Podcast 15, Oddcast, Podcast 3, Supaset 8 Reup and blah!

Hey Everyone,

Happy New Year and all that blah! I have been very busy and…errr…okay, in truth, I have been doing precious little lol. The studio is great, but we are having issues with sound – first the bass was gone, then we put up a bunch of foam panels to keep the bass in the room, and it has…only it has thrown it to the back and corners of the room, which is no good. So we are now waiting the delivery of some diffusion panels which should help control it. I am telling you all this boring stuff to explain / excuse the lack of new music from me. Its very hard to make a tune when you cant work out if the bass is far too much or not enough. Hopefully, the panels will arrive and that will be the end of the problems and I will be able to get on with some music.

In the meantime, I have uploaded the new podcast, and am also addeding Podcast 3 in the mixes section as a 320mp3 without the Hixxy interview or me speaking on it – so its just a mix! Here is the link for that:-



Meanwhile, Podcast 15 features a guest mix from Bexxie, and she also co-hosts with me. Its a combination of new slightly odd sounding studio, alcohol, and two people on one mic. So its a little different to the usual podcasts, and I wonder if you people will like it better or worse than the usual ones? Have a listen and let me know. I think its nice that its co-hosted because its more relaxed and fun, but it also means there is a little more chatter than you are used to from previous podcasts. Anyway, let me know your thoughts in the comments below. If you like it, perhaps I can entice Bexxie to co-host more often!

I am also collaborating with a friend to release irregular “Oddcasts” which will start next month. Thats all I have to say about that, but the open minded will love it. The rest will be confused lol.

What else? Hmmm….well, we had a good Xmas with the usual water problems that I suffer from every year. Dec 25th was the day it decided to rain like a bastard, and also the day our roof decided to leak. Then over the weekend (sunday of course) the heating broke down. Water related disaster gets me every year at this time, so it wasn’t entirely unexpected, but it does get a little tedious. And why does it always have to be a Sunday or a public holiday when these things happen? Tsk. Oh well. Heating is back on, and I spent a pleasant afternoon walking about on the roof and fixing the leak. It hasnt really rained since, mind, so who knows if its fixed lol?

In a completely unrelated subject, people have been complaining because the 320 version of Supaset 8 is not downloading properly. Some also had trouble with the Bangface mix. We looked into it and could find no reason for this – I uploaded those mixes in exactly the same way that I uploaded all the other audio files on the site. I have re-uploaded Supaset 8 and would ask that those who tried and failed to download it to try again and let me know if it works this time? We really need to get to the bottom of the problem, but this is the best we can do right now.

Bexxie has also fixed the way the site downloads files – remember how before, when you downloaded a zip, it wouldn’t say how long it would take etc etc? Well, thats fixed. That might also help other download issues – but the Supaset 8 issue has persisted. Here is the new link for that by the way:-

Did you know that My Angel has had over 25000 vies on Youtube? Weird. And a Ninja Tune artist put my remix of Udachi’s “Smokerings” in his years top 10, so thats cool too.


I am sure I had more stuff to tell you…errr…I am now on Soundcloud? Its a good way to send me stuff, and it has the Bangface mix uploaded and available for download for those that want it! And I have been keeping my New Year resolution to do 2 Tweets a day on Twitter. Follow me there if you like :o) Oh, and I ran across this site yesterday and have been lauging my ass off ever since. Check it out if you haven’t already:-

    Thanks for the new podcast!
    Really liked the music and the cute drunken chit-chat :)
    I think the one tune sounded more like “loops & tings” by Jens, but hey, cheers!
    You could always read a book on x-mas and new year’s eve…

    LOL! Loving the podcast – ROOOBOOOTTTSS!!!

    And re: dubstep, I once heard someone say that if an alien race ever came to earth, listening to all the different bases in dubstep might be like listening to them trying to communicate with us, which I think is a hilarious and great description.

    Great idea doing both of you on the mics by the way, was great to listen to!

    Best podcast yet. The banter was fun; I also agree that having a co-host once in a while is a great idea.

    Podcast was spot on with loads of great tunes. Loved hearing Beckie on the podcast with you along with her excellent D&B mix! :-)

    You can play a drinking game with the amount of times I say “awesome”

    Bexxie · Jan 19, 05:55 PM



    This one was really good – I’d like to see a video demonstration of the fat robot dance though.

    Great tune also Bexxie!
