While the sun is shining here nicely and we are close to joining the nation on Queensday here, we thought to share this quickly. It is a fan video for the track Derezzed, from the TRON 2 original soundtrack. The video is directed and animated by Arnaud Faure. Allthough we usually post audio related material, we share this video too. We think you’ll enjoy it too. Arnaud did a good job!

In the past few months Soundcloud has been looking closer to DJ Sets and Mixtapes loaded onto their website. Result was that many DJ sets were removed due to copyright infringements.

Dubset is still in BETA phase so maybe this feature could be added in the future.
