My DJ course as a free download
After spending the best part of 10 months putting a course together for an on-line college, I decided that the finished product would be more beneficial as a free download in the hands of whoever wanted it. Learning to DJ is part practical and part theory. My course is pure theory with Youtube links to… Read more

DJ Mixes from Best of 2012
I’ve done 3 mixes using the best of my favourite tracks from 2012. Indie is what it says on the box – and it’s very danceable. Comedown is for all the slower and thoughful tracks. Bleep is just dance. I would usually do my traditional Indiebleep Mix, but there was too much material this year.… Read more

70s Kicks is out
My second compilation for the year has just been released and will be in-stores from next week (5 November 2012) The idea behind it was to create a 70s selection that wasn’t disco, pop or Eurovision inspired.

Old Johannesburg blog
I’ve been writing a blog on old Johannesburg for the past few years that was initially inspired by finding out the house we live in was almost 100 years old (it’s officially 100 now). I went on a mission to find a photo of the house as it was back then which led to the… Read more

There is one more for 2012 coming at the end of October (70s Kicks) and another two planned for 2013 (4AD and Indiebleep 2). They’re snapshots of another time and place. Very proud of them. Madam F did all the… Read more
