It’s being released on a follow-up remix EP, Tomorrow Wasn’t Enough, on January 25th, which will also feature four other remixes, including an LA Riots remix of Rocksteady. HPD’s [...]
New Edwin Van Cleef
This is what happens when you take a break from blogging over the holidays and sit on a few tracks for too long. The dear folks at Valerie well and truly beat you to it. And then those tracks spread all over the goddamn place, such as here and then over here. But regardless, here [...]
The Spirits
I went to see my brother’s band, The Detours, play at the Art Factory a couple of weeks ago, and was fortunate enough to catch unsigned FBi darlings,The Spirits’ opening set. I spent the entire time making the fairly obvious statement to everyone that, “Shit. These guys are awesome (and I’m getting another wine).” Formerly [...]
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 [...]
Diamond Cut Remixes Datostrøm
The producer with a soft spot for wholesome Australian popstars has just sent us his latest remix, that of Datostrøm’s upcoming single, “All I Ever Needed,” and it is, not surprisingly, brilliant. Ever since Discodust’s Aleks articulated Diamond Cut’s sound to be, “somewhere between Lifelike and Anoraak,” I’ve been following his work closely, because you [...]
Soldout – Cuts
Yet another of those bands that are so brilliant I sort of feel like I should have known about them ages ago. I need to fire some of my staff. I can get my own damn cookies. Soldout are Cassandra and David, a couple of tremendously nice-looking Belgians who have just released their sophomore album, [...]
Julien Milan Remixes
We haven’t mentioned anyone from the Bordeaux electro circle here for a while, so I guess that means it’s time to visit one of my favourites, who for some reason I haven’t posted about before, Julien Milan. The 25-year-old Bordeaux native made his live debut four years ago in London, and last year signed to [...]
Shinichi Osawa – Last Days Video
Shinichi Osawa‘s Last Days is a great mix between sweet, melodic guitar and distorted, driving bass – and the video is no different. Using animated ink drawings the video starts off with blotter paper but turns into repetitive, interacting characters. Like almost all of the videos we’ve been featuring over the last few weeks you [...]
Desmond and The Tutu’s
Since i haven’t posted for quite some time, i thought i better have something well worth the wait,(not that you were waiting for me to post or anything.) Desmond and The Tutu’s are one hot little act indeed. Besides having one of the best band names i have ever heard, they also fuse contemporary native [...]
Dmerit Remix The Gay Blades
Ghost: Yeah, look guys, I get it, you need those heads because without them you won’t have any eyes, which makes invading the surface of the moon very difficult, but you’re going to have to give my one back. I don’t want to have to haunt whichever one of you assholes has it for the [...]
Shinichi Osawa Star Guitar Video
In the lead up to the UK release of Shinichi Osawa’s “The One” we are going to be featuring exclusive video content every week for the next 7 weeks. The first video is for Shinichi’s cover of the Chemical Brothers “Star Guitar” featuring the vocals of Au Revoir Simone. The clip features a montage of [...]
Van She – Kelly Reissue
In a shrewd move by Modular Van She are re-releasing their best track to date Kelly with a stack of remixes. When I first heard about this I thought it was a pretty cynical thing to do for a company who’ve had a few losses over the last couple of years. It’s a great track [...]
Melbourne’s 1928 Remixes BMX
I was fifteen when I discovered that despite what they say, you really can forget how to ride a bike after several years of very little practice. I had attempted to make my way to a friend’s yoga class after school one day on her BMX upon her insistence that it would be far easier [...]
I Always Wanted a Pony!
Indeed. I’m still waiting, but at least I got the opportunity to search for images of ponies with a purpose more substantial than simply attending to my own amusement. And despite what my friends might think, this post does not exist entirely because the particular Swedish producers of I Always Wanted A Pony! and I [...]
