As with me actually getting a myspace page, this post is probably a bit late seeing as the songs have been on my page for at least a month, but I thought I ought to finally write something about the songs on my page;
The first and third tracks are remixes of a track called 'Keep On' by the Bone Idols featuring Ty and Aphletik that I did for London label Above the Clouds. The original version was something of a summer classic in 2004 and these remixes were pencilled as the follow up B-side to another track Bone Idols were doing with J Live. The J Live track never came out and so the remixes never got used . It seemed a shame for them to go to waste so here they are on my page. I bumped into Ty last weekend at Blacktronica and, being the nice guy that he is, he said he was happy for the tracks to be out there so when the full website goes up, they'll be available to download. Watch this space.
If you've seen my photos then you know that I have a soft spot for adidas shelltoes. It seemed like a good idea (an idea which turned into an obsession) to put together a little skit using all the references to them that I could find in my records. Once I'd finished it, I had a crack at selling it to Adidas but they were funny about sample clearance ... so here it is (track 2 that is).
The fourth track is one of the skits from my part produced / part compilation LP 'Lyric Superbrand' which was released on UK label Different Drummer in 2001. Some of the material sounds a little dated now but it was pretty true to the sound of the time. The album received a lot of really good press worldwide, got radio play on BBC Radio 1 and received national airplay on other stations as far afield as Poland and Australia.
