New mix: Mala and classic garage

 

 

This is a mix I’ve wanted to do to for a while – mainly because I wanted to listen to it . Yes, this is the sort of thing OneMan does so well, and has been doing for ages, but I think this is still really worth doing. Mala in particular has always had a really strong garage swing and this really brings it out. All classic tunes obviously – it starts deep and heavy, slowly moves up to the really intense section around Mountain Dread March, and then moves nicely into a load of 4×4 garage.

Enjoy – it’s here: http://www.grievousangel.net/GAMixes/Mala_And_Garage_By_Grievous_Angel.mp3

Dirty Face: A series of 10 10-minute mini-mixes

I did 10 10-minute sound tracks to videos of graffitti artists, for the graf / street art collective Dirty Face. Check out (and buy!) Dirty Face’s fantastic t-shirts here. The videos had an amazing story – Dirty Face organised a 10 day festival at Sheffield’s brilliant Bank Street Arts centre, where they got top graffiti artists in and over 10 days, they would each paint a wall in a day… the same wall, mind, with their work being white-washed over the top! Dirty Face video’ed each day, and did a 10 minute time-lapsed edit for me to work to. These videos and their soundtracks unfortunately haven’t surfaced yet, so I’m putting these little mixes out there, on their own. They’;re really nice, fully-rounded despite being short, yet easily consumed because they don’t hang around long. There’s a range of genres in there and, frankly, theres some lovely moments in there.

Here’s the first one: Day 1 – Matt Sewell:

Tracklisting is:

Lukid: On_and_on

Scuba: Ruby

Lorn: Cherry Moon

Hudson Mohawke: Fuse

 

The tunes here are nicely atmostpheric and melodic but they’ve still got a lot of welly… I’ve put layers of dub fx and filtering on top too…

Check it, you’ll like it 🙂

Pure Rollage mix

001_Pure_Rollage_2012_small

OK. Here’s a mix of fresh, deep dub 130. Basically my tribute to Beneath. This is pure rollage. Obviously the Beneath stuff is the best dub in the world right now but there’s lots of good bits in this mix. I particularly like the blend of City Cycle and Send, and the blend of Waterfalls and the Vibe is so Right. This goes off live. The Ramadanman refix is very special, David played this out quite a bit. No-one’s got that.

Check it, this is a good’un.

Beneath – Lost – unreleased
Beneath – Name Droppin’ – unreleased

Video of me at Electronic Supper Club now up

The wonderful people at Electronic Supper Club have put up the video of me playing there last Wednesday. It’s not a bad set, tunes are great and not too many mistakes in the mixing. Check it out and look at the excellent video of Mella dee and Six Foot Sick, as well as the other DJs (especially Squarehead).

Big up the Black Dog and Shaun Bloodworth for kicking this off, CADS for hosting it and the lovely people at Dangernoise Audio for the massive sound system!

And make sure you get on the invite list – you can only come in if you’re on the list and it’s a really, really nice scene 🙂

Playing live at Electronic Supper Club Wednesday night

ESC

A small dark room full of really cool people, fantastic film projections in the background, and a huge, high quality sound system. Heaven on earth. That’s what Electronic Supper Club is like.

Invite only so mail us if you need to get there and we don’t know you already.

Mista Men and SixFootSick are awesome DJs. I’ll be playing a few garage, grime and funky records and might indulge in some Ableton performance too.

 

 

New Single out now – Torn Apart / Rock Da Bass

New hard UK funky track out now exclusively on Boomkat.

There’ll be a bunch of tunes coming out on my Devotional Dubz label over the next few months. It’ll mostly be UKF, house, 130-ish ragga and a bit of 140. First up is ERZULIE04, Torn Apart b/w Rock Da Bass, two heavy funky tunes.

It’s the follow up to Kleer on Forefront recordings, a heavy acid 130 tune that went over OK, got some airplay from Marcus Nasty – this is an awesome clip: http://www.grievousangel.net/GAMixes/Kleer_by_Grievous_Angel_on_Marcus_Nasty_RInse_FM_28_March_2012.mp3
