  • The return of 4teenth…

    More Cambridge sample based business going on here, and after a few years of silence, it seems that the cogs are turning once more, with tracks being uploaded to soundcloud, and a website back up and running…

    Lots of you will already know this track, included on the ‘There Might Never Be an Album’ super long EP from 2007, which was snapped up for this section on a recent skate DVD which ended up being distributed worldwide on the front of Sidewalk magazine..

  • Chairman Maf – Battles..

    Currently smashing it left right and centre, Chairman Maf is here to restore faith in those of you who thought that hiphop had morphed into an endless euro synth cheese ‘pop your auto tuned vocals over this’ nightmare.

    Always bang on with the amazing samples and great production, saw this posted up today and had to share it…

  • PARTY LIKE IT’S 1985!

    Howdy folks!

    Hope you all had a good xmas, and are gradually digesting the mountain of turkey, sprouts and Quality Street you ingested over the past week… Just a quick reminder about the New Years Eve bonanza that is happening at The Fountain Inn on Regent Street tomorrow night:

    The minds behind the disco steamroller that is QVC team up with the guys behind your new favourite night, Cuff ’em and Stuff ’em, to bring you a night of house, disco, bassline funk and electro, but more importantly -FUN!

  • Datassette – Santa Claus taking Paul McCartney up the wrong ‘un…

    Sketchy Santa...
    Come sit on my Knee….

    IT’S CHRIIIIIIISTMAAAAAAS!

    Well, nearly… Here’s Datassette’s frankly mental take on the Paul McCartney xmas classic.. I remember playing this upstairs at Warning and seeing the ‘What the fuck? Nahhh….NAAAAAHHHH!’ faces of a roomful of krusty trustafarians as they recognised the intro, instantaneously transform into bassface mode when it dropped…

    Check out the Datassette site for plenty more tunes to download…

  • Tribute to James Brown

    [tube]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sUYv9FRD1Fo[/tube]

    An absolute legend, a large gap has been left where he once was.

    This is my tribute to the Godfather of Soul.
