Just to prove I'm not a liar, here's some trax

ENDUSER - ONE THIRD (SKRMX) by Shere Kahnn

HYPESTEP (FUCK YEAH! WHAT SKRMX) by Shere Kahnn

So there.

Oh yeah and I forgot to mention I plan one uploading a new track every week or so. So watch this space, or just like, take the easy way out and follow me on soundcloud. On second thought, don't do it.

3 weeks later

Well 3 weeks have gone by, managed to get the nanokontrol set up, with each of the 8 sliders/knobs representing different effects, need to set it up for traktor though, or maybe I should try deckadance like I've been meaning to... Actually, if I can automate the tempo in FL, I'll be sorted.

I've got a potential set/night/gig coming up (don't really know what to call it when I play "live"), it's gonna be in Dublin, first in dublin in a LONG time actually, first since the Gamepak Blackout fiasco, which was effectively the last Gamepak too, which was a shame, cause it was always mad fun. Either way though those nights always ended up having "better" (more poular, dubstep) acts downstairs, i.e. that time, I played upstairs at the same time as Kode 9 was downstairs (or whatever/whoever/whatever they're/he's calling him/themselves) so there was effectively no one there, I stopped playing chuiptune and lashed out a few of my older breakcore hits, which didn't go down too well, not that I can even really remember...

Anyways the night coming up is being set up by Jaygo, hopefully it all works out, he was talking about booking boxcutter, and me playing support, which sounded like nonsense, but he reassured me that I'd be playing in a different room. This could be the start of something decent though, and it's been a while since anything decent and regular's been around, cause Jaygo's mad down with the hardcore and breakcore.

I think I might suggest booking Shitmat, which would then make him the live act I've seen the most times, at about 5. I must get those pictures of me spooning him while he was asleep on Michael's couch, although those might be top secret, but I doubt he'd mind the idea. That is Henry, Michael might be a bit worried of how he'd react though...

Okay so remember a few weeks/months back I said I'd post stuff as I put it out on this thing, I LIED. Ha not really but yeah I did, having never posted a single track in here. So here goes, a double bonanza!
Well, this is great, I can't access my soundcloud widgets, I'll try do it later, or tomorow or something... But anyways thats a shitload of news there, definitely a couple weeks worth anyway, I'll keep (trying) to post.

Today

so, I got the nanokontrol this morning, can't wait to fuck around with it later, yay!

Hope it isn't too difficult to set up or anything, never really done anything like this before except for the 808. actually couldn't set that up due to lack of Midi... Well, got the MAdcatz RockBand Midi Guitar working okay recently, I just this is what I was looking for... Although it kinda looks like it'd be an Ableton controller, maybe I should learn to use ableton, nah, heep of shite, just need to figure out a way to use FL live, WITHOUT it crashing on me, that was a nightmare :( first ever gig, let's not talk about it...

More Excuses

Well, still haven't finished the horse force track, it's getting at that point where it's gotten really good, but I'm not sure how to carry it on without the track randomly changing or getting shit or something, it's a bit daunting really.

Anyway's Max is gone to Exit in Serbia, so I'll have the place to myself for a couple weeks, might not get so distracted and actually get something done. Yeah that'd be nice.

Keeping up Appearances

Well, I'm not very good at maintaining this blog at all.

Suppose it's because I've been less bored in work recently.

Still got those tunes in the works, well the Ariel one's done, sent it off to potentially be in a compilation, see how she goes... and the Horse Force one's nearly there, although it is getting extremely heavy these days, and not really sounding anything like a remix anymore.

Anyway that's all for now;

I'm gonna leave ya with this one;


Oh wait yeah, forgot to mention, went on a bit of a shopping spree on ebay, this is my new vice for boredom in work. Finally got a NanoKontrol (ahem, several years after I originally wanted to get one) so yay, taht should be here soon, finally got my smartboy cart, with LSDJ running on it, which is bad ass, now just to get a working DMG... Also got some pretty beasting shoes, but that's another story for another blog, Next month (hopefully) will see me getting a new laptop (way overdue) and some monitor speakers (although I'm not sure what to get, I think I want yellow ones, they look loud)
