Getting some great feedback on promos for the EP release with kind words and/or plays from Laurent Garnier, Âme and Mr Scruff among others... More details to follow. Meanwhile a nice review in i-DJ:

I did a guest mix for Universal Vibes in July - now online (download, stream, tracklist): here.
Lots of other great mixes from Greg Wilson, Fusionova & more on the site: index.

The FuJi EP (Deep Contact, Duh, FuJi, The Feeling) will be out on vinyl on Mon 15 September Mon 29 September - bit delayed as apparently people don't buy so many records when on their summer holidays (other way round for me, but still). More details soon on reviews and where to buy. The tracks are up on my myspace page.

Butti 49, 'Incurable' remixes and versions out now on Exceptional Records. Featuring the sultry vocals of Mayia James and including Young David vocal and dub mixes. Available exclusively from Beatport and iTunes.

New 'wet disco' (agua aguarggh) remix of fuerte up on the music page.

Also did a remix of of the theme tune of legendary Swedish TV culcha programme 'Kobra' - free download from svt's site here. It's a bit lofi so probably doesn't make that much difference, but high-quality .mp3 available too for anyone who wants one - give me a shout here.

I signed a deal for a four-track EP with London-based label Universal Vibes. Will be going over to London in the next couple of months for mastering and maybe a live outing. Hoping the record will be out by summer. Previews up on myspace.

Another remix coming out soonish too.

What happened to my first remix - of Prima Donna's 'The Ditch' - reflects the precarious state of the record industry of late. Just after most of the CDs were shipped, the distributor went bust, which means the label and artists won't get a penny from sales of those CDs.

Fortunately that doesn't apply to downloads, available from iTunes, Beatport, DJDownload, TrackItDown, Audio Jelly, Juno, DJ Tunes, HRFQ, Xpressbeats and more. So head along to one of these if you feel like supporting labels like Audio Therapy who are putting out fresh, new music.

The Ditch remix and FuJi played on Beyond Jazz in December (podcasts still available), and FuJi, The Feeling and a new tune Duh on Universal Vibes .

FuJi (formerly known as Untitled) played on Simon Harrison's Basic Soul radio show. And another couple of new tracks up: The Feeling and Deep Contact here.

My remix of Prima Donna's 'The Ditch' is out on 19 November on Audio Therapy's Autumn/Winter CD. Info and sound samples on therapy's site and the track is also up here in glorious myspace quality.

Our lounge bossa cover of Turbonegro's 'Do You Do You Dig Destruction' is out on 14 November - up on Como Si Nada myspace. and available here:

LOS SUAVES NEGROES
a lounge and bossa tribute to Turbonegro
RELEASE NOVEMBER 14 2007

(price 149 Sweden Kronor SEK = aprox. 23 USD or 16 EUR)

... but been busy.

I've been doing a few house tracks lately - a couple of remixes on my myspace page which should be released in the not too distant future.

Also Natalie and I did a bossa nova cover of a Norwegian deathpunk track which, unlikely as that may sound, should be coming out on a compilation in the autumn. Can't put the track up yet, but check out our myspace: Como Si Nada.

Also been doing some music to picture, but more on that next time. Trevlig sommar.

I'm producing some tracks with Natalie Knutzen, an amazing singer and guitarist from Argentina. On the music page: 'Permission to speak', featuring Santiago Jimenez on violin.

- The perils of the charity shop. 'Monkey' is a kind of broken bossa with vocals from a dodgy old record used to teach English to the world's children.
- And 'All electro now'. Not my usual thing, but came to Sweden, wrote a pop song. With lo-fi robot vocals.

Welcome to my site. I uploaded three tracks to start with:
- a remix of 'poker night' (broken breaks featuring samples from a high-stakes poker game in Amsterdam, parental advisory),
- 'fuerte' (lounging latin house, more Canaries than Balearics),
- 'over' (not sure how to describe this one, horizontal listening maybe. Ambient funk?).
I put an earlier mix of 'fuerte' and the original 'poker night' on vitaminic.com (sadly no longer with us) under the name bosch.
More to come soon.
