Starting the new year…high!
Read the note →: Starting the new year…high!Starting 2016 on a high, 40,000 feet high to be exact. No flash NYE party for me, just took off from LAX, en route back to Sydney. So, flying high – a sign of things to come in 2016? I certainly plan it to be. Here’s what’s planned for the year: Live Work: the biggest…

10oo10k October Monthly Mix
Read the note →: 10oo10k October Monthly Mix10 tracks hand-picked from the 10,000 Beatport October releases …only it isn’t. A bit of a cheat this month – dastardly invasive work commitments have meant that my music time has been eroded and I have not been able to trawl through the BeatPort bins to give you the ‘best of’… for the month. But,…

Pottz Panned – Edition 6 – Sweet Time
Read the note →: Pottz Panned – Edition 6 – Sweet Time7th of the month again, time for Pottz Panned. Something a little different this month. This track was created completely by doing a live jammed composition straight into Ableton Live (my live music app). This was actually the combination of 2 projects, the first was from Project Godard – the ‘find your distinct musical voice’ project…

Read the note →: untitled post 175
September has been a busy month. There’s the usual selection of new music to listen to, but this month, there’re a few differences. I wrote a new track for the Strawberry Fields Festival and CDR project competition. A great compo that required using at least one of a bunch of samples provided and maintaining the…

10oo10k August Monthly Mix
Read the note →: 10oo10k August Monthly Mix10 tracks hand-picked from the 10,000 Beatport August releases 15th of the month, so it’s time for a little techno mix. 10 of the best from the August Beatport releases. A few tougher tracks this month, but Tor by Extremely Loud is my pick for the month, with its understated squelchy drive. Jolgorio by Jaceo brings something…
