Sticky in a sticky situation
Sticky, one of the producers at the forefront of the funky bashment crossover that's doing so much right now, had his studio broken into last week.
Awful news - everything was taken, even the acoustic tiles. And most importantly, hard drives containing 10 years of work and undoubtedly a whole heap of unfinished bangers. In Sticky's own words:
My studio got robbed on Saturday night. They took everything! I dont understand! Took my hard drives as well with all my work.
I can deal with everything else, but my hard drives? That's all my work in the last ten years. It not fair! No one deserves that to happen to them.
Have to stay positive! All i wish for is my hard drives back. That's all I ask.
At the risk of making a slightly crass link, this seems like a good time to feature Sticky's collaboration with Lady Chann, Sticky Situation, a big, bassy and bashy garage bouncer:
MP3: Lady Chann & Sticky - Sticky Situation
In other, happier, funky bashment-related news, DJ and producer Sami Sanchez has apparently woken from the coma he's been in since being attacked outside a club he was playing at a couple of months ago.
Hopefully he'll make a full recovery and can get back involved in the UK/JA crossovers we were talking about before this all happened. I know he's gonna love the Tifa special and Busy Signal refix I've done of his tunes Dirty Trumpet and Dirty Salsa.

Oh no, I once lost a usb stick with a couple of new dubplates and I freaked out. I can imagine Sticky's not happy losing all that, even if he had a back-up.
