Jimmmy Oh Jimmy

Adventures In My Ego Part 1
Ok, so it’s been a while… I’ve been pretty quiet on the music front for one reason or another, but that’s all about to change. My debut E.P comes out on Pieces of Eight Records (home of Cassette Jam and Style of Eye) in April. In celebration of this momentous occasion, here are three tracks. [...]
Scatterblog Music Presents… Real Music For Hustlers
Some people talk about first, second, third and fourth generation blogs. Seeing as Electrorash started in July 2007 we are probably along the lines of a third or fourth gen with someone like Stereogum or Pitchfork being amongst the first. Scatterblog would probably be in the second or third generation having started in 2006 – [...]
Acid Girls’ HEALTH Megamix
After hearing an assortment of some pretty awful dance music lately, the opportunity to revisit LA’s lean, skeletal noise rock outfit, HEALTH, was such a pleasure. Their material is like an aural palate-cleanser. Having previously produced two remixes of the frenzied “Triceratops,” Grindin’s own Acid Girls have now gathered a handful of remixes taken from [...]
Simian Mobile Disco – Synthesise
This is an awesome video put together by Kate Moross and Alex Sushon from Dot Alt. I missed out on seeing SMD when they came to town last month which I will forever be bummed about. Well at least until I get to see them, hopefully later this year. The clip is not for the [...]
Kilometre
Like Woah! alter egos Ted & Francis sent over a package entitled ‘Fun for all’. I’m not sure if its fun, but I really like this Tellier remix I found inside. T & F define it as the ‘Chiller’ mix, it contains an extra warm bass line and just enough piano to get you bobbing. [...]
Circlesquare Endorses Drug Use, Dancing
Part man, part geometric paradox (a circle can’t be a square, that’s just silly), Circlesquare is Vancouver born Jeremy Shaw, now resident of Berlin, where I can only imagine his particular brand of stripped-back, spacious and laconic electronica plays well with the minimal after party set. He’s been putting out tracks since 1999, carefully honing [...]
Todd Terje Australian Tour
Last week I got a chance to interview Todd Terje and as with all of my past interviews the introduction was predictably bad. To give you an idea of my history my very first interview was with Calvin Harris at his hotel in Melbourne. Being the super organised guy that I am I typed up [...]
Turbo Recordings Australian Tour
Tiga’s Turbo Recordings is gracing Australian shores with it’s presence starting this weekend in Melbourne as part of the label’s 10th birthday celebrations. Tiga himself was a little tied up putting together his next album (with Soulwax and Jesper Dahlback) to make it but he’s sent his trusty label mates the Proxy and Thomas Von [...]
I Wanna Get… Physical, Physical
Pretty much everyone knows about Get Physical. One of the outstanding labels of the past few years, they’ve released records by people such as Booka Shade, Samim and Tiger Stripes. Another fantastic artist that they put out is Patrice Baumel. Lots of people have been playing ‘Roar’ out in recent times… whilst its a decent [...]
