Posthuman - Hilda Family Remixed (MZYKN008CD)

0 comments
 


I mentioned about this CD a few weeks back on the blog. Well seeing as I've just been paid I thought I'd purchase myself a limited edition CD from Myuzyk.






I haven't listened to it yet I must admit as I've just finshed doing the Mega Rave show on SWU Radio and now I'm hungry, haha, but I'll post up a mini review tomorrow.

You can download the Posthuman - Hilda Family EP from Myuzyk and buy the Posthuman - Hilda Family Remixed Limited Edition CD, be quick though as there selling out fast.

A relaxed chilled show on Brap.fm this week. No rapid drops, loops or filtering fun. Just last minute vinyl mixing due to it being Vinyl Records Day and the fact my decks are a bit rusty.

Discovered I owned the Cocoon Compilation D boxset though, which was a pleasant surprise. Dropped a selection from that release plus sneaked in a ambient Jeff Mills track to finish off the show. Hurrah

Special show lined up this evening to celebrate Vinyl Records Day. Instead of the usual loopy Ableton fun I'll be dusting off my vinyl and giving it a whirl.

So expect bad mixing and scratchy records as I trawl through some choice cuts from my vast collection.

Join me on 6-8pm on Brap.fm tonight and pop in the chat room if your locked in to say hello.

As this Fridays rave will be of immense proportions we've decided to battle it out in true style. Each DJ has 30 mins at the start of the night to flex there muscles and showcase there skills and then for the last couple of hours its going to be a 2 tune back 2 back mashup of mayhem :-D

At the start of the night we will flip a coin to decide who goes first Beatz and Bobz or JamTheChannel then run it like this...

8.30/9.00 - slot 1
9.00/9.30 - slot 2
9.30/10.00 - slot 3
10.00/10.30 - slot 4
10.30/11.00 - slot 5
11.00/11.30 - slot 6
11.30-2.00 - back to back rave - in the same order as played before.. 2 tunes each of pure rave

So get there early, as its free before 10 and cheer or boo your favorite night :-D

Bring it on Jammers :kiss:

More gig news for this week... me and Lex are playing at this years Exe Fest down in Exmouth this Sunday.


Time and Place
Date: Sunday, August 10, 2008
Time: 12:00pm - 9:00pm
Location: Exmouth Rugby Club
Street: Imperial Road
City/Town: Exmouth, United Kingdom

* EXEFEST TICKETS AVAILABLE FROM ONIONHEART AND REFORM RECORDS - ADULT £5, CHILD £3 *
* LIMITED TICKET SUPPLY! *

* Finally we have a full-scale shindig taking place right here in Exmouth town. A full day of live acts, DJs, graffiti and dance, with food and a bar to keep everyone going.

* Indie, Reggae, Breakbeat, Hip Hop, Drum and Bass, Funk, Funky House, Latin, Acoustic, Beatboxing and much more, from some of the best DJs and live acts the South West has to offer.

* Confirmed acts include:

Ben & Lex (DJ set) - Breakbeat/Electro

Dib Dub Sound System (Live) – Reggae/Dub Step/Roots

The Terrible Strangers (Live) - Indie/Trip Hop/Covers

Mix Masta Mullet (DJ Set) - Hip Hop/Party/Scratch

DJ Hazardous (DJ Set) - Hip Hop/Funk/Scratch

Pete Sach (Live) – Experimental/Electronic/Vocal

The Akibas (Live) - Rock/Pop/Country

+ A host with the most!


* The vibe of the music will progress and change through the day. We'll start the day off quite chilled with acoustic stuff before warming it up with the Hip Hop, Indie and Funk etc, ending with a couple of hours of Drum and Bass, Breakbeat and Electro from the DJs. The set list will be available nearer the time of the event so people know when to turn up to catch their favourites. Though we'd like to think most Exmouthians are open minded enough to make a day of it and give all the music a shot, as it's all good!


* There will be a 96ftx8ft graffiti wall. Throughout the day some of the countries finest graffiti artists will be working on filling the wall with spectacular pieces and murals for everyone to admire. They will also be selling totally original canvases and t-shirts, so if you fancy grabbing a fresh garm or piece of art, it'll be there for you!

* To tie in with the urban vibe that many of our acts are bringing to the festival, we'll have some of Exeter Uni's Breakdance crew! They'll be flexing their moves on stage while the DJs play.

* Stalls

* Good food for those who get hungry and want to try something new.

* A bar for everyone who wants to sink a few cold drinks.

* The setup will look a little something like this (not to scale) - http://i243.photobucket.com/albums/ff154/mixmastamullet/Setup-1.jpg


* IMPORTANT!!! –
The Rugby Club has a 500 capacity. This means NO more than 500 are aloud in the event at one time. To avoid disappointment buy a ticket from OnionHeart or arrive fairly early in the day, or you may be refused entry. You have been warned!

Posthuman - Hilda Family Remixed (MZYKN008CD)

0 comments
 


Top new release from the Myuzyk label that I highly recommend you all go out and buy :)

Posthuman - Hilda Family Remixed (MZYKN008CD)

The collection starts off with a sophisticated remix from Dave Graham that captures cinemtatic aspects of Posthuman’s music, with odd timings and nuances that give it a live feel.

James Fox seems to immerse his production in whatever vibe he is feeling that day and here captures a sound akin to some of Kode 9's outings, turning Asha Grew Wings into a dubbed out stepper.

Josh from Posthuman in his house guise Walter Becomes Wendy remixed Fortune Favours The Foolish into a infectious house groove aimed at the dancefloor. With support from Mary Anne Hobbs is new name on the block Duke Spook, showing another side to his music with his fathoms deep techno styling of The Disease.

Ambient meister LJ Kruzer opted for the beatless route and paints a sonically rich picture in his remix of Asha Grew Wings. Fans of the Border Community sound might enjoy Asha Grew Wings remixed by The Village Orchestra, awash with popping beats, hazy distortion and shoegazing moments.

The man responsible for California’s Muti Music is Dave Bryuns aka Dov and he delivers a dose of stomping, twitching, breaks tinged 4/4 in his remix of Asha Fallen.

Edinburgh's the wee djs changes tact from the gnarly electro output and goes for a switched up electronic hip hop approach in the Fortune Favours The Foolish remix whilst still applying scary amounts of bass.

From Birmingham’s Kracktronik label comes circuit bending and rave breaks in sol_dat's supercharged remix of the popular Asha Grew Wings.

If you liked the Richie Hawtin approach during darker patches of the 90s there’s a treat in store in the form of Kelp's collosal remix of The Disease, squelchy filtering and thousand yard stare bass combines at 140bpm in a clattering techno workout.

London based DJ and label boss Shelley Parker steps up with her debut as a producer, pinpointing a love of all things dark, deep and bassy in a dubby techno remix of The Disease.

Jersey City's wunderkind J Hazen has taken a divertion into top shelf electronica, reworking Lust Of Dust with a focus on bleeps, subtle glitches and a switch into drum & bass for good measure.

Just before the end credits roll there is the Digitonal Breaks Down remix of Asha Grew Wings, in which the recognisible sound of Digitonal gets acid dipped and gives us another chapter in the Asha story.

To wrap things up we have revered Expanding Record's head honcho Benge supplying yet more magic of the ambient kind in his mesmerizing remix of Asha Fallen.

Tracklist with preview clips

What a show.. I love Autechre so much. Proper moody soundscapes to go with the rain that was hammering Exeter while I was on the radio. Sit back... close your eyes... and turn it up. Enjoy
