The Best Dance Radio Station IN THE WORLD!!

2011-05-15T07:50:00.000-07:00

I'm unsure if you are aware but I play music on a station called Kick Radio. If you haven't heard of it, well then, it's a darn good thing you're reading this, because you've been missing out. Kick Radio is the best dance radio station IN THE WORLD, I tell you what.

And I'm not just saying that because I play on there every Sunday. No, not because Kick Radio is a United Kingdom based site where my show is LIVE at 8pm to 9:30pm(their time)making that from 2pm to 3:30pm Winnipeg time, that Kick is amazing, no, not because I play incredibly good music every week that's not why. And it's not the finest radio station online because I've been with the station about 3 years now, and it's hard to believe I was one of the first to ever play on the station, I have so many fond memories and there are always good times abound for me chatting with everyone. And it's not the most awesome online broadcaster because Kick Radio DJ's host international guest mixes and guest appearances from around the world, from the likes of Pleasurekraft, Rainer Weichhold, Tube & Berger, Jay Lumen, Boy George, Fedde Le Grand, Judge Jules,Serotonin Thieves, Phaeleh, Tomcraft and many more, nope, that's not the reason it's the most amazing internet based dance radio station.

The reason Kick Radio is the most high qualtiy and fun site to get your Jungle, Dubstep, Trance, Techno,House, Breaks, Indie Bands, Electro and all shapes and forms of EDM is because it is the only station where you can come on any night/day of the week and hear amazing tunes played by some of the nicest and most unique DJ's anyone has ever heard! Oh and we love to yak your faces off with our new and improved KICK RADIO CHATROOM in a fully interactive experience which includes web cam options, just enter your username and log in, and allow your cam, just be sure you turn your mic on mute so we can hear just the amazing music from our Kick DJ's and their guests, no password or membership to the site needed to come chat just get in!

My DJing info from my Kick Radio profile page:

Age: 31
Sex: Chick
Country of Origin: Canada

Djing stuff :

Favourite genre(s): House, Breaks, Trance and Jungle and everything in between.
Time DJing: 6 years, 4 out of the bedroom
Type of DJ: Online Radio, Clubs and Parties

Equipment used : Sony Vaio Laptop, Traktor Scratch Pro, Two Technics turn tables, Numark mixer, a Sony microphone, Sony Headphones and a desktop pc:)

Day:Sunday
Time:8-9:30pm GMT
What do you play?: Anything I want, mainly house and breaks all kinds.
Mic Y/N:Oui.

Realizing in 1995 that the music coming from the underground was what would bring life to the night for years to come, I became a EDM junkie. I find myself spinning a diverse range of genres including House, Breaks, and Progressive(whatever that is). My desire to work the tables and supply the chunky beats, driving bass lines, symphonic riffs and hypnotic vocals started the very first time I saw a DJ throw it down.

Attending events in Winnipeg for the past 15+ years has made me crave bringing music to the masses more and more, until finally in June of 2006 I took the plunge into the art of spinning wax. I also love to dance and support the local scene and international culture every chance I can get. I have played out for the wicked Winnipeg crowds for 4 years, thanks to the Winnipeg promoters who helped get my foot in the door and all those who allowed and continue to allow me to rock the dance floors, it's been a great experience each and every time. I think everyone should listen to a Dj drop the fresh tracks, it will feed your compulsion, get you inspired and set your soul on fire.

Feel free to check out my sets every Sunday 2pm CST NA/8pm GMT UK on Kick Radio, or Berb's Soundcloud

Walking Home

2010-11-18T09:12:00.000-08:00

Lately I've been walking home from work it's about 4km walk which takes about an hour, exactly the same amount of time it usually takes to take the bus, and just as cold as waiting for buses. Plus I get exercise and to try out the theory that I can loose weight by not working out too hard but by being consistent and doing some every day.

I'm excited for Alyson's birthday cocktail party this weekend, going to go shopping Friday for something pretty to wear, I will be wearing it at my office staff party too, hooray for double duty outfits. Going to dye my hair as well, it needs to be more red I think.

