CLOTHING // Chimptown Dogs

Whilst browsing around as one does on a Wednesday afternoon, I came across these rather delectable dogs just kicking back in a delicious range of hats from Mitchell & Ness, Huf and Indscn.

This doggy play is all to promote their new range of snapbacks and five panel cape hats from the excellently named 'Chiptown Dogs' series. These dogs are part of the greater team at The Chimp Store, Leeds.

Grab yourself some new summer gear at The Chimp Store, or visit them on Facebook HERE.












TUNE OF THE DAY // Bomb The Bass - Bug Powder Dust (La Funk Mob Remix)


Recently you will start to notice a trend occurring with more and more hip hop related posts appearing. I think this is mainly due to the few good days of weather prompting the BBQ to be rolled out again, and as accompanying a seeded bun is to a cheeseburger, hip hop is to a BBQ. Essential..

TUNE OF THE DAY // CL Smooth - I can't help it (Shin-ski's cant stop me remix)

Sorry it has been so long. The dogging team are currently undergoing an all hands on deck scenario, which has limited our internet time to browse and bring you these daily crackers. However, this song persuaded me to take a time out, and get back on the blog.


This tune is stupidly good, is there a continuous repeat option in youtube? if not, this song may be the reason it gets invented.

Normal dogging shall commence soon, be patient.

MUSIC // Kitchen Dip Recordings


Welcome one, welcome all. Today is a special day to treat your ears, after all they need a rest from the barrage of the protruding bassline that was being echoed into your mindless brain for hours on end.

So for that lazy sunday feeling I have brought to you a very special delicacy which has been likened to that of a michelin star restaurant. I present to you.....Kitchen Dip Recordings.



Tasty enough? No? Well, head on over to http://kitchendip.org/ to feast upon the selection of free music, this for me is definitely my best find in 2011. Oh and they blog is another delectable read, but obviously for legal reasons it is not as good as the dog blog.

TUNE OF THE DAY // NIEVE

That time of the day again. A few months ago I was scanning the musical web from link to link and eventually settled on someone I had yet to ever hear from, that man was Nieve. For the launch of his latest album 'Playback' he was giving it away for limited time and seconds after downloading it I was hooked. The LA based Nieve produces some really slick and smooth lyrics that tie in beautifully with his soulful jazz and hip hop base. Now that I've listened to the album plenty over the last few months, I thought it time to share it with those that haven't yet discovered it. Below is the full album uploaded onto soundcloud by Nieve himself, enjoy....

TUNE OF THE DAY // Phaeleh - The Cold In You (feat. Soundmouse)

Once again this man graces our infamous tune of the day.


I am such a huge fan of Phaeleh and have been for a pretty long time now, but having been lucky enough to see him at an intimate night in Nottingham, my fondness and infatuation for 'Fella' as it is pronounced has risen to a now worrying level. The genius has been at the forefront of a whole host of life changing music and beats. You may well recognise the vocalist and collaboration on this snippet of a song (sorry its so short..blame fella) from Soundmouse, they made a huge hit called Afterglow together.


Its a very rare thing that you see a bunch of sweaty grown men just slow everything down on the dance floor, reach for the lighters (probably illegal inside) and just sway to the beauty oozing out of the speakers and embedding perfection into your brain.....enough said.

TUNE OF THE DAY // Dub FX feat. Mr. Woodnote - Flow

Right, time for tune of the day. I'm pretty sure most people have seen this but for those that haven't, I bring to you Dub FX and Mr Woodnote performing Flow. Recorded live in the streets of Bristol by Ben Dowden, the pair use loop pedals and some serious funk to produce a video I just can't stop watching, even 2 years after I first saw it. Enjoy...
