Mondo Sessions Vol. 01

Thursday, June 8th, 2006

Mondo Sessions Vol. 01It’s hard to nail down just a few tracks as so many of these are huge club moments and have been supported by many of the worlds top DJs. There are some real exclusives however, such as ‘Reflections’, ‘Tomorrow Never Comes’ and ‘Hold Me Till The End’ from the forthcoming DT8 Project album ‘Perfect World’.

Mike also delivers some hot new tunes that are not due to be released for months – such as his massive collaboration with POS (aka Paavo Siljamaki from Above & Beyond) ‘Untitled Audio’, and Mark Pledger (from Smith & Pledger) with the huge ‘Ultraviolet’.

Monday, June 5th, 2006

BT is about to release a new album called ‘The Binary Universe’ which will be available in DVD format. In this new release we’re all going to her a unique set of sounds as Brian used instruments prototyped in C-Sound which was later rebuilt in Command Line and X-Code.

Unfortunately there’s no track list available for this album and there’s no release date as of yet; only time will tell us when this will be coming out. One thing is for sure! I personally will be looking forward to this one…

Updates Rolled Out!

Friday, June 2nd, 2006

You have probably noticed that many things have changed around here. Firstly, I got rid of the black theme I made for this website because some people didn’t like it, I know some of you will miss it but I’m sure everyone will like the current theme, K2. It’s got some really amazing features built into it and it’s clean.

Furthermore, I have also got rid of the poll, not many people used to vote so it was just there wasting space on the website. Also, when you post a comment you can have your own avatar, simply create an account at Gravatar and upload your avatar; when you want to leave a comment use the same Gravatar email address you registered with for your avatar to appear.

I’ve also added a new section to the website called Archives. You can browse through previous posts through the categories or date classification. I suggest you use the lovely Live Archive AJAX feature; it makes the navigation really friendly!

Finally, make sure you stay tuned; we’ve got some awesome album reviews coming very soon. Just keep checking back sometime next week (Or maybe this weekend), I will be adding the review section and we will already have some great reviews for you to read!

Update: The review section is fully functional!
