Agro – Sat 21 Jan

parasite — Wed, 18 Jan 2012 08:43:16 +0000

After the resounding success of our collaboration with THERAPY SESSIONS and the JUNGLE SYNDICATE crew we thought we’d switch up the vibe and genres for our next installment of AGRO!! We’ve got some great acts from local to international. From the cutting edge futuristic sounds of VAETXH to the old skool rinse out d’nb sounds of DOM & ROLAND, we’ve got it all for this more experimental version of AGRO. Expect visuals and lighting galore in the main room backed up by the finest quality sound provided by the same TURBULENCE SOUND & STABLE AUDIO link up that made Therapy Sessions sound so sweet!

We’re also very pleased to announce that AVALAF and NEVERLUTION will be facing off upstairs bringing you all things filthy and fun whilst Plymouth night NICHE will be bringing the noise in the corridor!!

Some Mixes For You

parasite — Tue, 12 Apr 2011 13:26:46 +0000

Here are two new DJ mixes featuring some fresh tunes from around the globe. The first was made for Core News:

Time for a new Core News Session. With Core News Sessions #7 I have the honor of presenting you a wicked mix by DJ Parasite of Deathsucker Records. The mix consists of sweet raggacore and breakcore tunes that makes you want to put on those old raving shoes. It has been some time since I last listened to this kind of music, but I really enjoyed this mix. Parasite also runs the music shop dswat.net where I have shopped records many times. In addition to releasing this mix today it is Parasites birthday. Happy birthday Parasite!

The second mix is my DJ set from Bristol Dub Club @ The Black Swan on Friday 8th April 2011. Big up all the crew who were representing; Hytalbosrah Soundsytem from Birmingham, Jah Lokko Sounds, Neverlution, Deathsucker, Life4Land, Jungle Syndicate, Meganeural & everyone who was there & everyone who couldn’t be there & Tappis for the intro. Bless.

Bleep Bleep Bloop: Music and Video Games

parasite — Thu, 10 Feb 2011 14:01:38 +0000

Some music I made for Savage Moon: Waldgeist was featured a BBC Radio 4 programme Bleep Bleep Bloop: Music and Video Games, broadcast on Tuesday 15th February at 13:30.

“Not everything good in games music resembles a film score…” – James Hannigan

Download audio file (bbcradio4-bleepbleepbloop.mp3)

Games Designer Paul Bennun explores the growing popularity and ambition of music composed for video games.

Video games now have the resources to match that of the big Hollywood orchestral film scores. But it’s not just commercially that video game soundtracks are taken seriously. Composers are becoming more interested in it artistically and BAFTA and the Ivor Novellos have recently recognised the form with their own award categories.

Bennun traces the development of this new genre and finds out how it is changing the way music is made and consumed. Has it now left behind bleeps and bloops and arrived at the brink of artistic respectability?

Feature in M Magazine

M Magazine (PRS) ran a feature in their December 2010 issue about music in computer games entitled “Game On”. The article features comments by myself and other composers working in the computer games industry. If you are a member of the PRS you will have received a copy. For those of you who aren’t, you can read the article here: Page 1, Page 2, Page 3 & Page 4.

Eat Them! Out Now on PS3

parasite — Wed, 22 Dec 2010 15:06:02 +0000

Eat Them! out now on PlayStation3/PlayStaion Network, gives gamers the chance to create and bring to life colossal monsters in order to flatten entire cities and feast on their inhabitants. Eat Them! was developed by FluffyLogic and released on PlaystationNetwork for PS3 in December 2010.

I was head of sound design in charge of creating and balancing the sound effects, composing music and licensing tracks. This involved creating over 100 sfx for the game, 5 original tracks plus a bunch of end-game short pieces, as well as making them all sound right in-game. I was also in charge of currating the in-game music, which was licenced from Deathsucker Records, Broken Robot Records and Broken Records.

Other confirmed DJ’s include DJ/Rupture and Shitmat.
