Monthly Music #3

By Dhiren | Published: February 5, 2011
Creds Reading on the train is difficult – even at the best of times. I find it hard to get into books, especially on the way home from work, because of winter-induced lethargy and distractions-a-plenty: Teenage girls wagging, loudly on mobiles, about fat problems, boyfriend problems or both; baritone remarks about football, cars and IT [...]

Segsy winter sounds. You, vino, the Mrs and dancing indoors.

Monthly Music #1

By Dhiren | Published: May 2, 2010
I’m going to start sharing my musical finds on a monthly basis as people often ask me what I’m listening to. Yes I’m one of those “headphones on” guys, but I do smile and nod. This month is mix of glitch, jazz, garage rock, indie, hip-hop and folk. Before I give a run down of [...]

Some music trends

By Dhiren | Published: May 3, 2009
I was interested to see which music website or web application was the most popular out of all my current favourites: Is blip.fm slowly losing the battle? I also started researching DJ Shadow, apparently he’s quite big in Poland — I had no idea! Poszanowanie!

Aim album covers

By Dhiren | Published: April 28, 2009
I’m loving Aim for several reasons at the moment: - Trip-Hop beats are just ace - Reportage style photos on all the album covers that look like they’ve been taken with a rangefinder or some old Kodak Chrome - Retro typeface used for his logo Hear him on all of the usual suspects, Lastfm et [...]

Eastern Electro

By Dhiren | Published: March 22, 2009
I bought some great albums this weekend by Nasha Records, just supreme eastern electro breaks. Their online shop doesn’t let you download directly; however, I recommend tunetribe, who have the online music purchasing experience well and truly mastered. Everything from UE, SEO and good design have been addressed very well. I had my music downloaded [...]

Tru-Thoughts

By Dhiren | Published: February 1, 2009
I’ve become a massive fan of Brighton based record label Tru-Thoughts. All tracks can be bagged from etchshop.co.uk and I thoroughly recommend the shapes compilations. Hectic!

Digital Freegans

By Dhiren | Published: January 4, 2009
Not too long ago I was watching a TV program about Freeganism and Freegans, it was a Cutting Edge style show, not quite sure what channel it was on. It got me thinking… The web is turning people into Digital Freegans, people who use the webs’ free resources as alternatives to traditional paid for sources [...]

DIY DJ

By Dhiren | Published: January 3, 2009
I’ve stumbled upon Mac DJAY, easy to use DJ software for Mac OSX. It is very cool indeed as it imports all your music from iTunes and lets you record your own mixes. The software easy to use for amateurs (like me) and it has features for the pro’s too. I sense a few house [...]
