Some artists discuss their approach using broad theoretical brushstrokes, while others go much deeper into the specifics of the various tools in their arsenal. Either way, these insights are sure to help producers of all skill levels add intensity and drama to their mixes. |
| Posted: 01 Dec 2008 10:45 AM CST This week's Weekend Weapons piece features an upfront selection from Mobilee Records' Sebo K.

This weekend's gigs saw him embark on a UK-based double header, headlining Phonica Records' huge birthday celebration at Corsica Studios in London alongside Prins Thomas, then traveling up to Liverpool for Mumu @ Club So on Saturday. Here are the three biggest dancefloor destroyers from Sebo K's weekend. |

Running from January 2nd till January 11th 2009 at the stunning beachside location of Playa del Carmen, BPM's clubbers will push on through the pain barrier with a diet of sunshine, upfront techno and summery house music. Poor them. Considering it's in January, there probably isn't a dance music fan out there who doesn't want to leg it to Mexico. |

'Invaders Must Die' became available to download from the band's website just a few minutes ago, and will be up till December 3rd. Our initial thoughts? It's a bit of a disappointment. |
