2xU

New mix up on GLradio and today we lace your good selves with some Drum and Bass from our good friend Double U. This set was recorded Back in April on one of Double U’s very own nights at the Masonic Hall.
No track listing I’m afriad.
So…Crank it, Drop it and Enjoy.
More Mixes from Linkwood Family, MXM and James Baker coming soon.



Whilst vegtablising myself in front of the TV last night I caught an advert for Carphone Warehouse; who obviously deem minimal techno mainstream enough now to put in there ads(Ohh the grannies will lub it!). I kinda liked the tune in the background so hopped on-line to find out what it was and in my research managed to dig up this on youtube.
The track is called Hitchhikers Choice by Minilogue; it’s video is pretty much the same as the advert so I assume a lazy ad exec thought, wow that’s cool, I’ll get these guys to make my ad then pass it off as my idea! Job done.
It’s stop motion using a white board and the Swedish artist ljudbilden has a blog which can be found here

Regardless of lazy advertising executives the original video and tune are great. So here it is.
Enjoy.
