The votes are in and we’re proud to announce that irk has won Solid Steel’s prestigious Guest Mix Of The Year award for the second year running! He’s now the title-holder for 2010 AND 2011. It was his mix from March, “irked vol. 5: It’s What Gets You Ahead In Life” which won it for him. What’s more, this is only his second year on the show, since his SS debut was in Jan 2010. That makes it 2 out of 2 so far. Thanks for listening, we’re going to celebrate with a Johnnie Walker Black Label, you should too. To Hitch, Cheers!

and here’s the AV intro to “irked vol. 8: Too Much Pressure” again:

Irked Vol. 3 airing NOW on Solid Steel

That’s right ladies, the rumours are true, Irked Vol. 3: Can’t We All Just Not Get Along? is airing right now and all this week on Ninja Tune’s legendary Solid Steel Radio. Here’s what they say: “This week DJ Irk makes a welcome return to the show with another cracking mix”. In true rock ‘n’ roll style, the mix was recorded in Chamonix, France (round about when the Les Houches park photos were taken ) then edited and produced on the road in San Francisco and LA.

irk’s been busy lately: the new mix, entitled “Irked Vol. 3: Can’t We All Just Not Get Along?” (*tip hat to Tina Fey/30Rock), is finished and awaiting release details. Recorded in Chamonix, France, edited and produced in San Francisco and LA, it includes all the usual comical sample scratch trickery, and a backbone of raw hiphop, Cali-glitch, dubstep and breaks. Stay tuned for that. Plenty more in the works too, including a re-work boot of one of the classic tracks from Mel Brooks’ The Producers, and even some Noisia/Foreign Beggars shenanigans. And hey you know what… people should start leaving some damn comments on this site, it’s getting awfully lonely up in here… if you like it, say so, come on people! Anyways, that’s blaow for now, keep it Steel…

Having just returned from his Reels Of Solid Steel World Tour with Boom Monk Ben, Solid Steel’s DJ Cheeba is now back in Cham for the week. We kicked things off last night with a cheeky AV set in Monkey Bar; we’re back at Monkey tomorrow for part 2 of the adventure, then off to The Pub for thursday evening’s shenanigans, and we’ll go out in style on friday at the Cantina, which is bound to be another packed out sweatbox session, oh yes! And the rest of the time we’ll be shredding the spring slush up in the park, oh yes! Check out www.djcheeba.com for a taster of his awesome show.
