Upitup.com 2012

2012 is the year of the Double Dragon…
and it's gonna be a kickass year here at the Upitup stage! 

We're starting it off with an awesome new free album by London based artist Benjamin Jackson.
"2" is a 6 track EP and his second release to date, after his fabolous first audiocassette release on his own label The Analogue Quadrant, Exhibit Cube has sold out (but I got one!)

"2" is the perfect follow-up to his previous effort, and brings his 'Sun Drenched Analogue Love Numbers' music to new heights. Download it here and share it with your relatives.

Second hot topic: our first 12" "Union Jacques - Dub Pets" is going to be released officially on Upitup on February 15th. However some copies have leaked our "Copyright +" controls and have been reported to be sold in a few spots all over Europe:

3b Records, Liverpool, IT
Alpacha Distro, Rome, IT
Re Mix, Rome, IT
Soul Food, Rome, IT

If you are hungry like the wolf, you now know where to go.

Last but not least, Subscribe to our all new Upitup Youtube channel, as our videomakers are producing more than ever. There is a lot to see, and there will be much more to come , a good tool to dig deep in our back catalogue and hear previews of future releases!! Better than the TV!

Beat 'em Up!

Dear masses,

Eight gr8 free albums and another wrinkle on our bottom is not such a bad result at the end of another dazzling year. Only the finest music by who we consider absolute top artists made it into our catalog this year: The Carrier Wave, The Courier, The Plugexpert, The Goon, The Cosmic Analog Ensemble, Mr. Birthday, and Mr. Atzeni kept our minds dirty and our hearts off beat. (Not to mention our beloved disc & mp3 jockeys who contributed some serious mixes: Vernon LeNoir, PP Roy, Captain Johnson, Jonas Natterer, Konrad Kuhn...)

We'd like to thank our supporters for helping us turn 2011 into a extraordinary and productive year. May your balls sweat sweet spring time flower smell.

We started 2011 with The Carrier Wave and so we're gonna finish 2011 with The Carrier Wave! Just in time for your impending new year's party mixtape here comes "Tears of Joy" with cover art by Becky Liddiard! I could bore you to death trying to describe the awesomeness of this release but instead i'll just make it easy for you figure it out yourself and show you a big fat download link like this:

====> C L I C K  H E R E !!! <===== ヘ(^_^ヘ)

(and enjoy the acid vibes!)

And that's it for starters. Here's our main courses:
1) The unofficial Union Jacques - "Dub Pets" vinyl pre-order has started! Write us if you're a cool person :) Official release is scheduled for February 15th 20yes12.
2) Jonas The Plugexpert's "Los" has just won the award for best Dutch free music release. Don't forget to get it if you haven't yet!
3) The lead singer of the Zombina and the Skeletons, Zombina herself,  made us an unmissable dj-set!, where "unmissable" means missing it is a misdemeanor.
4) Tracky was awarded a cease and desist christmas postcard from the legalese-enthusiasts at the New York Times for his tribute to the "Arts" section of the world famous toilet paper substitute in developing countries: what a christmas present!!!




That's all for 2011, see you in 2012, Mayas!

Jesus Christ…. is almost 2011 years old!

Merry Crimbo:
A Time when Religion and Coca Cola unite as one – and a time when we all go treasure hunting for the best presents!
But.. No need to go anywhere else: Upitup is the right place!

Here is a new Upfree in time for Cirsthmsa, so you can enjoy it and share it with your beloved ones.

Los by Jonas The Plugexpert is  a 14 track long player by our ever favourite dutch tracker magician.

There are no boundaries between styles in Los, as it all mixes up in a very intricate web of beats, melodies, gouda flavoured samples and jamaican sizzling rhythms! It flows a treat and is perfect for a fireplace powered after dinner rave.

This is our third release from Jonas the Plugexpert who has been with us since our first release "All Nights Reversed" and our first live show ever in Rome in 2003. This is a HOT one!

Download it for free here!

*Breaking News!*
Some copies of UPV001 (Upitup's first vinyl release) have been spotted in a christmas market in Liverpool, according to our new copyright policy, you should destroy them asap and forget the content if you don't want to if you don't want to face our heavy penalties, that include monetary sanctions and ritual sacrification of your first born.

Yours truly SANTA.
Ps: Raving hard on Jah is for you!
