Boo.

Slumdog Kiki

KikiLeave a comment

I watched Slumdog Millionaire last night.  If you’re looking for something to watch definitely see this.  I am a big fan of that British show Skins and Anwar was one of my favourite characters so it was nice to see Dev Patel in this movie.  The little boy that played the younger version of Dev’s character was absolutely adorable.  Awesome movie.

More snow.  Boo.  I told you I bought a shovel for my car so I guess I am more or less prepared to dig my car out at all times, doesn’t mean I’m happy about it though.  😉

Tunes:
A Sides feat. Deeizm – Just Be (track is in the A Sides player)

Simplification – Love Forever (track is in player)

Today’s Oldie:
Shimon & Andy C – Body Rock – Ram Records 2001
I remember everyone had mixed feelings about this track.  I liked it.  I kinda liked it more stand alone than in the mix though.

I guess this track is super old, but I only recently started hearing it, so it’s new to me and I like it.

Today’s Oldie:
Brubaker – Huron – Gyration Records 1997
I went through a Gyration phase for a hot second.  This was definitely one of the ones I liked the best.

Cheap Like The Budgie

KikiLeave a comment

Uggg.  I got on the train this morning and completely forgot about the 50 cent fare hike.  Boo.  Is it possible for me to become more of a miser than I already am?  The city is getting expensive on the sneak tip.  10.25% tax is fucking ridiculous and $2.25 to get on the train?  Yikes.  Thank god my rent and my utilities are still on the low end.  Nothing like a monday morning gripe right?  😉

Tunes:
Recriminate – Linear (track is in player)

Xample feat. Lomax – Contra

Today’s Oldie:
Bad Company – Brain Scan – Bad Company Recordings 2000
I can use so many tracks from the Inside The Machine LP as my oldies.  I really did love it.  I was just telling Stunna this morning that I’ve been craving old rowdy tunes.  I’ve been listening to this one on repeat for the past couple of days.  It’s great to run on the treadmill to.

Toodloo ’08

KikiLeave a comment

So I made my top 25 of 2008. I feel like it’s a bit nonsense to do this because a) I cheated and just did it from May onwards cuz that’s when I started my blog and have detailed documentation of all the tracks I liked and b) I obsess over tracks so much there’s no way I like a track that I heard in May as much as I do one I like today cuz of the whole “playing on repeat constantly” factor. So this dodgy mash up top 25 will just have to do. 😉

I was going to try and pick a favourite for the number one spot but that is just utterly impossible for me. So here they are in no particular order whatsoever. Some I couldn’t track down mp3s for because they haven’t been released yet or whatever so I apologise for the lack of samples.

01. Calibre – Alone In A Crowd

02. Blame – Stay Forever

I hope everyone has a good New Year’s Eve. I’m just having people over my place and chillaxing. I don’t like dealing with the NYE crowd. I’m noticing that I really am slowly slipping into senior citizen status as a majority of the time I would much prefer to stay at my house and have people visit me than go out. LOL. I guess I’m just getting ready for when I get put in a nursing home.

KikiLeave a comment

I hope time cooperates and doesn’t crawl as slowly as it has been for the past couple of hours.

I was wondering the other day when it actually was that I got so soft. LOL. I didn’t always only like pretty, liquidy, melody driven tunes. I used to be super rowdy when it came to dnb, the noisier the better. Then out of the blue I became obsessed with girly dnb. Now, all you have to do is have a decent sappy vocal with a bassline that will make me want to rock back and forth and I’ll be happy. Noisy dnb makes me cringe. I am old as dirt so maybe that has something to do with it. 😉

Tunes:
Command Strange – Baby It’s You (track is in player)

Pouya – Surreal (track is in player)

Today’s Oldie:
Manix – Feel Real Good – Reinforced Records 1991
Definitely an awesome oldie. I loved this record so much. I never actually owned it back then. I just had it on a mix that I played over and over. I finally came across the vinyl in the used bin at some record store like 4 years ago and i was ecstatic. It was only 2 bucks!

Worktastic

KikiLeave a comment

I like adding “tastic” to the end of words.  There’s not real explanation why.  I just like doing it.

I had a really great holiday.  Nice to see the fam.  The ceremony for my stepdad went really well.  Back at work.  Nothing really exciting to report as I have been lounging around eating copious amounts of food for the last 5 days.

Tunes:
ATP – September (M25 Remix)
Track is in the player.  I already liked the original but I totally dig this remix.  I’m definitely on an M25 kick right now.

The Square – Lights In The Night
Sorry no sample.  Heard it on Overfiend’s show recently.  Check out the other stuff in his player.

Today’s Oldie:
Usual Suspects – Killa Bees – Renegade Hardware 1999
Bad tune.  Loves it.  The era of noisy rolling basslines was such a good one. 😉
