New Mix - Berlin>Hiroshima>Aug2009

This August was rounded off VERY nicely with the Mugen 3rd anniversary party. Bloody hell it was loud. In a good way. Brilliant sound from the guest sound systems I got a bit of a shock when I walked in to find the 2nd floor rammed. Bit nervous but it went really well and I had a blast.

September tomorrow and to celebrate this summers DJing activities here's a mix of some of my favourite tracks from this year. No fancy tricks, just the tunes. Hope you enjoy. Back to producing now. Hopefully.

Mugen 3rd Anniversary Party

....and after claiming I was going to get back to being a producer after just DJing the last 2-3 months....I'm DJing this Saturday at the Mugen 3rd Anniversary party. Representing the Hug a Speaker corner I'll be on at 3.30am in the downstairs bit (2F)

If you are out and about pop in, it's free if you're a lady (2000Yen if not).

Should be a good night though.

Europe 2009

I've been on holiday. Quite a long one. A month infact and it was a lorra lorra fun.

First off did the UK thing. No surprises there really although after 8 years away the rain/sun/rain/sun/rain/sun all in one day weather was bizarre.

Next up was Spain. First time in six years, it was great to catch up with family and be in Galicia again. My waistline was/is groaning under the diest of cheese, jamon, chorizo and Estrella Galicia. Still, I can't complain.

Lastly and by no means leastly I headed for Berlin, Germany with my windcheater hat on to do a bit of DJing and hook up with friends and label owners Corin and Vela. It was my first time in Germany and if you haven't been I highly recommend Berlin to anyone. Maybe cos it was August and people were away had something to do with the chilled out nature of the place, I don't know but it was all just so, relaxed. Even the cars seemed to be saying; It's fine, I don't have to be anywhere in a hurry, wander out into the street when you feel like it..

Throw in some fascinating history too and you've got one great city. Gigs went well, beer was drank, more old friends met and finally I limped back to Hiroshima.

So back to normal. Time to get producing again after a couple of months of just DJing, although having said that, hopefully see some of you out and about when I am behind the decks in town.
