Aaron Carl R.I.P




One of my favourite house singer & producer has died... We didnt know he had cancer until a few days ago, when he announced it... First he got very ill due to a lower bowel inflammation (i even emailed him last week when he got hospitalized) and had to cancel his forthcoming European Tour... Im truly gutted and sad 2day... We lost a true Soul Legend & a great human being... Aaron Carl Rest In Peace & carry your journey brother ...

Upnorth Love

Always love travellin' & playin' upnorth, peeps are warmer then in UK's capital & usually ready to party haaaaaaard yooooo... Massive thanx to Bruce Q in Birmingham who showed his cookin skills, was gr8 2 c Colonel Red aka Redz in da building & catch up a bit wid him. Beane's party in Nottingham saturday nite was fantastic, Charles & i played some serious deep house shizzle but dropped many disco/boogie joints & hiphop & soul & latin & more goodies to a wonderful crowd, really felt good in that Moog joint (despite a very dodgy equipement...!). Charles missus Kaori also cooked some amazin pizzas so i guess that inspired us too thru our musical selection haha :-) ,
got 2 Manchester last nite & hooked up wid Chimpo (bad ass dubstep producer), in 3hours we layed down a nice little 134 bpm joint, might actually test it 2nite @ the Hit & Run party with Mala, Jakes & Deadboy... Should be fun !

Marseille was gr8 too, spent 2 days mainly makin music in da studio wid my bro Julien Lourau (nice upcomin project !!!) and missed da Radio Grenouille gig and radio slot, my bad on that 1 sorry guyz, u know we'll still make it happen nxt time, props to Patrick & John, Stephan, Gala & Abel... Right about now just got back from Annecy (pretty city by a lake & Alps mountains), played @ the Ruby Club for the Superfriends party and that was really nice, many friends from school drove over from far to come 2 da party, so gr8 2 c da old faces yeeeeeeees thnx to all who made it, especially Alix, Jeff, Guillaume, Philippe, Gloria, Manu & Frankito & Gerald (dope djs), Fafa and every1 else i missed...
