Peter Pan...

and Robbo (by Panik)

Peter ATG and Robbo WRH WD PFB KOA KAOS inc UA from LDNGraffiti on Vimeo.


keeping on the with the graf theme this week, sending all best wishes to Robbo who unfortunately suffered an accident before the opening of his new show and is now recovering in hospital.

On the subject of graffiti artists doing shows, its seeming like Graf has gotten to a point now similar to where it was at late 70's into the 80's.

Every writer worth his salt and many who aren't seem to be doing exhibitions of work, be it original art or reproductions of graffiti, a mixture of both, graphic design, photography or all of the above.

This seems to be the way the movement is going, shifting from an underground artform/way of life to a hobby or career.

Neither is necessarily better or worse imo - what matters is the end product, people like Panik and the ATG crew are still doing both whilst turning a crew of friends into an empire of music, art and marketing - and you know what, good luck to em!

Moombahton Pt. 2

Have a mix here from Liverpool's finest and most eclectic DJ. Furness.

No doubt that this guy would be onto this sound early, and it seems he was!!

Here's a mix which he put together in January and its a kaleidoscopic tribute to both slow house and tropical, reggaeton sounds all mashed together in one neat, naughty, steppy little package!

ENJOY

Moombahton...

Munchi - Gracias by Munchi

i really like!

this track especially, featured at the end of this mix

DAVE NADA - 108 & HEARTBREAK by davenada

and here in full

Munchi - Hope by Munchi

so yeh, plenty to listen to here!

i actually like the vibe and roll of these tunes, very much an end of the night lights off moody, melancholy but with just enough of an uplift to give variety and dimension to the tunes (or what i've heard so far anyway!)

i will do some searching and update when i find more, dont know how this hasn't spread over here fully yet, has a very accessible sound i think, like a polished up and slightly less quirky, downbeat Kwaito

Saarim's Faux Pas...

First mix by Saarim Khokhar

We've all been there before (if you mix...), the highs, the lows, the mids...

Recording a mix is always stressful, I for one have broken knuckles punching walls when something in my mix doesn't go right and its standard procedure that everytime I record a mix I'm at mixing at least one level below what I'm capable of.

My good friend Saarim has been getting to grips with Ableton, samplers, new tracks and mixing techniques and he's come out with this little mix at the end of it... and its quite good!

He's been banging on to me about doing one for ages and he's got off his arse and done it now so I'm pleased for him.

Have a listen, the track selection is excellent which is the most important thing to me on a mix and i've got no idea how he actually did it using his MPD but either way I think its quite sick!

Any feedback would be great that i'll pass onto him, have a listen to his tracks aswell (if he still has them up), teaching yourself production is difficult I'm sure, and I know there's a few of you who'll read this blog post and be able to give him some really useful pro-tips!

Peach.

Smash of Kahn...

Margeaux (clip) by • Kahn •

after the Punch Drunk EP, this is one of his next batch of tunes, really nice drums, subtle pads, ehtereal and floaty with summery splashes

blood sugar (clip) by • Kahn •

and another, a slower sounding track, carried by a *cringe* haunting vocal sample which sounds like it was perhaps borrowed from a Thom Yorke tune??

either way i enjoy his tunes

here's a mix from Dark Sky's Ministry of Sound radio show...

Kahn guest mix for Dark Sky on Ministry of Sound radio, broadcast on 27/3/2011 by • Kahn •

Peace.
