Wooohaaaaa!!! Braindrop is throwing its very first boat party on Saturday 6 June.

The vessel is specially equipped to hold large groups of people (and all the extra bass bins we can squeeze on). Her name is The Dutch Master and she be a mighty fine boat too! As one of the only boats of her type, The Dutch Master has gone down in folk-lore as the best party boat in London.

She has three floors: One dance floor with a bar, one chilling room and the upper deck which is open air. We are bringing in the rig just to make sure we have big bwaad bass and can have a proper rinse up!

She will set sail from a dock on the River Thames and travel up and down the river for the entire duration of the party. On the way we'll pass under Tower Bridge, past the Millenium Dome, Canary Wharf, South Bank and all the other amazing London riverside scenery. Braap to that.

Ben Langham better known as DJ Ben Phaze in the music scene is currently sampling his way through tunnels, workshops, stations and passageways gathering some of the unique sounds which he, unlike the majority of people who use the London Underground, has special access to.  

"Wicked idea!" Annie Nightingale, Radio 1

Sounds such as machinery, moving escalators and echoing footsteps in the tunnels are being recorded to create music samples which Ben is adding effects to.


With the addition of melodic synth arrangements, scratching, live instruments, vocals from Scottish electronic artist Plum, and driving beats he is creating a unique album called Tunnels.

The official Tunnels website is now online at www.tunnelsounds.com where you can hear the latest tunes, check tube times and find out how an escalator works!



See what the Hornsey & Crouch End Journal and The Metro have to say about it...






...and check out this report that went out on BBC World News!!!!



Bring Your Own is back to bring your audio snippets to life, however random they might be.  Send your samples in and wait to hear how they might be sequenced, warped and pitch shifted to form musical compositions
