The Bad Apple Project #2 – Feeling Free
This was made a while ago as part of a workshop we ran for a bunch of teenagers. We were all asked to present a piece to capture our essence. This was made to capture and communicate what longboarding does for me. It was rough and rushed shooting a little half hour skate sesh, but over all shows a piece of me.

Tom Gards WEEKLYVOICE #1 – ‘The Handball’
As BIDS WEEKLYVOICE developed into a whole mixtape, he has handballed the Weeklyvoice over to Tom Gards. The challenge is to smash out a verse a week for 6 weeks, not one a day late. His reward if he lands all 6 is a handful of verses and a permanent spot in The Electric Life team and fam. If you’re feeling what he’s doing, let him know and show your support.
WEEKLYVOICE #1 takes place on the Wimble balcony on a rainy day, written and smashed out real quick Tom Gards delivery is simple, laid back and effective.

From the mouth of Bids: Groms n Young Blood
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.

BIDS WEEKLYVOICE – #2 The Format
Even through a stressful week Bids has just managed to squeeze in his WEEKLYVOICE with 46 min left on the clock before the new week starts. Writing what’s relevent in that moment and laying it down as quickly as possible racing for the deadline, here’s The Format…
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.
