Jump Up For Joy
Hey Everyone:)
As some of you may know, we had our music video launch party in December. However, there’s a lot more to getting it ready than we expected and hence we’ve had to delay putting it up for viewing until now, due to getting final edits ready, sending tapes off to TV stations and all the other sneaky little admin that creeps up on you for something like this.
But now, finally, we are very happy to introduce our first music video for Mix n Blend. It’s for the drum n bass track ‘Joy featuring the talents of one of our full time frontmen, Crosby. We got together with the guys from Tintoy Productions to film a straight forward feel good video. It’s set in Crosby’s ‘hood in Gugulethu. We all headed out there for a couple of days to shoot and had an amazing time shooting. Bigups to all the locals who made us feel so welcome and dragged us off to their houses for an impromptu party:)
Many thanks to all who were involved and made it a great experience for us.
We’re already linking up with Tintoy Productions to plan the next one.
We’re also giving away the track for free below, so if you want to grab a copy just punch in your details and grab.
Further to that, cos you know we love giving you free shit if you spread some love, if you hit us up on twitter (twitter handle @mixnblendyo) or tag us in a Facebook post (our Facebook Page is at http://www.facebook.com/mixnblend) with a link to through to this post we’ll direct message you a link to this tracks companion, Narona, another feel good slice of Drum n Bass.
Much Love

Actions Speak Louder Than Nerds
So last week we broke out the beers and got busy bootlegging.
Ben of the original blender nattymix we put up for you all to grab a couple of weeks ago has been moaning at us to bootleg this Terry Collins track called Actions Speak Louder Than Words for ages. And we’ve ignored him. Until now.
So without further ado ladies and gents here is the Soundcloud widget for you to listen to
And the topspin widget that let’s you grab it by punching in your mail if you like it.
