where am I?

I'm going to start this with an apology for neglecting this blog for a few months; there is no excuse really, but i'm going to try and justify it due to a lack of time. If i am ever to give-one-tip in the time that i am making music its, do not try to rebuild your car at the same time. I have literally spent every minute of spare time on the car, which although satisfying as it is, can be quite tedious AND time consuming. But enough of that, lets get down to the nitty gritty.

Lets get down to the nitty gritty

In the last few months i have become increasingly interested in film and graphics with music. Not in the sense of making music videos with an unnecessary amount of clips and fast moving images, more in the direction of tranferring emotion more effectively. What i'm talking about, really, is the film telling a story; even if its only with a flash of sense. I will be going more in depth with this in the coming months (yes i know i said this last time), but this time i wont have too much of a car left to build.



Whilst most of my free time has been soaked up by other things, i have had some time to appreciate amount of new music cropping up on the Soundcloud pages/groups and in the South East. I have been amazed by the passion for new music in this area, particularly concerning drum and bass and dubstep. If you're reading this its well worth taking some time to have a look into the community of producers and MCs in the South East especially Kent. (links below)

On a final note i would like to mention Mike Skinnner. As most of my friends will know i am an avid fan of Mike, and i think his work is truly amazing. He has recently revived "The Beats" label, with the first release being Elro's BAD NEWS. He has also started a new project with Rob Harvey named "The D.O.T" but i will let you discover that one yourselves as i think its the best way. I am really looking forward to seeing what Mike will have in store for us for the future, and will no doubt be rambling on about how good it is in these blogs.

And on one final note just in case you haven't heard this yet heres my latest!
