It’s NOT Your Birthday…

I moved to Chicago 6 years ago. I was 25 and ready to party. Compared to what my life was like back then, I’m prolly the most boring person ever now. I went to school from 8 to 4. Worked at this restaurant from 5 to 1230 or 1. Partied from 130 til 330. EVERY NIGHT. This is no joke. I barely sleep as it is now but back then I don’t know how I survived cuz I really never slept. This went on for like 3 years. I met Reisha and CC at that time and we partied non stop.

One year on Reisha’s bday we went to Sonotheque. She drank a gazillion drinks and passed out in the bar, like full on sleep on one of the couches style. They kicked her out and were like tell your friend she can’t sleep in here. LOL.

Mine and Reisha’s bdays are exactly two weeks apart. We went to Sonotheque on my bday too (this was when Sonotheque was the shit and I used to go there like every week) and the bouncer looked at Reisha and was like “Remember, it’s NOT your birthday, behave yourself.” It was hilarious.

The reason that I’m telling you this story is because yesterday you would have thought it was my birthday and not Bass By The Pound’s. LOL. I had so much fun. I didn’t even get out of control drunk or anything. I just had a really good time. Everyone was in a good mood. Submorphics had a really great set. Total Science killed it. I danced a bunch. Submorphic’s buddy Sinistarr came in to town for the show and hung out. Stunna joined in the festivities too. Juju fell asleep but then woke up and showed up at Lava and I was happy she came and kicked it. Really good turn out for BBP’s anniversary. It was just an all round good night. It’s nice to drink a bunch, hang out with your friends, listen to good music, have fun and not be hungover the next day. 😉

Tunes:
Human Factor feat. Emma BrammerThis Way
Nice simple tune. I like the basic pretty ones every now and again.

Today’s Oldie:
Dj Zinc Hear No EvilPolydor 2003
Love this one. The Marky & Bungle remix is great too but the original was really good to begin with. I’m a Zinc fan. He has good tracks. I don’t really like a lot of his newer stuff but I do own a lot of his records.

SpinnThe Cycle (Dec 5 ’08 Bassdrive Archive)
No tracklist. Just 3 hours of good tunes. He had a guest mix from Aaron Bond on there too which I was totally digging.

La-di-da

I wish I had exciting things to tell you today but I don’t. LOL.

Going to Seminar tonight. It’s their 11th anniversary. Woot woot. Total Science is playing along with my buddy Submorphics. Should be a good night.

Tunes:
Will Miles 1 Week Later Been hearing this one for a while. It’s out on vinyl now.

Today’s Oldie:
Vinyl SyndicateMan Of StealUrban Takeover 1998
Hmmm. I can’t say I really cared for the whole Superman theme to this tune but I did kinda like the bassline. In my rave days, any rowdy bassline warranted me dancing in front of a speaker. I really wasn’t too picky. LOL. Remember when there were all these weird novelty jungle tracks that had theme songs from tv shows and shit? I’m happy that era never made a come back. I don’t actually own this record but for some reason today I was thinking about a rave I went to where everyone was going gaga over this tune and figured it wouldn’t hurt to post it as my oldie. 🙂

Kiki Saw You & Him…

It’s raining and it made me think of this amazing Orange Juice Jones video. LOL. This video is pure hilarity. “You cold busted!” I can’t embed it but you really should check out the link if you’re bored. Awesome.

Orange Juice Jones – The Rain

Tunes:
Sincere Bootleg Ooh I’ve been waiting for this one. I couldn’t find a link before but I’m happy to share one with you now. This is a great bootleg.

Edward Oberon – La Vacca (track is in the player)

Today’s Oldie:
Cyantific Quiet StarHospital Records 2004
I don’t have some great background story with this tune. I just like it a lot. It’s a good tune.

Bassdrive Fuzed Funk w/ Jason Magin – Rainy Day Rollers 11/30/08
No Tracklist – Just liquidy goodness.
I was happy to come across this mp3 because it’s perfect for what’s going on outside here in Chicago. It’s raining cats and dogs! What a strange phrase. I’ve always been a big fan of the rain, as long as I’m not in it.

We all know that I listen to Bassdrive all day every day but I’ve actually never listen to Jason Magin’s Fuzed Funk show. It was a welcomed treat to my morning. I really enjoyed it.

Manic Monday

“It’s just another Manic Monday o oo o”

I loved that Bangles song. What girl in the 80s didn’t? Susanna Hoffs was the shit. Don’t get me started on Eternal Flame. LOL.

I actually had a really great weekend. A lot of hanging out went on.

