Dub boy's Gurt Tropical Mix

These guys have been putting on wicked parties & pushing the tropical and karnival sound for a little while now, so I was delighted to be able to put together something that showcases some of the tunes I've been playing recently......

Dub Boy - Dancehall Nice Again

Dub Boy - Dancehall Nice Again Mix

A few months back, Dont Panic asked me to compile a mixtape for their website. Here is the result!

It's been over 2 years since I last made a dancehall mixtape, and in that time I had become somewhat bored of the turgid RnB, Hip Hop, American-aping sound dancehall had gone down.

However, to my delight, in the last few months dancehall has begun to revisit it's 80's & 90's digital and tinpan roots. This mixtape is a summary of some of my favourite tunes from recent months, plus some original dancehall anthems......

Ruffnek Diskotek / Steak House start a brand new, 2 hour radio show on Bristol's new internet radio station Hivemind FM this Wednesday. Dub Boy and myself will be doing the first session, and show will be going out every fortnight. If you've ever been to a Ruffnek Diskotek party before, you'll know what to expect, a big bassy bashy mix of dancehall, funky, garage, party electronics and dub.

The stream begins at 8pm on Wednesday 14th April. Get in the chatroom and let us know what you think!

Hivemind FM

Ghislain Poirier - Gutter Riddim

It seems that someone has started a blogging fire in the Steak House! Not to be outdone by Atki2 and Dub Boy, here is my new years blog post!

Future Steak House family member (hold tight for a remix on STEAK 003 and an artist EP to come) Poirier has recently refixed the tunes from his excellent Soca Sound System EP, taking the vocal tracks and splicing them over the new Gutter Riddim.

Most of the UK is buried under a thick carpet of snow but this is the perfect antidote to the bleak midwinter. Karnival heat to warm your cockles. Grab it below.


Poirier - Get Crazy feat. Mr. Slaughter (Gutter Riddim Refix)

Rubi Dan - Bashment Funky

The whole Bashment Funky takeover shows no signs of slowing down. People like Gabriel Heatwave (with his excellent Funky Bashment mix) and of course our own Steak House Crew have been pushing this sound hard recently. Sometime heatwave vocalist and all round bad boy Rubi Dan has come up with this latest Karnival banger alongside Juxci with the two of them spitting fire over The Bop Riddim. You can grab it below:

Rubi Dan and Juxci - Bashment Funky

Hanuman - Juno Chart

Juno asked us to put together a chart of our favourite releases of the moment and here it is. As well as the usual Steak House and Monkey Steak tunes, there are hot new tunes from Lisbon's Iberian Records, Bristol's Idle Hands and mysterious producer Bubblez

To celebrate this achievment we having a residents party at out monthly dance where we will dance, drink, eat cake and have lots of fun with our friends & family. No doubt there will be lots of fresh Steak House material getting played too.

For more info on Ruffnek Diskotek check the myspace: www.myspace.com/ruffnekdiskotek or find us on Facebook.

Octa Push - Kolokani - free mp3

In a wave of hype-building, bed-wetting anticipation for their forthcoming EPs on Iberian Records and Steak House Records (no less), Bruno and Leo once again show their unbelievable (and one could say reckless) generosity by giving away another of their hot productions! Frankly, I'm still reeling from their remix of Buraka Som Sistema's Sound of Kuduro, and "Kolokani" is equally essential. As you'd expect from Lisbon's finest bass makers, this tune is pure dancefloor fire!

Octa Push - Kolokani

"Ai Nadia" and "Laika Likes It" by Octa Push, backed by "1975" by Mr Gasparov will be released on Steak House Records this autumn.

Steak House Records is Go

Just a quick post to let you know that Steak House Records is now official. We've just confirmed worldwide distribution with ST Holdings and the first 12" should be out later in the year. Its going to be a split between the excellent Octapush and Mr Gasparov and you can hear previews of it on our myspace now!
