iPhone/iPod interface launched for DnbRadio

main menu: DnbRadio iPhone  DnbRadio on iPhone Now that they’ve gotten their feet wet offering mobile interfaces for WM5/WM6 platforms, DnbRadio has just launched their iPhone/iPod Touch friendly version of the site.

The iPhone-mimic interface has large buttons for easy touch navigation and playback.

The streaming features utilize the Quiktime playback functions that already exist on the phone so there are no additional software downloads needed to listen to the live shoutcast streams or the podcast links.

Further plans for the interface include song tagging, favorites, and rating right from your device. Take a look for yourself!

Drum and Bass on your mobile (WM5/WM6)

DnbRadio on your smart phoneDnbRadio.com has created a new web portal that caters to the mobile community. The new site features a flash player button useful for playing the stream directly in your browser — works if you have Adobe’s PocketFlash (or variant) installed. Other options for live listening are the various playlist file formats that include the server addresses that are supported by most stream-capable players such as Core Player (freeware) and the fully featured PocketPlayer which requires registration for continued use but is worth the small price if you are interested in podcast/feed streaming.

More links further down on DnbRadio’s mobile page are more podcast links to their top ten mix downloads as well as the main feed link that you can copy/paste to your RSS reader or podcast. I was able to plug dnbradio’s rss url’s into my PocketPlayer which brought up a list of all the latest DnbRadio episodes. I was able to click an item from the list and immediately begin playing it.

More to come at the mobile site are customizable mix playlists and feeds that let load your chosen playlist of mixes directly to your player.

Fear and Loathing UK/EU Tour

fear-ekka.jpg
High Rankin & Monsta’s:Fear and Loathing UK & EU Tour… 3000

The basic premise for the tour is to find ourselves spiritually through a demented haze of booze, jungle and mind expanding narcotics! But where could we be?! Maybe in a tea shop tucked away on the Cornish coast or perhaps lurking in a seedy London back street. It’s almost certain we wont know until we have a look.

High Rankin hailing from the Breakbeat Kaos and Dogs On Acid camp will provide the sound track while the ever excitable Monsta, known for his work with Metalheadz and Dogs On Acid with be putting pen to paper in the far out way that only he knows how.

Under cover of stupidity the couple plan to set off in a Winnebago armed with nothing more than foolish dreams of comic ideals, plenty of booze and a big back of dub plates.

High Rankin will also be providing a written account of the exploits in his off key, gonzo hand and the edition of a video camera isn’t a bad idea!

This will be gonzo journalism jungle style and should make for interesting reading accompanied by Monsta’s fantastic artwork.

Oh also a key factor is that we have never actually met!!

ShadyBrain Goes Vinyl!
.shadybrain has been around for more than two years now. In this time we have released more than 40 tunes from a large pool of international artists including Phace, Pyro,Misanthrop, N.Phect & Dizplay, Bad Robot, Dementia, Robot Death Squad, Stare, Nocturnal, Catacomb, Milo, Polarity, and many more.

The first release is gonna be:- SHADYBRAIN 001 -

A - Catacomb - Buried Alive (Misanthrop RMX)
Misanthrop is one of the scene’s most promising producers and is sure to gain much attention with releases on Teebee`s Subtitles and Mayhem`s Shadow Law. In this tune, a simplistic intro gives way to a devastating drop that takes no prisoners. The tension continues to build as the heavy reece and epic stab call back and forth, taking the tune far further than just the drop. The man of the hour delivers another perfect example of dance floor terror that will punish any venue.

AA - Misanthrop - Strange Planet (Catacomb RMX)
Canada`s finest Catacomb has been heard previously on labels such as Darkitek and Citrus. With this Remix they have taken their work to another level. Angelic pads and soft textures mislead you through the intro until the vocal hook drops and a wall of sound smashes through the midrange with crisp drums. The track progresses into a halftime second break down, showing why Catacomb are to be watched closely.