Saturday I had to go to Chuck E. Cheese for my Jessica’s kid’s bday. What a nightmare that place is. My child will NEVER have a party there. The other parents kept saying to me, “this is probably making you decide you don’t want kids” but actually I wasn’t thinking that at all. The place itself was horrible not necessarily the children. Bad kids are bad because of bad parents that has nothing to do with not wanting kids. Chuck E. Cheese’s atmosphere is just chaotic on it’s own, that’s why I thought it was insane. I needed a nap after only being there for an hour and a half!

Hung out with Dan and Jay. Dan’s heading home to Romania for the holidays and I haven’t seen Jay in ages so it was nice to spend some time with them.

Hung out with Reisha, mixed a pretty nice old skool set and played with her baby.

Spent all day hanging out with Stunna yesterday after I picked him up from the airport drank and talked about dnb. I talk about Stunna a lot because he’s one of the few people that doesn’t mind rambling incessantly about dnb with me. Submorphics come in at a close second as he has become quite tolerant of my aim convos and doesn’t seem to mind keeping me company at work. LOL.

Told you a lot of hanging out went on.

Tunes:
Beatkonexion feat. Mike Romeo – Soldiers (track is in the Mike Romeo player)

Lynx & Atlantic Connection – Danger Zone (Submorphics Remix) (track is in the AC player) I didn’t really like the original of this. It was ok. The remix is dope though. Very sexy.

Today’s Oldie:
Mental PowerPurple (Barcode Remix) – Formation 1997
I had Formation Records nostalgia and mixed a little Colour Series/Country Series/VIP box set in my old skool set on saturday and was like ooh I gotta put the Purple Remix as my oldie for monday. This one goes out to my buddy Rob from my JVC crew. We were both big fans of this track.

Oh What Up Friday…

Normally, I anxiously await Friday’s arrival. Not that I’m not happy to see you Friday, I’m just surprised that you showed up so quickly. I can’t believe how fast this week went by.

It’s fucking cold. I know I live in the midwest but still, whenever winter finally makes an appearance it’s a surprise to me.

There’s an mp3 of Gerard’s show feat. Lenzman here if anyone’s interested.

Tunes:
Amaning – High Life (track is in the player)

Sinistarr – Recovery (track is in the player) I must say I personally am not usually that into Sinistarr’s stuff, but I am really digging his latest tracks. This one, and the other one I posted the other day, Detroit Diesel, are just fire.

Today’s Oldie:
The TerroristChopper (Shy FX Remix) – Dread Recordings 1996 Dancefloor stormers! Holla! There’s no way you can play this track and not have everyone go nuts. Banger indeed. Awesome.

I really don’t have any plans for this weekend. Whenever the cold hits my immediate reaction is to figure out how to stay cozy all day every day. I’ll be working on that for the next couple of days I guess. 😉

Spinn is on in at 9am cst. Tune in. I will be.

Have a nice weekend.

Oh the Time Bandits.  I loved this movie when I was younger!  🙂

Time is escaping me today.  I can’t believe it’s already 1pm.

This will have to be a quick post as I’ve kinda got a lot of crap.

Tunes:

BCee – Consumed (track is in the player)  Really loving this one.  So pretty.

Today’s Oldie:

Dj SSRollidgeFormation Records 1994 This tune is heavy.  Seriously amazing.  I remember listening to this record a lot and just being in awe of jungle.  We’ve already talked about my need for therapy because of my obsessions, in the early to mid ’90s Dj SS was a serious one.  I was all about him.  When I finally started mixing I bought every Formation record I could get my hands on.  This is a classic must have tune.

Haven’t listened to this yet.  Tracklist looks good.

Kiki On A Roll

I feel determined and productive and ready.  That’s a nice feeling.  It means that I will actually get things done.  I’m on a mission people.

Tunes:

Lenzman feat. Jo-SEmeralds (track is in the Lenzman player)  Everyone’s kinda been geeking about this track and I so wasn’t on the bandwagon… at first.  LOL.  The more I hear it, the more it grows on me and now I kinda love it.

Paul SG & Eros – Cape South (you can hear Cape South on Eros’s page)  Heard this one on Overfiend’s show.  Nice easy going pretty Brazilian type vibe to this tune.  I’m definitely digging it.

