Sound Became Color

A journey from Mono to Stereo and the symbiosis of flesh and electronics.

“…during this Mono to Stereo transformation I have become intimidated by music. I’ll tell you why. I’ve been hearing a significant portion of music that few understand. I don’t fully grasp what I’ve been listening to for the past twenty-nine years yet myself, and I have only recently been able to articulate these new feelings of awkwardness towards music caused by stereo …The sound dances. It runs from side to side, up and down and in many other unexplainable directional feats that add suspense and flavor. When I found stereo I felt left out. Ditched. Honestly, It was an overwhelming downer that opened a lot of doors to all these wonderful trains of thought. After a few weeks of total confusion I thought that maybe a debate could simplify all of this conflict (for me anyhow). My problem comes down to Quality. And yet, Melody still found its way into my heart and interest. So here goes nothing… ” – Timothy Renato Pizza

Mongolian Mixtape Marathon

WE ARE NOW ON THE ROAD BUT ARE STILL DOWNLOADING MIXES WHERE POSSIBLE. ALL MIXES WILL BE PODCASTED SO FEEL FREE TO KEEP UPLOADING AND DONATING!
WHAT ARE WE DOING?

On July 11th 2009 two drivers will depart on a 10,000 mile drive from London to Mongolia, crossing Europe, central Asia and culminating with a dash across the mighty Gobi Desert. We are raising money for Save The Children, in association with the Mongolian Charity Rally. Our specially equipped off-road vehicle will be packed full of educational materials and clothing to donate to the Mongolian people. We will also be donating the vehicle on arrival.

WHAT IS THE MONGOLIAN MIXTAPE MARATHON?

We’re asking DJs from all over the world, be they big names or bedroom DJs, to upload mixes for us to listen to all the way to Mongolia. We estimate we have 800+ hours driving time and we’re intending to listen to dance music non-stop all the way there! Each DJ will be asked to submit a one hour mix of their favourite tunes and also make a small donation (of at least £1). We’ll then put all the mixes together and listen to them non-stop, all the way to Mongolia!

Once we depart, the mixes will be podcasted to the world as a lasting record of your mixing prowess. They’ll also be hosted on this site for at least a year after we return. So it’s a great place to keep your mixes for others to hear too!

Thanks to our sponsors Ableton – everyone who enters a mix will be eligible to win a copy of Ableton Live 8 in our prize draw, with winners announced shortly before we leave!

WHAT WILL WE DO WITH THE MONEY?

This rally costs around £3000 per team to enter and complete. We have put in significant personal investment ourselves and have been supported by sponsors, friends and family. The money raised from the Mongolian Mixtape Marathon will be put towards our essential fuel and repair costs (estimated at £1200).

WHAT DO SAVE THE CHILDREN DO IN MONGOLIA?

All the money we raise for Save The Children goes towards charity projects in Mongolia. Last year’s teams raised a fantastic £25,000 for Save the Children’s projects in Mongolia. You can read about all the great work Save The Children do in Mongolia here.

CAN I DONATE DIRECTLY TO SAVE THE CHILDREN?

Yes – you can donate here

WHAT HAPPENS IF I WANT TO HELP MORE?

*We’re relying heavily on donations of equipment and cash from generous individuals and businesses. If you have any equipment, money or expertise that you feel could be useful to us, please get in touch! We have plenty of sticker space on the car, as well as on this website for those who can help us out. Sponsoring the Mongolian Mixtape Marathon is a great way to unite your company behind an incredible cause, and can have lasting business benefits long after the rally is finished.

Th’ Mole Wraps Up Tour + New Music Vid

After finishing 3.5 months of touring across the US and Europe, Th’ Mole has been working on new material and getting set for more shows throughout August and September, including a 5-day stint in Holland (including shows with Curse Ov Dialect and DJ 0.000001) followed by Burning Man. He also found the time to make the silly music video for his bitter break-up song “I Hate You” from the Greatest Hits (Ha Ha Ha) Vol. 1 album:

Being the media-crazed attention whore that he is, Th’ Mole has continued to grace newspapers, radio, and magazines in the last few months. You can stream or download his live performance and interview on Capital Public Radio (here). Also, Kinki Mag has run a few stories on Th’ Mole, including one for its latest issue (free online – pg. 72).

While Th’ Mole continues to toil away, you crazy fans can expect two or three free maxi-singles in the next few months. Meanwhile, don’t forget about the two latest free maxi-singles, How 2 B Cool (ft. Robot Koch & Ladyscraper) and Jump Jack (ft. Warrior Queen and Mochipet).

Been seeing a lot of this lately….
