As most people know, I'm a big fan of Body Ink aka Tattoos. Even though I am yet to get my first piece done, it's a form that fascinates me with all the different styles, and parts of the human body that people get inked. I've been speaking with a Guy called Tattoo Karlo via IG for a while now, and I'm a fan of his work, and ink. He recently did a video called Life of the Ink, check it out, the lyrics are truth to how people see him on a day to day basis, having all of his ink.
It's been a quiet one this week, did a bit of music research, whoa, and I'm still doing it now. Starting some new projects, but not to worry I won't get side tracked or swayed from keeping my site updated lol. Big shout to my boy Pretty Casual, check out his tracks via http://www.soundcloud.com/prettycasualmusic, and look out for his mashups in my sets, I'm currently rinsing his Boy Better Know - Too Many Man mashup.
My Top 5 this week is
D'BANJ - Oliver Twist (Mercury)
JACK BEATS - You Should Know feat Donae'o (Promo)
RITA ORA - R.I.P. feat Tinie Tempah (ROC Nation)
TONY MATTERNHORN - Dutty Whine
USHER - Climax Urban Noize remix (Promo)
Look out for my newest Tee, I'm the DJ. Full details dropping this week, and available to purchase worldwide.

Firstly, Happy Birthday to Lelly D. Secondly, Another tiring weekend over and done with, and Thirdly apparently it's nearly 100 days til London becomes a Olympic paradise...or not!
This weekend saw me playing more at London Sky Bar for Shhh Parties, and joining us was Hugo Taylor & Spencer Matthews from the E4 television program, Made in Chelsea.

Pinch punch and all that junk folks. Well the good weather has officially left us for now, and it's looking like the only warmth we'll be feeling in the UK is that of the central heating, and mugs of tea with your hot cross buns, or chocolate eggs...how do you eat yours lol.

Coming soon ya'll!

DJ HATCHA - King Toes (Dub)
STINKAHBELL - A Zoners (Dub)
MEGALODON - East Oakland (Family Tree)

Yesterday saw me back on Rood.FM covering for Soulz on the Sin City show, as he was off on travels. I started the show off with a vinyl only, back to 2002 selection which went down a treat, and also put in the usual freshness dubs from DJ Hatcha, Stinkahbell, Cato and many more. Have a listen back via my MixCloud via the playback below, and full track listing is with the playback as well.
Yes, bout time I put this video up, nearly a year later, but I was back on the world famous Get Darker TV for episode #128 alongside my Acute brothers Soap Dodgers, and top boy Finwa. Have a watch of the video below from 1:11 in that's me. You can also download the audio via the GetDarker podcast channel via iTunes.

Pioneer are always bringing new technology to the DJ market, and this is their latest offering. The Pioneer Remix Station RMX 1000. Taking a totally new direction to effectors and samplers, the RMX-1000 is a three-in-one system comprising editing software, innovative performance hardware and VST and AU plug-ins. Have a watch of the video to see this new tool in action, I am sure I'll get a demo of this in WestEnd DJ once it's fully released to the worldwide market in May.
