Cassette Culture Old

In the summer I bought myself a Hercules console and set about learning how to mix by pressing buttons and hitting stuff. I made my first pre-recorded mixtape a while ago but didn't feel it was good enough to share here. My next effort is a little better but still very amateur! In no way am I proclaiming this to be anything amazing at all - I just thought a few of you might like a listen and if anyone can give me feedback, positive or negative, I would really appreciate it. The mix is a live set I played at a party in Cardiff last Tuesday and I've called it "Daft Monkey" (there's a lot of Daft Punk in there)

I'll be posting some of the tracks over the next week or so - look forward to that!

The Whip were one of my favourite acts at Glastonbury this year. Two of their songs in particular caught my eye (ear?) - Trash and Blackout, which both build slowly to these massive dance-floor crescendos. Like many other bands these days, The Whip have dabbled in a bit of remixing and you can listen to their efforts on their remixes myspace. To be honest I don't think the remixes are all that impressive, although The Editor's track isn't bad. See what you think. You get the impression there's quite a lot more to come from these guys anyway. I'll keep you posted.
