While a many folks seem to be losing interest in the DMC championships, Redbull Thre3style appears to be a competition which tries to get away from the DJ Nerdery that goes over the average punter’s head. In it’s first year in Australia, this tournament puts more of an emphasis on crowd rocking. These are some pics from the NSW Heats of Sampology (who helped judge and DJed at the end) and myself. The night was won by Typhonic, but our very own Mike Who? was a very close second.
Here’s a Caribbean, Wobble-Hop mix from Sampology on triple j Mix Up…
I had a bit of a love hate relationship with the band. Bombs Over Baghdad for instances – not necessary. I just want to hear that kicking, crisp electronic production rather than a wall of noise through which it was sometimes difficult to make out the song. However, on the other hand, Spottieottiedopalicious played with the help of two horn players in matching green Adidas tracksuits – stooooopid fresh to the power of infinity plus one.
Oh did anybody see that hoochie doing her stripper dance between the horn players? Oh dear! Maybe it would work in a place where folks weren’t so rhythmically challenged, but it just seems awkward when they invite the girls on stage in an attempt to turn the encore into the after party.
Nitpicking aside, Big Boi has hits for days, and delivers them with an amazing energy and flow. He played his part of all the Outkast hits as early as ‘Southernplayalisticcadiallacmusic’ taking us through to his more recent ‘Sir Luscious Left Foot’ solo jams. What more can I say? Dude can really rap, and it is just bumping party music.
In addition, Theophilus London was fun. Bringing a little bit of that Andre 3000 element to the tour.
Oh and big ups to Thundamentals who almost got kicked off the tour for stealing chicken backstage. Apparently Big Boi has two tonnes of chicken wings in his rider in every variety from Buffalo Wings to Honey Mustard Wings.

My gosh! Songs like these were just so ahead of their time. I grew up with Aaliyah. I had a little R&B/Hip Hop song that we had written to the Back N Forth Instrumental, and used to perform at Under 18 Parties way back in the days.
Aaliyah would be my age now, and was always a celebrity crush of mine. Today it is 10 years since she was lost to the world. Rest in Peace.
Here are some remixes of her stuff that I think are actually good.
Happy fun times. The might Thundamentals join us for talk and rapping. Plus we play some of our favourite Outkast and Dungeon Family classics and get into some future beats from the future.

I was holding this post till the dubstep remix came out. You know the one with the inappropriate, over the top, brain hemorrhaging bass drops. It seems that any time a big track drops it is followed by a gang of remixes by hungry young music producers looking for attention. Some awesome. Some totally unnecessary. I will let you and your liking abilities be the judge of these two.

Damn! My photoshop skillz are off the chain. I need to start taking design work. So… ah yeah… I do a weekly Sunday party at this fine establishment by the name of Ching-a-lings. It is a nice place for a chilled drink, good music and maybe some light dancing in Sydney. This week it is R&B themed with special guest DJs ANK1A and Wendy Samantha.
When you think this video couldn’t get any more awesome the mummy appears. I think I have a new hero. I love the poses he makes every time he says ‘Tell em what I am’. The one at 1:43 seconds is the best. I think I will spend today just practicing that.
