I JUST COPPED THIS 1

I SHOULD TELL YA MOMMA ON YOU!



You might already have heard the glory story about the oh so gifted man called Red from the sunny streets of Cali. This man is a sick beatboxe/singer. I first heard about him on Jeff 'Chairman' Mao's blog quite a while ago when some raw footage of Red doing his thing outside the HVW8 Gallery started to float around the net..Fast FWD the story & a couple of months later he's got his siiiiiickkkkk tune released with a lil help from HVW8 & Stones Thow Records!! I'm so happy for Red & all of his worldwide fans that the tunes finally out in the record shops available for a few squids & is now bumpin in my crispyville flat day n night! I advice all you folks out there to cop it while its still out there. It's a limited one so hurry up, lace your shoes n run to the stooo!

Oh n theres a pretty sick Dam-Funk rmx on the B-side! Sweet stuff!!

MAIDA MADNESS



Last saturday 15/8 I spent the whole day at BBC's Maida Vale studio 4 recording some sounds for BBC 1 with Floating Points (Eglo Records) and his 10 piece band. We recorded three tunes and I must say it sounded BIG! Amazing to be surrounded by so many great musicians & soundengineers in such a legendary building. It was a great atmosphere in the place & I think the recording catched that vibe pretty well. Im really looking forward to the day when its out there for the worlds ear to hear & hopefully that will be in the near future! I'll be updating all of you out there as soon as I know more! There's some photos I'll be uploading in a bit. Unfortunately we didn't film it but at least the sounds are captured.

This Maida Vale session was actually only the second time for our whole band to get together to perform. We did our first live show only a couple of months ago at The Roundhouse in Camden. There's some raw footage floating around on Youtube in case you all wanna have a look/listen to hear a sample of Floating Points compositions, my lyrics & vocals plus the magnificent band. Hopefully you'll feel it...
