Sultry Kiki

I’m in hell.  2 more weeks of school and tons of assignments/last minute projects to finish up.  Kill me now.

Loving this Riya.  So sexy.

Riya feat. Zero T – Stolen Moments – CIA Records

 

Today’s Oldie:

Alix Perez feat. Peven Everett & Spectrasoul – Forsaken – Shogun Audio

 

 

Not really old enough to be an oldie but my friend Melissa reminded me of this one the other day and so I had to post it.  I played this to death… I mean like ridiculously.  I totally had an obsession with Alix Perez back then.  I was all about ominously, sultry, sexy, liquidy dnb at that time.  All you needed was some dark melody, sexy vocals and some dark bass and I would buy it.  LOL.

Au Revoir 2009

Kiki1 Comment

I’m making an executive decision and doing my end of year top tracks today.  I’m going to Philly today and then I’m not taking my laptop with me to NY tomorrow so that really leaves me no time to write.

Here is my repeat of end of year disclaimers…

My list is always going to be kinda bogus.  LOL.  The tunes I blogged about towards the end of the year are still fresh in my mind and therefore get more attention than the ones I blogged about back in the beginning of the year cuz I’m not sick of hearing them yet.  The list is in no particular order.  I have been told that I have strange taste in some dnb track so my list means absolutely nothing.  It’s just a compilation of songs that I personally liked over 2009.  We also must take into account that the latter half of the year I wasn’t as diligent about writing tracks down due to the loss of my job so I’m not as up on new tunes as I used to be.  This list is just of tracks that I would have been happy to keep on my ipod for the past 365 days.

End of disclaimer. 😉

I mulled over my list for ages.  I started out with 70 tracks and could only cut it down to 30 this year.  LOL.  I really tried to narrow it to at least 20 but I really like all the tracks on the list, so 30 it is.  Eek.  This will be a long post. 🙂

Madtown Kiki

KikiLeave a comment

I’m in Madison aka Madtown.  Drove early this morning.  It’s only a 2 hour drive and since I wake up at ridiculous times I figure it’s best just to head out cuz there’s no traffic and it’s just me, dnb on my stereo and pitch blackness.  Love it.

I’ve resorted to my high school self today and have loafed around, eaten all the food in my mum’s fridge and watched tv.

Tunes:
Alix Perez & Zero T – Suffer In Silence (track is in the Zero T player)

Artificial Intelligence – Blind Eye
I love this track.  I’ve been looking for a sample for a hot minute.  I just got turned on to it cuz Random Movement played it last month on his podcast.  I guess it’s pretty old but just hasn’t been released.  Nonetheless it’s new to me and it’s awesome. 🙂

Today’s Oldie:
Shy FX – This Style – SOUR 1995

Kiki3 Comments

Shit.  Unemployment is finally getting to me.  I need to get out of my house.  Lame.  Even writing about it gets me annoyed so this rant will have to end here.

I can’t stop listening to that Giant – Drumstick VIP track. Such a party wobble track.  ❤   I know I’m late on it but you know I don’t really keep up with dubstep as much as I do dnb.  That Emalkay mix is still on repeat in my car.  Loves it.  Did you know that Enei is part of Giant?  I didn’t.

I’ve been listening to everything.  Dnb, dubstep, pop, rap, whatever switches up the tempo to my boring day.  I’m currently listening to Cheryl Cole as i type this.  Yes I’m aware that i should prolly keep that piece of info to myself but I’ll never deny my love for pop music.  NEVAAAHHH. Mwahahaha.  I still even have my Bros album on vinyl.  Gimme me a break, I grew up in London, I will listen to pop music for the rest of my life.  Girls Aloud what what! 😉

Tunes:
Jubei & Phobia – Cooper’s Dream (track is in both players)

Alix Perez feat. Peven Everett and Spectrasoul – Forsaken
I’m still listening to the Alix Perez album 1984.  So awesome.  I can’t get this track out of my head.  It’s a Chicago vocalist on the track.  Woot.  Big up Peven.

