FROM BEHIND the BUREAU Episode 005!!!

For episode 005, I bring you the start of what I like to call, FROM OUTSIDE the SOURCE. Now don't worry, FBtB isn't slowing down any time soon, what we've got today is still a mix-mastering that'll master your mix fix, but with this one, I'm only supplying the car, not driving it or help guide it in any way. Think full length guest mix. Think featured set. Whatever you think about, just imagine something completely devoid of me. I know, I know, it's a scary thought. But depending on who ends up in the driver seat, we can all still make it there in one piece! We'll have to trudge through this carefully. Don't worry, twas my intention.

If you remember, I had said that episode 003 was a "slight" collaboration between DJ Wraith and I. Well today, I have DJ Wraith himself manning the wheel and boy is this one a doozy. I'll spare you the dramatic details but let me just say, we are lucky to have this mix. Some things you really do just have to be there for.

I really hope you guys enjoy this one. Let me know if the idea of guests scares you or not! Maybe we can make this a thing from time to time! That's the great thing about music, endless possibilities! ✌ #FBtB 

FROM BEHIND the BUREAU Episode 004!!!

Last week wast fast and hard, this week is slow and chill. Complimentary. Like a fine wine with a New York strip. Just the right combination! Whatever your flavor, episode 004's got a nice, smooth flow to it. Ya dig? I sure hope so. ✌

FROM BEHIND the BUREAU Episode 003!!!

Episode 003 is in and it goes tiny bit harder. It's a slight collaboration between me and DJ Wraith. That dude goes hard for sure, and I think you will appreciate the harder vibe. I know I was diggin' on it. Let me know what's up!

FROM BEHIND the BUREAU Episode 002!!!

Episode 002 has arrived! A little late, not technically Friday, but close am I right? No, I'm not actually. All cards on the table, I'm still workin on tryin to balance everything nowadays and time got away from me. happens to all of us but it is no excuse. I set a schedule, I best be ready to follow it. That and I got hungry fans out there to feed! That I know I'm right about. :) So check it out and let me know what you think!

Are You Down With the 'Revolution'?

Hey, so I don't know about you guys but I am not too big on radio. Not the concept of radio, but regular FM radio. It's too repetitive and has way too many commercials. NPR is always good I suppose. :) But I listen to satellite myself, SiriusXM all the way! Whatever you are into, more power to ya, but I say if you ever have the chance, check out satellite radio. I like it because it has a greater variety and is completely devoid of advertising and commercials. A lot of the newer genres and artists I have been introduced recently have come from satellite. To put it lightly, it broadens your horizons. One of the stations that I have always listened to fairly regularly was channel 52 Electric Area. They have always played a nice mix of new and old electronic and house music along with a little more of the heavier, more underground sound of genres like EDM, dubstep, trap, and trance. This is certainly up my alley, but does not appeal to everyone I realize.

Recently though, channel 52 has undergone a slight transformation. It has turned from Electric Area into Diplo's Revolution Radio. Now Diplo, for those of you that know, is one of the leading music producers in the industry and has been for a long time. He has certainly established himself as a guiding force in the electronic music scene and as a seeker of perfected sound on a global scale. The channel has a fairly worldly vibe to it, which is not too far off from what Electric Area put out. The channel overall has mostly the same feel to it as it has always had under the moniker of Electric Area, most people would probably be hard pressed to note too much of a mood shift for the channel and the genre focus remains practically the same. There is a slight difference in the tone and flow of the channel though if you ask me. Slightly more of a focus on trap. Which is not a bad thing for sure. Just something worth pointing out. I'm certainly still gonna listen to the channel. Diplo never done me no wrong! And even if he had, its still Electric Area through and through as far as I'm concerned!

Hopefully I get my wish. I have been looking for the proper platform to launch a freeform radio station for a while now, and I am pushing right now for this to be it. So maybe someday my dreams will come to fruition and you will see this site inherit its own internet radio station. Who knows? Only time will tell.

If you guys wanna check out the channel you can do so here or read about it on Wikipedia. And remember, episode 002 of From Behind the Bureau drops tomorrow! Til then, stay frosty.
