WeAreBlahBlahBlah EP12 - Mixed by Style of Eye

The mixes have been coming thick and fast over the last couple of weeks and to finish off a superb month of mixes we have the Swedish Grammy Nominated Style of Eye.

The Stockholm born and based DJ/producer is making a name for himself in techno, but his productions are essentially a journey through everything from techno to house via raw percussion and minimal, floaty melodies and downright weird noises.

WeAreBlahBlahBlah EP12 Style of Eye

WeAreBlahBlahBlah EP12 - Mixed by Style of Eye

This exclusive mix is no different as Linus (Style of Eye) takes us on a journey through techno, minimal, electro, percussion led fidget which is all nicely laced together with a building atmospheric groove which is polished with a killer melody just at the right moment……cracking stuff and one to played loud!

Style Of Eye’s productions are testament to the hotbed of talent springing forth from the underground scene. After growing up in a jazz and soul oriented family, graduating from banging pots and pans to a drumkit aged 10, he realised electronic music was his calling after getting his first computer aged 15 and making “weird downtempo dubbeat and trip hop.“ DJing upbeat drum and bass followed at 16, and Linus was a firm fixture in the studio before long, developing his unique style of music.

If you like this mix then his highly acclaimed 2008 debut album ‘Duck Cover and Hold’ is a must have, with killer tracks such as Ona and Girls to name a few Style of Eye is a producer with the vision and talent to become one of the biggest names on the scene.

WeAreBlahBlahBlah EP11 - Mixed by Filthy Dukes

The Filthy Dukes have been with us since 2004 and those of you who understood the net before the blogs told us everything we needed to know, would have no doubt stumbled across a dance rock infused Filthy Dukes mixtape from time to time.

WeAreBlahBlahBlah EP11 Filthy Dukes


WeAreBlahBlahBlah EP11 - Mixed by 2 Filthy Dukes

The dance rock DJs have been at the forefront of the club scene for sometime as both DJs and promoters, propelling themselves from the grotty sticky floors of the Camden Bar Fly to the more pleasant surroundings of Fabric with their outrageous ability to effortlessly combine the best upcoming live and DJ talent, presenting the likes of Justice, Late of the Pier, Bloc Party alongside your Sindens, Boy 8 Bits and Erol Alkans……

and if that wasn’t enough they have now taken the Kill em All ethos and moulded the DJ duo into a four piece live outfit (Filthy Dukes Live) and are about to release their eagerly anticipated debut LP ‘Nonsense in the Dark’. Nonsense in the Dark due to be released March 16th has been described as featuring proper songs with an indie heartbeat, electro pulse and an analogue bite, that will both move your heart as well as your feet. Kill em All on a CD if you like.

We have been huge fans of the Filthy Dukes for sometime and if you like us cant wait till mid March for the album we can exclusively give you a taster of whats to come with their latest mixtape exclusively on WeAreBlahBlahBlah.

WeAreBlahBlahBlah EP10 - Mixed by Stopmakingme

Stopmakingme is someone we have admired from as early as 2006 and in that time since we first contacted him on the fledgling social networking forum ‘Myspace’ he has gone on to be critcally acclaimed by Time Out Magazine, secure residencies at Adventures in the Beetroot Field, Kill em All (Fabric) and regularly spins at Durrr and Bugged Out.

This rapid rise to the top has been no fluke with Stopmakingme crafting himself a unique sound that draws from a wide range of influnces and always offers something new. In a time where everything can be downloaded and pretty much everyone has access to the same tracks, Stopmakingme has the amazing ability to un-earth hidden gems as if he is still digging through the bargain 12 inch bucket at your local charity shop……
