TRACKS OF THE YEAR
There are a few tracks.....



Agoria - Les Violons Ivres.
I found about Agoria this summer, and i was like "Wow....this is really dark and groovy". and this track is from his latest album "The Green Armchair". Vilolins gives really good accsent to this track. Very Beautiful Track.




The Postal Service - Nothing Better
I found about these guys by kind of an accident when i was downloading around but then i really liked these guys. Electronic Pop...well, its not a pop music but very easy to listen. Vocal is always great but also i really like these guys "Bass Lines".
P.S - this track is an another heart breaking song....


Roni Size - No More
I am not big fun of his DJ but he always makes good music. Lyrics with this song is great too. I also dont really like DnB MCs but with this track, Dynamite MC did a great MC. I was listening this tune before i quit a job @ hotel.



London Elektricty - I Remeber the Future
"I remeber the Future" it doesnt make sense at all if this is used by other gene but because its electronic music so thats why it is possible to do this i beleive. Yes, "I Remeber the Future!!!" I Really want to Dance with this tune. If I can do it....um...i think i will cry....



Mondo Grosso feat Bird - Life
Mondo Grosso is a very popular artist in Japan. He makes everything between Really Dancy tune to Really Chill Out stuffs. I really dont like "Pop" music because i beleive its just a commercial music and everything sounds the same, Singer just sings whatever producer already made which i reckon insnt an "Art". However stuff like this is really good because it is really good track and structures are great and Bird who did a vocal did a great job too. When I read his colum i really understand what he is trying to do. "I dont really like Pop music but if any of Pop funs listen this track and start getting into or have interest with elektronic music, i am very happy. On the other hand If People who always listen this song and realise there are some good pop taste music, i am also very happy". Exactally!!!! By the way Lyric is by Japanese....and its an awesome lyric. Its about "Past, Present, Future, Heart Broken, Love"


Nathan Fake - You are Here.
Really, this guy is a genius. He is only like 21 years old or something like that and made this kind of great music. This is not Dance Music at all. Its "Electronic Music" Thats all i can say. People often miss understand that i only listen dance music....but its not. I listen anything...but paticularly, I like "Electronic Music". When I heard this track i was like "This is why I love Elektronic Music". Very Emotional, Very Warm, Very Positive track. If You want to know, why i love Electronic music so much, This Track tells everything.
It is also interesting that James Holden picked him up. Genius knows Genius.


Joris Voorn - 500 Model
Joris Voorn has been my Idol since a few years ago, His sound has a lot of "Positive Vibe". I remeber when he played this track @ Digital Music Festival, i cried. He really changed the "Techno" as in no one used to make this kind of sound before.

ARTIST OF THE YEAR 2006 "Kilowatts and Vanek"





I heard these guys first time this summer from Mix up cd by Nubreed since and i liked it so i download song call "Lies" which is also brilliant song. Later on i found that these guys actually released album "Rawq" but there werent in any store so i searched on I Tune Music Store and i used I Tune Music Store for first time for this album.

Lyrics are great and melodys are cool and especially Noise they use are incredible. Many songs in Rawq are my broken heart songs too.
Really Highly Recommend to get it.

The Reason I Love Electronic Music.

I think there was a Robie Williams Concert @ Telestra Dome tonight....I am not exactlly sure but some peole were seeling Robie Williams T Shirt so, i beleive must be it. When I was walking from Souther Cross Staition to home, there were so many people at staition and streets. I think concert just finished. I was listening Carl Cox Live Set @ sound factory and i was really getting into music and i am more and more getting exciting with NYD.

Suddenlly on the way to home, i thought "I Love Electronic Music so much and like it than any other music!!" I mean, i always listen everything. Jazz, Blues, Reggae on and on and on...really everything, but the reason why i like elecronic music most is that, its different with someone singing a song. Song have a Lyric so that, whatever lyric say is the meaning of that song. For Exapmle, if song goes " I Love You......." "I Miss You...." that means "I Love You" and " I Miss You" so in the way, its easy to understand. However, with electronic music, beside Vocal Tracks, there are no singing and lyrics. Its made by many different sounds but there are meaning with a lot of tracks so its like "Telling Something with out singing." Um...its hard to explain with my writting skill.....but yeah, i love electronic music than any other music.

