Sat down recently with 2 Sides of the Same Convo (@2SidesOfTheSameConvo on YouTube) for a wide ranging chat about hip hop, my early connections to the culture and a bit about me and Al’s process. Had a great time, peep if you got an hour to spare: youtu.be/-hMqUd_8tM8?...

A week in to our new house and the important unpacking has started. Never mind the curtains they're going as soon as I make it to IKEA.

Tomorrow's the day! Good god we've got a lot of stuff though.

Guess what I'm cooking tonight

Even though I'm now on first name terms with the lads at the tip, I still can't believe all this stuff fits in our house :o Gonna need a container ship not a van!

Finally exchanged!!! Norwich here we come 🍰🎉🎉

Is there anything in life more stressful than trying to buy a house in the UK. Doesn't help having Colombo as a lawyer (one more thing......) Will we exchange tomorrow as planned or will it all fall flat because we filled in tax form 188b and not 188B and they only told us today?? Time will tell.

What's the same as streaming my tunes several thousand times? manlikechez.bandcamp.com My entire back catalogue (one album, one instrumental album, one EP and a brace of singles) for less than a round! But if you want to stream thousands of times instead I won't moan 🤣

Has this one from the vaults on last night in the gym. Absolute scorcher even if I do say so myself. If you like breakbeat / garage / bass house / nu rave any of that sort of thing you should check it out. www.mixcloud.com/BreaksBassFa...

Been a minute since I put anything out, so here's a cheeky remix I did. Was supposed to be on the last album but didn't get it done in time so has been I'm "ah I should mix this down" limbo until now! manlikechez.bandcamp.com/track/amateu... No streaming tho, Bandcamp and SoundCloud only :)

you-sonix.bandcamp.com/album/harpoo... Out now.

Been a little while since I dropped any new music - new projects are underway but not ready yet. In the meantime, here's one I made earlier :) manlikechez.bandcamp.com/track/amateu...

Sunday beats from @manlikechez.bsky.social for Breaks & Bass Fam this weekend 🥰 Enjoy alongside this lovely autumnal weather 😎🍂🧡

Now on Mixcloud, a beautiful deep house mix from Epicentre The Dragon to keep the stormy weather at bay 🎶💜 This is a live recording from The Chakra Lounge in Sheffield last weekend. I enjoyed this at the time with a lovely cup of tea - other beverages are available 😜 www.mixcloud.com/BreaksBassFa...

Went past the spin studio at the gym this morning and they were blasting proper amen break giant wobbly bassline old school style jungle. Yay! Beats the crap out of the anaemic 'house' music that's the gym floor soundtrack.

We got the house!

The stonking @manlikechez.bsky.social remix of Multiverse 3 'Night Journeys' is two years old today! Our only track to get featured on BBC Introducing, it comes with the instrumental multiverse3.bandcamp.com/album/night-...

Think we've found our house in Norwich. Just hope its a done deal when the estate agents are back on Tuesday!

Great mix this from man like V3xation well worth a listen folks 👇

If you missed it first time round, I do an intermittent series of instrumental hiphop mixes called Just The Beats, I'm working on volume 5 now, here's volume 4 to whet your appetite!

There’s a rumour there’s a volume 5 coming soon so get your ears round this beauty from the vaults from @manlikechez.bsky.social 🔊🔊🔥🔥 Including a few of his own productions, it’s a sublime mix of beats & instrumentals www.mixcloud.com/BreaksBassFa...

Today’s archive picks from @manlikechez.bsky.social starting with this huge breaks & beats mix from V3xation. Loads of deep & glitchy basslines in this one & a 3-slide track list 😯 If you missed it first time around, get on it! 🔊🔊🔥🔥 www.mixcloud.com/BreaksBassFa...

Finally got an offer on the house! Norwich is a bit closer.

Multiverse 3 - Triton feat. Krohme & @djds.bsky.social is one year old today! One of our coldest cuts, I especially enjoyed projecting my frustration with local promotors... Yeah even dragons have their gripes 😂 open.spotify.com/album/6XNChe... @manlikechez.bsky.social

Lyrics vid for our track Lazarus with man like @djsoo.bsky.social on the beat. This was the first of the new Multiverse 3 material we put out last summer :)

The peaks! Big of a change from East Anglia I tell thee.

Food fresh from the garden feels way more of a middle finger to The Man than it used to! Grow your own folks, literally or metaphorically. Don't wait for the corps to spoon feed it all to you. I'm not just talking about courgettes either :) manlikechez.bandcamp.com/album/consum...

Wow! A whole year has flown by since @manlikechez.bsky.social and myself performed our first gig as Multiverse 3 in two decades It was at Hope Works and we were backed up by @mamarayray.bsky.social with Ballistikus guesting on the mic for a special Enter The Dragon version of S.A.S. No stopping!

Our tune 'Lazarus' is a year old today, check it out 👇

So dropped an album a bit ago, some views on Bandcamp and streaming, nothing at all on SoundCloud. Not a single listen. Ok, I thought, I only have a handful of followers there,.no biggie. Today I realised the real reason. I had it set to private the entire time. DOH soundcloud.com/andy-chez-41...

Getting excited for next Saturday... Going to be an epic final Hip Hop Lounge blow-out at the Glass Frog There'll be a lot of music events going on around Sheffield next weekend, but if it's raw hip hop beats and rhymes you want, there's only one place to head for! 🐸

Gym folks that have a back made of cream cheese - deadlifts, yes or no? (And yeah I am sticking my bum out properly!)

I'm an apprentice at 47! Only 1 day a week, mind. Usual job the rest of the time. And it's in AI though, I'm not suddenly turning into a brickie or owt. Life's a learning journey innit. Wouldn't have it any other way.

And it's also included on our epic compilation of Multiverse 3 remixes, a snip at £7 for all 24 tracks by great artists Any sales help us send Ben's Centre a load of socks and underpants, we've found to be the true currency of kindness to street people multiverse3.bandcamp.com/album/m3-rem...

And it's up on Bandcamp as name your price, with any proceeds going to Sheffield charity Ben's Centre multiverse3.bandcamp.com/album/epicen...

I can't believe it was three years ago when we released the @manlikechez.bsky.social remix of my Multiverse 3 battle anthem 'Epicentre Maximus' Check it out on Spotify on this link open.spotify.com/album/2oXuQb...

Just got a ton of UK garage ,grime and bassline from a mate's hard drive collection. Once I've sorted through it all a new mix or two will definitely be incoming:)