Life's been pretty good lately other than the fact that I cannot get the new microphone I purchased for my radio show working with Traktor Scratch Pro, it's one of those techy woes I just can't figure out and for all my google expertise I can't find help with the solution. If anyone can offer insight that would be fantastic.

I will be working on 2 new mixes over the next few days so keep an eye out for those one is a deeper more techy mix and the other is full on fun!

Girl:Exploded by Lauren Zuniga

2010-11-04T13:17:00.000-07:00

Amazing poem. What does it feels like to be a girl? It feels horrible have someone tell you because you like to wear high heeled shoes, lipstick or a dress sometimes you are not a feminist, that you are being played by society and are convinced to play the harlot by the patriarchy.

That you are a victim and you can't make any of your own choices because they have all already been made for you. So "man up", you have to be ugly and dress like a man and hide your breasts and wear sensible shoes, to be a feminist, I just want to be able to be sexy sometimes and to feel beautiful and to be sensible sometimes and accepted regardless how I look and I want equal pay and to enjoy sex for the enjoyment of it. I want to be free to be me whatever I want to fucking be that day, that would feel great!

2010-10-06T14:17:00.000-07:00

Ok so I'm not sure I've admitted this here, but I assume it's probably obvious by the fact that I am a girl, I play video games, I love science/learning and I DJ that I'm a huge geek. I received some WOW related mail in my inbox today, in the form of a teaser and website link for the new expansion for World of Warcraft called Cataclysm, due out on December 7th 2010. I just wanted to say I am extremely excited for it because as of late, the current release is getting to be yawn worthy.

Yeah yeah I'm a nerd. Check out the trailer though, you know you want to come play with me, hee hee.

Another Year Older

2010-09-14T17:03:00.000-07:00

As I approach my birthday I've been having a lot of memories from when I was a young child. Some strange, like remembering a drive our family took when we moved to Manitoba and some serene, a blissful vision of a meadow with horses on a warm summer day.

I've been thinking about spirituality and art a lot lately too. Watching mad amounts of documentaries. I suggest this site pretty good selection gets updated often topdocumentary films Also thinking about creativity of people too, thinking about intellectual property and street art. Artistic ability and creativeness, it seems to me that some just have those traits and others do not. Same with spirituality, you either subscribe to the notion of a soul or God or Mother Earth or you do not, or perhaps about both things we are all just a bit confused? I would even go one further and say were all confused about everything.

It's kinda like the jury is out, humanity as a species are having growing pains from all this consumer culture and technology and from a disconnect of sorts. I guess I describe it as feeling separated from nature and desiring expression of "real" emotions, wanting so badly to "believe" in something or to truly create something. I think that is a huge part of what we as humanity has to hold onto, finding the beauty and reverence for nature and keeping grounded in this day of lightning quick information and the cyber world at the press of a button.

Going to leave you with a couple poems today they seemed fitting.

Zero and One

Zero, the cipher is the negative, nothing
One, the unity is the existence, all
Limitless Ocean of nothing
Existence does not evolve from a center
For it is center less, the nothing
It concentrates itself a center, which is existence
All, Unity, One
Heaven is in the earth and earth is in the heavens
Incapable of description
Because we started with one there must then be two
We evolved One from Zero
And in the image of oneness made a reflection of itself
We now have the commencement of vibration
The Primordial Point
Between existence and nothing
Although the idea of nothing is nothing
Began the outward glance
The heavens as they shine on earth
Angelic order
Sphinxes, apocalypse
One and one made two
Nothing, then man and then woman
Trinity
Woman is equal with man a reflection of one another
Great father and great mother
Together receptive and transmitting
Bringing into existence love or mercy
Next evolved strength and justice
Beauty and mildness by the union of mercy and justice
We created firmness and victory reflecting the gods
The brilliant ones
Those graced,
Angelic
And from this advanced the foundation
The flame
The kingdom both feminine and receptive
And masculine or transmitting
With regard to the hidden influence
Like a magnetic pull of two mirror opposites
Balance
Each trinity is a dual of opposite
Sexes and unity, intelligence
The result is Libra two scales of balance
A great beam of light unites them
The heavenly and earthly entities
The sun, the moon
Finding numeration, constellations
Giving birth to geometric
The wheel
The commencement of whirling motion, spinning
Spirals, triangles, spheres
The galaxy Premium Mobile
Sphere of the Zodiac
Saturn, Rest
Righteousness, Jupiter
Intense strength, Mars
The solar light, the Sun
Glittering splendor, Venus
The stellar light, Mercury
And so on through the stars
The lunar flame, the Moon
The breaker of foundations, the elements
Archetypal man, Protogenos
Many worlds were created and destroyed
Until there was born a perfect world,
Three different dimensions
Each with a descending scale of brightness
First the world of creation, purest in nature, intellect
A world without matter, only being
Then the moral world, soul
The world of angels, a world of formation still without matter
Next came the material world, body
The world of action, of shells, made of elements
Mystery revealed and concealed
The place made for understanding

