I made a magazine using an online Magazine editor and In Design. It’s all old-school related with lots of music-related stuff and some general chat that isn’t music related. I made this magazine because I like talking about music especially 90s and 00s music from Hip Hop, R’n’B, Jungle/Drum & Bass, House Dance music and more. I will do a new edition every month or I will try to or I will do it when I’m in the mood I haven’t decided yet. Please look for the Spotify logo for playlists and also there are some videos it’s an interactive magazine.
A bit of a change a bit of Jungle/Drum & Bass all vocal and for the summer ahead which is now in less than 6 days and counting oh man ow I love the summer. I did this a couple of months back and it was on the to-do list but I kind of forgot about it which is good as there is a gap between the House music which I’ve been making quite a lot of recently. I called it rave on as my old name was Rave Out and my Twitter name is @raveout85 but guess I should change it to something like gasnolight or something similar. Also to all the people getting their freaks on doing this and that we all must rave on even if you are at the beginning keep going as you never know where it might lead and could end up with your success never mind the downfall cos everyone has one. It’s hard to get motivated once you are stuck in limbo but once out of that rut it becomes easier and every day becomes fun again well it did for me. I’m kind of in limbo at the moment not knowing where this is going to lead but I have hope, strength and determination to overcome the hurdles or at least push the boundaries once more. Being productive in life and doing the best you can do is like going out and having a good time you give 199 per cent you have a good time making memories and you go home and wait for the next best thing to happen as everyone has their ups and downs but it is like partying and you never know who you might meet or see or hear I miss my old life. Rave on also means we must fight bad feelings and overcome the barriers as again everyone is faced with a challenge big or small and I think we can’t sit there and wallow for too long as it leaves you in a bad place and worse off take it from me I may have had lots of highs but that was to make up for all the bad times and to do better in life and live life not sit at home like now but to be honest I’m happy now or though I would like people to bounce ideas off but I’m kind of happy I still want more from life people say I’m being greedy but in fact I just like a good adventure and something to do instead of sitting at home doing nothing it does get numb when I just sit there and do nothing my mind starts wondering off. I can’t sit there in silence though I have to have music playing not always loud it’s mostly quiet but I never got why people would sit in a room in silence for months something ain’t right and anyway who wants to listen to the noisy world around us I would rather listen to music all day every day and all different genres. I guess it’s having music constantly around me from my old house to my day-to-day life and my Walkman it’s everywhere thankfully I don’t know where I would be without music it’s my pain reliever and energizer thank you for the music lol. Â
Another House remix album of new tracks I made within the last couple of months and I fancied doing another remix album as I wasn’t happy with the other one, but I mean it was okay. This is going to be a recurring album of remixes that makes the change from the original tracks and I love making remixes so expect a lot more in the future but every now and then. I called it six-pack remixes as they are meant to be better than the originals but I can’t get it right every time so it’s give and take. It’s kind of funny as I was quite a fit person with a six-pack showing and now it’s just flab but I think it’s important to be happy with whatever you got and try not to feed into the negative of the media but I’m a man so I have no idea what’s it’s like for the ladies and being bombarded with ad after ad it must be bad. I always say it’s the mind that must be fit never mind the body and arms or whatever as being healthy in the mind is better than going to the gym but I must admit I do need some sort of exercise routine. I used to walk a lot and people complain that I walk too fast but I like to get there without all the slowing down and the hold-ups, I wouldn’t mind starting swimming again or hiking. I must admit without a dog I hardly go out for walks as I used to be adventurous and more active but now I like to sit at home and be on my computer, I guess the computer has turned me lazy in a way but I must get out of it and start looking into the world instead of being at home 24/7 but at least I’m entertained right. I’ve been making lots of House and Jungle/Drum & Bass in the last couple of weeks and I am getting ready for the summer ahead. It’s already been gorgeous weather I’ve been using my fan to keep cool as living in a flat can get quite hot it’s like being upstairs in a House when the heating has been on but I love the heat but at the same time I like being cool which is why I bought the fan in the first place but pricy with the electric though. My favourite pastime is listening to summer tracks when it’s hot and I love to listen to certain tracks around summer time hopefully, this album will help you cool off this summer no matter what you are doing. Music has always been a summer thing and is funny how many good times I have had with summer music it’s all about making memories and having a good summer but granted not every summer is going to be a good one. I will be releasing more House tracks throughout summer and some Jungle/Drum & Bass and also some synthy stuff all in the waiting room and ready to be released but some are already been green light so look out for that in the next couple of weeks and also over the summer.
