Dukes of Windsor Remix Competition
The Dukes of Windsor are running a remix competition for their latest single “Runaway“. The orginal is a good track but they definitely need something for the DJ’s. The comp is supported by Nova radio , Electrorash.com and Raewondo DJ servicing so the winner and select runners up will get widespread exposure – and maybe [...]
The Punks Jump UP
Punks Jump Up are in Australia at the moment embarking on their first tour for music and their second for pleasure. I was lucky enough to get Dave out of bed to have a chat about what they’ve been working on, their fusion of fashion and music and what they’re plotting this time around. So [...]
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 – [...]
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 [...]
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 [...]

Shincihi Osawa keeps pumping out the tracks – this time with a 12″ of Push off of The One. The track features Frances answer to Mickey Avalon, electro singer Ania whose myspace you should definitely check out here. The One finally get’s released in the UK today the 26th of January with this 12″ coming [...]
The New Year
It’s taken me a while to get back into it but here I am, sucked out of a blog-free existence thanks to a couple of tracks from my personal favourites, La Mode. I’ve raved on about these guys a fair bit in the past both here at electrorash and irl. Bec even did a post [...]
Metronomy – I’ve Got My Mind Made Up Video
A Thing For Me from Metronomy on Vimeo. Too cute and then too funny.
Metronomy + Architecture In Helsinki
With all the festival madness going on at the moment I’ve managed to avoid most of the hype and focus on a few key acts I wanted to see. For December it was Whitest Boy Alive who I saw at Nevereverland on Sunday and it was incredible. For January I’ll be checking out Lykke Li [...]
Your Name – Your Track (Shinichi Osawa remix)
Well this is a remix competition with a difference. The normal process is an artist releases all the parts for one of their better tracks and all the blog house producers of the world chop the shit out of it with, let’s face it, generally sub-par results. As a slight change of pace Southern Fried [...]
Electrorash Survey 2008 – Win Tickets to Good Vibrations!
Hey all, Well we’ve been bloggin for a year and a half now which is actually a really long time. We’ve had ups and plenty of downs (damn you Dreamhost!) and now we’re working towards ramping everything up with a new design. We’ve also signed up to an advertising network called Mr Chop who have [...]
Lost Valentinos – Bismarck
Wow. I’ve been waiting for this to drop and it’s as good, if not better than I was hoping for. Bismarck is the first single off of the Lost Valentinos upcoming album. The single is pretty great with the original, a Knife Machine (a Lost Valentino’s production), Dexpistols and a Goldenbug version. Lost Valentinos [...]