Well, Many Singers i want to see are already diead!!! 2 Pac, Bob Marley, Ray Charles etc!!!!

Check This Interview

“I think most superstar DJs are the ones who make the less effort,” he suggested, “They do not even buy records anymore and they play Final Scratch in order not to hurt their back.

“Or they proclaim ‘Ableton Creativity’ that rhymes with ‘I cannot be bothered with crate digging for the real gems” anymore”, he scoffed. “I have seen one very well know superstar turning at a gig with two CDs, with his whole set planned,” said Ivan, “Woooooooow! … I mean who is kidding who here?”

This superstar dj is sure still saying on media "ah, I love playing music." I can kind of guess who is that super star dj.

By the Way, today i would like to introduce my little brother in Japan...Miss him all the time.....

"I Love What I am Doing" by Carl Cox.

I watched his interview today and he was talking about how his careear start and on and on.....and he said that. you can watch that interviews and videos on www.carlcox.com. He used to carrying big sound systems in his van and driving to party to party. He wasnt even getting much money but the fact he was just doing what he loves and years later everyone start liking what he does.

If I look at myself now, i am just going to work, just do my work without any efforts. I realised today i cant put any more efforts with my job. I beleive time will come sooner than later. I dont like doing my work without Efforts and Passions. I would love to put efforts and being passionate with my job....and i used to but.....really......i cant do it anymore....

At the morment..."I hate what i am doing" However, one day i will change that to "I Love What I am doing" sonner than later.

Telling this first, This is a bit of my life story......but there are lot of inspiraitions involve.....

After work, went to my Friend's house after work and had a little big party till just before. There were many Professional Musicians. Well, many of them are playing in orchestra. One of girl told me that, what ever the music she listen, she can identify which code is that song or track made by. This is something i dont have, and there is nothing i can do from now on because of my age. They are playing music from 4,5 years old. Um....when i was 4,5 years old.....i was playing lots of sports......Well, i dont have any regret that i didnt pick music when i was kid but....i wish i had an orchestra music background. I never had a chance to talk and meet with classic music players so thats very nice to meet them and they are very cool peoples.....

At the morment, i am ripping some vinyls to my laptop. I love Digital Format!!! Well, i am still Analog Lover but Digital is more convinient at the end of the day...hehe.....

Todays work wont be a fun.....but.....ah well.....Life Goes On......

Thats Very Nice Little Big Night Indeed. I dont know but, i inspired a lot. :)

I Need to do something with my mixer!! Its a very sick now.....need good surgery......um.......IF this is Japan, all i need to do is bring my mixer to any music store and they will send it to Pionner but......in Aus i have to go to Pionner by myself etc.....well, i am not complaing about Aus at all.....but i just wish they do same thing with Japan in Aus......

Most of the time now days, all i think about is pretty much about music.......um......its same feeling with a few years ago...when i was playing around at clubs and parties.....but at that time, i was just playing "Dance Dance Dance" music and didnt know anything about industry etc.....but now, i play a lot more slower style of music. i learned things about industry etc....so what should i do....um......i just need "Guts" to push my self......

Recently, i start to play really dark style of music......its actually because i am confusing with a lot of things so obviously, music become darker than usual as well........i didnt like dark music before.....but now, i actually dont mind it.......because if i am sad, i am sad so i play dark and emotional tracks. On the other hand if i am happy, i am happy so i play positive and fun tracks.....When you are sad, you dont have to listen some happy music to try make yourself happy.....because it doesnt really works....when you are sad, may be its a bit hurt but you listen more sad and emotional music...to heal your pains.....Well, i am sure everyone is different but thats what i beleive.....

Um....maybe i am talking about my life story arent i??.....um......but still relating with music....so its ok isnt it?....

I offered or aproached to one of the party which held last night from a month a go but didnt work it out......yeah yeah yeah, so why did you asked me to play last year then?.....

Friday, December 08, 2006

Bought 2 Record yesterday. I am not at home now so i cant remeber the title and artists. I remeber one is Tiefshwarz remix. Ar least i remeber its minimal stuffs.

Also, i bought James Holden Album "The Idiots are Winning". It is an album of the year for me. Its sounds very Holden and its deep, minimal, and again, its very holden style.Its also sounds very depress......well, its a compliment. Highly Recommend to check it.

Really Want to fix my mixer.......its so pain in the ass!!!
