The remix album of Gonjasufi is out soon. It is called “The Caliph’s Tea Party” and is due out on Warp. Mark Pritchard has done a remix as well as loads of other people including Broadcast. I quite like the Mark Pritchard remix. It reminds me of Ennio Morricone and spaghetti westerns.
I love Coca Cola. So it was great to find this blog that talks about Coca Cola. Check it out if you are interested in Coca Cola and all the merchandising that they do. It’s quite interesting and they blog on a regular basis.

I went to see this on Saturday night. I quite enjoyed it. I never knew that much about him, but I feel I know more. I guess more time could have been spent on the music, but it is an interesting insight into his life. How much of it is true, I don’t know? Check it out if you can.
Kelpe – “Margins EP” taster / snips by Kelpe
Kelpe is back with a new EP for Black Acre records. You can listen to some snippets above. It sounds quite good. It’ll be out in September 2010 on 12″ and digital download. I’m quite looking forward to it.
I’m not recording any of these so tune in to hear what is played. I’ll see if we can do a play list for it, but things get hectic.
I started up my own Ustream channel last week. It was great fun DJing and receiving comments about one of my chairs. I’ll be doing this again quite soon. The first one was a test one to see how to set it up, which incidentally was really easy to do. Anyway, I never recorded it so you can’t listen to it, probably just as well as I didn’t set my volumes properly on it. Anyway, I should be having another bash at this on Tuesday night. So that will be Tuesday the 3rd of August at 8pm BST. I’ll announce it on twitter. I’ll stick the playlist on here as well.
I’ve been enjoying this record a lot this week. It’s a very smooth jazz house thing. The flip side is a dubstep thing that I am not too into. I’m finding that I always like one side of a Deep Medi record and hating the other side. Oh well. That’s the joy of records. You can choose which side to play. I should add that this has been out for ages, but I only bought it this week. Slick.
There is an excellent interview with Duane Pitrev over at the Chrome Ball Incident. Lots of insight into the early days of the Alien Workshop and what he did after he retired from being a professional skateboarder. Check it out if you are interested in that kinda thing.
