I have a new beat tape out!
This album has been through many different styles, sizes and names since
its tracks were completed in the beginning of 2011. The essence of this
is captured in its wordy title and 5-year-old-in-a-hoodie cover art.
Both of which fit my current style of making beats perfectly.
It took a year to finalise the way this set of tracks would be delivered
to the listeners and only in the last week was the final configuration
decided upon.
Originally a bunch of sample based instrumentals, electronic club-ish explorations and self styled Bit Jax fuck-arounds.
It morphed from 20 odd tracks, into 48 split over 4 albums, back into a
48 track monster album until finally I got tough on myself, culled 15
completely and split the rest into two masterpieces.
One with electronic leanings and one that's beats.
This is the latter.
Enjoy.

Updates for 2012
Updates have been made to my bandcamp page.
~~> BIT JAX DISCOGRAPHY <~~
You can now download all of my older releases (and some unreleased bits) that were given out but lost in a pile of shitty mediafirerapidshare links. Some (most/all haha) are unmastered and not as amazing as my recent work but I dont think that means they should be forgotten. I think having these older Bit Jax tracks available helps show how my musical tastes (and attention span) have changed and how I have progressed as a producer.
I've been organising myself and my music for some bigger better releases for 2012.
So if all goes to plan and we're all doing mean limo jumps off parts of the road as they fall away into the imploding earth on dec 21st - we should have some awesome music to listen to while we do it.
February is the month to start with.

King Beat Ep Videos
I made videos for each of the tracks off my new King Beat Ep.
Nothing too technical, just some good old moving image instead of album art like people usually put with music videos on youtube.
Take note of the video for Golden Railroad. Made with footage from the Auckland Lantern Festival earlier this year. Featuring spaced out drunk(?) girl trying to do the splits on wet grass.
Enjoy.

New track and video - DANK
Dank by Bit Jax
I recorded all of the jangly guitar riff and bass line myself. Having no proper knowledge of how to play guitar or bass I think it turned out quite well!
Vocal samples are from some jazzy lady i found in the depths of my sample library and an episode of the original X-Men cartoon, see if you can spot them.
Free download as always but keep your ears out for an EP or album including Dank coming soon.
Check the video too. Massive thanks to Andy Bamford and all the crew who helped out with the filming. Done up at the old Devonport war bunkers/tunnels in Auckland.