The Berbster

This is a work in progress of some ideas I've been mulling over. Please let me know if there is anything I could do to make it better. Peace.
Written December 21st, 2003

My Belief System

What is this place? Bumpin' atoms within the vast space,
The real in all we see yet cannot know,
but with the minds eye everything comes clear,
like music ringing in ones ears,
a beating of hearts,
the cosmic rhythm.

All stretching and recoiling,
growing children losing innocence,
shrinking elders yearning for the lost.

The want for other souls to swim with,
floating, traveling, expanding existence, together.
Through a sharing of these electric type energies conveyed in this part of each living thing.

This desire to be at peace,
what is this perception of soul?
This ultimate and infinite need to know the source of this energy,
to reunite with it for sanctuary.

To know for certain what one is.
That is for each soul to uncover and rediscover,
through every moment,
every day spent sharing, giving, taking, listening, talking, touching, feeling, learning, teaching and the greatest knowledge of it, loving.

In these things lies the purpose,
exploring ideas, evolving the species.
Through sharing ideas and making peace.
In every action one takes with another living thing,
we are all bound to one another.
In every encounter we affect each other, no matter how brief.

Bumpin' and grinding atoms, pure energy,
defined light and although still within the physical,
understanding the great scheme of all life metaphysically.

One must become a master of essence, asking the right questions. However words or thoughts alone have no meaning without emotion, and feeling behind them, life is hollow and empty without it.

Seek with your whole self, seek to become whole, leave nothing unexplored, for the bliss that comes when we feel the connection to the universe and understand the force which holds it all together is found within all of us.

The Berbster

Ok I have a confession today, I was on Twitter too much and became slightly addicted to tweeting and following tweets, I need to know my boundaries yet I had a productive day finding interesting people, artists, producers, museums, companies and other interest related profiles on an insane array of subjects. I enjoyed it.....a bit too much.

Anywho confession is over, just thought you should know I'm on my way to becoming a #twitteraddictanonymous but hopefully I won't check Twitter at 3am after going to the washroom, remember kids, everything in moderation.

Also I need something fun to do for my birthday, getting drunk will probably be involved since I'm such a light weight now, kinda want to buy a vintage dress do Ray and Jerry's, hmmmm.....decisions decisions.

Oh and if you like twitter feel free to follow me http://twitter.com/DJBerbs mmhmm and if you don't like twitter, that's ok I won't hold it against you.

Black Swan Official Trailer

2010-08-18T14:12:00.000-07:00

Amazing new film with Actors Natalie Portman, Mila Kunis, Winona Ryder, Vincent Cassel and director Darren Aronofsky, it has dance and sex with a side of horror, can't wait, definately have to see it in theater. Thanks to http://twitter.com/tinydaniela for the heads up.

Synopsis:
BLACK SWAN follows the story of Nina (Portman), a ballerina in a New York City ballet company whose life, like all those in her profession, is completely consumed with dance. She lives with her retired ballerina mother Erica (Barbara Hershey) who zealously supports her daughter's professional ambition. When artistic director Thomas Leroy (Vincent Cassel) decides to replace prima ballerina Beth MacIntyre (Winona Ryder) for the opening production of their new season, Swan Lake, Nina is his first choice. But Nina has competition: a new dancer, Lily (Kunis), who impresses Leroy as well. Swan Lake requires a dancer who can play both the White Swan with innocence and grace, and the Black Swan, who represents guile and sensuality. Nina fits the White Swan role perfectly but Lily is the personification of the Black Swan. As the two young dancers expand their rivalry into a twisted friendship, Nina begins to get more in touch with her dark side with a recklessness that threatens to destroy her.

