I'm A Deckhead: Nick Thayer 1:33 PM

Nick Thayer

Distorted noise is finally loosing its great influence throughout the Sydney scene, more and more people are becoming disgruntled with the loud noises, often waking up with their ears ringing from the night before, this also will help clubs who experience a lot of problems with the thousand of munted kids who only seem to enjoy this while fucked up.

For the past year the Melbourne scene has been maturing with its appreciation for music, moving away from the distorted noise and bangers that used to plague most clubs, its now moving to a broader range of genres. I've heard about everything from great indie parties, to bars filled with nu disco music and of course Baltimore club music dominating underground clubs, as well as your standard fidget and electro sounds. Whenever international acts are flown into Melbourne the names Scatterblog and The Late Show are always affiliated with the crazy parties, and most of the most well known djs seem to be writers for both of these blogs, they also have a tendency to producer some killer tracks.

I've been sent through a killer collaboration by The Late Show's Nick Thayer and Scatterblogs own Mat Cant, its a big bassline rave version of Fatman Scoop's Be Faithful. After hearing this track, I decided it would be best to go hunt down some more of Nick Thayer's remixes and edits, his tracks have great versatility from big basslines, to club friendly hip hop edits and even the occasional mellow disco track, all coming back to a hip hop flavor throughout them.

Nick Thayer & Mat Cant - Pick It Up

Nick Thayer - Fabricated

Joe Bataan - Rap-O Clap-O (Nick Thayer Edit)

In more Nick Thayer news he just had a tune released on Southern Fried called 'Rockin It' with Black Noise, and new single 'The Morning Sun' just about to be released on Passenger complete with Two Fresh Rmx. Also keep up to date with The Late Show blog for all his latest remixes, edits and mixtapes

This guy is legit. "Pick It Up" has that hip-hop electronica feel to it, while "Rap-O Clap-O" has that more melow vibe. Check them out.

I'm switching over to posterous. 12:05 PM

So if you're still reading this, change bookmarks or don't change them at all...but all new posts here will be directed straight from my posterous. It's just that much easier to post, especially new songs (and so you can download them easier also!) It's a win-win situation.

My new Desktop 3:58 AM

Today, I decided to customize my OSX desktop.  I must've spent hours troubleshooting all the different programs that I used, deleting and replacing files, and a whole lot of internet surfing.  However I'm proud to have finally completed it, and until I get sick of it, it'll be my desktop for awhile.

Oh and if your curious, the items in my dock (bottom right) are (from top to bottom): Finder, iPhoto, Adium, Safari, iTunes, MS Word, and Transimission, with the traditional Downloads and Documents folders.  Hope you all like it!

Driving 2:45 PM

After coming home from the PI, I drove for the first time yesterday (actually, about 3 hours after I landed).  I know most people don't say this often, but I felt like I had just got my license and it felt GREAT to drive my car again.  Especially since in the philippines all you get is traffic 24/7.  When I go off to NY, I don't know how I'll survive without my car.

Oh, and I'm also going to be trying out this posterous thing again.  Maybe I'll make the switch soon.

and because I went to another rave yesterday, take a listen to this remix of Boom Boom Pow (original by bep, get the album if you havent!)
