Electrorash favourite, Diamond Cut, has very kindly taken time out of his crazy schedule to send us his latest remix, that of British pop duo, Booty Luv’s new single, “Say It.” Dude has totally straightened out the rather textbook original with his driving bassline and those eternally lovely synths that I’ll probably never grow weary [...]
With his brand-new track, ‘Crusader,’ we can finally catch a glimpse of Knightlife’s second EP, the appropriately titled, II. Melbourne’s Cutters Records will of course be looking after this release, with more news of it to come in the following months.

Following their first two releases on Acephale [...]
Aptly described by Derek Neon Gold as a combination of Vampire Weekend, The Postal Service and R. Kelly, with references to Japan both lyrical and aesthetic, Vampire Weekend keyboardist, Rostam Batmanglij, has teamed up with Ra Ra Riot’s Wes Miles, to form a new side-project, Discovery. Set to take 2009 by storm, this lively duo, [...]