Being 747's Amoeba To Zebra - Chapter 5: Shake Your Backbone

2010-08-16T10:34:00.000-07:00

Great video from the band Being 747 who make awesome science/evolution tunes with video's, click the video to check out more from them but they tickled my fancy with this tune about shaking your back bone, cos everybody's got one :)

2010-08-13T08:41:00.000-07:00

Life is good, been neglecting my blog here for nearly a year, a conversation with a new friend has got me back to it, and I'm needing an outlet for sharing my thoughts as well as my art and music interests. I find for myself if I keep a blog I am more apt to look for new media to share on it and though I'm always on the lookout, I'm going to make a habit of adding new content to this blog daily. As well as start up my music chart again and post my own creations in the form of art, writing and poetry as well.

My life has been evolving as of late. I've made a conscious effort towards healthy living, eating properly and working on my fitness, already after only a little more than two weeks I am feeling and looking better I think I have lost around 3-5lb so far. I am buying a scale this weekend to keep up with my progress but my size 16 pants are already fitting slightly looser. This has come from PhillyD the Youtube vlogger, you can check out his regular channel's sxephil video's http://www.youtube.com/user/sxephil and vlog http://www.youtube.com/user/PhilipDeFranco here, so yea mad props to him for getting me out of my couchpotato/potato chip loving ways and onto a new healthier and hopefully 125lb/size 10 me.

Another change I'm making is that I proposed to my partner of 9 years, we are having a tiny wedding/reception with mainly family in the fall of 2011. But the big excitement is going to come from our engagement party at Connect Festival 2011 where we are inviting everyone we know and love to come take part in a 4 day "we're getting hitched" extravaganza out in Saskatchewan, next summer.

For our social(for those of you who don't know what that is, its a mixer where we make profits from selling tickets and alcohol to fund a portion of the wedding generally the only place to have them is Manitoba so thats a perk of living in this Province, hooray for a party and money!) it will be in the spring shortly after tax season so we can fund it and raise the monies needed for the Connect Festival partying with friends and the wedding in the fall with family/friends.

Just wanted to share a poem for my first back at it entry here as it seemed fitting.
Believe
Every thing happening in my life right now somehow seems different.
I realise I am in control of my own destiny.
Like I have the power to make what I want to happen, happen.
You feelin' me?
The wait is over.
Free your mind and your ass will follow.
Is this a nightmare?
No a dream.
Somethings just are, but it is you who chooses how these things are seen,
with the minds eye.
See it.
Believe.
I have the ability to feel, act like, be my true self.
Honest to my innermost person.
Soulist.
Listening and speaking with that part.
If you feel that something is right go with it.
I you feel that something is wrong fight it.
Never compromise your true self.
I feel so full of optimism its a nice and needed change.
So many options.
Take me away.
Whatever will be will be.
I keep learning so much about myself and my world.
I've become so strong.
I am beautiful.
I am wicked.
I am good.
I am who I really am.
I am me.
Because I am a mother, a daughter, a sister, a lover, a partner,
because I am a soul.
'I am in awe of the woman I am becoming.'

Thanks for reading. I look forward to sharing with you if you stay tuned in and turned on to what I'm doing here. I look forward to reading what you have to offer also, so please link your blogs/music/art/writing/poetry in the comments section and I will always return the favor of a comment. Cheers DJBerbs aka Berber aka Amber.

Feel free to follow me on Twitter http://twitter.com/DJBerbs and/or Youtube http://www.youtube.com/user/DJBerber I will be adding more videos currently there are only 2.

Yea so thats it for today, hopefully I will post a bit tomorrow:)

2009-03-27T07:03:00.001-07:00

Oi I've been delinquent about posting to my blog here, I find it super easy to browse for hours on the net for info or even just "brain candy" but to get myself in here to blog about things, well its not easy for me to say the least. I am making a resolution to myself to try to blog just a little bit every day, just some thoughts about what is going on in my life and whatnot.

