10oo10k September Monthly Mix (plus a live feed!)

10 tracks hand-picked from the 10,000 September releases
A mixed bag this month ranging from some darker techno, right through to something a little disco (almost). Check out Last Night by Beni, Prince Terrence, something about it just grabbed me, so it had to go into the mix, albeit a little different to the rest of the tracks.

And finally, I have got around to doing my very first live Facebook feed. These will be coming out monthly from now on, and will replace the Pottz Panned videos I used to put out before. The concept, though, is the same, to be honing my live set by putting out videos in real ‘LIVE’ settings. You don’t get too much more real than posting live to Facebook.

Pottz Panned to go 100% Live…now it gets real!

Yes I know, the 15th of the month has come and gone and there has been no Pottz Panned – the monthly live video of one of my tracks.

Well, I have a very valid excuse reason this month.  I have decided that from now on my monthly videos will be streamed live on Facebook Live Video. Sure you will lose the high quality 3 camera edits that you have grown used to, and the various other  video gimmickry I’ve deployed before, but it will be 100% LIVE.

It was always my intention with these monthly videos to have a forum for ongoing improvement of my live material, with the intention to get some live gigs.  Well, it’s time to really put it out there.

I’m just waiting for the delivery of a little piece of hardware that will ensure that the sound quality is good…and I’ll get July’s post out there (at this stage I’m thinking of posting it live to the  Tech House Australia FB Group…maybe some more international sites thereafter.

Here’s  little tester I did (with sub-par quality…audio gizmo still en route).

Or here on Facebook.

Enjoy.

 

 

Pottz Panned – Edition 2 – More is Law

It’s the 7th of the month and that’s when I get out Pottz Panned – a monthly live video of one of my tracks.  The rules (my rules) are whatever I record in the first take is what I use, no going back for multiple times to try get it perfect.  So, it will be pretty gritty and real (in other words, there will be some mistakes).

This month, for the 2nd edition of Pottz Panned I’ve taken my track ‘More is Law’ from May this year, and given it the live work out.  I hope you enjoy it.  I have also been trialling some new iPad software – Touchable 3– very nice, but taking some getting used to.

For any live performers out there who have any questions about my set-up, please feel free to email me.

And here’s a link to my June music, just in case you missed the 1 July release.
