hello christine !



may i just welcome my newest blog fan, christine. christine is mrs smackhead's sister and she lives in paris. mrs smackhead has been telling all her friends about this site but i get a little embarrassed as it's my little world where i say what i want. but then again maybe she's just trying to get more people to visit.

today was my 37th birthday and i got the "wildstyle" 25th anniversary dvd and charlie ahearn's sampler book of the film (he was the director). cracking stuff. anyone who likes this sort of thing should also get martha cooper's "the hip hop files" and "yes, yes, y'all" by charlie ahearn and jim fricke. i also got a jumper and some vouchers but they aren't as essential !

i went to the woking beer festival last night with my brother and got completely arseholed. smashing fun so i'll see you there next year. i didn't get up until 2 pm today and then went for a super meal in guildford at "chez gerard" (they're a chain). i had a tejine (a sort of moroccan stew) which was ace and snails in garlic butter...mmmmmmmm !

so i'm a year older and hopefully wiser but i'm looking forward to posting some great stuff in the next year. i've got to get my shit together and learn how to transfer vinyl to mp3. today's track is another off that cdr spencer parker kindly sent me. it's by "dj t" and is called "rimini". the picture at the top is apparently the beach at rimini (according to google anyway). "dj t" had a boss track out some years back on "marine parade" (adam freeland's label) called "monsterbaze" (with steve bug of "poker flat" fame). his name fell off my radar and then popped up again when i first came across some top german stuff on "get physical". i started getting records by "m.a.n.d.y." and "booka shade" and saw "dj t" on the same label. turns out he was a hip hop dj or something but sort of followed the electro path and ended up doing what he does now. anyway, i'll shut up and leave you with

dj t - rimini (spencer parker re-edit)