Today’s Oldie:

L DoubleSaturday Night Flex (Rollers Revival Remix) Labello Blanco Recordings 1997 I keep making it harder for myself every morning that I forget to look at my records and pick out an oldie.  It becomes a process and a half.  Stunna had an awesome one for me today but I couldn’t find a good sample and I at least like to have a nice mp3 to showcase these great oldies.  I finally remembered this one.  Oh I loved loved loved this tune.  Me saying I love a tune is so lame these days but I can’t help it.  I really do love dnb therefore I love all tunes obsessively until I get sick of them.  *shrugs*  Saturday Night Flex was so organically rowdy how could you not help but love it?  I remember when we had L Double come to Minneapolis and he was the coolest dude ever.  The rave was called Hijack and we had it in an airplane hanger.  I love thinking of old rave times in Mpls.  Warm memories.

I guess I’m having a Lenzman day today. 🙂  Submorphics turned me on to this mix Lenzman did for Gerard’s Drive By show on Kiss 100.  You know I enjoyed it since it has Theives In The Night on it.  I don’t have an mp3 but you can listen to the archive on the Kiss Kube for the rest of this week.

Hated It!

WordPress gives you a stats breakdown of the details of how many people read your blog, incoming links, what search terms they used etc. There’s the usual dnb artists and what not that people enter as search terms but the one that I find crazy is the amount of people that seem to find my blog by searching for Blaine Edwards and Antoine Merriweather. There’s one post from ages ago where I commented on my overuse of the term “Loves It” and said that it reminded me of Blaine and Antoine. It’s mindboggling and awesome at the same time how many people read that post. Damon Wayans’s outfits were always off the chain! I along with your average Joe love Men On Film and figure they deserve another shout out today. 😉

I can’t believe we’re in December. I’m quite looking forward to Christmas this year. I just want to hang out with my family. I love it when I get to see all my brothers and sisters. This year is the 5 year anniversary of my stepfather’s death and in my mother’s culture we celebrate the life of someone who has passed every 5 years. There’s a big ceremony and a party so everyone will be coming home this year.

My family was supposed to make their wish lists and I couldn’t think of anything I really wanted. Ever since I came back from Africa at the beginning of this year I just found myself getting rid of the desire to want unnecessary items. I saw that my family over there basically survives with no extravagant items and are quite content. I racked my brain for like half an hour trying to think of things to put on my list and could only come up with 3 things??!! What happened to my greedy child status? LOL. The three things were bedsheets, “Extras” dvd box set and 10lb dumbells so I can do my weights workout routine at home. *sigh* Yes I have officially become a grown up.

Tunes:

LogisticsDaylight Creeps In (I just heard this for the first time on the mix I posted below. I guess it’s only on the Japanese Import of Reality Checkpoint. Good track nonetheless.)

J-Cut – The Beginning (track is in the player)

Sinistarr – Detroit Diesel (track is in the player) Heard this one on that Mace & Clart mix I posted yesterday. Dope.

Today’s Oldie:

Undercover AgentFive TonesJuice Records 1997 Oh man. This is one of the first records that I actually figured out how to use the phono/line button while mixing with. God help anyone who was listening to my sets in 1997 cuz I’m sure you got really sick of this record. LOL. It’s nothing fancy, just a nice simple rolling bassline track. Good stuff. I would still play it today if my copy wasn’t so scratched up and clackalacking like nobody’s business.

Came across this mix today. The tracklist peeked my curiousity so I decided to give it a listen. I enjoyed it. It’s an interesting contrast of tracks.

Snow

Snow. Boo. I’m not ready for it yet but unfortunately it’s here and it’s not pretty like I want it to be, it’s just murky and grey.

My Thanksgiving holiday was really awesome. I just hung out with my mum and ate food. Got back early yesterday and just hung out with Reisha and her adorable baby.

Back at work. Back to the grind. It’s really hard to be serious when you’ve done nothing for 4 days.

Tunes:

Benny Page & VisionaryDon’t Worry/Youths Today Sometimes you just love cheesy tracks. This is one of those times. Don’t worry has my favourite dancehall vocal ever “Say Wooee” so I can’t help but love it. A majority of the time if you just put a mainstream song that I like to dnb and the bassline isn’t shit, I’m bound to love it. LOL. I could do without the vocal on Youths Today though.

Tha Substitutes – Roxy (track is in the player)

Today’s Oldie:
Ryme TymePaybackDSCI4 Records 1999 I went through this phase during jungle/hip hop era where I would constantly throw hip hop acappellas over my mixes. I got pretty good at it for a while but I’m not good at doing things in moderation.  I am quite the extremist.  I did the acappella thing so much that I got sick of it and haven’t really ever done it since. This track was one of my favourites. I had a JT Money acappella of Alright and it went so well with Payback. It was a really fun mix to do. I have a lot of DSCI4 records but this one was definitely one of my tops.
