Arms In Motion

Drop science down a bottomless pit

About Me

I come from a small city Perth - in Western Australia. I make beats and deejay (cutting scratching mixing.) I love collecting vinyl, punching pixels and a whole bunch of other fun junk.
Music is the language of the soul... I love to spin all things hip-hop, dancefloor breaks and beats, tripped out left-field electronica, sometimes grime, dubstep - with my own flavour. So far I have been lucky enough to support acts like Percee P, Busdriver + Anti MC, Spank Rock, Foreign Beggars and not to mention Vanilla Ice (seriously) along with local Aussie cats like Nick Sweepah and IVENS from the Awakenings crew, Low Budget, Elf Tranzporter + Dj Wasabi, Dexter, Curse Ov Dialekt plus others
www.myspace.com/thecommunityperth - is my crew.
Any artists out there who wish to collaborate with me please drop me a line, a byte or a sample of pink noise and lets make music together.
To contact or book me, please email armsinmotion 'at' gmail 'dot' com
SUPPORT - Innovation, local talent and friends, new ideas and forms of noise-making, the next generation, be kind to other music lovers around you and never in ignorance.
EXPORT - Bland pop commercialism, people ignorant towards musical aspiration and creativity, kids growing up in manufactured pop/fashion culture with no foresight... and for the record f*ck MTV for what it has become.

I'd just like to say I'm sick to death of "reality programming" tv shows, in particular ones that audition hopefull singers such as the Idol series and X-factor. These shows are about making someone f...
