:: iPhone baby! ::

I wonder if you can help me? I'm looking for a country in the world where it would be legal for me to marry my new iPhone!? I lurv it! Apple you are amazing!

I've been using Mac stuff since the IIci and continue to be amazed at the genius devices, interfaces and cool ideas that continually eminate from Apple HQ in Cupertino, California, USA. Johnny Ive should be knighted by the Queen. Nuff said.

As far as tunage goes, lots of 'Back for 08' material on the show next week, so join me on FIRE 107.6FM from 8pm, Tuesday night for your weekly dose of house, electro, beats, bleeps and tasty remixes. Listen online at: fireradio.co.uk

:: Herd it on the grapevine ::

This week's show featured a mix of new tunes, a modern classic, a couple of remixes and a brilliant special guest!

I was joined last night by Jason Herd, who is probably best known for being one-half of Herd & Fitz. However, it was clear from chattting to him that his future collaborations and signings on his own label 'J-Funk', mean that he's progressed far beyond his J-Soul days and earlier releases. The latest release 'The Right Way' sees him teaming up with Wawa and the superb vocal talents of Amanda Wilson.


This was only surpassed on the show last night by Jason giving us a sneaky listen to his 21st release 'Greenlight', which he's created with Pure Fire favourite Ben Macklin, and vocalist Steve Edwards. Quite a line up of tunes and quite a guest. We topped this off as usual by letting Jason loose on the FIRE airwaves for an hours guest mix. Pure quality for Tuesday night.

The playlist was a follows:
Guru Josh Project 'Infinity 08' (Klass Edit) ( Maelstrom)
Axwell & Bob Sinclar 'What A Wonderful World' (EDX Vocal Mix) (Defected)
Greg Stainer 'Long Verb' (Kinky Malinki)
Buzz Junkies ft. Alison Limerick 'Where Love Lives 08' (AATW)
Liquid Nation ft. Andrea Britton 'Breathe Life' (Chris Ortega & Thomas Gold Remix) (Hit!)
Damian Wilson ft. Anne Bailey 'Take Me Away' (DONS vs. DBN Remix) (Cr2)
Energy 52 'Cafe Del Mar 08' (Da Bruck & Klein Remix) (AATW)
Prok & Fitch 'New Wave' (Pure Fire Radio Edit) (Stealth)
The Drill 'Piano Man' (Destined)
Herd & Fitz ft. Abigail Bailey 'Just Can't Get Enough' (J-Funk)

:: Breathe Life ::

I've been playing this for a while now, but have decided to blog about it in time for the weekend because it's been released for public consumption today. Liquid Nation (aka the Bassmonkeys) have come out with a real commercial dance tune, with a catchy vocal from Andrea Britton and a superb remix from Chris Ortega & Thomas Gold. Already sounding good on my radio shows and getting great reaction on the dancefloor it's available for download here.

Have a great weekend peeps.