I had my consultation appointment about my extraction of 9 teeth, 7 upper and 2 lower so have my oral surgery booked for April 7th so I will be off work for two days that week, I will need the time to recover properly then I get to go out on the 10th for the monthly Crown Productions event called Weird Science Hugo who will be playing live:) super stoked to be able to go out after recouping from my surgery, it will be some much needed fun.

It's snowed here again, crazy amounts of snow. I was out in the wind and snow waiting for a buss and was cursing at the weather, as I had to wait FOREVER for the buses which were running nearly an hour behind, I must have looked nuts screaming at the wind but it upset me that we are back in the depths of winter, literally, the snow is knee deep and the wind is harsh and cold, I had to tell the universe I was unhappy, I just couldn't accept it, haha even though there is really nothing I could do but yell:p

Today is Friday, I am finally getting my teeth dealt with and I have a job so I can pay for fixing my teeth so those are things I am thankful for:)

Letting Go

2009-01-26T10:27:00.000-08:00

Ok so I just wanted to share a bit of something here, mainly the fact that humans are insane, yep you heard me right, myself included. The vast majority of people are so wound up in their own plight and selfishness, their egos if you will, they can't realize they are harmful to themselves, other people and the planet. They can't come to this realization mainly because their opinions/thoughts/feelings are what they perceive to be who they are, and when your opinion is you, you can't and don't want to see other sides of things or even see it realistically, which is to say without your own interests in mind, because the ego sees this as a threat.

I know what your thinking, why should you right, well here's the thing, humanity is in a deep rut of selfishness and egoic thinking/feeling and its causing a horrid me against the world approach in which unless we personally identify with something, we perceive it to be against us. This in turn makes the world out to be this nasty place that causes us fear, insufficiency and lack. When you are in a constant state of satisfying the ego's needs you are constantly defending it's survival and in that action you are giving out terrible closed energies, negative vibrations on all levels.

Now its very very hard for people to be awake to what the ego is doing, the ego is sneaky, as soon as it feels threatened it becomes defensive and will lash out or pity itself, so that is why it is very hard to say to someone who is strongly possessed by their ego that this is what is going on. When you let go of feeling you have to be right, let go of feeling you have to have what you want, let go of thinking that someone/something else is causing your problems, you are open and receptive and the ego no longer has control over you.

Genesis NYE Dec 31 2008 Panteges Playhouse Theatre

2009-01-06T06:19:00.000-08:00

Here is a pic of me spinning at Genesis on the main stage. It was a blast. I love playing records for people, seeing them smile and groove is such a fantastic feeling. I really want to get into producing so I can make a career out of making people dance, it's a dream and a goal I want to bring to fruition very much. I believe dancing is good for your soul, your mind and your body. I had such a good time at the party, dancing, blabbing to strangers and just generally feeling good and positive. I really enjoyed the sets from Disco Kitty, Deko-ze, Marco G, Smooths and of course Frankie Bones. I think he had a good time playing for the Winnipeg crowd, they were havin' it, that's for sure. I'm sure Crown pulled some decent numbers for the turn out even though the night was snowy and cold, it was warm and inviting in the party. Everyone seemed to be out in true New Years spirit.

I've been trying to focus on the positive in life a lot more recently and having Crown choose me to play made me so much more positive. I've been really relaxed and easy going lately. Trying very hard not to get emotionally worked up about things. It's helping me feel a better inner sense of joy than that is derived from what is on the surface of immediate emotions and thoughts. I've been reading the book the Power of Now - Eckart Tolle and it is really opening my eyes, even more so than his other book A New Earth, both are fantastic and I think everyone who is looking deeper should read them. Even if you don't follow his ideology you will take something away from it be it common sense about human interactions or many of the other insightful observations and instruction he provides. I will be picking up his third book when I finish this one.

