Music talk
As much as I love and respect hip hop/ soul/ folk/ indie/ hardcore, my heart lies deepest in electronica and downbeat. It was the biggest part of my life where I was most heavily involved in music. I became an absolute geek, started producing and djing quite heavily, worked in a record store, and befriended all the other geeks on music forums haha. “Scratch” would be released and we’d all gossip about that basement Dj Shadow was digging in..
Don’t laugh, it was serious bizness.
Mixes became just as influential in the music scene as the tracks themselves. There were tons released but the ones most devastating left long lasting memories in my mind up until this day. This week, some favourites were revisited..
The Psychonauts - Essential mix
DJ Food and DK- Solid Steel
Coldkrushcuts
Dj Krush- Code 4109
Coldcut- Journeys by DJs
Diplo- aeiou2
The Avalanches- Breezeblock mix
Nightmares on wax- DJ Kicks
K&D - Dj kicks
Kid Loco- Dj Kicks
All of a sudden my house became geek fucking central again.
