0:00 Walk through the kitchen

Right, here we are in the middle of Wales and as you would expect to see, excuse me, a few blurred sheep. But you wouldn't really expect this. Now, of course, the irony is people expect sheep, birds, cows in Wales but you'd never expect this. Let me show you. Just go in here. I'm just going to lock the door so we don't get any sheep in here. Walk through the kitchen. And that's a sheep in there at the moment. And here we go. So who the heck are you then in my house? Hey, what's up? This is DJ Delboy here at DJ Tutor's in the middle of nowhere. It is in the middle of nowhere. I believe you got halfway, well you got accosted by a sheep halfway here, is that right? That's for me to know only. That's between me and... I've forgotten her name now. There's been so many. So what, tell us, right.

You've got four decks, you've got a nice little old mixer, you've got some new tunes and promotion where you're concerned. What is happening? Okay, well first of all we've got a fantastic 20 minute mix for you on the four decks. It's all about the new funk and the funky breaks. Now this is a genre of music which has been extremely underground for a while but now it's starting to bubble up and become really, really popular. And we're really on a cusp of a wave with this I think it's about time, I've had a load of tunes stuck up here, I think it's about time that I started to get some of these tunes out of my head and onto vinyl and onto CD for people to hear. So with the sort of emergence of this genre of music, my skills sort of coming together and a friend of mine who's a fantastic producer, I'm going to start putting together a few tunes.

All of, you know, mostly of this sort of genre. Maybe a few other curveball surprises that people would sort of know I'm famous for and get my name out there which is going to be a new artist's name for me. It's Delimentary. So when people see some strange stuff going on on Facebook and YouTube and you see the name Delimentary pop up, that's the reason why. Quick question, right. Do you think you will always keep the Del Boy name? Because what, you see what I'm trying to picture here is maybe Del Boy, the punk style, but then Delimentary to more pro. What can you see happening? Or will it be Del Boy old, Delimentary new? Do you know there'll always be a whole bunch of people that will know me always as Del Boy. It'll never change that. Seriously, yeah. But on the advice of some really good professional people, you know, to sort of elevate myself a little bit higher and get people to take me a bit more seriously. Yeah. You know, I've taken this information on board and that is basically that, you know, to be taken seriously...

A name like Del Boy doesn't really cut up the mustard, as it were. So I'm just trying to bring myself to a whole new level. I was listening earlier on. I like that tune. We want... Give them a taster. You want this dirty bass line that comes in... Listen, check it out. You ready for this? No! Booyaka! Yeah. All right, sir, in your own time. Yeah, we're going to kick off with the iPad here, which is... Taking the world by storm at the moment, and I like embracing new technologies all the time. So we're just going to kick off with this, and we're going to do a bit of a tips and tricks session with this in a wee while. Alright, let's go.

Listen up people, my mind's elementary dropping the funky breaks. Mad skills baby, mad skills. What's that sound? What's going back? What's that sound? What's going back?
