REBEL’S BLOG…
It’s been a few weeks since my last blog but, as has been the way with me this year, a lot seems to have happened in a relatively short space of time. Having worked hard on new music all summer it seems that people have started to take notice of my productions and I have had tracks signed to Sishi Rosch and Diego Moreno’s Barcelona based label, Digital delight
The label is going from strength to strength and is attracting a lot of attention from some of the big players of the house music world. As if that wasn’t enough I have an EP which will see wax early next year on new imprint “Hourglass music”. You can hear the tracks here http://soundcloud.com/hourglassmusic”
Naturally I am really excited about releasing tracks alongside artists such as Rosch and Puente, Wildkats, Julian Sandre, Death on the balcony, Aquarius heaven, the list of peers goes on. Both labels reflect a sound and attitude I both respect and admire and I can’t wait to see my tracks out in the open! Before that happens I have a new job starting at the beginning of November. I am, all of a sudden, going to have an awful lot on my plate but I enjoy being busy. It’s all to easy to relax and feel comfortable with what you’ve got but I have never been like that, I have to follow my heart and do what is necessary. The Job may not have been expected but it feels like the right path to take and we all need to make a little money, right?
I don’t expect anything to get in the way of my musical dreams however, I see this path as a path of learning, an attitude I have learnt the late Steve Jobs had when he dropped out of college. His passing earlier this month was not something I expected to be affected by but I watched this video last week and was pretty moved by his words.
If you have ever doubted or doubt what you are doing in life watch this video, it’s incredibly inspiring. The man was a visionary and if you are in any way creative then I am sure you will have had your life somewhat touched by an apple device. No one has changed the world more than this man in the last 20 years.
The weekend of the 21st/22nd of October sees Oxjam smack Leicester around the chops and then saying “It’s okay its for charity”. Two days of events, parties and culture hit the city with everyone getting involved. Sonido will be rocking the warehouse look on the Saturday, guaranteed to be huge and all for a good cause. Save the Pony are no different, we are putting on one last charity hoorah on the Friday (21st October) in Leicester. We have once again enlisted the help of Kubicle and Fabric’s FB Julian as well as support from our residents. Julian’s stock is rising fast and since we last had him down to one of our Pony parties he’s been rocking Fabric on several occasions including last Saturday’s Rebel Rave. A special mention goes out to a début Back 2 Back set from Jack and Lacosta (if he’s still allowed in the club!), definitely not to be missed. The event will be held downstairs at the interlude and we will have collection buckets dotted around the place for donations to Oxfam.
