I’ve mentioned Tron 1.5 project in other posts but unfortunately the original site went down since World Famous Audio Hacker decided to disappear of the face of the internet. The good news is that the other guys involved in the project have said yes to rehosting the album on bandcamp so here you go:


Cheers to WFAH, Solcofn, Lillith The Kitten, Team 9, Rhythm Scholar and Celebrity Murder Party.

A couple of new TM remixes for you:
Stately Homes Of England – 1000 Blinking Lights (Tiger Mendoza remix)

The Half Rabbits – When The Rain Stops (Tiger Mendoza remix)

Downloads available from The Half Rabbits’ website.

In other exciting remix related news, Stately Homes of England have also done a great remix of Hope Sick:

Also a reminder that Helena, Sally and I are doing a ’semi-acoustic’ live set at Café Tarifa on Cowley Road, Oxford on Tuesday 9th February. Also on the bill are Kat Gadsden and Nigel Brown & Friends. Doors are at 9pm and it’s free entry so come down, drink booze and watch the first PROPER TM gig. Info and stuff can be found here.

My remix of The Half Rabbits‘ when the rain stops is now available to download from their website. If you’d like a listen first, here you go:

It’s also been added to the remixes page.

Also we’ve confirmed our first Tiger Mendoza live gig at Bar Tarifa in Oxford on Tuesday 9th February. It’ll be the first gig that Helena and I have done together that will feature acoustic and laptop stuff so should be fun. Should have more details and maybe a poster image soon.

And other fun? How about this.

First of all Happy New Year to you all! I found out today that my little bootleg has been selected as one of 2 winners of the first DJ Shadow remix competition! I am an exceptionally happy bunny!

The only problem is I’ve hit my download limit for the track on Soundcloud so here’s another download link:
DJ Shadow vs EBTG – Missing On The Motorway

It’s also been posted in the bootlegs part of the site. The other winner was NiT GriT’s brilliant reworking of Shadow’s Building Steam With a Grain of salt which you can listen to here.

Cheers to everyone that’s listened and downloaded and especially to the Djshadow.com team for selecting my mix. Helena said she’s up for trying to recreate “Missing…” live when we finally get to play live (which we’re hoping to do later this year) so I’ll keep you posted on how that goes.

As it’s coming up to Christmas we thought we’d put together a cover of a seasonal classic:

Enjoy the holiday season y’all!

Ho Ho Ho, Merry Christmas!
Or something like that anyway. I’ve been promising myself that I’d do this for a while but here are some stems for Hope Sick and Filmstar from The Hope Sick e.p.. The stems are currently available in 192kps mp3 and all content is licensed under a creative commons share alike license so as long as you’re not planning on selling your mix, you can do what you want with them.

Filmstar: mp3 stems | wavs [via bitorrent] | wavs [via mediafire]
Hope Sick: mp3 stems | wavs [via bitorrent] | wavs [via mediafire]

I’m also hoping to upload a full set of Ableton Live compatible wav files but they haven’t been uploaded yet. Ableton compatible wavs now available via BitTorrent and MediaFire!

If you do create a remix, let me know via facebook or my Soundcloud dropbox.
Send me your track

Part 2 hopefully coming tomorrow…

I got an invite to a beta of mixcloud a while back but haven’t really used it until now. It’s for people to share podcasts + mixes and stuff I guess. And as far as I can tell it’s all above board, which is nice. Here’s my first attempt at a mix tape.

Thanks to everyone that already listened to and tweeted this and to mixcloud for featuring it for a bit!

Hello! Just Thought I’d share the Fairtilizer playlist for the Tron 1.5 soundtrack that I mentioned earlier:

Thanks again to Audio Hacker for organizing the the whole thing (who also organised the “It’s Britney, Mixed!” project) and to everyone that put together music for the project.

Download the whole thing from http://tron.fm.

Finished off the bootleg / Remix I mentioned in the last post:

Always liked the way the 2 songs worked together in quite a dark way so it came together quite quickly. Added some beats of my own too.

[Update 18/11/09] Just found out I got this comment on soundcloud

“The rare mash-up that creates an entirely new take on both source tracks, awesome job”

- DJ Shadow

I honestly don’t think I could be more chuffed!
