We’re putting together stuff for out next little ep / mini album and while I was going through some of my unfinished bits and pieces I found this little thing based around a loop I created using a Mellotron emulator:

The thing is I don’t really know what to do with it so I’ve put the stems up on the net for people to do with as they wish.

So here you go. Stems are all 44kHz wavs with ableton info files and all files are released under a Creative Commons Attribution-NonCommercial-ShareAlike 3.0 license.

If you do create anything, send it to me via my Soundcloud drop box:

Hello! It’s been a bit quiet on the Tiger Mendoza front for a while so I thought I’d put out a quick update.

Remixes:
The Missing on the Motorway mix I put together for the DJ Shadow remix comp has been selected to be a bonus track on the download version of the compilation that’s coming out to accompany the competition. Shame it didn’t get on the actual CD but still cool to be associated.

Oscar TG asked me if I wanted to do a remix of his track ‘Run with the flame’ which will be coming out on Red Robot records soon. A big thank you to Oscar, Will Scarlett and Flipt for letting me mess with their song!

There are a couple of other things that I’m working on as well but their not 100% confirmed yet but hopefully more news soon….

New tunes:
We are writing new stuff at the moment and hope to have some sort of release out probably in September. Dan O’Driscoll will be joining on guitar (along with Helena on vocals and Sally on bass) so that’s nice. Will definitely help when we do live gigs as well (which we’re also going to try and do later this year).

Anyway, that’s it for now. Cheers to anyone that’s shown an interest in this little project in any way. There will be some new tunes for you to listen to soon hopefully but due to some ‘personal commitments’, the tunes have had to be put on hold for a bit. Here’s small bootleg to tide you over in the mean time.

Cheers,
Ian

I’ve mentioned Tron 1.5 project in other posts but unfortunately the original site went down since World Famous Audio Hacker decided to disappear of the face of the internet. The good news is that the other guys involved in the project have said yes to rehosting the album on bandcamp so here you go:

A couple of new TM remixes for you:
Stately Homes Of England – 1000 Blinking Lights (Tiger Mendoza remix)

The Half Rabbits – When The Rain Stops (Tiger Mendoza remix)

Downloads available from The Half Rabbits’ website.

In other exciting remix related news, Stately Homes of England have also done a great remix of Hope Sick:

Also a reminder that Helena, Sally and I are doing a ‘semi-acoustic’ live set at Café Tarifa on Cowley Road, Oxford on Tuesday 9th February. Also on the bill are Kat Gadsden and Nigel Brown & Friends. Doors are at 9pm and it’s free entry so come down, drink booze and watch the first PROPER TM gig. Info and stuff can be found here.

My remix of The Half Rabbits‘ when the rain stops is now available to download from their website. If you’d like a listen first, here you go:

It’s also been added to the remixes page.

Also we’ve confirmed our first Tiger Mendoza live gig at Bar Tarifa in Oxford on Tuesday 9th February. It’ll be the first gig that Helena and I have done together that will feature acoustic and laptop stuff so should be fun. Should have more details and maybe a poster image soon.

And other fun? How about this.

First of all Happy New Year to you all! I found out today that my little bootleg has been selected as one of 2 winners of the first DJ Shadow remix competition! I am an exceptionally happy bunny!

The only problem is I’ve hit my download limit for the track on Soundcloud so here’s another download link:
DJ Shadow vs EBTG – Missing On The Motorway

It’s also been posted in the bootlegs part of the site. The other winner was NiT GriT’s brilliant reworking of Shadow’s Building Steam With a Grain of salt which you can listen to here.

Cheers to everyone that’s listened and downloaded and especially to the Djshadow.com team for selecting my mix. Helena said she’s up for trying to recreate “Missing…” live when we finally get to play live (which we’re hoping to do later this year) so I’ll keep you posted on how that goes.
