16 bit mix, let's do it
It's difficult to breathe, it is difficult to move, it is difficult to speak. But it is easy to panic.
How can I concentrate on "Hopelessly Romantic" a gushy romance novel I was FORCED into reading by my, well, hopelessly romantic friend, when I have the amazing Kissy Sell Out playing some of the best dubstep I have heard in a long time out of my little vintage radio?! It's not doable, so the book is down at 00.25AM and I'm getting up to date with his latest whereabouts/musical likes and dislikes. YES, I am aware I have to be up at 6.30am for a jog, then work til 6... but how can I go out in Leeds tomorrow night without knowing the latest on Kissy? Good argument Grace, Well Done. Thanks yeh. High-Five.
So, what ARE you up to Kissy you gorgeous man? Your album "Wild Romance" is out now? Wow it seems only yesterday I'd been reading of this being an up and coming thing! I was unaware of the date. I must apologize for not noticing as my vision has recently been obscured by library books and while I'd love to read NME and Radio One gossip, it just wasn't feasible. That has all changed now I tell you, back up North with prospects of visits to London to see my favouritist of friends, I am ready and raring to be thrown back into the madness of Dubstep/Electro/Grunge!
At Radio One, he's like a little gem they keep close to their heart and let him loose for a couple of hours when the sun it well and truly in. He's done over a hundred show and amongst all the times I have heard him play a set he shows off even more of those wonderful technical skills he has! I am always geekily eager to log on to the Radio One website after he's played a mind blowing mash-up of new talent and mixes of all the old records you forgot about.
So as he's been back in the Studio, do we see an even deeper side to Kissy? Well it seems it. I've looked on his myspace page and the blog from quite a while ago gives a run down of some tracks he has produced and the whens and whys to his reasons for writing them. DEEP. But it's cool.
“I weave in a lot of classical music and I think had I not done the radio show I wouldn’t have known how to weave that in to a dance track. I’m so used to that, so what I wanted to was combine what I was doing already – writing my own music, and playing all my own instruments and composing it all – and mix that with the classical influence.” Kissy.
A lovely explanation really for his album YOUTH too..... I love the clash,no clash isn't the word, but you know what I mean - of musical genre. It's all in there and you can almost hear the effort of composition that has gone into his work. I love it. And so will you if you've not had chance to listen to his work.........So enough of my chat, get listening guys and girls.
The album Wild Romance is out now, he's got a fixed spot on Radio One and you can catch up with him wherever is closest to you - he is EVERYWHERE at the moment. Wicked,have a good night. I must sleep to face this jog tomorrow. All for you Benicassim Body!!
