Rage Against Florence and the Machine


So I know I've said a few times that I'm going to cut back on making mashups. But sometimes, when I'm in the shower, an idea comes to me that I find so funny I have to do it. So I made my busta rhymes/alphabeat mashup based solely on the fact the videos sort of looked alike but this mashup was made just because of the name. It mixes Rage Against the Machine with Florence and the Machine. Rage Against Florence and the Machine. Clever huh.

The song its self is sort of like a night with me. Seems like it could be a good idea but feels very dirty and has an unsatisfying ending. And lasts about 2 and half minutes.

Valentines Day mix and Facebook

Attention ladies and gentleman I am your saviour.

As you may or may not know next Sunday is valentines day and I’ve created something a little special. One of the things I’ve always hoped to do with my music is show that not all hip-hop/rap is naughty words and violent situations. I decided I would put together a little mix CD with a collection of rap tracks (and some other samples) that show the softer side, specifically the appreciation of the fairer sex. To be honest I could of just of thrown together a bunch of tracks by LL Cool J and Common but I decided to dig a little deeper into my collection (although, there is two LL songs…) (coincidently as I write this I’m also watching a 30 Rock episode which stars Mr Smith)

So for guys I’ve created a CD, injected with my patented charm, which you can give to your special lady to show much you appreciate them. For single girls I’ve created a CD which, when listened to, will hopefully refill your confidence in us and make you feel like the princesses you are. We’re not all bastards, honest.

As well as the CD you can also download the “case” for it. Essentially it’s a design that fills a piece of paper that will keep your CD safe and looking good. Its based on this guide (which you will want to use). There is 4 different versions. Two have a background, two don’t (to save ink). One of each has the guide lines for folding correctly.

If you’d like to support this please feel free to throw a little money towards the British Heart Foundation. Everyone needs a heart.

I’ll also take this opportunity to mention that I’ve set up a facebook fan page. Feel free to join.

Thanks, and happy love day.

Just a little thanks

I just hopped on here to get a link to send to a friend to one my mixtapes and had a look at comments I've missed. It really is lovely to see people saying such nice things about something I've made so I just thought I'd say thanks for all the good things people have said, and taken the time to say.

Thanks.
