THIS IS A STATEMENT

2009-12-30T01:54:00.000Z

This is what I think about Mayhem playing, Major Lazer, Fake Blood and Rusko.

Following them by MGMT, Razorlight and some other random indie tune.

A picture really does say a thousand words.

WOAH!

2009-12-30T01:48:00.000Z

I just like this picture.

In other news I'm pretty sure that after my Christmas abscess,

I've managed to crack one of my back teeth and when man bites down now,

I feel a new pain.

Nice.

But still, yeah....Christmas.

Done, it was fun and I just the entire Justice - Cross The Universe DVD.

And it is fucking awesome.

I'm sitting here now with a a single malt, a bottle of champagne, an empty stella can and a box of celebrations with a big smile on my face because I'm about to smash into The Inbetweeners box set!!

It is fair to say I'm a happy man, and the blog is well and truly back.

2009-09-25T23:49:00.002+01:00

A survey by the dance music website Data Transmission and Pioneer Pro DJ has polled Erol as the Uk’s favourite DJ for the second year running.

Here’s what they said:

He’s done it again!

Without canvassing for votes or any kind of campaign, Erol Alkan has beaten off all competition to be crowned The UK’s Number 1 DJ for a second year running by you lot. It was a very closely-contested battle this year, with not a lot in it between the top two – trance trio Above & Beyond jumping 3 places up to the runners’-up slot.

Sander Van Doorn came as the highest new entry, with Axwell and Gareth Emery also entering alongside Skream – showing that dubstep is big news these days. With Andy C galloping up the poll and Chase & Status also a new entry, drum & bass’s excellent form has also been reflected. And big commercial names David Guetta and Tiësto leapt up the charts following their increasingly mainstream pursuits of the last year – while the underground still makes itself heard with techno god Sven Väth crashing into the Top 10 and Dubfire the year’s highest climber.

The UK’s Top 40 DJs (last year’s position in brackets)

1. Erol Alkan (-)

2009-09-22T07:30:00.000+01:00

How do you wake up from a nightmare, when you're not asleep?

2009-09-22T03:33:00.001+01:00

I feel things quite intensely, which is why the music has to be so intense. I’m either really sad or really happy, I’m tired or completely manic. That’s when I’m at my most creative, but it’s also dangerous for me. I feel I could write some good songs, or break some hearts. Or tables. Or glasses.

THAT MOMENT

2009-09-22T03:25:00.001+01:00

When you think you might just of got everything right, I get that not a lot but when I do almost every single time something crashes or fucks up or doesn't come through or someone says something and you think.......

'Fuck'
Then I think fuck it I'll make a tune, then Ableton crashes, thats the moment when you give up and shut up!

I only fuck with techno

Summer done (I know I've said too many times now but still) and this annoys me,
I had fun in the fields of 1234 and Offset Festivals.

Fun on Bora Bora Beach never seen so much tits and ass before in my life.

Experienced life changing moments on the dance floor of Amnesia witnessing the power of Richie Hawtin and Cocoon. Ripped the shit out of the sound system at Eden.

Met idol after idol.

Got loads of free shit.

Converted to Logic.

Discovered that finders really does mean keepers.

Realised that Kirten Dunst is really really fit.

Confirmed to the world that Katie Price (Jordan) or whatever, isn't.

Had a rude boy idea for a T.V. show.

Learnt loads of lessons.

Slept on the best mattresses but then again I did sleep on some of the worse.

Met some pretty awesome people too.

No I'm not getting soft and this isn't a round up more like a big up.

Because as shit as it was, it was also one of the best and we can't go back to 2002 so this is it, or should that be was it.

I'm sure when I get a second to actually think about it properly I'll realise,

yeah....it was sweet!
