Spreading the word of good music, art, events and the little titbits that fall down inbetween the cushions - Waxy Deposits is here.
Based in Brighton, yet hailing from a hip-hopping North Western background - expect the ill ish from both ends of the country to be posted up on here. Not to be 'scene', or to build up numbers of any sort - just to inform and be informed.
Drop me a line at figureofwax_es@hotmail.co.uk if you're running a night, exhibition, sophisticated dinner party, messy barbeque, far-left protest rally, etc and I'll do the same!
Same goes for any DJs or producers who are putting stuff out and feel like everyone's too busy listening to Lily Allen... although hands up whoever thinks she's got well fit recentley?! The girl used to look like Mike Skinner in drag but she's erm... 'blossomed' nicely it would seem.
Starting off, I've got to give props and heads up to the mythical beast who put me onto this whole blog malarky... Some say he only drinks the tears of orphans, others say he can drop your underwear using his lazer eyes - all we can confirm is that his name is Roland Dubbs and the dude's making power moves!
Roland's come a long way since his birth alongside fictional musical twin 'Jon Blueberry'. Whilst Jon was last spotted somewhere on the Hawaiian shores, sailing his 'party raft' made from French knickers, Dubbs has been wiggling bottoms left, right and centre with his blend of wobbly house and atmospheric dubstep.
His recent endeavours have found him on a remix tip for Romanthony's "The Wanderer" plus shattering speaker cones a-plenty with "Desert". The latter of which pricking up the ears and exercising the talent of South-West Graphic Design guru Alex Bomok.
Add on top of this a brand new mixtape alongside JDevious (Roland's b2b partner in crime) and you've got a frenzy of new music, not to mention a perfect link for me to go into the next section!
It's Thirsty Ear! Based in Sheffield, originally from the deepest, darkest, dampest corners of Buxton, Derbyshire - these guys have been on it and focused since they began in 2004.
With the aforementioned taRDyboys joining head honchos Dark Phayd-R, Dr. Bad Touch and Infinite Soul as residents - it's the perfect solution for anyone seeking quality music from a beat-induced spectrum. Infact, with that outlook in mind, the same can be said with regards to the Ear's growing collection of 7" releases crafted by Phayd-R and Infinite.
Feeding the parched canals inside Sheffield's Harley Bar, past guests have included Boca 45, Bullion (who's turning many heads at the moment!) and ITF champ DJ Woody. With a Tru-Thoughts Takeover confirmed for April 4th (see you there!) fronted by the label's co-owner Rob Luis plus beatsmith Natural Self, this monthly night is set to get even bigger and even better... Take it from me, that's pretty fucking good!
