Electo Breaks – If you see this dude buy him a pint then smash it in the barman’s face ,leap over the bar and take every penny from the til and give it all to Shinra. Rumour has it he assembling his own private army and has dastardly plans for world domination – not cheap. In the dystopian future while his faceless drones do his evil bidding, Mr Shinra can be locked in the studio and forced to further refine his brand of straight up electro burners. I have no idea what the fuck I am on about.
Heaving breaks re-release – What in all blazing fuck is going on with the recent proliferation of the pre fix “We Are…” to seemingly every bastard event,website, band or company in the whole of the universe.
A cursory google search turns up a tonne of results, here’s a few scraped from the top
www.wearemulticolored.com/

We Are Seventeen
www.wearereplay.com
www.wearemedia.org/
wearehunted.com/
WE ARE WOLVES
www.wearescientists.com/
www.wearechange.org

One might conclude it’s a way to get around purchasing a proper domain name .
“Oh no ! Scientists.com has gone – however will my inconsequential band reach stratospheric stardom now?, I’ll try wearescientists.com –yep that’s available.”
Sling “We Are..” in front of any name and hey presto you’ve somehow managed to double the amount of popular top level domain names available. You could do the same with personal websites if you really wanted.
“Hmm…Barack Obama.com has gone….hang on, what about I Am Barack Obama.com – yep that’s free”
This could go on forever. You can go and get “NoWEarewolves.com” and in response someone else can go and bag “IthinkyoullfindWEarewolves”
But that’s not why the usage of “We Are” has spread in such popularity. People think its a really cool thing to do.
They think it’s like sticking a flag in their brand and resting one foot on it, raising a clenched fist to the world and triumphantly bellowing “We Are!!! (insert whatever the fuck you want right here) But actually where this may have been construed as a bold and salient statement in seconds gone by, it just gets lost in the thudding drone of mediocrity. And before you know it some gobby website like this will pick up on it and start ripping into your great idea and you start to feel like a bit of a prick. Hahaa!
Why stop at the first person, plural,infinitive of the verb to be? Lets work our way through the whole motherfucking conjugation shall we?
I am Scientists
You are multicoloured
He She It is wolves
We are Change

Tense Rolling Techno – Soundcloud is about 300 billion times better than Myspace. Myspace is a breeding ground for insufferable,emo cunts peppered in star tattoos and sporting flesh tunnels through which you could thread a bus .
Soundcloud however does away with the pouting personalisation of Myspace and serves up a fast, friendly platform that offers its users music to the world through it’s snazzy players and widgets. Browsing through new tunes and artists is piss easy and you don’t get bombarded with pining “thanks for the add” oh-god-I-just-want-to-be-liked social slurry of Myspace.
One of the handiest features is being able to follow DJ’s and artists you like and can see what they have been commenting on. Which is how this track came to the attention of Loudat.
Dave Clarke wants a copy, so therefore I want a copy. Here’s some blinding techno from Bjoern Torwellen. No pouting. No tattoos. No fringes.
It’s been a long time since anything from Aldo Vannuci drifted into the Loudat shell-likes. In fact not so much as a peep from Plymouths14th best DJ since the cheery When I See You Smile was bumping around. Clearly not been paying attention, he’s a terribly busy chap.
So here’s a feelgood rerub by breakbeat’s hardest working duo Ben and Lex that has been re-released in all it’s full bandwidth glory for you to have for the princely sum of fuck-all.

Tearing UK Electro-Bass – Soil your peepers with the dirge that is the sleeve art for Bass Gun Records retrospective “All Guns Blazing”. Is this some kind of fucking joke ? Go on, look at it! Sweet christ on a unicycle have Bass Gun records got bollocks for eyeballs?
When it comes to design aesthetic electro labels are stuck somewhere between airbushed,public-school graffiti and special needs art-therapy wall daubings. The music was born of the late seventies and for some reason has totally falied to drag its rotting aritstic integrity past the advent of the Atari 2600
Thankfully the tracks on the release are better than the artwork by several million astronomical units. Bassgun records is one of the best Electro labels in the UK and is curated by Smashback and Paul Blackford. Their rosta includes EDMX, Radioactive Man, Dexorcist and Decal which if you happen to be into the UK Bass sound should make you pebble dash your white and tights. This Bassgun Retrospective is shit loads better than it looks, and thank fuckery for that.

Frenched-up Gorillaz Throbber -Check Mister La Roche’s glowing homebrew remix of Gorillaz’ Stylo – This kid was born in the 90’s! The bloody 90’s. Free parties, dogs on blue nylon rope and happy-hardcore is just a faded memory to this young whipper snapper. It’s quite possible he has no recollection of a time in dance music before ketamine and everything went scuzzed up , wonky and people losing bowel control at raves wasn’t so common.

Hip-Hop Skank - You can’t lose mashing hip-hop and reggae really. Pretty much every release on NiceUp! records is a sure fire burner. It’s familiar – YAY! It’s reggae – It needs a centre piece – YAY!
Yep, that ticks the boxes for cool stuff, people are going to chat lyrics along to it and bump to the reggae lick- reagrdless of whether it’s worthy of any musical merit. Perhaps not the strongest release on the label (try the Hot Sleng Dub Plate) but well worthy of a mention. Nice Up!

Epic Breaks Soundtrack – Hybrid produce just about the biggest, most theatrical dance music known to man. Listening to a Hybrid track at a party you half expect the crowd to stop what they’re doing and applaud the music like an enormous,cinematic opus has spectacularly been performed in front of their gurning chops.
And in many ways it has ( fwa fwa dontchewknow). The scale of Mike Truman and Chris Healings’ production is vast and their use of orchestral strings over glossy breakbeats is a perfect example of typical Hybrid ostentation.
Their 4th album “Disappear Here” is forthcoming on Distinctive and they’re giving away the title track off the album over at the album blog http://disappearhere.info/ where you’ll find a hi res version of Break My Soul and also a instrumental version of the track. Register at their blog for download and updates.

This is the last recorded image of Meat Katie before he escaped from a maximum security school canteen.
Shortly after this press photograph was taken Mr Katie staged a daring escape that left 3 dinner ladies dead and a head teacher with a spork wedged in his eye.
He was last seen making good his escape across the school carpark but not before kicking the wing mirrors from the head of year’s Volvo estate.
