Russ Chimes Expressway Mix pt. 2

So I overheard the guy that runs this blog complaining about how some of us don’t contribute enough, right to my face. So suck on this you wannabe dictator!

Stereosonic (tickets here) is this Sunday! We’ve had a little break since Parklife but now summer is here and shit is about to get real and not let up until… well Parklife next year. It’s a fairly techno-centric festival. Which is great if you like techno. And if you like to dance. ‘Cause lets be honest you can dance to techno for hours given the right circumstances. But there’s some other stuff there too and one of them is a PQ fave, Russ Chimes. Here’s a mix he made recently which will give you a pretty good indication if you wanna catch his set on Sunday. If you do, Dirty Harry will see you there! And also at Major Lazer, and who knows where the hell else in between; there’s a lot of good shit on offer.

Music interview

Russ Chimes Interview

He’s playing at Limelite, Metros Freo, on the 7th of August (Event Info) and he has some stellar tracks. The Valerie and friends album is out now on Bandroom Records and is worth buying, it has track from all the Valerie team and some of their friends, obviously, hence the name Valerie and Friends… We’ll I got to have a chat to Russ about what the collective is like, how he creates his tracks and what we can expect from his show on the 7th. Full interview after the jump and you can listen to She’s Got The Heat while you read!

Hey Russ Chimes! As the only British artist involved in a Nantes based collective, how did you end up being involved in Valerie?

I heard College’s track Teenage Color back in
