Flower Of Life

I just had to blog this!

G Rina, is a singer / dj / producer based in Tokyo. She has recently completed a side project called Mashed Pieces, whereby she has a recorded a series of excellent vocals over a selection of contemporary dubstep & house beats.

As well as Dub Boy & Atki2's 'Tigerflower', she has recorded songs using beats from Martyn, Joker, Pinch amongst others, plus Steak House's own Mr Gasparov (which is a great rework of his 1975 track released on Steak 001)!

Check her myspace to hear more!

And whilst we're on the subject of Tigerflower, there's been a great response to both the track and the whole Idle Hands release in the last few weeks.

Boomkat have been very positive about the release describing our efforts as "delicious tropical house fusions"

And Onethirtybpm have given us glowing reviews in their monthly dubstep reviews saying Tigerflower is "fucking phenomenal" and the 12" is "absolute fucking dynamite".

If you havn't got it already, the 12" and mp3's are available at all the usual online retailers, but if you can, you should purchase it from the wonderful Rooted Records, and help support the team behind such a great shop and wicked labels such as Punch Drunk, Idle Hands & Unearthed

Steak House Family 12" on Idle Hands

This morning, I was excited to find that the second 12" on Idle Hands went on sale at Rooted Records yesterday. For those who may not yet know, this is the first 12" to feature all the Steak House crew on production duties!

A1 - Hanuman - Bola (Atki2 remix)
B1 - Atki2 and Dub Boy - Tigerflower
B2 - Atki2 and Dub Boy - Tigerflower (Grievous Angel remix)

Clips for all the tracks can be heard on the Idle Hands myspace. Those wanting to check the original Bola (fine tune it is too!), I believe there's another Sleazetone 12" in the works featuring said track and more remixes (Murderbot, Kanji Kinetic and Star Eyes if memory serves). But for now, I'm very content to have my version cut loud and proud on Bristol wax!

Tigerflower, I believe, was made about two years ago now, when Dubbers and I first stumbled across some Marcus Nasty mixtapes. It was a little while before we were really aware of what UK Funky was, and I remember he and I had several long (and probably quite tedious) conversations trying to work out whether what we were hearing was dancehall, or house, or garage, or quite what. Anyway, we both agreed that we should get in the music room and have a go at bashing some these beats out ourselves and so Tigerflower was the result. Looking back, it was definitely a significant moment getting Dub Boy working on production this time! Big ups to you mate, I still look back on that session fondly, and hopefully next time we'll get you pushing the buttons as well as rolling the joints! ;)

As for the Grievous Angel remix, I can't shed any further light on that one, other than to suggest listening to the clips, dropping it in the clubs and letting it work its magic! Paul has the Midas touch when it comes to bashment funky bangers.
