The Kelly Twins – Mix for In:Motion, Weekly Dose 2
Identical twins, Sean and Dan Kelly, played this set for In:Motion about 4 months ago in Bristol as well as doing it for Bass Music Blog. Originally from Plymouth they have moved on the the Bristol Circuit being promoters and residents of UFO Bristol, Crazy Legs (Bristol Bass Night) and working at the Idle Hands record shop. The mix itself is just really awesome..! You get an absolute sense that they are playing music because it is fun!! It is an eclectic mix with old and new, moving from spacey noises to funky vocals to 80s electro to the centre of Berlin to 8 bitty and swinging through several genres of electronic music. Its as if they have thought “hey I like that track…lets mix it in” and it works! It gives the authenticity that 2 people that really care about music have put this together for everyone to enjoy on a dance floor or sitting in their bedroom. I know they are 2 people who have grown up mixing, I read in an interview that they got their first decks at age 14 and residency at 16! It really shows in this mix and I can understand why they are doing so well in Bristol…hopefully soon we will see them all over the country. Have a listen and enjoy your weekly dose of great music…..

From the Donky Pitch side will be blessed with the return of…..Slugabed!! Why would you miss this when it is free and with lots of awesome music? The EP taster of Slugabed’s is posted below, it really gives a taste of what he is, and what Donky Pitch is all about! Exciting and experimental electronic noises that gel together to make great hip hop beats that stem from the post J-Dilla sound. The production of his bass/dubstep music is getting close to flawless. It is just made for dancing. Its diverse and refreshing to watch live…so side by side with Idle Hands it will prove to be an electronically action packed night.
