G'day, Howdy, Bonjour & Xin Chao! Well, in a few months I'll have to be reeling off those
worldly expressions as I'm planning for a crazy ass world trip. Insane. I'll be making my e-mail
styled blog for updates as per my last mission, so when the time comes and if you really give a shit
you can sign up for updates.
A lot has been going on since my last Living By The Week. I'm getting busier so my
actually weekly updates have been piss poor. In much need of a holiday I think. This mission around
the globe is so bloody exciting. I'm hitting New York City, London, Paris, Hong Kong and Ho Chi Minh
from June 24th until August 20th. If you know anyone in NYC who can hook a brother
up with any inside knowledge or even a floor, please please please let me know. For the Londoners
reading this, it's time for a bit of payback... ha ha ha. :)
NiceProduce has peaked yet again with unprecedented modest success. Each month has been
bigger and more rewarding than the last, with more and more customers signing up for NiceProduce goodness
everyday. I can't wait to take this baby of ours overseas, I'm going to bomb the world with our happy little
face, it's domination, baby. NiceProduce, On Tour.
It's been one hell of a start to 2006!. Workshop has finally opened its doors and
has been an absolute success. Big ups Sean, Brendan, Luke & the Workshop gang!. I've been lucky
enough to have been playing there almost every week. For those in Melbourne this weekend then come
check out DJ Dust, Seven & my night called ANYTIME. It's probably the only major outlet
we have at the moment to play tunes we're not "known" for in Melbourne. I'm playing hip-hop, funk and house
for example. Good to shake the breaks every once in a while. The night's been an absolute success with
Workshop pulling in over 750 people at our last event. Smashing.
Holy crap! It's back! 33&1/3 Easter Breaks. Big ups Agent Mad for
bringing the quality yet again. The line up has been announced to head to the website and get the low down. What's ultra
exciting is we get to see G again! (Can't wait to see you bro!)
Two Tribes is back in 2006, with a phat line up for the breaks heads. Ali B, Dylan Rhymes, James Lavelle
and Lee Coombs will be rocking out this Saturday!. Will be good to see the boys and scope some fat as breaks.
Revolver is standing tall with our new promoter LiL MisBreaks running things night and tight. Mr Nick Thayer
is about to bon voyage himself off to London next month to show Fabric how breaks is done down here
in Australia and he will be missed! Taking his place will be LiL MiSBreaks and The Alias respectively. You
can't stop the Late Show!.
Kiss FM is in good form. Kiss My Grass is on in March and boasts the largest collection of Australian artists and DJ's
all performing under one banner. It's going to be insane. If you're not a Kiss subscriber and you are thinking of
checking out the gig, then please do so. Not only do you get the best in Australian dance, but also a free years
subscription to the best radio station in Melbourne. For those in Melbourne tune in on 87.6, 87.8, 87.9FM or overseas then tune in to Kiss FM here. It streams 24/7 and broadcasts to Melbourne in it's entirety.

It looks like Silas is getting signed. Radness. I'll deliver the details on signing the contract. Rad.
I've also just about finished my new puppy called Her Name Was. It's a bit of a deep rolling kinda
"Lynty styled" breakbeat. Download a little sample.
I'm in crazy holiday saving and production non-stop hibernation mode now, I've taken Monday's off work at DMC Beats
just so I can get in the studio more, so expect more updates in this section of Livin By The Week. By the time I'm ready to leave, I'll have a nice
folio of my work to take to London, that is, if I can get some sleep.
Breakbeats with Lynt @ DMC Records, Melbourne, Australia.
