nid & sancy hail from belgium…they make cool music to drive round the city to…turn down the window & feel the wind on your face and pretend you bad ass….no serious… get this track….if you feeling more of the same cool sounds hit them up on MYSPACE… HIPLESS COUPLES and myself have endless nightmares of one day having to admit to ourselves the music we were loving was just a phase…maybe even a bad one? but this shit is timeless and just plain cool
Dallas Oberholzer…. what can i say? this guy is a true south african inspiration…i mean he heads out into the middle of nowhere (valley of 1000 hills KWAZULU NATAL) years ago and hangs with this chief on his land and puts to him an idea of a skateboard camp in the middle of the bush which will integrate two vastly different cultures and just all on all be the craziest experience ever… and they go with him…fast forward and with funding help from the NATIONAL SPORTS TRUST and ELEMENT USA they have managed to build a uniquely african skatepark shaded by acacia trees and looking over rivers…. you cant get more awesome than that.They have two camps coming up in december which you can get more info up on www.indigoskatecamp.co.za or if you in that neighbourhood go check it out and become one with nature and four wheels and watch lil kids with no shoes tearing the fuck outta a 12 ft vert ramp….i have had loads of friends go out there to help with building an camps and just come back changed people… well worth looking into whether you skateboard or not. i got so much respect for individuals with passion and vision….and here is one of the strongest examples… nice
thanks to craig scott for the images

i still get mini heart attacks whenever i see a FOALS remix …..their first album ANTIDOTES was probably the best album i heard for 2008… but to be honest after they had that remix competition for ELECTRIC BLOOM i heart a lot of shit coming out … so imagine my suprise to get this NEO TOKYO remix this morning…and guess what? its actually pretty cool….happy monday………lets do it all again

i got loads of time for TRICKY and his new album KNOWLE WEST BOY - i think some of the craziest times have been accompanied by TRICKY in my life…..how about you? you ever listen to this guy cough and splutter over fucked up beats? a long time ago i had MAXINQUAYE stuck in my front loader for about 4 months… it just wouldnt eject…i knew the words off by heart …sinister ….”I think ahead of you, i think instead of you,will you spend your life with me and stifle me?i know why caged birds sing…i know why”….. anyway here is something cool off the new abum and a remix just done of council estate…..easy
ive had tracks from these guys for awhile and i guess just been waiting for the right time to fit some in….well that time is now - saturday morning….after everything you put yourself through the night before to reach for some unobtainable need and you go to bed way to late and restless …wake up and put this on…and smile……..everything is gonna be ok
i couldnt find a pic for ARTWORK so here is a remix they did for LATE OF THE PIER….so i can stick them up in the gap
