Well, heck, here it is: B&B Podcast # 3.

BY THE WAY – get an appropriate t-shirt here!

Phew, that was a ride: before I started, I fueled myself with some coffee sent to me by a kind fan. Maybe that caused it, but this mix was a bit of a wild ride, and I took more chances than usually when recording (I think this was a good thing) and maybe it can be heard. Hah.

On inspiration

inspiration____

Having made music for 20 years, I’ve learned to not stress about it when you feel like you’ve lost your inspiration.
Give it some time, and it will come to you – but looking for it and spending energy on it doesn’t help very often.
Leave your place of work/art, take a walk, and most importantly, do something relaxing that frees your mind from any sort of obsessive thinking.
That will give your consciousness space, which in turn gives your ideas energy, and you’ll be back on track again.
Just don’t force it.

So here we are with brand spanking new episode of the Breaks ‘N’ Beats Podcast series!
As I kicked it off two months ago, it was my plan to do this every two months or so, so recently I started getting the itch to record a mix, and this is the result.

At this point I also want to say that I’m super hyped about how well the first episode was received, so thanks to all for that.
I’m eager to continue the series, so here we go! (also don’t miss the little merch giveaway this time, which is at the bottom of the post)
As I said, the main focus will be on drum and bass as that is my main love, but there will be other stuff coming, and the next episode or two will be about downtempo and hiphop.

This time, there’s both old and new dnb, just as I always do. I might also add that this is the kind of stuff that I also play out as a DJ and this could well be a set I’d play at a dnb event. Continue reading Fanu’s Breaks ‘n’ Beats Podcast # 2

I love coffee. And, let me admit I love beats, too.

What coffee and beats have in common, in my case, is that I can’t go one day without a good dose of them.
I do have a healthy addiction to caffeine, and I’m a beat junkie – I need that shit.
I have inside of me a huge, burning passion for music with dope beats.
Whatever genre, I don’t care – if the beats are fat and kind of dirty, I’m gonna love it.
And I need my fix every single day. And now I want to get you hooked, too. Continue reading Fanu’s Breaks ‘n’ Beats Podcast # 1
