great imagery. i'm imagining stumbling across this record in the woods behind the school playing fields as it gathers mould with all the other discarded junk - porno mags and empty tins of solvents etc.
had to go and ruin it.

DJ that has been a big part of every music trend of the last 10 years
A quick heads up - new artist Peter Shakane's single "White Rifle" is out
today!
Here is what the press are saying!! (some of them are a little cutting -
but Shakane has taken on the comments as constructive criticism).
Any Decent Music - Likened to artists such as Diplo, MIA, Azealia Banks -
but with a dirty big beat influence a la The Prodigy. This new genre has
been described as Electro Booty - Pioneered by none other than Shakane. A
smutty relief from all the post slow/dub-step/gip-step that has been
polluting for the last few years. Welcome Peter Shakane.
Vice magazine - "Yeah, I suppose its ok... mild sensationalist bullshit -
we should like it more."
NME Unsigned - "5/10 sounds from the nineties with no real progression. A
catchy hook, great video. Dirty, pointless fun"
The Sun - "Music for children with ADHD by a child with ADHD. Maybe even HD
ADHD."

That made me laugh, 1080pi ADHD
Partridge-esque
UPDATE: my advanced bellend alarms have gone off, triggered by this second email.
Hello - a little update...
Just so you know - Peter Shakane is in NO WAY AFFILIATED WITH XL RECORDINGS... He thinks they are a good label and wishes they would sign him but that is as far as it goes. Peter passes on his apologies to anyone who got the wrong end of the stick - please don't publish anything that says he is on XL Recordings or he will have to go back to prison. We were going to use the name XL Records, but we can't. So we have made the domain redundant.
Also, the reviews were fake - but reasonably funny? Probably best not to publish those either - unless you are a lawyer that will represent me for free?
The music however is original - and now released independently. Please feel free to band it about...
In case you missed it here is the video...
Probably best to watch it today as I imagine it will get taken down soon enough
Oops!

This is me - never used!
I got a collaborator who worked in marketing once to do one about me - I think it's pretty awesome, especially the bathos-laden ending.
This up and coming Producer/Songwriter started out as a classical pianist, but by the age of 14 was already immersing himself in the, big room sounds of (EXAMPLES). Not content with simply enjoying these beats, this ambitious teenager, was soon mastering his own rave tunes on his trusted Amiga 500
Realising the significance ring tones would ultimately play in the industry StarGuider was soon programming what he describes as ' Those cheesy MIDI jingles' which ultimately helped paved the way for the MP3 phone
Most recently he's engineered live sessions at XXXXXXXXXX, recording the likes of XXXXXXX, XXXXX, XXXXX and on (DATE) StarGuider and team where awarded a 'Podcast Of The Week' award by Time Out
Producers like Phil Spector strike the chord of Drama and Eccentricity which resonates in StarGuider's work.
His love of R Kelly, Pharrell, Missy Elliott, Cassie, Ciara and the massive respect he has for Kanye West means he's also been pumping some seriously impressive R'n'B muscle
His beats are described as being both 'Infectiously Commercial' and 'Deeply Honest' transcending the mundane and disposability of average pop.
StarGuider is one producer who certainly knows how to flex his RnB muscles in the interest of truth
He is a Producer and Songwriter who really wants to speak and connect with his fans
With his eclectic tastes StarGuider's (MUSIC PLAYER) is crammed with every genera from Classical, Jazz, to Grunge,Techno, Jungle and Hip Hop. Today he's living and breathing Dubstep and Prince, Aphex Twin and Kelley Polar can regularly be heard blearing through his speakers
As StarGuider himself admits. He's a slave to the beat - 'I listen to so much music I kind of lose track - but there you go '
He just asked for some basic info about me - I do think it's a bit of a work of genius to be honest - I wish I could write in this sort of style
