Et Justus Pout Tous

I was reading the new Malcom Gladwell book, Outliers, recently. It’s about how environmental factors play an important part in the success of people we commonly refer to as geniuses… whilst it hardly discredits the talents of Billy Gates et al, it’s an interesting read that suggests that the unbelievable achievements of some are perhaps [...]

Tales From My Inbox…

I’ve kind of been neglecting my posting duties recently, which is a bit shit… I’d hoped to get back in the swing of things with an uber-lazy post of the decent things that landed in my inbox over the past few days. Sad times, though, when I found that I haven’t really been sent [...]

Esau Mwamwaya + Radioclit are ‘The Very Best’

Casper C Mix

I was lucky enough to have Casper send over a mix the other day, and I figured I’d share it with you guys. You’ll probably know him from the blog-behemoth that is Fluokids or Adventures In The Beetroot Field, who’ve helped to break everyone from Klaxons to Crookers.
The mix itself is definitely one for the [...]

Stopmakingme Mix

Just a quick little post…
I’ve asked a few people to contribute mixes to my other blog, TechnoJihad and I was lucky enough to get this little beauty from Stopmakingme. It’s absolutely awesome, as you might expect from the Kill Em All/AITBF/Fabric regular, one to get on the D/L for sure.
As Dan himself says, ‘I’ve been [...]
