Waiting For Kiki

I’m going to Mexico next week for my best friend’s wedding.  I feel like all I’m doing these days is just waiting to leave.  The weather is whatever, work is whatever, going out is whatever.  I’m not in a bad mood about it or anything, I just want to lie on a beach and drink the beautiful cocktails that I love to daydream about and soak up the sun as soon as possible.  7 days and counting.  Holla.

Tunes:
Dub Tao – Upwise (track is in player)
I’m not very familiar with these guys but I do like this track and I like the other stuff in their player too.

Jetset Kiki

flight-of-the-conchords1

I don’t mind the cold as much when there’s good tv to watch.  Flight of The Conchords season 2 just started and Bret, Jemaine and Murray are back to their old tricks.  Murray is definitely my favourite.  This show is hilarious.  Lovesit!

Small Bar was fun last night.  I got tired real quick though.  I feel like I’ve been running around a lot lately.  I keep saying I will just chill at the house but it doesnt actually end up happening.  I’ll work on it.  🙂

Tunes:
Horizons Music PresentsInternal Affairs Vol. 1
Lovin all these tracks on this LP especially Bachelors of Science – The Beautiful Life and also that Naibu remix I wrote about the other day is on there and Mutt’s -Open Wide.  Just ordered it.  Awesome.

Today’s Oldie:
CommixHung UpLiquid V 2004
Not as old of an oldie today, but I was thinking of it this morning so I figured why not?  Lovely track.  I love Commix and this is definitely one of my faves.  A lot of really great liquid came out in 2004.

Libra What What!

It’s my birthday in two weeks. I love this time of year. I’m an autumn baby and love this season to bits. The greyness, the leaves all over the ground. Awesome. I pretty much dream of weather where I can wear just a hoodie year round but instead will settle for the months of September and October.

My bike has a flat tire. Lame.

Robot Redford & M. Sauer – Missing Out – I’ve been hearing this on a lot of mixes. I really like this tune. Track is in the player

Future Sound of Cambridge Vol. 3 – Some nice tracks on there from the likes of Nu:Tone, Logistics and Commix. A couple of tunes that I’ve talked about before are on there. Dunno if I’ll be picking it up… Watch someone’s gonna play one of these tracks out and I’ll hear it on a loud sound system and be annoyed I didn’t buy it. Story of my life. 🙂

It’s the kind of day where you really want to just sit at home and be all cozied up on the couch. Alas I’ll be at my desk.

Toodles.

Today’s oldie: Jonny LMoving Thru Air (Optical Remix) – XL Recordings 1998 I definitely was quite the Optical fan back then. I will fully admit that I had an all out dnb crush on him. I think mentally I was just on this gritty plane where I wanted my music to be raw and disgruntled yet melodic but not loud and noisy and to me Optical’s production was just that. Really great tune.

Another BBS Bookings installment. Woot woot. 😉

Work Work Work

How is it that I’ve been so busy?

Had a really good weekend.

Lots more work to do so I better hurry up and get to the post, right?

Loving that Ant TC1 and Survival mix I posted on friday. Awesome tracks.

Also loving the new Redeyes EP.

Redeyes Presents: The Night Is Over EP (Cruise Ship To The Stars and Sugar with Mutt are my faves)

S.P.Y. Seeing Through The Shadows (I really like this one. It totally has this eerie gritty feel to it.)

Atlantic ConnectionPeace of Mind (I’m so late on this tune but I’d actually never heard it before until this weekend and I love it. I’m mad that I slept on it though. I’ll have to try and get a copy)

Komatic – Beijing (It totally has that Autumn (V Recordings) feel to it. Very Pretty. Track is in the player)

Today’s Oldie: Dj DieAutumn (Commix Remix 2004 Liquid V) I remember when I got that Planet V album. 1999 was a good year for dnb I tell ya. This album was sooooooo good. So many awesome tracks. I really liked the feel of Dj Die’s original but I remember I wasn’t really that in to the bassline. I thought it was ok but didn’t think it was up to the calibre of the essence of the track as a whole. I would just play the intro and then mix out once the bassline kicked. 5 years later, enter Commix… I love remixes that still use the same elements of the original and just enhance it by filling in blanks etc. Commix did such an awesome job with this remix. Really great track all round, both original and remix.

Toodloo

Good Times

I had a really good night last night. As I slowly make a name for myself in the geriatric community, I don’t really need much, just good music and good company. Yesterday I had exactly that. The pic is hopefully how I’m starting to look as I enter my senior citizen stages. Dashing old black lady. Dope.

Submorphics and Stunna came over and we did a little preparty and then headed to Lava. I was surprised by Lava, there were people there actually dancing and they weren’t crazy weirdos, it was just people having fun. Really nice vibe and awesome music. I danced a whole bunch. Both Whoa-B and Stunna really threw down. Stunna played a hot number from good old Will Miles that was just banging. I guess it’s a Talkbox Remix that he did. Don’t really have any other info on but just know it’s a hot one! 😉

Heard some jammers yesterday. No samples. 😦

Dj ClartCity of Men

Paul SG & PouyaStanding Alone (Paul SG is seriously one of my faves right now. I love all the stuff he’s doing!)

Stunna & AmaningLandslide (I had actually heard this tune before and meant to write on it but, surprise surprise, I forgot. LOL. I think Stunna and Amanning just make a really good team. Their collabos are always slamming.)

Yesterday Stunna started his Bassdrive show with Commix’s Hung Up. Man, what a great tune. It made me think of this Commix mix from when they were on Fabio’s show last year. It’s a mini mix of some of the tunes they chose not to put on the album and it’s seriously amazing. Just beautiful drum n bass. There’s no tracklist cuz they didn’t even really say the names of the tracks.
