Alps Vacation.

2011-05-12T08:18:00.000-07:00

While I was away working on my tan Seb was working hard in the Alps. I say working, he was slingin' a few laidback beats and going shredding with his buddies. Tough at the top lad. Big up to Orillo Productions for the photos.

See what I mean hard bloody work

Oop he's doing something.

Apre Rave

Jakwob Slammin it

Alps Vacation Mix

2011-04-01T11:17:00.001-07:00

Sorry for the lack of posts recently. Sebs been smashing his house a part and I've been busy going freelance. It's been a pretty crazy few months for the both of us, so we're off on a holiday. I'm heading to the Caribbean - Seb wasn't invited so he's off in a sulk to the Alps to catch the last of the snow, eat cheese vongue and slingin' a few records in Tigne. To celebrate the fact he'll be melting some faces and snow (see what I did there) we put together a little mix...

Wakestock Mix Series Presents Plastic Thumbs

2011-02-21T02:47:00.000-08:00

Wakestock kindly asked us to put a little mix together for their Presents Mixtape Series. We were stoked so jumped at the chance. It maybe a little bit more commercial than our other mixes but we wanted to get as many acts on there that have performed at the festival and maybe a few that'll be there this year.

It's Only A Mixtape

2010-11-09T01:28:00.000-08:00

We've put together a new mixtape for our friends at It's Only A Mixtape. This is our fifth mixtape this year so we wanted to put something together a little different. This is I guess more, what makes us tick, stuff that's inspired us, produces we love and stuff we don't get to play in the clubs... And of course there's still a load of face melters in there too.

Head over to www.itsonlyamixtape.co.uk to download it for free and have a read of our sketchy interview.

Bench Warehouse Project Competition by Plastic Thumbs on Mixcloud

DJ Comps aren't really our thing but we couldn't resist this one. The prize is a slot at the infamous Warehouse Project. Our technique is simple... drop as many face melters as possible in 30mins.

We need as much tinterweb love as we can get because it's not just judged on our nimble little discjock fingers. Please listen, tweet, favourite and spread the word...

Wish us luck.

Leeds Fest

2010-09-08T06:22:00.001-07:00

Leeds Fest was epic. We played two sets over the weekend. The first on Thursday was crazy as we pretty much opened the festival. Everyone was gagging for a rave, with us having to stop half way through our set because people were getting crushed, fighting and pushing down barriers. Bloody heath and saftey nonsense... It was kinda nice to have a bit of a gap before going back on for an encore and playing a 15mins slot of the dirtiest filthstep to get everyone hyped for Crystal Fighters - who killed it.

My films are still being processed so I'll get some more shots up when they're back. In the meantime there's couple of sketchy vids after the jump. They were filmed on Sebs iphone with a pretty shaky drunken hand but you'll get the picture. A massive big up to all the Sport Vision crew for having us and of course a shout out to our new Hype man, Abbo Dan.

Come say hello...

2010-08-12T08:13:00.000-07:00

We haven't posted anything for a while and this is a bit of a shitty little one but we just wanted to let everyone know where we're gonna be playing, and what we're up to over the next week or two… Come say hello if you're near by

Wakestock Weekend

2010-07-12T02:19:00.000-07:00

Jesus I don't really know what to say... I guess I can safely say Wakestock was pretty special.

We were supposed to DJ 3 times but ended up playing 6. Friday night was mental warming up for 3 of our favourite Discjocks, Jakwob, Toddla T and Skream who all smashed it! But not as mental as the night after when we had to fill in for Zane Lowe in the Bigtop. Probably about 500 people when we first went out, half way through the set there was maybe 5000. Definitely the craziest gig I've done.

Massive thanks to Sim and Xavier for the photos. Have a scan after the jump.

I don't know whether everyone thought we were Zane Lowe or what... But it was going off it's tits! Photo: Sim Bradley

Beach Break Live & Cardiff Arts Institute

2010-06-23T02:11:00.000-07:00

We were down in South Wales playing in a giant ghettoblaster last weekend. Bigup to Beach Break it was epic. We love camping and the sun was blazing. We all developed a bit of a crush on Annie Mac... Maybe it was the vast amounts of rum and cider but she bloody killed it.

The next day brought a massive hangover, a dodgey belly from a late night kebab and what turned out to be a bit of a mission to Cardiff for around two. Again a massive thanks to Kaptain at Cardiff Arts Institute - hit up his blog www.chromekids.blogspot.com and give him some love.

More photos after the jump.

Next stop Wakestock... Shiiiieeeeeet!

Bast had that mix dialled, so he did it with his eyes closed

Fuck the Vuvuzela... This was a ships fog horn hooked up to its own gas canasta. Paaaarrrrrppp!

Me & Paul love camping...

And me & the happy chap on the bus buzz off Cardiff. Yeaaah!

No Bullshit Mix

2010-06-20T05:11:00.001-07:00

One lazy Sunday afternoon I recorded this and it's been sat in my itunes ever since. We've both found ourselves listening to it quite a bit. It's a little different to our other mixes and we've ended up loving it for its simplicity, so we decided to post it.

There's no fancy mixing, no PT re-edits, no samples or klaxons. 140bpm... No bullshit!

Wow-Wa-Wee that was a BIGGY. Two gigs back to back in Abersoch is heavy. We had a dope time! Thanks to everyone who came to see us. We really didn't think it was gonna be that crazy or smokey. Hmm yeh, maybe we did get a bit carried away and dropped a couple too many face melters! Same again next Banky. Do it!! More after the jump

Getting Loose In Shrewsbury

2010-04-29T03:41:00.001-07:00

A few weeks back we did two gigs in Shrewsbury and were lucky enough to be included in some epic line-ups with Chase & Status, Andy C, Caspa, Jack Beats, Zinc and Sbtrkt. We had a blast, drank lots of Rum, ate Pizza, discovered how strange Wetherspoons is and thanks to a shitty monitor pretty much came home deaf. Shrewsbury's nice enough but a little odd... More after the jump

Zinc killin it downstairs in the Cellars. He bloody loves those oldskool spin backs. So dope.

Sbtrkts secret powers. He's pretty much useless without it and isn't even that ugly.

A room with a view. You could lose hours staring out of that window. Sublime.

Mmmm...? Shrewsbury has some mad street names. This was next to Grope St. no shit!
