Will the dogs and cats ever stop, you ask? Good lord, no. This time the particular puppies in question are the well-loved Sydney Pomomofo boys, who are gearing up to release their new EP, In Super VGA, very soon on local label, Bandroom Records. We’re expecting great things from this EP, its debut single, Island, [...]
Hello again. Again.
So i’m back from far off travels in the land of low taxed beer. Europe is pretty cool. It’s also pretty small and pretty full of mad parties. Thanks to the guys from The Fakes in Prague for helping a brother out in the medieval shopping mall known as Prague. Your town is loose. MASSIVE [...]
Delorean Gets Their Remix On
You may remember Spanish electro-rockers Delorean from this post. If you don’t and are too lazy to click through that link (there’s hidden treasure on the other side, I promise), then as a brief summary, Delorean = awesome. And as true testament to that fact, here’s an absolutely gorgeous remix they’ve just completed of the [...]
Bomb The Bass – Future Chaos
I always get slightly nervous when I come to write about an artist such as UK’s Tim Simenon, who maintains the lofty status of one of electronic music’s great figureheads. In this case it all seems particularly out of my depth seeing as the dude contributed significantly to the rise of what NME coined, “DJ [...]
The Rex The Dog Show
Listening to Rex the Dog’s long-awaited debut LP (well, at least as far as the Rex the Dog moniker is concerned – Jake Williams, the man behind Rex, has been producing dance music since 1993) ‘The Rex the Dog Show’ you start to realise two things. One, that Rex is making some of the best [...]
Songs From 3 Continents…
First Africa. Discovered by Radioclit in a furniture or bike shop or something like that near their studio, Esau Mwamwaya (above with Radioclit) is a Malawian native that just makes great music. He’s already recorded his album, with guest apparences from M.I.A, Santogold, Bondo De Role and parts of Vampire Weekend… he is one of [...]

Don Rimini
I am all over Don Rimini like some horrible, horrible rash. I guess you could almost call it an… Electrorash… Yeah? High fives! Right. In case you haven’t heard, Parisian Don Rimini is the next big thing in awesome. Sitting somewhere in between the twitching grooves of the Crookers and the four-to-the-floor rave madness of [...]
Allow Me To Reintroduce Myself, My Name Is…
Erm, Plimsouls. One or two of you might know me from my little forays into production/remixing. If you don’t, you’re missing out (I’d like to think); hit me up. I’ve also just started a blog, Techno Jihad. Ned got wind of it’s total freaking awesomeness, and asked me if I’d fancy doing the odd post [...]
Grinderman’s No Pussy Blues Remixed
Nick Cave just got even more sexy. Assumedly in a move to get everyone excited about their upcoming festival appearances over there in Europe, Grinderman have just released some remixes of their legendary track, No Pussy Blues, and they’re pretty fucking great. The most exciting remix for me is Midfield General’s, whom I love but [...]

I always have the most amazing time at an Amy Meredith show. Dudes really know how to make you dance. The Sydney boys’ debut EP hits stores all over Australia today, but if, like me, you’re frightened of that ridiculous wind outside, you can find it online at Sanity.com. And just in time for this [...]
