Woooooooooooooooo!
Dizzee Rascal on Newsnight is definitely worth a watch, Jeremy Paxman referring to him as ”Mr Rascal” has got to be a first. Some nice sentiments and views from Mr Rascal as well. Dizzee Rascal for prime minister yeah?
Some topical alternatives on the Sheperd Fairley ‘Progress’ Obama poster. It got me thinking and I’ve had a little go at making my own design (well getting a skilled fellow Ben too, ideas are more my thing) and here it is…..

A remix of the classic Wassup advert from Budweiser. Love it..
DJ Z-Trip & The Field (not to be confused with Field Music) are mostly what I have been listening to lately. One, and I wouldn’t disagree with this, is considered to be a pioneer in the art of mash-ups. The other is called Axel and a Swedish electronic musician, although I think musical genius would be more apt. Both are excellent. DJ Z-Trip’s Obama mix is sixty minutes of sharp samples, cuts and beats mashed up with speeches and snippets from the great man himself. ‘Sound of Light’ from The Field is a sixty minute long, four track EP (fifteen ish minutes per track) inspired by a stay in Stockholm’s Nordic Light Hotel. It is a luxuriant piece of electronica and at only 79p per track from itunes a bit of a bargain. The Field – ‘From Here We Go Sublime’, which is a firm fixture on my iPod is also a must listen if electronica is your thing.
