Bruce

Dublin’s very own Bruce Moran brings an eclectic mix of tasty beats for the 20th installment of the !K-Mix series, that takes in grime, electro, old school hardcore and some current bass music all wrapped up with a bit of Autechre loveliness. Nice.

Had great fun doing the show this week. Fairly pacey intro, all B-More Club and future 2-Step biz. Remember that Wayne & Wax version of ‘Big Pimpin’’ I played two weeks ago? Well, Rico Tubbs just did a new version of it, which is perfect for getting the place a-skanking. Picked up some 8bitch stuff this week too, as well as heaps of stuff from Germany’s ABC crew (no relation to Alphabet Set mind!). Fairly smokey beats for the latter half of this show, with a few ‘not-the-usual-stuff-i-play’ moments from the likes of Scurvy Lass, plus a track from Yannis Kyriakides & Andy Moor, who have an album out now which you should check out.

Ok, so here we go. Moombahton, Afrobeat, Mutant Soca, North African BIZNIZ, Mashups, Dubstep, Grime, Squelchcore, Hip Shake & Rumbletronics. In that order. Check all that forthcoming !Kaboogie action, the new sampler is on the way. Very, very soon.

!K-MIX19 - SUBVERSUS - ‘Break The Banks’

Subversus

After hearing their storming set at !Kaboogie’s !K Club recently, we had to ask the SUBVERSUS lads (Shatterfreak and Welfare) to give us a mix of them doing their thing for our Mix Series. They gave us this, the ‘Break The Banks’ mix.  Enjoy.

Elijah & Skiliam Interview : !Kaboogie Feature

Elijah & Skiliam Interview

Badman selectors Elijah and Skiliam will be hitting Dublin tomorrow night, May 28, in the Twisted Pepper for what promises to be some prime time grime properness. They've kindly taken the time to answer a few questions from Richie !K, plus there's a few tasty links there too for those of you who mightn't be familiar with them - good introduction!

All City

For the last ten years, All City Records has been a bastion of hip hop in Dublin. Records, spray-paint, a music label, as well as the latest addition of a street art gallery downstairs, has seen All City turn into a one-stop-shop for those into hip-hop culture. The success of last years '7 X 7 BEAT' series, which featured the likes of Mike Slott, Hudson Mohawke and Onra, looks set to be followed by the LA 10 X 10 Series, highlighting the talents of a bunch of LA producers, with the first release featuring Dibiase and P.U.D.G.E. All City head honcho Olan took the time out to answer a few of our questions.

SSTN interview

SSTN has been highlighting the diverse and exciting talents of Dublin, and Ireland as a whole, through it's free monthly gigs and excellent blog. Each gig is an audio-visual feast, and has featured the likes of Gland & Conduit, Cárthach Ó Nuanáin, Fran Hartnett, Vince Mack Mahon, PushMoveClick and Scurvy Lass. Barely a year old, these guys have been pushing Irish electronic music forward big time. We sat them down, took off their shoes and started quizzing them. Answers popped up as the footrubs progressed.

!Kaboogie Records

Although !Kaboogie had initially been born out of a need to have nights that were both fun and bass-heavy, the idea of starting a record label had been discussed since the very beginning. The desire to put out vinyl records ran hand in hand with that of creating artifacts to help document and capture the insane buzz that's been happening at the !Kaboogie parties the last few years.
