2009! A New Beginning!

Ok so as you know by now cos you are reading this, i have made a new years resoloution to write a regular blog keeping you all up to date with what is going on in my world from week to week.

why?

Two main reasons.... 1. to give you an insight of what life is REALLY like for an independant artist/entrepenuer and 2. To help me get my head around my hectic and sometimes out of control life! im sure that getting my frustrations aired and indulging myself in my ongoing achievements can only be a positive and thereputic process.

right so thats the why and you know the where cos your here so the only other question is when?

and the answer is basically whenever there is news of any kind in my life i will do a blog and keep y'all posted.

Last year (2008) was a really good year for me in the industry overall, i really feel that we (myself and my long suffering brother) achieved alot with the relaunch of Kronik Music and we made some really good new alliances within the scene. I also parted ways with all of the company's that i felt were not representing me properly as an artist which was a bold move, but also the right move for me at this time in my career. Last year the achievements were more than i hoped for and i feel that we laid some solid foundations to build on, featuring on the biggest compilations again was a good look even more so when my new track B.a.s.s.l.i.n.e. feat MC Neat was included on the PURE BASSLINE cd! look out for that this year it will be getting a full release through Nip N Tuck Recordings.

Some of the other things that made last year such a good one for me were the trip to Russia, that was an amazing expierience to represent UKG in a place like that, a very humbling booking that made me come over all patriotic! ha ha! Also the quote in DJ international magazine "one of the main inspirations for bassline" was extremely flattering! Then we come to the now legendary Kronik Music events in portugal which were totally off the hook and inspired me to relaunch the IT'S A LONDON THING events as a regular thing, last year there were 4 IALT events and each and every one of them was totally electrical! NEW YEARS EVE was alot! sorry if you were one of the 150 who didnt get in but we will be doing a payback party soon to make up for it in a bigger venue!

So thats it really a quick overview of last year!

This year i intend to work 100% harder! and play 50% harder!

LET'S KEEP IT MOVING!
