First time I encountered them on a compilation and interview by GROOVE magazine.

Gotta love this guys music, a great psychedelic mix  between dub , techno ,leftfield and more and now I found out they do make web radio show:
Juju & Jordash Off Minor radio show #18 by jujujordash
The Off Minor radio show , featuring great freestyle music and moderated by Juju and Jordash with a sometimes very stoned out voice, which I totally dig.

Reallys can only recommend this, could not stop listening to this..

So spark up some nice herb , tune in to their last show :

Just watched a few days ago on ARTE this great movie called Plastic City / Dangkou by Yu Lik-wai (2008)
Its a great movie with good actors and shot strong visual style, which I liked.

.So if you liked City of god or the visual style of 300 .

The movie plays in the asian community in Sao Paulo in Brasil, but gladly is not just another favela guns and drugs copycat of the great City of God, though it involved gang fights, guns, and sex but  drugs dont .

I like especially the shamanistic sequences at the beginning and end, and that this movie lefts one with open questions .

The trailer above shoud give you some idea. More infos on IMDB!

Recommended ! Watch this on DVD!

This is DJ Unbs last mix in the “CALLING” series. Love this and can oly recommend it.

It really shows how versatile and openminded the dubstep style is. That dubtsepp is able to dialogue with so many other styles all united in dee subbass makes it in moment my favourite music genre.

It contains Dubstep infused with Arabic, Cumbia, Tango, Greek, Turkish, Balkan, Swing, Bhangra, Kuduro, Safari and Dancehall inflexions!!!!!!

Now that looks interesting … its ben done before by like of Hexstatic and Coldcut but still we could de with more of 3D.. as long it brings live visuals to more central focus for the party crowd.

A sweet and very creative ad microsite for a turkish bank or similar financial company.
A nice example that online advertising , even for such a boring money subject, can be pretty creative and emational
The design style of the site is “hand-made” in best was.

Anyway a nice example of good online motiongraphics, and creativity

Last Friday I was lucky to see one of the best live bands yes. The Heavy (Ninjatune) were in Cologne, in Gebäude 9 . A nice location I know from doing live visuals with Retinafunk for Pathfinder drum and bass partys.

Anyway the show was rally nice if a bit short…but the band gave 100%.
The band played tight and powerfull, and the singer has a awesome soul voice, remided me a lot of Curtis Mayfield.
One of the few singers who sound live even better than studio.

I shot only very few photos and 1 video:

As I could not find any other Videos from the Cologne gig online, I post this one of the Heavy live:
