Random

...I havent written a random blog in a while so...here goes...

 so...I love reading Mike Skinners blog...he writes like he is doing the voice over for the end of the incredible hulk (the tv series) when david banner is walking into the sunset and they have that music playing (80s baby... if you dont know what I mean link is below) its like broken, profound sentences...so...here's my attempt...

(Play the video this as you read it for the right ambience - very low though...shouldnt distract..)



 ...Went to Kaleem Taylors EP launch tonight...The arrangements from the band were amazing...made me think...maybe ill get complex with my band...or maybe my simplicity is what makes me...me....or not...maybe...

...its funny how people you think are so amazing, talented, & together get just as nervous as those without talent..who should be nervous before shows...as they are about to display there lack of talent...and they probably know it...or not...

...when I perform, I get nervous for the organization of events..just because Im a control freak...who isnt in control of something I am involved in....apart from that...its excitement...

...I met quite a few supporters who recognized my face...never quite know how to take it....they know my face from somewhere so they look at me sideways and point.....I look just like my brother so I look at them sideways...wondering if they recognise me...or think they are recognising my DJ brother...always a viscous cycle of recognition....

...one of said supporters said that they always read my blog...which inspired me to update it with this...they said they always say my name and use my "work ethic" to inspire them....which inspires me...and makes me feel like keeping up the "work ethic"...a viscous cycle of inspiration...

 ..feel like Ive said too much....bedtime...

Incisive : Hello (Official Video)

Another Fresh song and video from my New video. Song produced by Vol, Video edited by me....enjoy!

Incisive : Notting Hill Carnival Performance.

I have lived in notting hill ALL my life so the Notting Hill Carnival is an integral part of me - I have to travel to get AWAY from it.   I have seen it from the days Tim westwood used to be under the tent for Radio 1 & brought down american artists such as Wu-Tang Clan, Biggie, Lil Kim, Busta Rhymes, Common (When he was known as Common Sense)...it has ALWAYS been my dream to perform at carnival.

Seeing as Tim Westwood is no longer there and the infamous Rampage sound werent on this year, I believe the main stand for most artists to perform at this year was Mastermind Sound.  I was lucky enough to be asked to perform "This Groove" alongside Shakka so jumped at the opportunity and I loved.every.second.of.it. - Footage Below

In-Ci-Sive Official Video

Sup People...yes...ANOTHER video. (Told ya, it was Video Season)

So this one was a bloody hard one to execute.  As you can see, I wanted to do emulate the late, great Michael Jacksons "Black or White" video (The end part at least, cant really do the whole locking and crotch grabbing right now).

So I done a bit of research in how I was going to do the morphing (I edit alot of the videos myself - including this one) and once I figured it out, contacted everyone I could to come down to be in the video.  The problem was that it was the week before Christmas and so EVERYONE was busy as hell with work and last minute christmas shopping after work. 

This meant that I couldnt do a one day shoot - instead, I had to literally have an open shoot all week and have people come in as and whenever they could.

Some people couldnt make it which was fair enough but shoutout to those who could - amoungst others from the music world, G.R.E.E.Ds , Remel London, Nadine Charles, E plus , Kadija Kamara, Meleka, Shakka, Mr Hooli who all had to, learn around 4 bars of the song, on the spot, and deliver to the camera.

After the shoot, I went to Ghana for a week, and edited the video whenever I had free time - the issue with this video is that the morphing takes AGES - each one about 40 minutes and there are 30 morphs in the video.  This is before I have even decided what to use....

I think the end result was worth it though - hope u enjoyed it....

nice
