Thanks to my new friends at Street Off for stopping by Cafe 1001 in London to interview me for their documentary about the London dubstep scene. It was cool that our wee gig for K Mag was showcased among the massive FWD night at Matter. Also shouts to my gals Flight and Miss Pink and of course the legend that is Youngsta who also make an appearance while they’re working away selling dubstep vinyl at BM Soho.

This podkast is inspired by cinema / films / soundtracks.. I was hunting around for some samples for some of my tunes, and I came across this amazing Mashed in Plastic compilation /mashup with david lynch film and tv scores, dialogue from the films, and music. It’s amazing..I borrowed the intro which is in the podkast. Also having listened to ASC’s forthcoming album, Irrelevants tunes, and using many film samples for my own music..it really makes me think about how important music is to film and tv and vice versa. What makes me cry when I watch a scene in a film?….its not just the action but its also the film score. So this is my little tribute to all the music that brings what we watch come to life. And all the film quotes and music that inspire modern bass music. So for today this is the soundtrack to my life. I hope you like it. — AC
ps-there are more swear words that usual …because of some of the film dialogues I sampled! xx

Die letzten Tage sorgt kokeshi dafür, dass ich beim arbeiten nicht einschlafe. Das tut er mit .. DnB, Dubstep und.. jedenfalls sehr viel bass. bass mag ich.
Shouts to Colin and Rachel at K Mag for giving us the platform to do our thing..It was great to see Colin as I think the last time we saw eachother was maybe the Knowledge awards in Hammersmith..wow ages ago!
Thanks to Lung who trekked all the way from Cardiff to do his debut London set.. Thanks to Irrelevant who always supports Kokeshi and is so patient in waiting for his
releases on Kokeshi..soon come. Check his stuff out here …http://www.youtube.com/user/irrelevantsounds
I do love Cafe 1001 and it was nice to play there with the improved sound system and lighting.
Shouts to the guys yelling ‘Nicky Blackmarket’ while I was playing..always an ego boost to hear chants for other djs while you’re playing. Woot!
Kokeshi…we do our thing…
Bring on the next one!
thanks to our friends in the Ukraine..really cool site..: D

Electrified dubstep from Kiat & Alley Cat on Kokeshi. ‘Purple Clouds’ zooms Kraftwerk into a dubstep future populated by subbass shuddered zombies instead of robots, while ‘The Missing Channel’ plugs a billowing halfstep rhythm with robust melodies akin to sticking a naked battery on your tongue.

EXAMPLE MAGAZINE REVIEW
Kiat and Alley Cat make their first release on the Kokeshi imprint, delivering two undoubtedly bass laced dittys for us to grind our hips to.
Starting with A side “Purple Clouds”, the two combine to produce a wonderfully distorted electro-come-2-step beat, that drives the euphoric, glistening pads forward with ferocious aplomb. Swathing with sub bass and stylised glitch, the track’s grit underpins the very clean over head melodies, and helps create a glaring contrast but one that ultimately works.
The AA side is a solo outing from Singaporean, Kiat. “The Missing Channel” actually sounds like it has its roots firmly in 05/06 dubstep, with a delicious sub gliding at first beneath some arpeggiation, before being effortlessly guided by a pounding half step beat. Make no mistake, on a system of any note this one would be some “eyes down” business, at least until the glissando on the sub has smacked your head through the roof. Big beat.
Overall, it’s a tasty release. If you’re previous musical journey’s have taken in stalwarts such as Radioactive Man, Luke Vibert, or maybe more recently people like Tech Itch, then this ones a must for your bag.
