yaaargh its pretty darn bad too, i had a show in madrid on wednesday, came back thursday to realize id lost my voice, had to perform in the g-shock shop on friday (ironically with wretch 32), then did a video shoot for my new single overload on saturday! can you say epic fail?
but hey VERY busy week, but it got done in the end! The mix on this is a liiiiiil bit scrappy but with 12 hours sleep between 4 days what do you want from me!?!
whats that? you want a well mixed refix you say?? very clever lol
anyways people thats it from me till next week! im off to bed! at 6pm! o_O!
Week 19!
Another gloooorious sunday with minimum sleep and this week ive decided to refix a track under much criticism, Chipmunks ‘Flying High.’
Now I know Chipmunks attitude doesnt wash well with many people, and his previous singles took a much more solid pop route then other people might have liked, but the bottom line is this track is NO WHERE NEAR as bad as people are making it out to be. It might not be your cup of tea, but its kinda disturbing to see so many people act as if the music is bad just because they dont like his character.
music is music…
anyway this song was easy peasy, like 2 hours to complete easy! I decided to be more relaxed on the track too. “but pulsey! what made you spit relaxed?’ i hear you cry? NO REASON! i just did haha! welcome to the world of someone whos randomly impulsive haha!
on that note im going to my bed to try and sleep for an hour 😀
Week 18!
hello you wonderful lot, so its week 18 and I finished this one early meaning Ive actually slept! hurrah! More anime watching for me today! lol
anyway… so this week was a no brainer, as almost everyone whos anyone is on this track!
Instrumentally there wasnt anything difficult to replicate or add, but I was stumpted on what to do lyric-wise. At first I thought to emulate each of the spitters on the track, but that would be A: VERY patronizing to the artists on here, and B: one hell of a long refix.
I was reading all the comments of the original game over track and then it hit me! Everyone has an opinion of the track, and so do I! so there you have it! I simply spat what I thought of who did what on the tune, ON THE TUNE! 😀
I was gonna leave it there, but i couldnt resist spitting propperly on such a sick beat, so i also snuck in a cheeky 8 bar at the end!
Well thats it from me!
REMEMBER you can DOWNLOAD weeks 1-14 of the refixes FOR FREE by clicking the FREE DOWNLOAD section!
At the time of writing this its 3:14 in the afternoon and ‘fake tales of san Francisco” by the arctic monkeys just came on my itunes. Those of you that follow me on twitter or facebook will already know the horror that ive had to deal with tonight.
to make a long story short, this week i had to mix my single and had a ton of meetings, leaving me with having only 8 hours sleep shared between the last 5 days. Pretty bad right? OH BUT IT DOESNT STOP THERE!!!
So its about 1am and im just adding the finishing touches to the refix and what happens?? MY COMPUTER SWITCHES OFF!!! before the rage set in, i simply switched the mac on again and started over, i mean you all know how late i work sometimes, so it wasnt the end of the world…
so im nearly finished with the refix for the SECOND time and what happens? LOGIC CRASHES AGAIN!! Its now around 5am and bare in mind the 8 hours in 5 days sleeping pattern. What do I do? for me there’s only one option…
DO IT ALL OVER AGAIN!
Im SO thankful for everybody that comes on here, subscribes and comments on my refixes every single week and to me, you’re all worth that dedication.
I’ve just realized the irony of what took place tonight… its halloween haha, what a nightmare, pun intended.
well thats all from me! see you guys next week! and thank you again 🙂 PLEASE SPREAD THE WORD!
its been a while since putting any of my masterpieces up, but for all the newcomers: I cook, REALLY well at that! (Can you hear that? Its the Sound Of a man blowing his own trumpet!!)
Here we have a shrimp and green leaf salad, topped with halloumi cheese, diced streaky bacon and caesar Dressing, with some granary bread topped with garlic and herb roule cheese.
The Good old peeps at blatantly blunt tv caught up with me just before i went on stage. I ws craaaazy ill hence my voice sounding like im holding my nose!
week 16! another week another refix and this week i went back to my grime roots with the CLASSIC top 3 selected by ghets (formerly known as ghetto)
This beat relies mainly on power, so as an electric guitarist its right up my street! The beat was remade in the record time of 2 hours (yes, yes im very proud haha)
For those that arnt familiar with ghettos work, as an m.c hs flow is out of this world, so it was VITAL that I go all out in that area lyrically to do it justice (and i like to think i did!)
You know today I woke up and realised that this is refix number 16, meaning that ive been doing this EVERY SINGLE WEEK without fail (even on my birthday) for FOUR WHOLE MONTHS. well… only 8 more months to go i guess haha.
So what are you guys doing on wednesday? nothing? great! well then come on down to the proud galleries and watch your pal random impulse perform! (please?) lol.
Doors open at the gloryious time of 8:30pm and you can buy tickets and/or check out more details about the night HERE
week 15! and the first in the SECOND SEASON of refixes! (complete yayness!)
This week is a personal FAVE!
One of my best pals ed sheeran has been on tour with example for the past month and what better way to welcome him home then with his very own refix?
Now I realize that he isn’t as widely known as the majority of artists that I refix but that isn’t what these are about: they’re about refixing amazing music and putting my own take on it, and if you check out the original of this, you’ll instantly see how incredible a song it is!
you might be wondering what makes the first of season two, well thats because you can DOWNLOAD ALL THE REFIXES BEFORE THIS FOR FREE on the blog, in the ‘free downloads’ section by midnight TONIGHT!
OH OH! i also have my FIRST OFFICIAL SINGLE dropping soon called ‘OVERLOAD’ so keep your eyes and ears peeled for the video!!
anyway thats all from me! and a big thank you to every one reading these! (especially KayteeMusicUK) nice to know im not rambling to myself! haha
