4 Years ago today we lost my good friend and mentor Phil Western. Phil inspired and taught me a great deal and remains one of my favourite musicians of all time. Phil made a lot of different kinds of music and for this one I kinda drew inspiration from his long runner old school techno  "get lost in the drift" type thing, notable inspire by his tune "The Sign" which is one of my all time favourites. Phil started doing yearly tributes to his lost friend Dwayne Goettel whom I never got to meet but he continued them for more than 20 years as I knew it meant a lot to him and I hope to do the same for his memory. Please do yourself and Phils daughter a favour by going to his bandcamp, clicking on any release and select "Buy Digital Discography" for 30$ Its a truly staggering amount of work for that price and remains some of my most treasured music of all time. I miss you buddy I think you would have got a kick out of this. This tune is all done with hardware analog synths as he would have appreciated. Turn this one up for Phil and get lost in it. He was the loudest monitor abuser I've ever encountered haha. Hope you like it buddy we love you... Also sorry if your names Bethany but that sample is too funny.

This one’s special— one of my 2025 birthday sets, recorded live at Heart Beat Silent Disco on 7/20/25. 

I poured my heart and all my current favorite grooves into this mix, with the freshest bass funk tunes and a few collabs from some of the producers who keep me jamming and my dance floor moving.

It’s an incredible blend of bass, funk, and cosmic vibes, designed for friends, dancers, and anyone who just wants to get weird and joyful AF. Whether you catch some of your new favorites with these solo bangers or those tracks where artists team up and flip the energy into a new dimension, I hope you feel the same joy I did throwing down behind the decks!

Massive thanks to all the DJ producers who crafted and performed these so I could come to your show and steal all your vibes ;). Ya'll are amazing! 

Thanks for celebrating with me and for keeping the funk alive. Let me know which track hit you hardest, and crank it up wherever you are. <3

Much love,
—shinobisweed

Shout outs Kermode for letting me remix his tune Chameleon! Special thanks Woofax for the master on this one too. Had a lot of fun making this tune. Here's some energy to roll into your New Year with. Enjoy. Stay safe and rad. I've always wanted a Chameleon, the way they walk back n forth with their mitten hands. I've always wanted a Chameleon, but they need a lot of room and they don't like noise...

Chameleon - Kermode - Longwalkshortdock Remix

Longwalkshortdock esentially started the first time Dave King heard gritty electronic music in early eighties videogames. Strongly influenced by these sounds and melodys, Dave started recording and looping segments as a child. He also got a taste for sampling and recording; taping segments of his piano practice to fool his parents into thinking he was practicing in the other room when he was really playing nintendo (note : actually practicing might have served him better). Currently, a veteran of sound design and electronic music production for well over a decade, Longwalkshortdock's music has stepped into a genre of its own. Heavily influnced by early 80s video game music, metal and rock music, found-sound and vintage analog synthesis, he stacks layers of melody in his tracks until they implode and reform. Heavy drums and aggresive synths join forces with rolling grooves and melodic lead lines to create a wide variety of slamming dance floor originals. Lesser known fact : Not limited to dance music, LWSD's music crosses into many territories. His vast catalogue of hundreds of songs dives into ambient, IDM, electro, acid, house, big beat, indie rock, drones, electronica and down tempo. Dave holds two degrees from the Art Institute of Burnaby for Music Recording and Production. Playing songs and remixes he wrote and produced, Longwalkshortdock performs live PA with live vocals, synthesizers, drum machines, guitar, effects, toys, computers and even some of his own strobes and lighting. Know for his increadably "enthusiastic" performances, longwalkshortdock creates an undeniable stage presence and visceral experience at a show. Break through performances at Soundwave 2009 and Shambhala 2010 have made LWSD an artist to watch out for. He was even recently featured on the legendary Annie Nightingales pod cast on BBC radio 1 as a result of a review received about his "smashing" Shambhala 2011 performance. Longwalkshortdock has performed live with the likes of Phil Western (Download, Skinny Puppy, Kone) and opened for talented artists like, MSTRKRFT, Opiuo, Junkie XL, Vibesquad, Alex Patterson (The Orb), Mimosa, Adam Freeland, Shout out out out out and Matt the Alien too name a few. Always working to enhance and upgrade the LWSD live experience Dave is currently in the process of collaborating with veteran of visual wizardry Tim Hill of RIM Visuals. Using at least 10 projectors loaded with custom content, the live LWSD experience is nothing short of a full venue transformation into a etherial and immersive light cube of doom! Longwalkshortdocks second self-released record entitled "Bigger Fish Frying" follows up on his debut album "Casual Tea" with many signs of progress and promise. Final point of note : Did you know they found him in a cave on the moon? Thats what i heard...
