Its been a good year here at streetbeats i think. Theres been many many positive notes and not too many disasters. I'd like to thank all the crew that have helped push the message forwards, we've had some new recruits to the camp namely Exxon, Strike (back from the dead!!), Bobule , Stevie D, Fracture & Neptune, Filter, Paradox and Kirsty and Terry, all of whom have proved to be heros in their own right within our various projects. Love as always to the big two, namely Jay (i love you!!) and housemate Ben (love you also!!) together we have managed somehow to keep things going in the face of adversity.Love also to ZnO, come on guys lets do it this year finally.....
Money as always has been a fucker this year but somehow i dont think that 2002 was supposed to be about money, that will come in 2003. We've still got various distribution and manufacturing problems but lets hope that these things will iron themselves out. The music has gone from strength to strength this year and again without all the boys taking various responsabilities from my narrow shoulders this wouldnt have been possible.
Theres been a few low points but hardly serious, i was gutted to lose my close friend Mr Unsane from ZnO at first but with the arrival of Stevie D this has turned out for the better (getting writing Dunk baby!!). Record sales have been up and down but at the end of the day we're still here with a fistful of labels to our name in various genres of music. Beat Jam has been a resounding success and lets hope that we can keep this up.
Congratulations to my girlfriend Aurora who got her first full release on the
recent "Swear" compilation cd.Massive thansk to all you Subverts who on low days, keep me thinking that all this is worth while.In particular i'd like to give a mince pie to Statto, Altered Ego, Linus, Tresspass, Little Nemo, Dan J, Nexxi & the Gain Kru, Smoking Monkey, Sir Loris of Australia, Fraccers and Neppers, Techtonic, Grizzly, Emtek, Boneca, Filbert, Mattrick, Formula Inc, Scart Ridge, Diddywahdiddy, senses, score, Jake, Naphta, Kingsley Marshall, and Genki...also anyone i missed out, you know who you are..........
a big fuck you to the non believing shit stirrers...no names, lets just say again, you know who you are.....
I think things could be cool for us next year..... I'm feeling that now Sb are more driven, more positive and more positioned than for any other year known to us. Ready to tackle the filth of the music industry and maybe play them at their own game, who knows???
Massive shouts to all you Subverts here.
we're all a part of something very important in some way. some kind and in some place.....
