travelling around before school starts, saw Prefuse 73 and Gaslamp Killer in Chicago and now I'm in Cleveland for a little bit before I head over to NYC and Baltimore. Making progress on my massive song (taking time with it) and I came up with another bitty I'm happy with and is minimal enough that I will probably finish it first, dubstep without wobble and a very arabic inspired-feel. Need to get home to my turntables and keyboard though before I can really make progress with either.

Also this trip is the first time I've really practiced being mobile, I essentially carry everything I need on me at all times to pull out a DJ set, at least with just ableton. Never know when you run into opportunities trippin about.

Cheers

so anyways I'm doing random projects right now, I've made a few dubstep tracks, listened to more dubstep, decided to not like said dubstep tracks so I'm back to making more, along with trying to make another 12-minute instrumental hip hop thing. Tempted to combine the two into one, dubstrumental hip hop? Also some Oberlin house parties have been most excellent so far, Halloween was crazy and this past Saturday across the street from Barrows felt good as well, Safety and Security being very quick this year at times.

finally gettin to work

So I've become obsessed with Dubstep since the end of summer, so I'm starting to dabble in that direction. Last night I rekindled by love with the electrocomp, something straight out of the sci-fi 50's that's in the TIMARA lab at school.


blam! With fall break coming up and midterms ending I think I finally have a good opportunity to release some stuff. I plan to pull together some of my unused beats and make another 12-minute trip for instrumental hiphop and then start making some dubstep tracks to compliment the fact I've been DJing dubstep alot lately. I got a spot to open up for Flosstradamus when they come by Oberlin, but I'll be in the DJ booth so bringing all my equipment is impossible as I'm stuck with my mobile dj set up that consists of a controller (BCR2000, just a wall of knobs) and my laptop rather than my turntables =(

Also I do dubstep night at the 'Sco now cause I'm on a mission to get these sounds into peoples heads. I'm not kidding when I said I've been hardcore into the step lately, big fan of the direction that whole genre is going, mixing together elements of natural/old school sounds (like violins or dub beats) with hardcore electro sounds. Very cool, I'm excited to make what I hear i my head.
