Shiny Colours Distract Me
Minor site update and some sneaky features last night. The main visual change was the addition of some new colourful Aurora Borealis inspired glows peeking out from behind the content panel just to add a bit of colour to my drab winter night, and I've sneaked in some minor tweaks here and there to fix it up a bit.
Also I've remembered that there is a fully functioning URL based search function that I've not got round to creating a form for. Simply stick search/searchterm on the root URL and it'll work fine and dandy. Try it out here.
Serge Gainsbourg Vs Royce Da 5'9 Booty by Stefan Goodchild
Been off work sick over last week and so finally get round to doing a proper version of this mashup (ugh!) I used to do live when I was a DJ.
2 Serge Gainsbourg tracks (Initial BB and Bonnie & Clyde), a Royce Da 5"9 Vocal from a bit of vinyl I bought a few years back, two little audio surprises at the end and a dollop of boom bap.
Annoyed Kylie has nicked the same B&C loop I've been using for years but hey ho - Life, as they say, sucks.

The Truth About Trouble by Bertrand Russell
The fundamental cause of the trouble is that in the modern world the stupid are cocksure while the intelligent are full of doubt. - Bertrand Russell
Things A Producer...
Nice short checklist from Chris Randall at Analog Industries. This one's my favourite.
"Hey, I think this track needs some percussion." Sigh. Nobody but percussionists can actually play percussion worth a shit. See #3. If you own a studio, and you want to increase your hourly billing, just leave some maracas and a tambo lying about the control room.
