BEARD SLAP

Redundancy Hearing

2011-06-21T02:04:00.000-07:00

After 8 long years of busting my hump the time has come. I finally hit the jackpot and got redundancy. Whoop Whoop
A Summer off sounds pretty good I can tell ya!
In honour of this momentous occasion I had a few cheeky beers and wrestled with the wheels of steel. Not sure who came out on top.
The mix starts with some chunky Hip-Hop including the legendary Beastie Boys, remixes from A-Skillz, Xzibit and a great country cover of 99 Problems. Then pick up the pace with some modern classics from Toddla T, Adam Freeland, Wagon Christ and a wicked remix of Gravel Pit by Max Smart. The last half hour is dedicated to Drum & Bass with all the big tuneage from last summer including Breakage, Sub Focus, Danny Byrd and Die.
Blow the speakers

Sunny side up

2011-05-11T16:25:00.000-07:00

The recent sunshine and good weather has really lifted my mood. I frickin love the summer.
Realise I should just hibernate when it is cold and dark.
Here's some tunes that are always guaranteed to brighten my mood. Artists featured include Outkast, Afro-Cuban All Stars, YesKing, Nextmen, LTJ Bukem, Nostalgia 77 featuring Alice Russell, London Elektricity.
Nice it Up

Phoenix from the Flames

2011-05-11T15:16:00.000-07:00

Like the walking dead we are back, smelling funkier than an athletes jock strap. Welcome back one and all.
Solo mission from Bretty for the foreseeable future. My partner in crime is doing time.....at teacher training college. Big Respect to T Bickle - he'll be back with his own brand of style sooner than soon.
To the music - been feeling some of the new dubstep direction. Kind of a mixture of bass, early 90's synths, samples from way back when and garage vibes.
Thrown some of my favorite vinyl together for your listening pleasure featuring the likes of James Blake, Ramadaman, Pearson Sound, MJ Cole, Jamie XX, Breakage etc
Will stick a full track listing up when it's ready
Peace out Beardslapers

2011 - We are back

2011-04-29T11:58:00.000-07:00

Been a long time coming but Beard Slap has been resurrected - like a phoenix from the flames. Had to make a few changes to get things up and running - think all the glitches have been ironed out. New Muzac coming soon!
