New Minimix: When I grow up..

Yet another mix done by me..

Is this any good?
No way.. It's even worse then the last one I did for this blog..
But I was pretty bored and I had to do something with my time so..


Length? About a half bag of really cheap nacho's.
Style? Crappy " electro-cheesy house " Again? Yes again..
Can I play this on my very expensive 30 gig- iPod again?
Definitely not... Just listen to this once, and then make sure you delete it from your harddrive to keep having enough free space.
Mixing Techniques? Even worse then the last time.
Tracklist?

Time to Sell Out the Kissy's..

**question from one of our blog readers:

"I'd like to know if he only remixes artists he likes (turning down those he doesn't), or if he sees remixes as a means of increasing his exposure.....some people would snobbishly say remixing All Saints is to.....er....sell out, whereas others would argue that it introduces their fans to a wider (better?) world of music. "

Good question. That remix is all about proving myself and saying what I think about dance music to whoever is up for listening to it - as are all my remixes. I wouldn't have touched All Saints if I thought it was bad song in the first place. And so I do indeed turn down remix offers quite regularly - although if I'm honest I get my manager to send the email because I don't want to hurt anyone's feelings! I don't think I really have a "Kissy Sell Out sound", I just have principles I stick to about what I like most in a song, like kick ass super fast melodies from Van Halen cds and Nickel Creek bluegrass cds, fat basslines like on live drum'n'bass tapes of Aphrodite and Mickey Finn I used to listen to at school, crunchy sprawling distortion from Sonic Youth's "Daydream Nation" album and doom music by Earth, Khanate and ofcourse Swans AND FINALLY I like the clarity of live instruments in experimental patterns and rhythms which I admire about James Holden, Coco Rosie, Sinden, Diplo, DFA, Felix Da Housecat's 3rd album and Scritti Politti.

So in conclusion to a overly long answer, if the cheeky essex boy obsessed with Bret Eastern Ellis books and collecting shit friday the 13th films gets the chance to tear up and rebrand a chart-topping pop group who would probably still turn him away from their vip champagne area - I say "FUCK YEAH BRING IT ON!" and if I accomplish all that and people still file it under "electro-house" I couldn't care less.


Can you live of what you earn with your productions and remixes?

Yes definitely - but only due to how hard I work myself. I only spend money on music, Gus Van Sant posters, my girlfriend, newcastle brown ale and second hand clothes from Camden market, so my life isn't mega glamourous but it's enough for me ;-)

When you start producing a new tune / remix how do your start? Do you analyze the original tune and then got inspired or start from scratch? How does the proces work?

I run straight through the samples looking for the hook - without properly analysing the original most of the time if I'm honest! Then the boring bit is reprocessing all the samples at a Kissy BPM - which is a nightmare for live tunes like my remix for The Dykeenies, and then I just get down to work and don't leave my studio until it's finished. I must admit that I definitely get "in the zone" when I'm working on a track, the only time I ever get grumpy is when someone phones during work. I've heard that Switch deals with this by going off the map for days on end - I'm thinking I might start doing that too haha!

Do you prefer to use hardware ( drumcomputers, synths) or vst's and software for your music, and if so.. which software do you prefer?

That's the only secret I'll ever protect about my music - mainly because, as far as I know, I don't use what everyone else does and I don't want people to find out how unprofessional my methods are haha! I don't know what a VST is?

Who / What are you main influences and what bands / artists you listened to when you was a teenager?

Scritti Politti's "Provision" album, Sonic Youth's "Daydream Nation", Smashing Pumpkins' "Siamese Dream" album, Swans ofcourse, ALL of Nirvana's albums - is it just me of has everyone forgotten about albums like "Bleach", "In Utero" and "Incesticide"?!? - Aphrodite and Mickey Finn, Ray Keith (who's from Essex hooray!), James Holden, the entire "Speed Garage Anthems" series, Joy Division, Simple Minds, The Cure, Robert Palmer, Klymaxx, The Church, Cocteau Twins, Smog, Shark Island, Bricklin, Winger...errr that's all I can remember for now!

What´s your opinion about the mp3 blogs popping out all over the internet... You think it's very illegal or do you think it's a great way to get hyped?

Great way to get hyped, all my remixes would be blogged by now if I had my way but no record labels would ever trust me again. Also blogging album tracks before the band's album has a set release date (like mine) can damage the chances of it ever getting released - so I don't really approve of leaking because you're not hearing what the band wanted you to hear - but apart from that it's "s'all cool" as they say in Brixton.


What´s your main goal.. Making a lot of money with your remixes/productions or just live a happy, healthy life.. What's your biggest ambition?

I've already reached my ambition really as I decribed in question 4, but I'm still desperate to have an album released which can be available to listen to all over the world - fingers crossed ;-)

Is there one producer / remixer / artist you admire and if yes, who and why?

Not really one in particular but maybe Green Gartside, James Holden and Aphrodite. I think people seem to miss the clear similarity between what Aphrodite was doing with samples 10 years ago and what myself, Duke Dumont, the Ed Banger team, the Solid Groove/Switch family of Sinden & Herve etc are doing now. That's why I keep sample cutting as an important ingredient in my mixes but try to move on with other aspects of a track like melody complexities for example.

Right now my new mates Nightmoves, Herve, Sinden and Duke Dumont are pumping out incredible stuff ;-)
