Bit late I know but I've been moving house & tings!
Here's the last show of my second academic year! Eeek scary times.
The Monday Night Mix came from up and coming Bristolian DJ & Producer WOZ.
Here's what he had to say for himself
what is your real name? (if you give it away)
Ash Westlake
when did you start djing/producing?
Ive been producing for almost two years and djing for four years.
who/what are your major influences?
I think the city of Bristol has a big part to play. I always get loads of ideas just standing at the back of a rave in Bristol. I take a lot of influence from older garage and jungle, i also try and listen to a lot of word music beacause the instruments and rhythms are amazing.
what are your favourite djing or production tools?
I'm not gunna say too much but i use logic and ni maschine.
what are you hoping to achieve in the long run/ whats your ambition?
I just want to be making music for the rest of my days, enjoying it and hopefully make a living out of it. I'd also like to travel the world djing.
what projects do you have lined up?
At the mo I have an e.p coming out soon on London label 'blackbutter records'. I also have another e.p due late August on Bristol label 'dropdown records'. Both of which im overhyped for! :)
who would you love to or dream to collaborate with? (can be as real or phatastical as you wish)
I'd love to make a track with Shystie, just to make a hard club baanga.. Producer wise id love to work with Mumdance, i love everything he makes.
Dream wise i would have loved to have made a track or just be in the studio with man like J Dilla (RIP). Dude's a Hero and a Genius!
what are your favourite ways to find new tracks?
Radio is usually the one for me if not i'll just check the hype on twitter or keep onto artist mixes.
who do you think we should keep our ears out for in 2011 (excluding yourself ha)
Melé's smashing it at the moment!.. A good friend of mine who goes by the name 'NightDiving' needs to get the attention he deserves this year! and just watch out for the new genre 'Moombahton', gunna destroy the clubs this summer!
