THE FAMILY by Charlotte Squires

One Sunday, many weekends ago, we got our crew together and took some happy snaps to introduce ourselves. We aimed to show a little piece of us in every shot….Here is some of the team….

From the mouth of Bids: Groms n Young Blood

DJ,CC

Words from Bids:  This 17-year-old young blood, CC aka Lachlan Curtin-Corr is a budding DJ and boss kid.  I’m sharing this dude with you because I see a lot of spark and potential in him.  When I had my studio set up at the office he came to me asking to try out the Maschine.  I don’t usually let just anyone touch my shit but there’s something about this kid, and it’s not one of those “he reminds me of me when I was his age”, because I was a little fuck at his age.  CC is straight up, honest and doesn’t try to impress people around him,  this impresses me along with his personality of being a genuinely rad boss kid.

Check out his mix and Soundcloud

BIDS WEEKLYVOICE – #1 Notorious Thugs

As a struggling artist with numerous moments of writers block and days lacking drive, accompanied with the stresses of having a shallow pocket from dedicating more time to music and less to earning, Bids will be pushing himself to write and lay down more by committing to drop a verse a week on the Electric Life spot.  With so much to say and so much happening this will be his voice for the week.  Verse #1 is on the Notorious Thugs beat based on Biggies verse.  Let him know if you’re feeling this and he might commit to extending his WEEKLYVOICE beyond the dedicated 8 weeks.

Spud Gun Turret: Carlton Gardens

The Spud Gun Turret was recently created when Bids walked in on Zed and Fizzle in the office, amped to record a track into Garage Band on Fizzles laptop.  Being a generous awesome type, Bids offered to record it into protools as his studio was temporarily set up in the front room.  Zed and Fizzle jumped at the opportunity and invited Bids in on the track as it was all just for a bit of fun.  They sat down with pens and paper and scribbled verses out as quick as the ink would run.  Zed had never written or rapped before but managed to get some shit down then out.  An energetic and hilarious recording session with a good outcome, Carlton Gardens.

Quote from Zed: ”Fuck… writing raps is actually hard”

Filming ZEDs Show Reel (behind the scenes)

The Electric Life teamed up on a sunny Saturday to utilise Dean Brosches’ passion for film to help Zeds passion for presenting.  After meeting out the front of the Wimble House, the crew made their way down to the Flemington drains where they scoped a spot to set up a make shift lounge setting.  A sweet looking set, some young ones and some sound problems made for a good day.  Zed interviewed Bids on his love for longboarding as they chilled on the couch and shared some banter.  An over all great experience and learning, through the filming for Zeds Show Reel.
