As most of you know, things don’t always run too smoothly in life and the last week in BluntWorld™ has been no exception. The search for a new Blunt HQ continues, as does the headache that comes with trying to find a vaguely decent place to live!

On top of all this, our very own Agent M has landed himself in a spot of hospital related drama, currently residing in our local krankenhaus sporting some lovely DVT stockings and some delightful plaster-on-limb action….

It’s been a while coming, but the British weather is becoming bearable, barbecues seem like a sensible way of dining, and I’ve got one eye on the next pair of fresh Adidias for the sunshine. All this can mean only one thing. The festival season is back with us. From now through ’til the end of August, you’ll find the family Blunt either working or playing at various festivals, gigs and outdoor parties.

The big one this year is our return to the Rhythms Of The World music festival in Hitchin, Hertfordshire. Essentially, this is a bloody big world music festival with a wicked vibe, and the Messers Blunt running the only DJ stage at the whole event. 2 days in the glorious sunshine, with loads of great music from all over the world, and the Blunt Beats DJs providing the beat-backdrop to the whole shebang with our Urban Picnic Sounds project.

Lets cut to the chase. Write this date down. Saturday and Sunday the 12th and 13th of July. If you can be there, you’re gonna want to be at this festival. More info and ticket details are at the Rhythms Of The World website.

The title of this post perfectly describes next weeks live Allsorts radio show. All manner of beats, hooks and breaks, blended together by Blunt Residents Marcus Hurley, Doug, and J. Seriously, you can expect all kinds of stuff. This one does exactly what it says on the tin.

We always enjoy playing this show here at HQ, as it gives total freedom, with no restrictions, to play whatever we damn well please. Pretty much anything goes. And usually does. But don’t take my word for it, check out some of the previous Allsorts tracklisting posts to see exactly what I mean.

Journeys seem to be the order of the day at the moment. I’ve just come back from the coast, and people I’ve been talking to have been travelling about all over the shop, from Berlin to Bangkok to Brooklyn, to everywhere inbetween. We’ve been busy here at Blunt HQ ourselves of late, dipping in and around the Home Counties and the Capital at various gigs/parties/other such social events.

So, travelling seems to be the order of the day at the moment. It’s probably as time is moving towards summertime, and we’re starting to step out of hibernation, as the days get longer and the beats get blunted. Keeping with this thought, we’ve decided to do our live radio show this week on our popular Destination Midnight theme. As most of you know, this is where we give our Djs extended sets, to allow them to play a personal, indulgent, and wandering selection of music. The sort of stuff, in the kind of mixes, that our more conventional shows may not allow.

It’s gonna be 2 djs, 2 hours apiece, and if our track record is anything to go by on this night, a wide ranging selection of selection of music. Past shows have included jazz, dub, breakbeat, electro, drum and bass, hip hop, funk, and soul (to name but a few genres).

DJs on the night will be Blunt Residents Doug and Agent M. Expect heavy hip hop sounds, latin beats, jazzy grooves, and electronic beats all mashed together.

Tasty digital nourishment was the order of the day on Wednesday’s Electric Noodles show. As the adverts suggest, this is 4 hours of downtempo and electronic music from the Blunt Beats DJs and special guests. Continue reading…
