Things have been slow on the music front due to a laptop harddrive on it's last leg's...such a shame I recently fixed my AT M50's (headphones people, headphones!)
That said, Dee El will be releasing a new EP in 2013 - no vocals this time, slightly different feel to it as well but keen to produce a second release influenced by living and breathing the London life. As you can imagine there's loads of bass, kick drums and synths but I have been recently playing around with a cheap Dr Sample SP202 that I picked up for £30. The thing is awful in a really great way...
Does anyone have one of these? OP-1 Synth
Really fancy getting my hands on one!
Kev and I (aka ManReads) have taken a break from MR until the new year. We will be writing a new EP as we've pretty much played the album for the past 5 years. I have all these great ideas running through my head for MR but never enough time, as always they won't stop us and hopefully we'll have some new material sorted. I just want to be MyDisco and Kev just wants a peaceful life in the house...i'm sure there's a middle ground in their somewhere?!
I'm very much looking forward to reading all the mundane Top 10 lists. Whilst studying for exams, I stumbled across a now famous interview with Four Tet and The Guardian's main music correspondant. It's an honest, 10 minute rant from KH regarding year end lists and how muso's have this weird fascination with Top 10 lists even the content's of which are 90% bullshit. Anyways, Frank Ocean will feature in almost every top 10 no doubt which is a real shame...enough said.
