To say thank you for caring so well for local young people with terminal illness, breaks music producer Simon Tagg aka Kouncil House put the call out to his contacts book and created a block busting album of exclusive tracks from some of the world’s biggest acts.
Released digitally through leading download store trackitdown.net in June on his respected ADHD Digital label. All proceeds raised through paid for download will be donated to the worthy cause.
Testament to the old skool empathy of the underground dance community and the power of the new skool digital era, 45 amazing breaks, house, dubstep and drum and bass tracks came flying in from such heavyweights as; Justin Robertson, Brookes Brothers, Slipmatt, Meat Katie, Krafty Kuts, Leeroy Thornhill and Deekline & Wizard.
‘It’s a pleasure to be involved in such a great project in such good company’ says acid house legend Robertson, while Brookes Brothers agree ‘[that] there’s not enough projects like these for producers like us to get involved in.’
Simon Tagg was also motivated by the recent and sad loss of his mother who helped inspire this payback project and he dedicates all the effort and hard work to her memory.
Ellenor Lions Hospice is based in Greenhithe in Kent and will benefit from any proceeds raised by the digital sale of this amazing package of cutting edge tracks. For many years they have worked in the local community to help people with terminal illness act in comfort and dignity, and all involved agree that this is a worthy cause; ‘it’s for a great cause and everyone should want to get involved’ states drum and bass godfather Mickey Finn.
Trackitdown.net is the UK’s leading dance music download store with well over 200,000 DJ’s registered as customers giving this project a great platform upon which to launch. Founder Ed Real states; ‘we really hope that every one of our customers and the wider dance music community seriously consider downloading this album – even regardless of the good cause, this is one serious set of tracks for the biggest acts on the planet!’

I’ve stumbled across this funky little tool for online music production. Its made by the people at Hobnox and is a completely free online music production experience.
You can find this tool at http://www.hobnox.com/index.1056.de.html and its essentially an online sequencer rack allowing you to experiment with different sounds.
There are hundreds of buttons and knobs to twiddle with and if you create anything half decent, you can record it and save it to listen to again. Detailed information can be found here http://www.hobnox.com/index.1021.de.html?blg[project_handle]=Reef2&blg[id]=2349&blg[proc]=show.
There are Electro and Drum ‘n’ Bass presets available or you can start with a blank canvass. I can see myself spending a good few hours with this…

I picked up the Mash Up Mix 2008 double CD mixed by the Cut Up Boys the other day, and I have to say it rocks!
I am a big fan of mash ups as they provide a little something different to throw into the mix at a hungry dancefloor. There is a certain art to creating a mash-up and the Cut Up Boys who mixed the album have got it absolutely spot on.
There is a huuuge selection of music tracks on this double album ranging from funky house, to electro, to breakbeat and a touch of drum & bass too.

I can’t drive without having music of some kind playing in the back ground. Either the radio, or a CD, or whatever mp3 is to hand, I simply have to have music playing.
