Tech Happy & Down with Cash!
Half the fun of djing and electronic music is exploring hardware itself. A lot of top notch electronic manufactures have been in the business of customizing equipment for top notch artist usually for promotional needs. But when I read in BPM this month (online) I nearly flipped my lid at this month’s Gear section. KORG has introduced a completely new and revolutionary concept to the dj mixer. They’ve taken into considerations the live performances element of djing and incorporated modern solutions for laptop musicians, studio remixers and live PA groupings with instruments with their new ZERO LIVE CONTROL MIXERS. Gawd remember when kill switches were the coolest things to the mixer! Fuck the Iphone, I want this new mixer for Christmas!Click here for a full Review from BPM Magazine
On teee zzz musik….
The first time I heard Sir Don Cash was on the 'This Is The Sound Of Young NY' series comp that came out last year. Hailing from Toronto Sir Cash is the coolest. He’s down with James Murphy, Headman and is signed to Switzerland’s Relish Recordings.
Don Cash II is the new release. "Hey There" and "Disco Wreck" are the hot dance floor singles. These traxxxs are showing up on a ton of mix tapes from here to Sydney. But I noticed he's getting very little Blog action and his internet presences is super low which I don’t get cause the music is smart, fun and ultra cool. Hopefully that will change cause the Cash is set to start touring soon.
The visual clip I'm including is the "Hey There" video. It gets a bit monotonous about a minute into it. BUT not if you’re high dude!!! All the freaky camera dissolves start to get all crazy and shit. To the point where you need a seat belt on your couch to prevent you from sliding to the floor and passing out from seizure like symptoms.
