New Track - The Girlfriend

Windcheater - The Girlfriend by Windcheater

Download is switched on for now if anyone wants a copy :)

Beautiful Day

It really was. A classic English summer's day. Blue skys, a few puffy white clouds and brilliant sunshine without being too hot.

And I spent the whole day indoors.

I've finally got round to transferring some of my old vinyl onto the laptop, thanks Paul.

It's taking a while but is lots of fun and very なつかしい！

It could go all a bit rave the next time I DJ.

Latest track - Cover Feat. WaynB

Wrapped this up a little while ago, my latest track features the vocal talents of WaynB and is called COVER.

I'm actually working on another version of this as a lot of what we recorded didn't actually make it into the final mix, which I thought was a shame.

Anyway, you can check out the track on my MySpace player or in better quality over on my Soundcloud page. You can download that version too, for now anyway ;)

Am currently visiting friends and family back in the UK, cream tea-tastic, burp. Got two new tracks on the go and am searching for new stuff to play out and about in Hiroshima town. Back on the 20th August and will be DJing at Cover that very night, jetlag permitting ;)

First rave!

Well not quite, but the first time I've Djed at a free open air event.

This Saturday night at some point....check the site for details

Will be alongside, regular Mugen night 'Hug a Speaker' stalwarts, me and Paul representing the 3K corner.

Certainly doesn't look the most stunning beach in the world, but, I'm sure it will be fun.

Shiny New Site

If you hop on over to the WC Homepage, you'll see it's had a face lift. All courtesy of my friend Saru110.

After checking out my site do have a look at his and check out some of his superb designs. They really are very good.

Unless you've got an iPhone that is. Perhaps they'll bring out an app that'll allow it one day....

annnnnnnd, here's the trailer for the movie

GOGO CARAT and Hug A Speaker : Photos and Video

Last week's club circuit event was a lorra lorra fun. Unfortunately for me I peaked a bit too early and went home at the embarrasingly early 5.30ish. For shame.

Anyway, you can check out some photos of the various events RIGHT HERE.

Last Sunday was also the monthly Hug A Speaker at Mugen, but with a twist this month as it was broadcasted over the net on UStream as part of Cracktown FM's schedule.

You can still watch/listen to the whole thing RIGHT HERE. I start at around 1hour 26minuntes if you are interested.

GOGO CARAT Timetable

This Saturdays GOGO CARAT multi-club event's timetable is up. Visit the website here or have a look at the picture, right there <<<

Should be a great night. Loads of stuff going on, and if something doesn't inspire you....move on elsewhere.

3K are on at 11PM until 12.30am on Mugen's 3rd floor.

On a sidenote, I was pleased and completely unsurprised to see my favourite bar COVER has the latest running schedule with the final DJ's time put as 7.00 - .....

You could probably pop in for some Sunday lunch.

3K@ GOGO CARAT 2010 3.20

Myself and Paul have been lucky enough to be invited to DJ at Mugen at this year's GOGO CARAT event in Hiroshima. You can read all about it in English on GetHiroshima.

We're on the same bill as Rob Smith (RSD, Smith and Mighty, More Rockers), Juzu AKA Moochy and 1945 AKA Kuranaka, on the 3rd floor at Mugen.

I couldn't go to this last year so am really looking forward to it. Check out the flickr images from last year : PART 1 PART 2

I'll let you know more details as soon as I know any more.

Read about it in 日本語　here.

Please Give has a release date now

Please Give, the movie which will feature my track Apathetic seems to have finally got a release date of April 23rd and is, according to this article, number 85 in the top 100 (yes, 100) anticipated movies of 2010 :snigger:

Anyway, nice to see it isn't just a figment of my imagination, and, now there are some pics up on it's imdb page I was pleased to see I do actually know some of the actors who are in it.

The track Apapthetic is available from all good record stores.

As long as those records stores are named Beatpick or Dangerous Drums Records @ Beatport or Juno download .

Happy New Year!

It's always a let down isn't it?

My first New Year's Eve in town in Japan and I had a ball.

Really didn't know how it was going to pan out but Edge was great, popped into the Shack, back to Edge and then over to my second home, Cover.

It didn't disappoint :)

Hope everyone has a fantastic 2010. I'm cautiously optimistic...

Anyway, here's that mix I hinted at in the previous post. You can download it or stream it, the decision is yours.

Enjoy, and 明けましておめでとうございます！！

Phestive Phun

As the year draws to a close and as the day work winds down nicely I've got one last busy weekend with my WC hat on on the cards.

First up is Friday night and the monthly FROIDE event at Cover. Always good fun, I ALWAYS have work the next day. But not this weekend :) Hosted by the brilliant Rinn, and also featuring fellow 3K-er Little Foreigner (or whatever his DJ moniker is at the moment) I intend to let my hair down on a Friday for a change. There's no charge ofcourse.

Then on Sunday it's that other monthly event 'Hug a Speaker', this time over at Mugen. It's a special Bounenkai edition this week and there's even a guest DJ, so could well be a bit lively. Starts at 10pm, not that anyone gets there at that time.

Hopefully see some of you out and about.

Up on Juno Download

My Dangerous Drums EP is up on Juno Download too and it seems they have the better offer if you want all 7 tracks ;)

Get it Here.

DDD release now available on Beatport

New Mix - Berlin>Hiroshima>Aug2009

This August was rounded off VERY nicely with the Mugen 3rd anniversary party. Bloody hell it was loud. In a good way. Brilliant sound from the guest sound systems I got a bit of a shock when I walked in to find the 2nd floor rammed. Bit nervous but it went really well and I had a blast.

September tomorrow and to celebrate this summers DJing activities here's a mix of some of my favourite tracks from this year. No fancy tricks, just the tunes. Hope you enjoy. Back to producing now. Hopefully.

AUG2009>BERLIN>HIROSHIMA>MIX
