Yeah, tis a quality album, I kinda didn't get into it at first then started listening to it again and really connected with it. Shifting Tides is one of my fav albums too. jim4thewin!

His new Omunit stuff is crazy, I had him come down to Kingston on Thursday to do a new live set- straight h33t. In my opinion his new stuff is some of his best work since Shifting Tides. Although all his other albums have good standout tracks and his production has increasingly improved, Shifting Tides has always been a really complete album for me with no songs that could be skipped. Plus it's a subtle scratch related album that doesn't scream "look at me I'm scratching flutes aren't I clever". Everything is subtly done and rhythmic. It's probably my favourite scratch related album of all time.

 

The softer diagram has some ill tracks too: 'a word', 'distant shadows', 'harbour lights', 'the most high'...

2tall is almost done basically..

 

om unit is my new baby, its a painful move in a way but its a necessary awakening.

 

everything i've done up to now has been under par, however authentic sounding, i have never truly been happy with any of it and i have to cut the ties that bind.

 

this is a move in the right direction..

everyone goes nuts for the joker remix, but that's just a banger i made, most of my new material is like spacey deep house at 100bpm. steamy! haha

 

i dunno, i just stopped taking it all so seriously - i even started cutting again recently just for fun.

 

i am still here just not the same guy you used to know mate, all the bullshit i've been through releasing 3 1/2 albums just led me to a place where i realised so much about the industry side of things.

 

now im fixing up, I have a publishing deal on the table and brighter, more autonomous prospects where i don't have to rely on amateurs.

 

i hope to release the last 2tall album on content as dday knows whats up. then, that's it.

 

after that who knows, i am already doing some songwriting and producing with a friend of mine from france called dajla - http://www.myspace.com/dajla

 

also im learning piano slowly, and buying boogie funk records and old school dance classics.

 

i quit smoking again too - just trying to stay awake so i can keep pushing forward, shedding skins along the way.

 

 

i plan to put up all my albums on my myspace for free download this weekend, i'll link it here too.

 

anyway enough about me reh reh reh! lol

played the joker remix non stop this weekend, absolutly awsome tune , so catchy - played it to a few mates that are not normally into that style, but everyone was snapping necks all over the shop ! Tried looking for it on itunes - is it getting a release ?

On a side note...have you heard much of joker's stuff mate? The majority of it is great. check juno/beatport etc for his stuff
