Here are some deep house cuts for you to enjoy over the weekend, can never get enough good house music on these late summer evenings, the sun has resumed subtly setting earlier and earlier each day, yet the air is still warm and balmy, smelling like the beach no matter where you are. Motor City […]
Ryoji Ikeda, AC/DC, Tricky, Public Enemy
After my last, dubstep-focused post, I contemplated different angles from which I could approach my guest-blogger status here on Blog.H34. Should I be the ‘dubstep guy,’ bringing the hottest new dubstep tracks? Should I be a dubstep-slash-ambient specialist, since I focus my creative energy on those musics? Should I do ‘genre’ posts, showcasing different styles […]

Apologies for the relative lack of activity around here since last week when I posted the 5ifth Element mix, but I hope you got a chance to check it out, along with my Mount Vision ambient mix posted a couple weeks ago. I spent the weekend in DC with a bunch of old college buddies […]
5ifth Element – Deep House Mix
“…And then the four elements come together, they create…the 5ifth Element.” This is my newest DJ mix, and my fifth released as Alex / HeadUp.

I’m excited to share these with you because they’ve been getting a lot of play on my speakers recently. DJ Koze – 40 Love Kompakt just released the tenth installment of […]
The Rorschach Suite
Here’s an example of an album that still makes you feel the same as the first time you listened to it. Back in the fall of 2006, I came across a compilation on iTunes called The Rorschach Suite, a chance meeting with the young record label Moodgadget, and an album that changed the way I […]

Pinch, Ramadanman, James Blake, Spatial
Pinch – Punisher DJ Pinch aka Rob Ellis is the founder of Tectonic Recordings, one of the premier dubstep labels out of the UK, as well as being a pioneer of the genre itself. His style is not always the wobbly and dark stuff one expects from labels such as DMZ or even Tempa, as […]
New ambient mix/photos: Mount Vision
I was in central New York this past week, visiting family near Cooperstown where I spent my childhood growing up. We stayed at my Grandma’s house in Mount Vision, NY, a beautiful house with equally beautiful surroundings– pine forests, shaded streams, massive fields, blue skies, undiluted starry nights, etc. This mix is my attempt to […]

Percussion Lab Relaunches!
So, I’m back from a very relaxing and inspiring week/end in Cooperstown and Mount Vision, NY. I will be posting some of the creative output I produced while immersed in the natural beauty of the area of my childhood later in the week (as soon as the photos are developed and processed). One thing that […]
