So, it's been a while since the last update here, but to be honest, I've kinda been holding off till the new year to get things situated. First off, I want to say THANK YOU to all you guys and girls for supporting my music (and me!) over the past year. It's hard to believe this started just over a year ago! The shows have been awesome, it's been great meeting new people, traveling thru your neighborhoods, and forging new friendships! It's a privilege and I remind myself everyday of that!
The downside to all of this is that the Kill The Noise project has grown so much and so quickly it's forced me to put a lot of my other projects on hold, i.e. EWUN & LUDACHRIST. I get both heartfelt and sarcastic remarks periodically, both on the internets and IRL from angry drum'n'bass people and people who are demanding another Ludachrist mix. So for the record, I just started working out in the gym, cut my smoking down A LOT (i barely smoke anymore) and plan to cut my drinking down quite a bit this year (...this one might be tough) This is all in an effort to increase my level of health so I can sleep less so I can work more on all of these projects equally. I'm trying! SRSLY!! In fact, I've already scheduled half of February to fly out to Los Angeles for a non-stop-all-out-Ludachrist-a-thon studio session with Knick.
Anyway, after what has seemed to be a never ending holiday season, I am sinking back into studio world to work on what is going to be perhaps my most ambitious effort to date. I don't wanna give away too much but I am starting work on an album of 100% original material, and many collaborations with some familiar faces.
In conclusion, I gotta leave you guys with some kinda reward for reading thru all that rambling. Here's something I managed to put together over the past coupla weeks. It's a remix of a brooklyn based group called "The Retro Kidz". The name of the track is called "New Era". I'm really feelin' what they are doin' for one main reason: because they are having fun. Besides the fact that musically I like what I'm hearing, it's about the attitude and the energy. I think it's easy for people to forget that we are all supposed to be having fun. Nothings worse than DJ's or producers, or whatever... people in general, who analyze shit till it loses all it's flavor. Or getting caught up being jaded or an elitist. That kind of attitude really leads down a dead end in life I think. That's another resolution on my behalf, to try and have more fun. Work can be fun too! Anyway big shouts to, Junior Sanchez, and the Retro Kidz (and management!) for signing off on this remix! Also be sure to check out the record label's official blog here: Brobotlife.com!
