The Sweetshop - 2D VersionD version of The Sweetshop video, no specs requires and full screen for the full WTF experience
Buy It Here : http://itunes.apple.com/gb/album/the-sweetshop-feat-caspa-codina/id359451147
Life loser, failed Super Hero and dis-reputable alcoholic Flash Atkins has managed to temporarily get his shit together and use his superpowers to create an amazing video for , The Sweetshop.
Completely unique, turns social networking on its head and in a world where all the ideas have been used up, this is a NEW ONE! It takes a sideways look at Facebook / YouTube / My Space / Twitter and filters it all through the seedy world of Flash Atkins.
The Sweetshop (Pick & Mix) has got lo-fi bass, crunchy drums and snapping synths all topped off with 70s crooner Caspa Codinas sleazy falsetto; its pop music with a knowing wink and impeccable 80s credentials.

If you still haven’t seen The Sweetshop video, head to http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iih_BmKL-Ew and be impressed! It’s completely unique and turns social networking on it’s head. It takes a sideways look at Facebook / YouTube / My Space / Twitter and filters it all through the seedy world of Flash Atkins.
Flash Atkins Remixes
On the remix front, Flash has manipulating sound using his dodgy mac laptop and come up with some cracking remixes. Visit http://soundcloud.com/flash-atkins to hear them.
Paper Music Issue 1 : Downtime : An exclusive Flash Atkins nu-disco remix of Downtime that is available as part of the Plane Paper : The Best of PAPERecordings. Buy it here : http://recordlabelservices.greedbag.com/buy/plane-paper-exclusives/
The Steals - The Wait A deep dubstep mix of the indie folkies with a fab vocal by Jayn Hannah. http://faunrecords.com/
Left Minded - Empty Clips A piano anthem from the 90s parachuted in to the 00s; disco bass, swinging drums and old skool keys…what’s not to like? Forthcoming on PAPERecordings on vinyl and digitally on April 19
SHE – Domina This deep house groover has been picked up by Ashley Beedle’s Out Hear Records and will be making an appearance on vinyl soon. http://www.facebook.com/ashleybeedle
New Releases
Chant Number 1 (I Can’t Keep This Pressure On) was put out to a remix competition and the brilliant results are out in April. DATG go deep and dark while Aaron Smith does disco on yo ass.
Gigs
Flash Atkins has been let loose in a new residency that could well end in tears due to the amount of booze available within arm’s reach. He can be found at Purple Chrome in the top room of The Hole in the Wall every second Friday of the month along with DJ Denaji. It’s free in and like the best school disco you’ve ever been to, soundtracked by soul, house, afro, reggae, pop, jungle, latin and disco.
You can also catch him at Into The Valley on May 29 and at the Futuresonic Festival.
New DJ Mix to Download
There may not be such a thing as a free lunch but there certainly IS such a thing a free mix. It’s another eclectic mix of laidback tune-age that's got plenty of dubstep, balearic covers, French rapping, the immense Don Cavalli, one of Hot Chip and some gypsy guitar all strung together using Flash's super human sound manipulation power.
