It's been a while since i last wrote anything on my blog but seeing as i overslept and missed Uni (again!) I have decided to be productive.
The past couple of weeks have been fairly momentous musically. Shogun Audio touched down in Southampton for the first time in the form of Friction, D Bridge and The Prototypes a couple of weeks ago. This was a wonderful treat for the So'ton Drum and Bass scene. I'm not going to lie i was pretty messy that night which means i cannot really comment much on specific song moments but it was a Shogun night, says it all really...
Last Friday i travelled to Reading alongside And.i.shoot and LJA productions for Metalheadz at Sub89. The boys did a bit of filming for Jungle Drummer and DJ Vapour whilst i had a brock out with my good friend Laurel. Drummer and Vapour literally tore the place apart. Before that night i had only seen Drummer on Youtube so actually witnessing him live was something special indeed. I cannot fathom how hard it must be to drum at that tempo for an hour! He was even drumming one handed in some parts. I was also excited about seeing Metalheadz boss Goldie for the first time too! It was pretty cool being backstage so i could see his djing (and epic amount of gold jewelry) at a closer angle.
A personal highlight for me that night had to be Commix. Guy Brewers minimal beauts were the perfect way to round off the night and i even had a little chat with him after his set. I'm Looking forward to interviewing Commix at the next release event alongside SpectraSoul in Southampton on the 18th February.
Talking of interviews I'm going to round off nicely with the video from the last Release night back in January. Critical Sound Southampton was a brilliant night and Release finally got the recognition it deserves with a packed venue. Although Release is strictly for the "heads" it was nice to see more people appreciating the deeper styles of Drum and Bass. S.P.Y was an absolute pleasure to interview and a generally nice bloke too! Check out the video by LJA productions...
