What you need:

Big wraps (middle eastern kind, Hollyland bakery if you can find)
Humous
Feta Cheese
Cherry Tomatoes
Black Durmaz Olives, halved and then stoned
Avocado
Cucumber
Lettuce
Spring Onion (optional)
Mint
Hot Sauce of your choice

Chop it all up as shown in the picture.
Spread some humous on the wrap. (not too much!!)
Delicately lay the rest of the goodies, one by one, in the wrap.
Then wrap it up!!!!
But be careful, if you don’t wrap it right then you might encounter a… HULL BREACH! (yes, that is how we came up with the name)

Peace. Get wrapping…. till the break of dawn yo.

The lap steel totally makes the tune and gives it the vibe we wanted!

Mad props!!

The video was recorded at The Heathcote blues jam in Leyton, London.

Sometime ago someone showed us this video that a fan of the Toyota AE86 had made.
It seems to be a video of some kind of rally race car ( i know nothing of cars!) and has been cut to one of our tracks; Too Doggone Funky.
We like it and it makes us laugh so we thought we’d share it with you….

We are proud to announce the official release of Astrophonica 002. You’ve heard it in Podcasts, out at clubs and now you can put it in your sets!

Hello again!

DJ Fracture is back with another mix from the crates. Moving away from the classic funk and soul grooves of the last couple of mixes, this time flipping the script with a selection leaning towards 70s/80s/90s rock and pop based tunes.
Lots of the records featured here were first heard as a kid at parent’s parties and have now been imprinted forever…

DJ Fracture presents “Making Plans”
