The allure of his face draws victims closer which by day appears kind…
By night…
But by night his hidden secrets appear. As the rum starts to pour under UV light the darkside of Balla is revealed and demon within is unleashed on its victims.
So I recently took delivery of my new favourite bit of kit the DJI Mavic Pro. I've not worked on editing a video on a long long time so this was my first of many. Showing a few view points from around my beautiful home town of Bournemouth. The weather on Saturday was incredible and the first signs of spring. The warmth felt amazing, and the views from Hengistbury head were just to die for. I hope you enjoy this little sample video.

Intro By James Bridle
The grand master of EDM and savage production is back with its phase one line up. Miami Ultra 2016 displays some of the best in electronic dance music there is to offer. The Prodigy set to headline and no doubt rock an unforgettable and truly unmissable set, as well as the return of Pendulum. The regular but always exciting return of Carl Coxx after his final year of Space residency in Ibiza. It will be great to see what he brings to his immersive arena and 12th year at Ultra Miami. The main stage at Ultra, which is broadcast round the world carries with it the faces of Avicii and Hardwell. Two names that bring energy, excitement and new music hurtling into everyones summer to come.
No one can deny Armin Van Buuren and Tiesto’s live performances and links with production have bought so many people to tears as they stand side by side, with people they have only just met in a crowd 50 thousand strong. The Bedroom DJ Martin Garrix has gone from strength to strength since his first appearance on the MainStage back in 2014 and will bring with him the love and admiration of his fans, that will no doubt give goosebumps those lucky enough to be attending Miami Music Week 2016.
