Vinyl / Digital


Probably the funniest thread I've read in a post in a long time. Incredible banter on an always hot subject started with a hilarious comment ...

Myself and Mr. Smith are thrilled to have our Soul Part II track as the debut release on Jimpster's new Delusions Of Grandeur imprint. If that's not enough ... John Daly gone done a damn fine deep diggler too. D.O.G. releases look set to slide somewhere between house and disco in your local emporium (or what Craig and myself call ... "it is but it isnae"). Available on 12" now and digital soon.

Red Rack Em' Remix


Danny's excellent 12" for Deep Freeze is out now in Phonica + Piccadilly. His 'Picnic' track reminds me of the best of that early detroit sound and I was chuffed to bits (like the short-sighted train spotter) when I was asked to contribute a remix.

In Excess...



A quick rework of a track from INXS' debut album way back in '78 (I think). Most of it is farily by-the-numbers Aussie punk but theres a couple of belters in there including the "Just Keep Walking" jam that was sampled to good effect by Par-T-One a few years back. Anyway here's Learn to smile kids ;)

The MP3 recorder was back out in full force this weekend to capture the vibe of the Cosmic Microwave party I played at on Saturday there. Was good fun and fairly busy which is a bit of a rare occurance for a new party starting in Glasgow these days! Enjoy
