I’ve been really enjoying the Cogidubnus mixes of late, so thought it was time I gave them a mention here. Obviously some part of this is because he has been including my tracks in them, but overall, I still think they are at the most interesting end of the mixes that have been appearing on DubstepForum recently.

In fact, ironically, my favourite of his mixes so far doesn’t feature any of my tracks – check out the Voigt-Kampff mix here. No “aggro caveman step” for miles around – just deep tunes all the way through.

His latest “Wheels” mix features my “Chronicles” track. As I’ve come to expect by now from Cogidubnus, it’s a deep mix that takes you on a carefully planned journey through the mellower end of the dubstep spectrum. It’s well worth a download and listen from here.

I dunno… you wait two months for a new tune, and then two come at once!

“Chronicles” is my second tune finished this week. It’s a journey into the deeper side.

Updated Feb 3rd: You can now hear a full preview of it in the webplayer, on Soundcloud, on the Muteqx MySpace page, or you can download a medium quality MP3 for offline listening.

I hope you like it! Drop me an email if you are interested in a 320 promo.

Update: The vocal sample in this track was sung by Katy Theodossiou, and is part of a sample pack by Digifish Music on The Freesound Project. Many thanks to them for the excellent vox!

Hey all, just a quick posting to say that my first track of 2009 is now finished!

“Dark Chocolate” is here to take you on a mellow 2-step tip, with tight drums interspersed between funky keys, soft pads and metallic technoid stabs.

Updated Feb 3rd: I decided I wasn’t totally happy with the mastering on this track, so re-did it today. You can now hear a full preview of it in the webplayer, on the Muteqx MySpace page, or you can download a medium quality MP3 for offline listening.

I think sometime soonish, this may well be part of my first release with the Echodub collective – who I’m just joining.

Maisy, our 20-week old daughter, sat on my lap for much of the writing and mixing of this track, so I thought it was time to introduce her! Ain’t she cute!
