Review: MI9: A History of the Secret Service for Escape and Evasion in World War Two – by Helen Fry
I randomly found this book on the shelves of Caldicot library. I read a lot of books on U.K. Intelligence services: MI5, MI6 and GCHQ. During the war…. Mt grandfather (GaGa) was in 618 Squadron RAF and 143 Coastal Command. He didn’t really speak to me much about World War 2 itself until quite late… Continue reading

Review: Even Silence has an End – My six years of Captivity in the Colombian Jungle – by Ingrid Betancourt
Ingrid Betancourt was one of the most high profile political prisoners in the world during her captivity in the Colombian Jungle at the hands of the FARC-EP, Colombia’s left wing communist guerrillas.

Review: Altered State – The Story of Ecstasy Culture and Acid House – by Matthew Collin
I’ve already read a Matthew Collin book – This is Serbia Calling – so I was chuffed when I stumbled upon this work, a history of UK dance music culture. As a DJ and Promoter for 24 years I’m quite aware of a lot of the history of dance music in the UK. This book,… Continue reading

Krust – Warhead (Wez G End Of Terror Remix)
This remix I did was originally for a remix competition (that unfortunately I didn’t win). The original Warhead song by Bristol’s very own Full Cycle memeber and dnb pioneer, DJ Krust, was an absolute darkside jungle classic record. It was a real pleasure working with the original stems in my studio. As I was making… Continue reading

Wez G – Shufflin’ It Up (DJ Set 23)
This mix is a little different to usual. I’ve been having some Ableton lessons from DirtBox Crew who play Spiral Tekno & Drum n Bass. I thought it would be nice to whack one of their tunes into the podcast… Trouble is – I usually play about 130bpm house and their music is 180bpm, so… Continue reading
