Might be an idea for the Cricket World Cup organizers to use this track as their official song. Yea, right!
Not my favorite mix, but someone else out there might like it - yeah, after months of avoiding this mashup, I've finally succumbed to search engine pressure (rrrrright - hardly get any visitors here)...presenting 10cc's "Dreadlock Holiday" with the Drumattic Twins' "Start of Something" in "Start Of A Dreadlock Holiday". Only one dub. Listen, or download mp3.
This is a funny-ass version of Madonna's "Hung Up" in Spanish. Watch below...
Been listening to Enter Shikari, a British trance-rock band, or so they call these guys. Not a new concept, as much as the media would have you believe, but the sound is great. "Spawn" OST reborn.
Cow Tse Tung Sound System and MC Rasta D'Sasta present a brand new track, "Ox Fucked Graduate", a quasi-classic-goatrance track. Listen, or download free mp3.
Also contains the following samples of Fox Mulder and Dana Scully's voices respectively (from The X-Files):
"I was drugged."
"I don't trust you."
I don't have a great tale to tell this time around - the initial riff was something I thought I'd make into an ambient track. But the arpegiatted melody tempted me to introduce a classic Goa kick (which I can't get enough of), after which I couldn't set the Sytrus presets to my liking, and ended up with instruments more apt for a Eurodance track instead. No complaints though - I'm happy with the end result. Respect to my Jamaican alter-ego, who was responsible for ensuring we had some elements of dub even in a techno/trance track, MC Rasta D'Sasta.
Don't forget to check out INXS' latest single, "Never Let You Go". Its something Salmonella Dub would've released. But hey, its great to hear a track like this from INXS. I can see the late Michael Hutchence smiling from up above. Great track - love the dubby sound. Features my beloved former motherland, and subtitles in Hindi, besides Channel [V] (India) VJ, Sarah Jane Dias. Watch the video below.
Finally, I've managed to locate lost Indian rock outfit, Colourblind (a duo comprised of Ram Sampath on vocals, keyboards & drums and Siddarth Achrekar on electric & acoustic guitar & bass ) at long, long last. After years of being underground, they've made their tracks available at this location. Check out Blast and the self-titled single if you doubt the quality of their music. Siddarth talks of why the band split...
Once and for all let me clear some facts on this board as to why we never carried on doing what we did. We were rehearsing for a major tour and i had an ear complication. I busted my ear drum which got infected and went deaf for a month in one ear. The doc gave me 2 options. To carry on or risk going deaf permanently overnight in one ear. This is the reason why the Colourblind project was scrapped and which is why we never played live after that.Besides that many of us had other career responsibilities as well and none of us had forseen the album skyrocket in popularity. For us the whole project was a fun thing and not something that we could have built our lives around, especially in India. But it was fun while it lasted. Too bad we couldnt play live which would have been fun, but not all things happen the way they should. Maybe sometime in the future, who knows? Another album perhaps :)
