Cubicle Monster / EKcribs / Failed Lipdubbing

Hello peeps. Not very much has happened these last few weeks. Other than the fact I was (and still am) kind of sick. I was grounded for around 10 days because I suffered from severe headaches and was unable to operate.
So I’m basically trying to figure out a way to overcome those, and one of [...]

From Kenya to Lebanon via India. The Dubai Metro.

Nairobi. Kenya. A beautiful country with amazing people. The K-sisters gave us a little bite-size of what their nation had to offer a couple weeks back when I flew with them both. Remember ? That was in Frankfurt. Not exactly the African continent, close enough when you have these two on board ! So we [...]

August Roster Detailed : it’s about time b****es.

Hey so after some Mojito at Zuma’s yesterday followed closely by a Havana & Coke we decide to call it a day. Woke up this morning at 18h30. Yes that’s in the afternoon or evening more like. We jump on our BMXs and go straight to Bert’s for an internet fix and to check if [...]

So far, So Good. Or supposedly. TWO NEW LAVIATORS. DL#81.

Geeez, where do I start ?! It’s seems like a decade since I blogged something. Time just flies by so quickly. Been super busy and super tired. Since I last updated the blog I went to Kuala Lumpur (Malaysia), Tripoli (Libya), Tunis (Tunisia), Chennai (India) and heading to my beloved monthly Bombay/Mumbai very soon. Hey [...]

I Need Wheels, hot wheels !!

I’m so jealous of that little bastard of a kid in that picture. I want one of those bikes. One of those uber-cool, uber-retro, uber-60’s, uber-70’s bicycle ! I need wheels, desperately. I’m now living in a relatively bike-safe part of Dubai and eager to discover the greens, go to the supermarket and look so [...]

DOWNLOADABLES #80. Chromeo / Fancy Footwork. Update on my move…

Ever since Oz bluetoothed this track to me yesterday, I haven’t stopped playing it. It’s desperately catchy, insanely groovy and the 80’s synth-electro-rock-pop sound of the whole deal makes me wanna… boogie.
Chromeo is a Montreal based electrofunk duo whose music is described as “a shameless return to the glistening, sex-saturated synth-pop which ruled the eighties.”
The [...]

Airboy does Shanghai #2 + VIDEO

I haven’t been on a layover for a hell a long time and going to CBC with a cargo suitcase actually felt good. We were bound for Shanghai in China. The flight over was busy as ever and lasted around 8 hours (chock to chock). I was happy after my string of turnarounds to finally [...]

Well Done. Update of the last 72 hours

You probably remember one of my highly entertaining Mauritius trips back last month. We had to deal with something unusual on-board while cruising over the Indian Ocean (ETOPS, meaning far away from any suitable airport to divert to). I cannot give you any details as briefed but upon checking my snail-mail inbox this morning (I [...]

Common Flight Attendant problems : Layover Blues.

I’ve experienced such state a few times already. Doing circles in my hotel room like a goldfish in bowl. As it might sound funny from the outside, it isn’t for the one living it. Living this fast paced life can lead to all sorts of different behaviors and moods you never thought you’d go through. [...]

What went down in Paname (slang for Paris) + VIDEO

I apologize for the lateness of this post but priorities remain priorities and things will never change : ie, blogging about me getting lost in a random part of Dubai seemed much more entertaining than my Parisian hols…Anyway… I came back from Paris, France from my little 8 day break just over a week ago [...]

DOWNLOADABLES #74 / Tonite Only – City rooftop, in your tanktop, rainbow stylin’

OOOhhh God, I haven’t posted any tracks in a long time ! Well, no more waiting folks, I have FOUR KILLER TUNES to share with you today. It’s raining here in Dubai, yesterday we saw hail smashing down our dirty windows and gust winds slashing lightweight kids away from their mothers… Today my habibis your [...]

Airboy does Mauritius in 2009 / Atlantis Resort in Dubai

Before I go on and rant about this dreamy place I just went to. I’ll bore you for a few minutes more and let you all know that I finally paid a visit to the Palm Jumeirah and its now famous Atlantis resort. Earlier on last year (November 4th I think) they opened the place [...]

Today we’re focusing on remixes with the likes of DiscoTech who has been on the North American scene for quite some time now. He rocks the decks at [...]