I've been having wonderful thoughts about where I want to be taking the direction of my life, making music, touring, making people dance. Creating more art. I also get to go to a wonderful party in July on Victoria Island BC here in Canada called Soundwave, I urge everyone to go, as I've heard it's a fantastic 3 day outdoor electronica/dance event, that is unmatched in vibe and caliber of artists. I am extremely happy to have the chance to see that part of the country as well as it is some of the most beautiful in the country. Here is a link for the festival, it should be updated for this year's event soon: http://soundwavemusicfestival.ca/

I'm so stoked to go, its a gift from my mom to send me there for my 30th Birthday, I think she is effected by the fact that her oldest child is 30 this year. She is super proud of what I have done with my DJing, she is very supportive and I love her for that.

Hope you all had wonderful New Years and fantastic holidays! Here's to living in the moment and making the very best of it.

Busy Busy Busy, WoW, My New ZUNE and MY New MIX

2008-08-26T09:44:00.000-07:00

Oh me oh my I've been a very very very busy lady this past couple months, and alas have not blogged in quite some time now. I've become addicted to WoW too, which really doesn't help things much, it's a full time job on top of my actually full time job, my sisters and one of their bf's and I have been playing together and its quite fun but entirely too time consuming.

A few weeks ago I received the Microsoft Zune as a part of a promotion done by Matchstick, I just have to say it is the best media player I've ever owned, it actually does compete and I think out performs the iPod. I've been asked about it numerous times while using it, the most common question is "hey what is that??" Then I would go into my shpeal about it and people seemed genuinely interested but wondered why they had never heard of it before, perhaps some catchy commercials like the ipod has would be a good move to spread the word, use DJ's or dance music artists(hint hint). It's a slick lil player that doesn't fail to impress the average techno geek, and the versatility really makes people interested when I've shown them the features or let them mess about with it, I suggest it to anyone in the market for something different.

I liked that I can burn music from my CDs to my heart's content and sync them to the Zune. I can sync non-protected MP3s and AAC files and import my iTunes library and playlists. I can purchase songs from the online Marketplace, either by tune or by album and the price varies, though most songs are around one dollar, which I find a bit steep, because realistically I could go to the real store and buy the CD for the same price. The Marketplace, for better or worse, uses the points system rather than dollar values so you buy blocks of points and use those to buy tunes. You can also buy a $15/month all you can eat subscription that allows you to download as much as you like and keep it as long as you continue to pay the monthly fee. I put mainly DJ mixes on it and it works far better than my Sony ever did for that purpose I haven't run into one single issue with it not syncing what I had added to it. It also plays video and holds photos, so its a very versitle player.

The Zune looks like a nice pieces of hardware, it's light, has scratch resistant glass and a nice sized LCD color display. The look and feel is almost identical to Apple's first second generation Nano in my opinion. The Zune has large modern fonts which I found so much better than on any others I had seen and used. You navigate menus by sliding or applying little pressure in the four directions and select items by pressing down on the on the middle pad. The navigation control, which is dubbed the 'Zune pad', was initially a little difficult to get used to but after a few minutes of scrolling around and searching through different categories, it became apparent that the Zune peeps knew what they were doing when they designed it.

This player seems to be a heavy contender with other comparable MP3 players out there. I think it will attract those seeking more than the standard features found on the third-generation Apple iPod Nano, which before I received my Zune was my next logical purchase. and now I would suggest it over the iPod to anyone in the market for a mp3 player, the only thing it seems to be missing is an equalizer, which it is in desperate need of, for us bass heads.

Banter on Beats

2008-06-18T09:42:00.000-07:00

1Ane Brun - Headphone Silence (Henrik Schwarz Remixes) - Objektivity 12"
Unique, interesting lyrical style over catchy melodies with almost progressive sounds and highly addictive deep funky house beats(dixon version). Slightly more bumpin for the second remix, keyboard is more predominant with less emphasis on the vocal, yet showcasing its simple interesting style at the same time letting the more funky soulful vibe come though(dz noisy version)

2Mood II Swing - Closer (Fred Everything & Olivier Desmet Remix) - Amenti 12"
Original came out in 1994, this is the reissue for 2008 updated and remastered, it's a dancefloor filler of saxy smooth classic 90's house, every funky dj should invest in this hot wax, which has seen plays from the usual suspects including Farnia.

