No homework to do. No work to catch up on. Who am I? Free time is amazing isn’t it? 😂
Decided to have a quick mix session before I go to my friend April’s birthday dinner. I just played all old High Contrast. That era of dnb was a-one. 🥰
Tag: The Streets
High Contrast
I’m having a High Contrast day. I worked out to his 2003 Essential Mix this morning, and now I can’t get “It’s Too Late” out of my head. It’s one of my fave records that I own.

Busy Busy Kiki
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
One of my favourite Streets songs. Love this remix.

Dance For Me
I went to see Dizzee Rascal yesterday. 1xtra plays that Dance For Me song all the time and I love it. I’ve seen him before and I always really enjoy his shows. He’s a good live performer. I find it really strange that there are so many artists that are actually pretty bad live. It’s almost surprising when you see someone who actually puts on a good show. Other people I always think put on a great live show are The Streets and M.I.A.
EL-P was on the bill last night too. I don’t really listen to a lot of rap but I definitely like this dude’s stuff. I’ve seen him a couple of times before and he’s just an all round good rapper. It was a good show. I had fun.
Remember that Dillinja remix of Basement Jaxx feat Dizzee Rascal – Lucky Star? I really liked that one.
I’m in a dubstep mood today. I actually listen to a lot of dubstep. You know how there are some things that you just do and you don’t really blab about it that much? That’s how it is with me and dubstep. I’m a big fan of the Bass Goes Boom nights. Chef is at the next one. Should be dope.
I’ve been feeling a bit poorly this week and haven’t really been doing any work so I think I’m going to try and be a good employee today.
