Michael Forrest has hooked up with us here at DT for the grand unveiling of his track ‘Infinite London’ s rework from fellow rising stars Chik Budo complete with trademark sax appeal to celebrate the release of his app based album earlier in the month.

An app based album? What is that? we hear you cry, well wonder no more as we’ve got the skinny on how it works so here it is: Instead of releasing this music as fixed recording, Forrest composes musical structures in code and chance, creating a listening experience that is different every time. This form of musical expression, never feasible as a release format before the age of smart phones, moves into worlds first explored by Brian Eno and Bjork - Forrest’s work here proves that there is still much to be discovered.
 
The app itself allows listeners to influence the music, as well as to save and share their favourite moments - moments that would otherwise be lost forever in the infinite possibilities. Anybody who doesn’t have a supported smart phone or tablet can hear one possible route through the album as a 60 minute mix on SoundCloud.



Exclusive Premiere: Michael Forrest - Infinite London (Chik Budo Remix)

Justin Robertson... what an absolute legend! A much over-used phrase in this day and age but one that completely befits Mr Robertson.

Twenty three years at this thing called doof doof and beyond, he's an innovator and restless proponent of fascinating forward thinking music. 

A rich history matched only by his tireless need to keep pushing forward, as a result he remains one of the most relevant and exciting DJ/Producers around under his incredibly prolific Deadstock33s current moniker. 

Still hugely relevant today, we've seen him in the last few years look just at home tearing apart the main stadium-sized rooms at WHP's previous home Victoria Warehouse as he does in sun-kissed outdoors on an Adriatic coast at Electric Elephant. We were honoured to have him play for us at our beloved stage at Farr last year - he was so great that he's back again this year to play the hallowed sunset set. It’s what sets a great selector out from someone who merely calls themselves a DJ. 

So it's a privilege, nay a celebration that we've finally pinned him down for the Ransom Note mix. And he's turned in an Alfresco Jacking Excursion... a cracker it is too.

Justin plays Electric Elephant once again this year - 10th-11th July 2014 as well as our stage at Farr Festival on 19th July.

I might be bad but I’m better than you 
I might be bad but I’m better than you 
I might be bad but I’m better than you 
I might be bad but I’m better than you

Whatever I believe I concede is a story that I use when it suits me
It isn’t very deep, I take what I need and try to be what I wanna be
And I can let it go even if it was the whole of the way that I used to see it 
I’ll never see the truth so I pick and choose from the best ideas I can find out there

I can’t say I know what’s true
I can’t even say I know

Now you’re moving on the world, I can see similarities like you’re following same track  
Never taking any books to read, you prefer the ease of making up your own facts
Not everybody knows you that can't really overthrow some kinds of stories
But it doesn’t really matter what they believe just has to stick around for the week

You can’t even say you know what’s true
You can’t ever say what’s true

I might be a hypocrite
But I try to see beyond my limits

Any ways I'm wrong the worst can happen is I give myself a problem 
In my life and maybe I upset some of my loved ones
Or missing out on doing something yeah that  might have been fun
But if you are wrong then the very worst thing that will happen is an 
H-bomb, cities going underwater, hurricanes and earthquakes
higher seas and poison in the air and persecution
wars across the world and sacrificing any wisdom 
You need to factor all this in when you make your decisions 

I might be a hypocrite, but I try to see beyond my limits
I might have a loose relationship with the truth
I might be bad but I'm better than you

Oh Donald, Donald, you can suck my bum, oh oh oh Donald try not to blow us to kingdom come

I Might Be Bad But I'm Better Than You

LYRICS:

listen closely, i’m about to offer up 
a comprehensive account of all the mommas i fucked
a compilation of my copulation with the momma population 
from atop the tallest tower to the bottom of the basement 
it's a common conversation far as i’m concerned 
cuz i fucked every momma everywhere around the world 
from manhattan to pakistan and then back again
except the handful of nations impacted by the travel ban

i fucked ya momma yo
i beat the odds and stuck my cock into like half of the globe 
and all of the ladies that gestated life
i’m mackin on those
they carried babies
now they lay me 
make my package explode
gross
i fucked ya momma yo
i gave her plenty d
she gave you 23 of ya chromosomes
this is an overdose 
of poetic yo momma jokes
so settle in, I’m milking this milf bit, geronimo 

i fucked ya momma
in the rough
like a diamond
stuck it up her butt
then i nutted on her eyelids
i fucked ya momma on my own private island 
took a private jet 
got her wet with my privates
i fucked ya momma 
in the middle of the ocean
in the belly of the whale
sprayed my load all over both tits
i fucked ya momma
then she gave me a promotion 
she's promoting from within
cuz my dick is in her oh shit 

i fucked ya momma yo
i'm sleeping with her 
but she didn't bring pajamas though 
cuz she sleeps in the buff 
with her teeth round my nuts
then I stuff yo momma like she was an envelope
i fucked ya momma on a pile of forever stamps
don’t need to lick her even cuz yo momma’s hella damp
but obviously i go down on her 
then i go to town on her
then i fuck the rest of the town
cuz I’m the momma champ

i got a momma fuckin fetish
i sandwiched two meaty mommas on a bed of lettuce 
i ate ya momma’s pussy cuz she said i had to finish
that before i ate dessert
you know how mommas be gettin
over protective 
i fucked your momma at the dentist
she took me for a cleaning 
put my penis in her, then split 
i fucked yo momma on the court after a game of tennis
when she needed an abortion, drove yo momma to the clinic 
and i fucked her there
yo momma sucked my dick through the hole in my underwear
I say yo momma, cuz as far as names go I am unaware 
what yo momma’s name is
this isn’t momma dating
this purely momma fuckin 
on a no name momma basis 

i fucked yo momma
why?
cuz no one told me not to
now i run a momma brothel 
all for me
they always offering 
to make waffles
i fucked a billion
ladies who have raised children
lately i get the feeling
i’ve become a soulless momma-fucking villain 

huh
strange 
i feel nothing
i fucked ya momma 
then I busted on her stomach
a couple months ago this was a rush
but something changed
i’ve adjusted 
now my pulse is barely budging 
i fucked ya momma on a dragon in a dungeon 
ya momma loved it, but for me it wasn’t fun it’s dime a dozen 
this is the hero’s repercussion
bestowed the ultimate boon
but low and behold 
got multiple poon 
suddenly it’s joyless
it feels pointless
nevertheless
i fucked yo momma
on a toilet 
i fucked yo momma 
in a pond filled with koi fish 
i fucked yo momma 
with the antidote
my dick is  poison

I Fucked Yo Momma