3Digitalism - Jupiter Room(martian assault mix) - Kitsune 12"
Came out in 2006 and hasn't lost any of it's original edginess over the past two years, still as relevant as when it came out, this remix is electro madness, a lil ditty that starts off funky then gets in your face, showing why Digitalism made it so big.

4Marcus Kaes, Remixes By Dapayk, Groove Rebels, Erdbeerschnitzel - Roboto - Alles Kaese Schallplatten 12" Tech house at its very very best, funky and doesn't take its self too serious, bumpin and fun with unique sounds and groovin rythem, all around great bass line. All mixes take a different stance but retain that excellent fun funky vibe while keeping the minimalists interested.

5Cirez D - Stockholm Marathon / The Journey - Mouseville 12"
Techno flavored electro house from the man Cirez, progressive yet techy, pulsating Stockholm Marathon delivers a right perfect peak hour, lets get down to business track, with a great synth in the melody that drags it along. Second track The Journey brings more commercial sensibility that we have come to know an love from him, has a great build in the start of the track, it retains an electro vibe, it's techy and funky with a somewhat progressive and techno feeling as well, repetitive vocal is utilized to excellent ends, with nice high pitched sounds for added interest.

6Jimpster, Remixes By Joris Voorn, Audiomontage - Dangly Panther - Freerange 12"
Simply brilliant original, the very best deep house, great use of timing, elements and funky flavor, released earlier this year. Remixes by Voorn, a slightly less deep more funky tech house slant with an incredible build that should be heard, taking the original and getting it ready for the club, with progressive melody loveliness and Audiomontage with a slightly less emphasised bass line and straight forward micro progressive tech in the melody and hook, sexy tune, any of the mixes would be an excellent addition to a more mellowed out house set.

7Let's Go Out, Remixes By Massi DL, Ivan Smagghe & Tim Paris - I'll Lick Your Spine - Remixes - Soma 12" If you like your electro sounding like tech house this number is for you the Massi DL mixes are quite nice, more serious than the title indicates, its moody progressive kinda dark but funky, and the vocal is a whisper. Second mix is micro tech house with a nice blend of the vocal and a ticking along rhythm. Tim Paris does a nice remix with a deep grooving tech vibe, mellow warmer track with a less serious side.

8Bob Marley, Remix By Dread Poet - Could This Be Love - Poet 12" Jacking funky electro tech house with a classic Marley vocal, keeping everything excellent about the original and making a perfect summer dance floor filler. Second side is a rip roaring bassline fest, cutting and techy with an almost dance punk feel, yet retaining its funkiness, think Switch style remix, would do well for those faced with a summer patio set at peak hour.

9MGMT, Remixes By Markus Krieger - Time To Pretend - White 12" I love MGMT, they have such an excellent electro pop sensibility and these Markus Krieger remixes do the track justice and make it something just down right good with a grooving, electro club house feel, that would be perfect for those more commercial floors.

10 Boy 8-Bit - Ghost House (Suspense Is Killing Me Pt II) - Mad Decent MP3, I just couldn't pass up including this killer track even tough its release to vinyl is not available till next week, breakbeat is infectious and catchy without the hook or rhythm, but once those elements come into play this track gains everything it needs to be a complete listening pleasure, changes the line and adds interest in fun funky ways, as it moves along, simply amazing sampling and synth work from the original with high end noises, 8-bit is poised to take the world by storm.

Ok so I've been completely deficient in posting to this here blog, I know I know I said I would love it, take good care of it, feed it but alas I haven't, I know I know BAD Berbster. This is entirely due to the fact that I've been trying, desperately to figure out just what the hell the purpose of this thing is here, first I started it to vent about life and stuff but I've been finding way less to vent about lately, in fact I've had so little fodder to post about I've not done it in, what 3 months,so were gonna go through a mood swing of sorts and this blog will now be music, art, literature, political, commentary on whatever I want pretty much. Gonna show my support of the musicians, artists and writers I've been interested in as of late, weekly there will be a Electronic Dance Music chart which I will post at the end of this one.

