Hype


So, quite often on this blog I report on music that other DJ's such as Gilles Peterson or Benji B are raving about. However, I think I might be a little ahead of the game, with a name to lookout for in the future, Toby Gale (aka Tobias Gale & Toby Toast) is a producer, drummer and all round good guy hailing from Bath. Currently residing in Kingston-upon-Thames, his music is richly influenced by a diverse selection of artists such as Madlib, Gil Scott Heron, Minotaur Shock, Prefuse 73 and far too many more to mention. If musical taste was measured on a scale of 1-10 this guy would be at the top as far as I'm concerned. Anyway I digress, basically Toby is making some top notch music of his own, and is in the process of making his second album "Song for Keys". He has very kindly given me the privilege of streaming one of the tracks taken from this album, his remix of Radiohead's "Reckoner".

Also, for a limited time only on his myspace you can download a preview copy of the album @ www.myspace.com/tobygale. Toby is currently receiving a lot of hype about his Sebastien Tellier "Fingers of Steel" remix and has found himself at the top of the http://www.rcrdlbl.com/ most popular list for quite a while now. There are also rumours of a Radio 1 drop, so keep an eye out for Mr. Gale.
