Afro beat sessions vol 2 - @keziahjnz vs @gillespeterson

2012-01-23T00:15:00.000Z

seriously considering calling this section Fro beats.... maybe not. IF YOU ARE A DJ of any description and you have listened to any afro beat - you know you did wrong... its been a quiet wave which I predict will crash heavily into the mainstream in 2013.

THERES A SAYING THAT GOES HOUSE MUSIC IS ETERNAL, AFROBEAT IN INFINITE...

You can see where they are coming from... its that beat of the drum the heart beat... that is in EVERY form of music. Well practically.

This Afro beats sessions is kicked off with a Remix from Giles Peterson

Citing Jimi Hendrix and Fela Kuti as his main influences Nigerian-born Blufunk innovator Keziah Jones's fluid and acrobatic vocals and his distinctive guitar-playing make for a unique sound of Afrobeat, blues, rock, pop and funk.

Best Thing I never Had (Bilderberg Group Remix) - Beyonce

2011-12-18T00:38:00.000Z

The Bilderberg Group, are what many are calling the next "top 10 single" Production & DJing team in the UK,

The “Group” consists of two brothers Bode & Toyin (‘T’) who, as individuals have already ready worked with the likes of BET & MOBO Award winner SWAY, SHUX, super-producer of Jay Z’s No.1 hit “Empire State of Mind” and acclaimed UK Pop sensation DAVE JORDAN, as well as remixes for other major label artists, soon to be released.

What makes them particularly eye/ear-catching is not only their ability to produce, remix (and mix) cross-genre hits, ranging from Urban and R&B to Dance, Electro and Pop, but also their ability to produce such hits in an original manner, breathing fresh life into the music they write and produce .

Their forward thinking sound is urban and edgy with a strong mainstream appeal. And with their attitude of "making cool pop that makes pop cool" it is no wonder why many are calling them the next "top 10 single" production team in the UK.

Already tipped by SketchBook Magazine as stars of the future and "a breath of fresh air" for the Music Industry, This young and talented Group is fast becoming a musical force to be reckoned with.

They have recently finished shooting a video for their debut single which is due for free download release (at all major online outlets), in the new year.. The single, "BIG LIFE" features a very promising young artist called Pinks Perez. This is a major party anthem aimed particularly at the “student generation”

Spider man

2011-11-04T00:12:00.000Z

The Silver Lining, The Spider Webs! An unexpected side-effect of the flooding in parts of Pakistan has been that millions of spiders climbed up into the trees to escape the rising flood waters. Because of the scale of the flooding and the fact that the water has taken so long to recede, many trees have become cocooned in spiders webs. People in this part of Sindh have never seen this phenome...non before but, they also report that there are now far fewer mosquitoes than they would expect, given the amount of stagnant, standing water that is around. It is thought that the mosquitoes are getting caught in the spiders web, thus, reducing the risk of malaria, which would be one blessing for the people of Sindh, facing so many other hardships after the floods...!!!
