Sunday Evening News Flash

This evenings mix is done by Das Kapital. Sent in to commemorate 500 fans on his FB page, nicely done! Go on over and join the fun, heres to the next 500.

Its some electro funk, at times noisy at times smooth, but always FUN!

Catch him playing his favoured brand of NASTY on the Brick City Massive floor this coming Friday at Assembly. Check out the event on FB over here:

Also just to mention the hosts of the Brick City Massive floor. Brick City are a sick brand to be on the lookout for, especially if you're an aspiring Dj looking to crack a winner of a gig. And if your just a party freak, well then your in luck too because they seriously cater for that freaky shit too!

Sunday Morning News Flash

Good Sunday morning, or it could be a bad morning depends on what you did last night!
So it's been a little while since the last mix and people have been asking when are we going to be posting more. So luckily we have something from a really talented up and coming dubstep Dj, called Half-Life. You may have heard of him online via the Brick City Black Edition competition and now you'll get to hear him here.

And he will be appearing at a Rubadub party at the end of October, no details out as yet, but keep an eye on the Rubadub Facebook page for details.

MTTM: Concept Outline

Just a quick reminder to readers and any interested participants of what we are trying to achieve. Minimix To The MAX! is a promotional tool for dj's and promoters or any other electronic dance related brands. All you have to do is mail in a minimix to minimixtothemax@gmail.com The mix must be uploaded to a soundcloud account and be no more than 10minutes long. Include with the mail a small biography (if you a Dj) details of your event (if a promoter, just get one of your Dj's to do a minimix for the party) or of your brand. Also don't forget to include links to group/fan pages and events. We will then send you some art work to upload with the mix (unless you have your own to upload) and then we will post it on the blog and on the Facebook page, with all the links you have provided.

So there have been some questions as to the benifit of a minimix, so let me try answer a few. We not trying to replace normal full length promo's, infact a minimix is supposed to promote the full length promo's as well as the dj, how? Well, you browsing the web/Facebook and are bombarded with promo's and Dj sets of a Dj you don't really know that well. The sets are long and usually large files, so would take time and bandwidth to download (not everyone has 10Mb uncapped internet). So alot of potential new listeners pass on by without ever listening to or getting to know what the new (to them) Dj is all about. So a minimix is something short n small to introduce yourself to new listeners, or in the case of a promoter have a minimix on your event wall (it will appear when tagged via our page) so new clubbers know what kind of music to expect. All they gotta do is press PLAY! Also we are very keen on getting people to listen to different genre's of dance music, stuff they maybe not too familiar with and are keen to just to have a quick listen and see what its about.

Well, I'm tired of typing and I'm sure you are tired of reading, so I think we have covered everything. Any more questions can be mailed to the email add, or get in touch via the
FB Fanpage.

Safe!

minimx To The MAX! Launching-------->

So today's world is all about the smaller the better, the shorter the quicker. Nobody has time for long drawn out movies or thick small texted books That's why in today's world we have 5 minute cellphone shot movies and 140 character twitter "books". So why the hell not for DJ's??? Who really has time to sit through your perfectly constructed rollercoaster of a 2 hour DJ set?? So why not bang out a 10 minute minimix! Cram as many songs as you like, and make that rollercoaser ride, but in 10 minutes! I mean that's all I have time for these days anyway!!

Here's the first of many minimixes by Das Kapital and the inspiration behind the idea!


Minimal Monday Micromix Vol. I by Das Kapital

And be sure to catch him this coming Friday evening at the lastest Brick City Black Edition at Fiction DJ bar. This is a sick as fuck party brand so don't miss out!
