THIS IS A MUSIC BLOG

By Ben Goodbye



The other day I was compared to Carrie Bradshaw, people told me they’d imagined me sitting of my bed with my MacBook smoking a Marlboro light writing about failed relationships. Yeah, thanks guys
Tbh, I think I’m a nice blend of Charlotte and Samantha,
“I will wear whatever and blow whomever I want as long as I can breathe and kneel.” - Samantha
“Sex can still be great, even without an orgasm.” - Charlotte
I’m sure I’ve said something like that in the past

This is a music blog so I guess I should write about music. Nah!
Apparently I drank a little too much vodka at this BIG IN JAPAN this week. One of the last things I remember is my friend leaving and saying, “Mate, can you get my coat.” Next thing I knew I was being forcefully dragged into the club and then ending the night doing shots of tequila rose in the basement. The rest is a blur
Woke up the next morning to find out what carnage I had created. I was told it was a lot. I think I might be disowned if I say what happened but the experience will definitely stay with me. When you hit rock bottom real bad I doubt the feeling will ever go away that easily.

DATING RULES

By Ben Goodbye



The rule is you're not allowed to date someone your friend dated—ever. By the same token, you are never allowed to date your ex's friends. If you want to go out with a boy/girl but you kind of know his ex-girlfriend/ex-boyfriend, that's fine. Just don't expect to be friends with them ever again
I've broken this rule to often

I was left tenderhearted and frail when a group of us caught my "ex" with some guy in the toilet just after he said those three little words, few weeks later found out he slept with some gay I’ve never hated so much. Turns out he hid a lot from me.
We're done now. I guess thats karma.
But on the upside, I lost so much weight because of it

Cuizinier

By Ben Goodbye



Cuizinier is a $tunts/Institubes artist and a member of French rap heavyweights TTC. The first two volumes of his Pour Les Filles mixtapes are bestsellers. Guilty pleasures fetishists, preppy boys, gully girls and controversy addicts worldwide. Cuizinier, the Artist. Your girlfriend's boyfriend

Cuizinier is on his way to being France’s premiere rap artist. The Institubes blog just dropped a mega bomb with “Lettre F”, an exclusive Cuizinier track featuring Spank Rock and Pase Rock. It’s total pop with a dangerous edge, like the perfect marriage between Pour Les Filles and Spank Rock’s 2 Live Crew-inspired Bangers and Cash project. Obviously, this musical coup is totally worthy of being a classic summer jam, and I’m sure I’ll be playing it poolside and clubside and seaside for the next few months. It’s so fun. you can imagine Spank, Pase and Cuiz hanging out in the studio and going crazy. The track was produced by TTC member Orgasmic, who’s signature glossy ‘80s style is all over the song. Loves it

Bobmo

By Ben Goodbye



The early hours of Saturday morning while dancing to Das Glow at Fabric London, Institubes new boy Bobmo landed on me after a failed stage dive. The state I was in I didn’t know what to do when he came flying at me.
This moment is probably my second favourite moment of this year so far. The first being the best sex I’ve ever had a month back, but that’s now for now.

Bobmo is a young producer hailing from the hyperactive city of Paris via the even more hyper city of Bordeaux. While in high school he launched a short-lived rap career, spitting awkward tales of murder and woe. Bordeaux is a pretty cool place and, hanging out with the right crowd, going to the right club, and listening to the right radio show, Bobmo got into Detroit techno, Miami bass, electro and, most importantly, Chicago house. Taking influence from such legendry labels Dancemania and Trax, the result LET'S GO BOBMO! Played by such luminaries as Sinden, Justice, MSTRKRFT, Diplo, Busy P, etc.

With this success he went on re-release the stand-out track "To the Bobmobile". Now he's back with his second 12" “3000% YES”.
"Rock The" speaks a fluent percussive House, "Legally Dead for 4'31" delivers 4 minutes and 31 seconds of jacking electro and "Get ‘Em, Junior" wraps things up on a techno tip. Cheap-sounding synths blossoming into ecstatic fuzziness...You get a lot more than you bargained for.