Well its been a while since I blogged. Things at work are pretty hectic and since I do my blogging at work I haven’t had the time. It’s our fiscal year end this month and I’ve been working my little typing fingers to the bone, so many work orders, I’ll be really glad tomorrow that November is over with and hopefully they will find my replacement so I can finally move into my new position and start making decent money.

Home is pretty good lately, C is working a day shift all month so we’ve been having a lot of time together, which is really nice, it’s like I asked for more time with him and I got it, Thinking Mans Babe, you’re right, LOA works.

I got my hair cut much shorter, just above shoulder length; it looks good, much healthier. I’ve been told bangs make me look younger and I’ve also been told it looks more mature, ha ha. Here is a pic of the cut I showed the stylist it’s pretty similar.

A is getting stoked for the old holiday season, we are getting him an electric guitar for xmas, and my parents are paying for the lessons. It’s just been hard to find someone teaching guitar in our area, the only places that offer lessons are in different areas or are just way too damn expensive; $20/half hour is kinda steep even for my folks. I’m not putting up a tree, I don’t believe in that crap but I’m getting slack from everyone who says I’m depriving A of the experience of xmas, I think that’s idiotic and I don’t think its doing him an ounce of harm us not buying into all that consumerism/Christian bull-dung. I don’t like the music, I don’t like shopping and I don’t like the bible so I’m not going to do something that is against what I personally believe to coddle my 9 year old and give him the same sense of delusion the rest of the country is suffering from. Call me a grinch or a humbug or whatever I just don’t like xmas or really anything that goes along with it.

On that note, Saturday is our holiday staff party. It’s at a fancy restaurant; we will be able to drink for free too. I’m having a big juicy steak for supper, MmmmmMmmmm steak. I haven’t been to an “actual staff party” with this office; last year was just a potluck kind of thing where we all ate here at the office. We all got gift cards for a mall last year. One of my co-workers said they got jewelry for a gift a few years back, I hope we get gift cards again, I hate jewelry I’m not that kind of girl I’d rather have $30 to spend on music or gifts for my family.

Tonight we’re going out to the bar for a couple friends’ birthdays. Should be a messy but fun time, we’re pre-gaming it at our place; I have a couple of bottles of my dad’s homemade white wine chilling. Neither of us have got really ripped in a while so I’m looking to get loose and get our dance on, the bar is uber close to our place so cab fare won’t be too pricy. Unfortunately my knees have been hurting for the past couple days, feeling a little better today, I think I over did it with the squats and lunges the other day. I’ll just have to be careful when dancing and I will wear my trainers to dance in. I’m excited though we will be seeing a lot of people we’ve lost touch with on some level due to life being to damn busy/expensive to go out to all the events and functions we are constantly invited too, ah to be 32 and freer, I can’t wait.

We’ll that’s about it for now. Hope everyone who reads this has a great weekend! Cheers!

Untitled

We all just want to be heard,
We all desire to be understood,
Perhaps to feel that some sort of value is put upon us,
Then we are beneficial to the world.

This is true,
This is the reality of life,
We are here to learn and to teach,
We are here to be heard.

AC

Untitled

Great minds,
May you cross my path,
So I might become a small part of your greatness.

Ever evolving,
Until one day, all small parts make me great.

AC

Untitled

When I met you,
You were broken,
and down hearted.
I didn't know if you could love me,
all I knew was you didn't want to,
But I felt I should teach you.

And so I started to care,
To love you in my own way,
I though maybe I should go,
I was scared.
You should know,
Something this unconditional,
This devoted,
Does not come easily,
It takes tremendous patients,
And time.

So for years I was left searching,
For that tiny piece of heart left in you,
that might love me but when I found it,
I learned it belonged to someone else,
For years you lied for your own sake,
And I felt like my poor heart would break,
and I know you’ve felt that kind of hurt.

But seasons change and you did too,
And though its been hard,
I’ve always been there for you,
Till one day once you lessened your grip,
On the detrimental lamenting over those other girls,
You were free to love again,
Finally you gave it back to me,
Just so you know,
It was worth the wait.

AC
