Bag Raiders VS Michael Jackson - Billie Punch (The Sounds Secret Stash Remash)

Don't You Want Me

I decided to finally remix this track as it's been something I wanted to do ever since I started doing what I do. It brings back childhood memories of discovering how to record onto tapes from the radio and then listening to it over again on my walkman on those long trips to my grandparents when mom and dad were too busy at work to look after me. A few decades later and this song is still with me, in spite of being all chopped up with a tad bit too much distortion and some weird haunting pan flute... See what happens when you leave kids alone too long?

Guys, this is a bootleg. And it's just for fun and a tribute to an all time classic. Hope you enjoy it as much as I enjoyed making it.

Crack In The Wall

Apologies for the lack of posts recently, it's been a festive holiday season with sun-filled days on the beach, visiting friends and family and travelling the country side with my better half, and to be quite honest, the last thing on my mind was sitting infront of a computer screen.

To start off the new year here is a fun party banger remix of Haezer's Crack In The Wall. Haezer's got some big stuff planned this year and I'd like to wish him all the best of luck!

aKing - The Dance Remix

November has been a quiet month on the production side, due to live shows, rehearsals, and a crushing workload at the office. New material, including remixes, mixtapes and own productions, is in the pipeline and will be receiving the necessary attention it deserves.

In the meantime, here's a "golden oldie", one of the first remixes I worked on for a great band and personal friends of mine, AKing. This remix is a bootleg (parts ripped directly from their Dutch Courage audio CD), but was later endorsed by the band and made available to the public for free. Please enjoy!

Dance Till Dawn

Friday was another amazing night at The Assembly! I deejayed the 10-12 slot of the Dance Till Dawn Discotheque party to a really amazing crowd. Thanks to everyone who stopped by the booth to say hi or give me the thumbs up.

To those that missed it, you can check out the pics on we-are-awesome.

Also, I've had quite a bit of interest in one of my mashups I've been playing, so I decided to post it. It's Bag Raiders VS Michael Jackson. Enjoy!!

Pictures

It's been an awesome weekend with Desmond and the Tutus! CoDeCvsTheSound had a really great response from the crowd to the Desmond and the Tutus remixes, especially at Klein Libertas in Stellenbosch. Thanks to everyone who came to support!


Desmond and the Tutus - Pictures (CoDeCvsTheSound Remix)

To those that missed out, I'll be DJing the 'Dance Till Dawn' Discotheque party at The Assembly tonight (Friday 4 Sept) from 10-12, followed by Bruce Willis and Markus Wormstorm.

Love Changes

Jono, Brett and I decided to lay down our latest track with the intent of using it for a possible music video later this year. Any producers interested in doing a remix please contact us for the seperates.

Tigerstrike - Love Changes

If you like the track please show Tigerstrike some love on MySpace or Facebook.
