Ruffnek Diskotek at The Black Swan, Bristol, THIS SATURDAY

This is will be the last large Ruffnek Diskotek for the forseeable (don't fear, we shall be continuing our Bi-monthly slot at Cosies, Portland Sq!) so we intend to go out with a BANG!

It is a great surprise to all of us that Disrupt (and Soom T) have never before performed in Bristol, but that's the reality so we're addressing that. It also made sense to make the most of the occasion and bring in the awesome Mungo's Hi Fi soundsystem to present them on.

The rest of the line up speaks for itself - Mungo's will, of course, be spinning too; Ruffnek favourites the Heatwave (full crew I understand); Serocee will be returning to mic (because he enjoyed the last Monster Bass so much he insisted on joining us for this one!), Quest doing the deep deep dubstep thing (and on that rig!); and some bunch o' knobheads who call themselves Dub Boy and Monkey Steak.

Lemonade - Remain In Jah (Murderbot Remix)

Lemonade - Remain in Jah (Chrissy Murderbot remix)

Just found that the Stereogum website are giving away the above mp3 this week. Can't say I'm that up on Lemonade, but anyone who's heard me DJ recently will know how much I'm feeling the Juke and how much I'm feeling those steel pan tracks. (I put this down partly to the nostalgia of my school days and having the chance to play as part of a band in our Year 9 music classes). I reckon Chrissy's nailed both aspects in this remix.

We got a big Steak House exclusive to give away later this week, so take this post as a bit of a warm up ;)

Mixtape Monday: Jack B Nimble.

I was DJing in Nottingham the other week when a character emerged out of the gloom and pressed a CD into my hand. The character in question was mashup Maestro Jack B Nimble and the CD was his latest mixtape. Ranging everywhere from Funky House to Bashment to Bassline to Balkan Beat with a smattering of breaks and even a smidgen of Chaka Demus. Its bascially an hour of straight up party bangers, perfect for a drab autumn Monday.
