EASY, It’s been a while since I put out a mix and the sunshine over the last couple of weeks has really inspired me, so here’s my summer mix! I have been playing a few of these of these tunes for a while and there some other which I am just particularly feeling right now, kick back and enjoy! The last one being a personal favourite, and classic!!!!! Tracklist is below…
PEACE&OUZO
TRACKLIST

Just a snippet of some type design I have been working on for a ver exciting producer called Throwing Snow. Here is a couple of tunes for you to put a sound to a name, enjoy!
EASY! Another little gem sent to me by my friend Mr Le Fou, these videos show some really nicely executed prejetion work. I posted a video in August last year (http://www.not-ready.co.uk/blog/?p=1365) on a similar tip but these videos work on a smaller, more usable scale. Check them out…
We are back and hitting Gramaphone for the first time in 2010. Check it out:
GET SOME
17TH APRIL 2010 2100 – 0330
THE GRAMAPHONE 60-62 COMMERCIAL ST LONDON, E1 6LT
MOSCA DANCING ROBOT MUSIC ELIJAH & SKILLIAM DARK ARX PRINCESS OF WALES SSG WHISKEY + OUZO
On the 17th April, Get Some returns home to the The Gramaphone with a card stacked full of talent.
Tipped by Fact Magazine as one of their producers to watch for 2010, Mosca (www.myspace.com/deejaymosca) is leaving no stone unturned this year. When not working on Bruk Magazine (www.brukmagazine.wordpress.com) with Unknown Soulja, or promoting their club night U Dun Know, he’s busy in the lab cooking up beats. Super fresh production, genre smashing club music. Square One is out now on Night Slugs.
With remixes under their belts for Hot Chip and Gorillaz, a pioneering 3D rave night, a radio show and a record label, Dancing Robot (http://www.dancingrobotmusic.co.uk) look set to stop at nothing but world domination. Their live shows are pure hype and the lads’ sets at packed out Coronet and Koko are sights to behold.
Badboy Rinse FM DJ’s Elijah and Skilliam have been rocking out shows across Europe with the toughest grime and dubstep sets. It can’t be overstated how much they do for the scene with their Butterz blog (http://verybutterz.blogspot.com/) pushing the sound far and wide. And with a record label on the way, the levels continues to be kept high. Dubplate pressure not to be missed.
As per, resident Get Some selectors will keep you niced up all night with the right blend of old and new. Stick it in your diary.
5 POUND ALL NIGHT

When I saw this I went nuts, probably not the most practical of investments but a beautiful piece of design and a great idea none the less. These guys have a whole array of amazing musical kit including a portable synth to die for, well worth checking out. Find out more here: http://www.teenageengineering.com/.
I decided a while ago that I wanted to change the direction of this blog a little and am now going to start focusing on my work as a Graphic Designer, design, self initiated briefs, pictures and photography I like and pretty much any kind of music or whatever I like, I am basically going to make it more personal.
So here is something I did last night, the new OUZO* mix tape cover. I was trying to think of way of doing something more interesting with the covers this time around, after developing a style for GET SOME that I am really happy with. I kept to the same formula in terms of the way I used the image but creating two versions, one for the mix (white is predominant colour) and one for press and promo (image is dominant). Have a look, hope you like!
It’s kinda like an advent calender, and this is the third day of GET SOME! Today we are proud to bring you an exclusive mini mix by DJ Greena which you can listen to and download it here: GET SOME! Check it out and enjoy!!!!! Friday is looking BIG, see you there.
PEACE

So, if you don’t already know, I am lovin’ Joy’s work right now and have been for at least 6 months. Whatever this guy touches is GOLD! I caught up with him at Trouble Vision (good rave!) and heard this on the night. One of my heroes of electronic music, Four Tet, who also recently collaborated with Burial (here), has now teamed up with Joy and let him loose on his new single: Love Cry. Have a listen and see what you think, in my opinion it is another exmple of why this young buck is gonna be flying the flag for the UK for a very long time. Long may it continue.
