DJ Dano & B-Koz: Remix Round 1

Evening all. Time for (I think) the 13th post in a row with "DJ Dano & B-Koz" in the title.

Now that the dust has settled on the gig, we've started getting our team of remixers working away on a few of the tracks. The first results are from elusive audio messer Kick Acid (*cough* DJ Dano *cough*), and yours truly.

Check out Kick Acid's "Club Sandwich edit" of "Everybody Let's Go" over on the DJ Dano and B-Koz Bebo page.

My remix is of trusty old "Evidence is Real". This was meant to go on sale as a single at the show/in Universal, but fate has let them sit gathering dust in my backpack. 20 hard copies will go to our nearest and dearest. Probably. You can have your own hard copy if you'd like by lobbing the tunes on a CD and printing out the slightly racy cover (designed by DJ Dano of course).





1. Evidence is Real
2. Evidence is Real (Tugboat Willy's Forged Evidence remix)

Hope you enjoy! Anyway, here I am meticulously editing a blog post when I should be out partying like there's no tomorrow. Laterz, Shinduggies.

P.S. If you'd like to get your hands on the parts of one of the tunes for a remix, you're more than welcome! Just leave us a comment/drop us an email.

DJ Dano & B-koz: The aftermath

What a cracking weekend it was. I'm still absolutely shattered. Big thankz to all the coves who showed up. Easily the best night all summer. Big shouts to Daithi for the blistering party set at the end.

My poor Kaoss pad, RIP mister power plug, you will be replaced. The album's available now from Universal, though pick up the pace, it's gonna be a limited enough run of copies.

Next on the agenda is a video for "Hot Summer Joint", and expect to see some remix action (anybody interested in putting out a remix?)

DJ Dano & B-Koz - Live tomorrow night!

Just in case our ruthless promotion machine hasn't got through to you yet, DJ Dano and B-Koz will be performing a full live set to launch their new album tomorrow night (Saturday 21st July) in Club Ensanity at the Orchard.

Albums...


...and singles...

...will be on sale. The show kicks off at 11pm so be sure to get there early for Shindig's biggest night of the year! See y'all there!

DJ Dano & B-koz: Album production completed...

...Bring on the live show.

Making fifty copies of the same cd and printing and cutting all the art work is a pain in the arse.

Every things gone to plan.

Dj Dano & B-koz Album report: Thank fuck

After three long years in the making, I have finally burned off the first copy of "strictly for my coves".
Cheers to tuggy for the bass heavy mastering.

B-Koz & DJ Dano live report

Tugboat here. So we had another decent practice for the upcoming live show today, powered by the assorted amps scattered around DJ Dano's garage.

The setup:

-loops in Ableton on my laptop, going through the Kaoss controlled by Dano;
-Fionn on lead guitar;
-B-Koz and DJ Dano on the mics.

The yet-to-be seen setup (with a week and a half to go, yes indeed):

-Diarmo thumping away on another guitar;
-Brian on another laptop with the visuals.

But it's sounding good and we're gonna give it our all. Practice continues tomorrow.

New music!

The debut release from my new side project Piers Morning. Some minimal/tech-house gubbins, to start what will hopefully become a mini-series of releases on the old internet. It's been aaaages since I just sat down and got some bloody music done, so this is a good wee start for the summer. Give it a whirl - there'll be more from Piers and Tugboat as the summer thunders on.

B-koz & Dj Dano: album report one

I had B-koz over to the studio last week to get some more writing done on this album, which hopefully (almost definately) will be out at some point this summer, (two possible tracks for the album are over two years old).
We got two new songs done in a day, (which is good considering most days we get half a song done).
I was messing around on the tables and played B-koz a Gladys knight track which I cut up and he turned into a hot summer jam that would make Will Smith blush.
The other track was from a hot loop Tugboat made on his laptop with all those fancy bleepy Vst's or whatever the fuck. B-koz dropped gold over it.
Hmm...things to do:

get a proper live show organised

album title (I wanted to use "Fear of a white planet" as mcDevitt suggested yonks ago. too novelty?.)

get the art done and more importantly, the album done.