Busy Busy Kiki

KikiLeave a comment

I am still amazed by how busy I am for being an unemployed person.  I guess I always imagined unemployment to be a period of time where you didn’t do anything but sit on the couch and watch telly.  I guess it really is what you make of it.  Today is chockablock full for me.  If you are in Chi go see Klute at Lava tonight.  Lots of buddies playing, Lamebrane, Stunna, Submorphics and Subverb.  Should be a good night.  Also listen to that Zero T Fabric Live Promo mix, it’s dope. 🙂

Tunes:
Alix Perez feat. Foreign Beggars – The Cut Deepens
This track is diiiirrrrty.  Love it.  I’m actually digging Alix’s whole 1984 LP, cd and vinyl.  Nice one.

Today’s Oldie:
The Streets – It’s too Late (High Contrast Remix) – Bootleg 2004

Allergic Kiki

Kiki1 Comment

Oh man.  I can’t breathe.  I just started getting allergies about 2 or 3 years ago.  It still feels pretty new to me and I can tell you I don’t like it one bit.

I am so excited for this 3 day weekend.  I actually have a lot of activities planned so it should be fun.

I have had “Melanie” (Alix Perez) stuck in my brain for the past 3 days.  It has a really pretty melody so I guess it’s not a bad track to have playing on repeat in your head.

Have a nice holiday weekend if you’re on this side of the pond.

Tunes:
Ill Logic & Raf – Darkness At Noon LP
I listened to these tracks and even though a lot of people aren’t liking it too much, I dig it.  I think the tracks are pretty solid.  Why don’t they have a myspace?  Why is this album so badly promoted? *shrugs*

Today’s Oldie:
Shy FX – Murderation – Ebony Records 2004
I love tracks like this. They just kinda get the crowd going. Nice rollers.

New Offshore podcast.

Guess Who?

Kiki1 Comment

Yes I’m here.  I was so swamped at work yesterday I couldn’t even write in my blog and you know how that messes with my OCD mind.  Argggh.  My boss has a lot of cases up this month so I’m surprisingly busy.  It doesn’t bother me cuz I don’t mind the work but it definitely is a switch up cuz I usually have a pretty leisurely day balancing my work and playing online.  😉

Tunes:
B-complex – Raindrops (track is in player)
I just love B-complex tunes.

The Square & Eros – You’re Something Special (track is in both players)
Heard this on Overfiend’s show.  I’m quite a fan of The Square.  Definitely digging the vibe.

Today’s Oldie:
Alix Perez & Specific – Love Bug – Horizons Music 2006
Definitely not that old but I was thinking about Jodeci this morning for some unknown reason and it made me think of this tune since the sample is in it.  God I used to love Jodeci!  R&B baby making music at its best!  LOL.  Anyways, I like Alix Perez and Specific together.

Battling Kiki

Kiki1 Comment

I’m tired as fuck. I had a really fun weekend but I’m totally paying the price now. Too much liquor and too much party but tons and tons of fun. I tried to recuperate all day sunday but it obviously didn’t work cuz I still feel groggy and crappy today.

These girls tried to battle me and Shannon at Rodan. Hmmm. You heard correctly. It was all really strange and hilarious. You can guarantee that the looks on our faces were priceless as we were trying to figure out what the hell was going on while they did all these really horrid dance moves in front of us. Everytime I think of the word “battle” it reminds me of that Wookie track. Dope. I love the Remix by MJ Cole too.

It’s funny that I wrote a post about how I don’t wild out and then I go and stay out til 5:40 a.m. last night.

I’m tired. I’m such a geriatric.

It’s no secret that I’m totally jockin Scenic & Advisory these days. LOL. Right now my fave of theirs is called Nothing Is Forever but sorry I don’t have a sample, I’ve just been hearing it on Bassdrive. Don’t Tell Me is dope too though. These guys’ music is totally the pretty dnb that I love. Check out the other stuff in their player.
