The music is flowing thick & fast this month which is unusual as January tends to be alcohol and 4/4 free for me… This is the new FYB mix of tracks from 2011 that were Funktion One ready at our NYE party Boompt! and that I haven’t already used on previous mixes. The first hour of the mix was also broadcast on the finca am show on Ibiza Global Radio & welovehouse in Germany.

The new mix for the Finca am radio show was influenced by the flawed Utopia of Logans Run (as was the name and images from the original film). It comprises of recent ish music for a fresh start to 2012 (which almost sounds like a year in a sci-fi film).
Many of these 70′s genre films age terribly but I have a soft spot for the kitsch and weird nature of Logans Run, just let your imagination do what the films painfully dated special effects don’t…
1. Carousel (B-Shakes Edit) – Logans Run 2. Dystopia (The Earth Is On Fire) [The Emperor Machine Dub] – Yacht 3. Families (feat. glasser) – John Talabot 4. Love Love (Kasper Bjork remix – Mojo Filter edit) – Ghost Society 5. Casio Romance – Mr Beatnick 6. On 2 You – Bobby Tank 7. Take Me Home – Poolside 8. Myrtle Avenue – Floating Points 9. Love U Mama (Original Mix) – Maceo Plex Feat. Fabel 10. Scribbled Paper (Fear of Theydon Remix) – Little Dragon 11. Rule of the Bone – Ballistic Brothers 12. We Could Forever- Bonobo
Check out the scene in the film from where I sampled Track 1, love it…
B-Shakes Edit 2 glides gently away from B-Shakes Edit 1. It’s in a similar vain and parent pleasing sentiment to the Glen Campbell Edit and one of my favorite James Taylor songs (wanna learn the guitar with James? click here). I have also added an exclusive AOR Disco mix, check it out their blog as it’s full of edit ear gold. Here’s hoping I haven’t done too much damage to the original and have taken it somewhere new and interesting.
WOW. Soundcloud the You Tube of audio was recently valued at$200 million with a new injection of $50 million I think the social aspect and content sharing/sourcing is fantastic but there is significant room for improvement and if they don’t raise the virtual bar you can guarantee that someone else will.
Given a superior User interface and a more sensible pricing structure I would definitely consider jumping clouds. Hopefully they will spend wisely and eradicate my own medium user pet peeves:
Downtime – Service regularly interrupted (perhaps due to success and scalability)
Price – Annual storage options are very expensive when comparing to other storage/play platforms but it’s popularity locks you in…
Track/content – re-ordering not possible due to poor original coding design.
Track hiding – When your time quota is reached it auto hides the oldest upload which is a royal pain in the proverbial to get it back and organise playlist.
Copyright Infringement – Not really their fault but very annoying once you’ve waited and uploaded a mix and are told that it’s got one tiny element that won’t clear. (Has happened on several occasions)
I’ll be Meldrew sure to update this post if I think of or encounter any more issues
