Bangface Mix 2009

Last year we posted a mix of everyone on the lineup of the Bangface Weekender, well we’ve done it again for this year’s lineup.

Yup, we’ve crammed all the artistes into a one hour mix. It took bloody ages to find tracks from everyone, but we think it sounds pretty good, mostly. Some of the mixes are a bit… forced, but let us know what you think.

Update: I uploaded the wrong version of the mix, it had loads of mistakes in it. I’ve updated it with the second take now, and it’s higher bitrate too!

From zombie dubstep, to zombie MSN clients…

A little while ago I wrote about an MSN virus/worm/nasty thing which posted me a link to [my MSN username].historyshotz.com, well it’s still happening! Only this time it’s posting links to various different domains, but it’s the same sort of thing.

Don’t enter your MSN login on these sites!

Some of the one’s I’ve come across recently are, [username].dealsjid.com, [username].holy-offers-batman.com, [username].fddofd.com, [username].so-cool-4u.com, but if any of your contacts start sending you random messages like ‘Hey [username], check out my photos’, then just dissapears offline don’t follow the links!

Gonna eat your brains

A little while back I was watching Planet Terror, an awesome zombie movie by one of my favorite directors - Robert Rodriguez. Near the beginning I noticed a sample which I just had to use for the next Zombierama gig.

I started out writing a pretty cheesy techno tune, which just didn’t work. Then it started going more dubsteppy, which seemed to work a bit better, so I added some more breaks in and voila, ZombieRaveStep!

I call it, Gonna Eat Your Brains. <– click there to download it :)

Grab it while it’s hot, pulsating and covered in puss!

Teknoist @ Hectors House

We’re playing alongside The Teknoist for Zombierama at Hectors House on the 15th of Febuary! It’s FREE entry again, and we’ll be banging out noises between 8pm - 1am.

Also on the lineup are Mrs Mountain Knows, Embedded and more (who I’ve completely forgotten, update coming soon)

It should be an awesome night, I’ve been listening to Teknoist’s new album, …Like a hurricane made of Zombies, loads the past few weeks, should be good to hear some of it live.

Also coming up we’ll have our 2009 Bangface festival mix up, I’m working on it as we speak so check back soon or subscribe to the podcast/feed. If you missed last year’s mix, basically we crammed a tune by everyone on the Bangface festival lineup into a 75 minute mix.

That’s 1.875 minutes per artist, in case you were wondering :)

We’re on at 9pm so make sure you get there early and don’t forget to dress up as a zombie!

p.s it’s FREE to get in.

p.p.s I just published the new Litmus site, go check it out and tell us what you think!

Historyshotz

If someone posts you a link to [yourusername].historyshotz.com don’t follow it. It looks like this:

Screenshot of the historyshotz fake login page.

The domain was only registered today (24th of July) and it asks for your MSN login. It lures you in with the promise of a photo from whoever send you the message, it’s a scam! If you put your details into the page it will log into MSN as you and post itself to your contact list (it probably infects you with some sort of malware if you’re vulnerable too).

The one with the cheesey synth in the middle.

Just finished another tune, this one’s a bit dubsteppy:
