Anthems of Our Time - (oh fuck it, it's my time)

Here's a selection of beats from my life....



The first is this amazing track from 2006 - It's Mike Foyle - Shipwrecked (John O'Callaghan Vs Mike Foyle Club Mix)



The next anthem is from the past six months, it's from Dubfire (one half of legendary deep house producers, Deep Dish) this is Roadkill (EDX's Acapulco at Night Remix) MASSIVE!



The next big track, personally for me is the track that has got me back being an Trance Addict, after years of being in the Minimal and Electro scene. This is Mungo - Summerblush (Aly & Fila Remix)



Next on the list is this by Sunlounger. Another Day On The Terrace is the first track on Armin Van Buuren's latest Universal Religion Live Album, and it sets the mood for such a organic and special ride. This is the same Intro Club Mix that is on the album. Very Special.



Finally, this incredible track by Above and Beyond - Good For Me (Club Mix). It does not need any further introduction. Get fucking on it!

Having the shits....

In the loo at work (11.15am - GMT) and have got stomach cramps which
ain't too good to be fair. Fucking agony wouldn't come close
describing this pain!

Have said that I will try and do my profile this weekend ahead of what
probably will be a messy week for me.

Also need to give some links to some of my very favourite anthems from
now and from when I was young and naïve!

Peace out

Rob :)

Just to let you know wthat I have had a shit week.

Had a cold for the last week, which has seriously curtailed my plans, for easter. Obviously had to go out for my sister's 30th, which I felt dreadful, but just didn't have the stamina for Holly's 21st, which STILL pisses me right off.

Anyway got an even bigger and mental week coming up, with the LFC playing the bitters this weekend, followed by an date at the new and bigger library against L'Arse for the QF of the CL, which clashes with Claud's birthday get-together, so gonna get Sis to keep me up to date with the latest there.

Oh and then next weekend, (5th April) is my birthday. Hopefully it goes a fuck load better than the last few. I've actually trying to arrange a night out for it.

RARE!

Censorship - How far is too far?

In the last few years there has been concerns in the world we live in
about Freedom of expression and how far can people go, before they go
over the proverbial line.

Could it be that we could live in a global society where you could
slander anyone or anything, providing that you showed evidence to back
your thinking up. Or as has been suggested by certain zealots, that
some things are deemed as too sensitive for comment.

The case of the cartoons which offended Islamic scholars caused
widespread anger and revulsion, got massive media coverage, yet the
cartoons that depict Israel as cannibals and beyond human, although
getting media coverage in Israel, hardly gets any in the Western Media.

Why is that? Surely the media by giving coverage to one group and not
the others is fanning the flames of hate.

By the same token, what rights do organizations and companies in
general have to tell their employees what to think and say. There was
a message from the creator of the Internet, Tim Berners-Lee - where he
has advised youngsters to be careful what they input on social-
networking websites such as myspace and Facebook, as HR departments
might trawl through them and have a nose.

Fucking hell, are we heading towards the sort of society where you are
scrutinised 24/7, regardless of whether you are at work or in the
privacy of your home.

The inclination from Berners-Lee is that you should be careful what
you believe in, what you do out of work, and basically not have a
life, just in case you upset your bosses!

Say your politics were to the left, pro-union, anti-capitalist, anti-
war etc, should we be put into a position where we would have to
conceal that information, to make sure that we got that job.

Talk about fascism by the back door.

FREE TIBET, NOW

Memo to Hu Jintao,

Just fucking do it, you don't want the olympics to become a fucking
side show now do you!

That is what's going to happen if you don't do as the brave Tibetan
people and the world demands you do.

Just another weekend

Decent weekend just gone. Apart from having to do my first Saturday
in over 10 months, which wasn't to be fair that bad, I was invited to
the housewarming of a couple of mates who have been there for
sometime, but haven't had time to celebrate it.

Oh for my own place again. Don't get me wrong, Mum & Sis are great,
but I think they realise that I can only be back home for a period of
time, before the craving for my own space too much.

Busy week again for me. Obviously, we only need to be working four
days, this week and the next. My Sis's 30th on Friday, followed by a
night in Dover for Holly's 21st.

Should be a good week!!!!

Rob :)

Stormy Monday

Afternoon,

I write this on my itouch in the midst of an hectic day at the
office. Decided that I'm going to get another portable exercise bike
to go under my desk here, after using the one I bought at the weekend,
and finding it to be extremely good fun.

Having said that I was going to give you my musical tastes to savour
and devour, I am going to sit down and give you a favour of the music
that has changed me as a person on this planet. Some of it is of the
'hands in the air' variety, some of it is pure gold. And some of them
remind me of moments past.

Speak to you later

Rob :)

Urgent Memo for Tom Hicks and George Gillett

FUCK OFF, YOU FUCKING MONEY-GRABBING CUNTS.

Rob :)

Tim Westwood............Why?

Tim Westwood is 50 years old, for the record that is half my age.

He is famous, as being a relatively good DJ whose reputation went
through the roof, when he got shot, nine years ago. OK, probably out
of order, but still how the fuck can you be raised at a private
cathedral school in Norwich and your father was the Bishop at that
time. Fucking hell.

He has got millions in the fucking back and yet here he is still
acting like he's Tupac Shakur fucking bro, down in South Central.

Why?

Get into your slippers and let someone else make a complete tit of
themselves, Timothy.

Could be worse. Could be Terry Christian, fucking Manc Cunt.

D-Day for America - and for Humanity.

Today is one of the most important days in a generation, as the
electorate of Ohio, Texas, Vermont and Rhode Island go to the polls to
elect their chosen representative for the upcoming elections, eight
months from now.

For Senator Clinton, she needs to win all four, convincingly to have
any chance of getting the democratic nomination, whereas my man,
Barack Obama, only needs good performances in all four to pretty much
win the candidancy in my opinion.

Those on the left around the world need someone that we can rally
around. We can only do that with Batack Obama. Can you honestly say
that with Clinton, with her involvement in the last supposed
Democratic Presidency.

Of course, not.

In The Line Of Fire...

When the MoD yesterday announced that Prince Harry was going to be
pulled out immediately, they inadvendently sent out the message that
some soldiers were more important than others. Implying that their
lives were less precious than a pissed-up hooray henry, who up to now
was doing an fantastic impersonation of Harry Kewell, i.e what the
fuck was he there for.

It was obvious as fuck that they would pull the rich boy out of harm's
way the moment Matt Grudge announced to the world that the third in
line to the throne was indeed doing his bit for Dubya's War on Terror.

Ridiculous.

Get our troops out, all of them.

Rob :)
