Ladies of the Dancehall
I was wondering whether or not to try and include some form of dancehall spelling in the above title, but I figured that this post is going to make me look horrifically white and totally out of my depth as is, so the last thing I needed to be doing was trying to spell ‘Ladies’ [...]
Visitor – Los Feeling
Formerly Cobra Dukes, then formerly What She Wants, UK’s Visitor are giving us the first glimpse of their brand new Diamond Cut-produced material with the cosmically-charged Los Feeling. It’s a terribly pretty, stirring voyage into the realm of shimmery stadium pop, and it’s of course had the labels scratching feverishly at their door for more. [...]
Bulletproof Gets Heavy
I think one of the best things about the rapid ascendance of this current crop of electro-pop songstresses (see Boots, Little, Goulding, Ellie, The Diamonds, Marina and) is that they are, to a person, proving to be ripe, varied and exciting remix subjects. And we’re not talking just the straight up space disco/electro-house rewrites either; [...]
Jakwob
Initially I’d observed this year’s escalation of dubstep in a rather disdainful manner, but figured there was only so long I could hold out before I’d start to look like a wilful idiot. I might still look like an idiot for being so reluctant to embrace it in the first place, but at least now [...]
Potential Wife of the Week: Ellie Goulding
[with apologies to Lykke. You've been supplanted. For the moment.] Beyond the rampant ascent of dubstep, early 2009′s other major, more marketable trend seems to be coming in the form of a new breed of ultra-cute, female indie/electro-pop darlings. Think Little Boots, La Roux, Marina and the Diamonds and now the new entrant in the [...]
Emil & Friends Remix Little Boots
In true Little Boots fashion, we’ve already seen a billion and one remixes of her latest single, New in Town, but this one warrants a mention for its awesome new direction. Emil Hirsch and his gang of nameless sidekicks have crammed Victoria Hesketh’s pretty vocals through a vocoder, letting them ooze out alongside some mercurial [...]
CHEW LiPS Remixed by Tepr
London’s new dance-pop three-piece, CHEW LiPS, are looking to join the bourgeoning ranks of acts with strong female leads such as La Roux, Little Boots and Marina & the Diamonds. Frontwoman, Tigs, had a fairly unsuccessful solo career a couple of years back, releasing a debut album, Cut With Fire, which did little to rescue [...]
Et Justus Pout Tous
I was reading the new Malcom Gladwell book, Outliers, recently. It’s about how environmental factors play an important part in the success of people we commonly refer to as geniuses… whilst it hardly discredits the talents of Billy Gates et al, it’s an interesting read that suggests that the unbelievable achievements of some are perhaps [...]
Treasure Fingers Remix Little Boots
They probably could have done a little more with this, it sort of feels slightly subdued. But it’s nothing if it’s not a little bit of fun. Little Boots – Meddle (Treasure Fingers Remix) Thanks Discobelle. More Little Boots remixes here. - bec
Little Boots vs Richard X
Now that’s a nice-looking dress. London’s Richard X has weighed in on the increasingly potent Little Boots phenomenon with a mashup of Fake Blood’s ridiculously good remix and the classic Opus III track, It’s a Fine Day. Ordinarily I would refuse to condone a mashup, but I’ll totally make an exception for this one, because [...]
Designer Drugs Love Mimi & Little Boots
Designer Drugs are completely on fire right now. I’m still obsessed with their Mariah Carey remix, and it’s been almost two weeks since IHEARTCOMIX originally posted it. So the fact that my blog-house-related attention span has almost made it to the two-week mark and I’m not even a little bit sick of the track (which [...]
