S-Factor?!?!?!!!!!!

April 28th, 2009 / 1 Comment » / by Vortex

And i thought ‘Sense of Home‘ was bad. It has been brought to my attention there’s this new
series going on back home called ‘S-Factor’.

I seriously just think it’s degrading and an insult to proper intelligent women of our country.

Seriously, what are the producers or even mediacorp thinking?!
This is seriously taking the piss. Maybe it’s another propaganda to attract ‘foreign talent’.
‘Oh yah, let’s do a show and show the world how stupid SG girls are’
‘Yeah! That will get them to come since our girls are so easssyyyyy. That will attract all the foreign talent!’

GROSS, DISTASTEFUL, DIGUSTING, PATHETIC, EMBRASSING are just some words i would used to describe this.

London is really quite obsessed with twitter, period (so is the rest of the world now, i guess).
I mean..they even created a ‘gadget’ for twittering.

Anyways, i’m not really bothered about the technology bit…but it sure makes me wanna take a bus down to shoreditch to buy some of those yummy looking cupcakes and pastries!

Fabric Live 44 - Commix

February 26th, 2009 / No Comments » / by Vortex

In case you haven’t heard me raving about this mix yet. This is a definite must get!
It’s been a while since i heard a mix this consistent and full of quality tunes.
The last one i felt so strongly about, was probably the Kemistry (R.I.P) and Storm K7 Mix cd which came out about 9 years ago or so?!
Of course, there were a couple of jems along the way as well like the DSL and Andy C Nightlife series amongst others.

Commix brings to the mix the current crop of ‘deep’ producers from the likes of D Bridge, Lynx, Instru:mental and more. This mix definitely showcases a totally different side from the usual drum & bass party music. The term ‘Intelligent Dance Music’ can actually be applied here once again. (How long ago did we last used that term even?!!).

Go buy the cd from your local store now or get it from Fabric!

And here’s my favourite tune from the mix…also the last closing track in the cd.

…let it snow…

So..i’m sure you must have read / seen the news about the heavy snow here in the UK.
News about the public transportation practically coming to a halt…all cause of snow.
Schools all getting closed. Shopping stores in Oxford Street closing early even!

I think most people actually enjoyed it :)
Most of us didn’t need to go in office, since the public transport wasn’t working at all.

So here’s what most people did…have fun!!!

Just look at the amount of photos in flickr taken from monday!
