Nearly 2 years ago I wrote a track called “Calm Down” with total joke recordings of my friend Udachi and myself talking nonsense. We put it on our Trouble & Bass Scion compilation and it ended up being really popular so I decided to make a follow up called Calm Down Part 2. The demand for its release was to high to ignore so I figured why not make it a trilogy and do Part 3. I asked Drop the Lime to do some vocals for it and flip Part 3 into a more epic mellow track, an outro I guess, and he killed it. To round it out I did a club edit and asked DJ Craze to use his world class DMC skills to cut up the ridiculous vocals and send them back to put in the edit…and he also killed it.

At that point I had this silly concept EP of music that a good amount of people wanted, with 2 very talented friends on 2 of the tracks, but I still wanted it to be more epic so I made it a double vinyl release with one side of each of the discs being a Serato control tone! To add to all of this nonsense I asked amazingly talented designer, Fools Gold co-founder, and my Brooklyn neighbor Dust La Rock to design all of the artwork. The result is this gatefold vinyl Calm Down Trilogy EP which is now on presale at the T&B website. We only pressed 500 copies so it is very limited. Inside one of the sleeves you will find a certificate hand numbered and signed by myself and Dust La Rock.

Huge thanks to the crew at Serato and my brothers Dust, Drop the Lime & Craze for making this such a cool package.

I played Fabric Friday 13th August in room 1 for Drop the Lime’s Fabric Live CD release party, such an incredible night. Next day I played Digital in Brighton with Evil Nine and Krafty Kuts which was also awesome! Monday I hit the Skint party at Revolution in Reading, who knew a Monday could be so wild? Big up to everyone I met and everyone who came! Here’s a few pics. Unfortunately can’t find any from Fabric right now.

In the center of Reading there is an old church with REALLY old creepy deteriorated graves. You don’t see stuff like this in the USA:
