More Evil Nine, More!
This photo notwithstanding, I really like Evil Nine, and have done for quite a while. I was (electronically) coming of age in the nu-skool breaks scene just as their debut album ‘You Can Be Special Too’ really started making waves in late 2003, so from the get go their particular brand of stomping, rock-tinged, snare-kick [...]
Triobelisk EP: 1
I don’t know what a zoneplex is, but apparently Triobelisk is the mysterion of it. I don’t even really know what a mysterion is either, and I’ll admit that a little more apologetically because I think it’s actually a real word. My own short-fallings aside, Triobelisk has just released his second EP, the deceptively titled [...]
Tahiti 80 – Activity Center
For those of us still missing the easy-on-the-ears melodic rock of the infuriatingly likable Phoenix, the Rouen-based Tahiti 80’s newest album, Activity Center, might just be a godsend, especially since Phoenix’s most recently (unofficially) released track, Twenty-One One Zero, turned out to be so, umm, unPhoenix-like. But isn’t that a rather lazy comparison, because they’re [...]
Low Motion Disco
Two secretive producers from Belgium, they call themselves Low Motion Disco, and a more descriptive name it would be hard to think of. As they put it: We tend to be the strange kind of party visitors. The ones that would rather stand around and watch people dance than dance themselves. It‘s not a voyeur [...]
Captain – Distraction
Wow, it’s like the second coming of Cajun Dance Party. Again a London-based quintet with an obligatory token girl member, only this time around they’ve managed to graduate from highschool… Although on closer inspection it appears as if this second coming of Cajun Dance Party actually released their debut single before the first coming did, [...]
New Edwin Van Cleef
So my student loan repayments kicked in yesterday, and being as unexpectedly and catastrophically high as they are, they have me well and truly by the proverbials. (Although let it be said for the record that I don’t actually have any proverbials, mainly because I’m a girl, and not a very tough/proverbialsy one at that.) [...]
Bomb The Bass – Future Chaos
I always get slightly nervous when I come to write about an artist such as UK’s Tim Simenon, who maintains the lofty status of one of electronic music’s great figureheads. In this case it all seems particularly out of my depth seeing as the dude contributed significantly to the rise of what NME coined, “DJ [...]
Zach Hill – Astrological Straits
What would you get if you extracted key members from math rock mega-group, Hella, gave their high-profile drummer the conductor’s baton and let him flesh out his ultimate musical fantasies with the likes of Primus’ Les Claypool; the Advantage’s Robbie Moncrief; Deftones/Team Sleep’s Chino Moreno; and The Smell royalty, No Age? If your answer was, [...]
PRESTON PARK
In the all too predictable world of electro and dance, there are people who restore my faith in progress. Preston is one, he is dark, he is mysterious and he certainly has talent. He is a one man band singing and producing under the guise Preston Park. When i first stumbled across his music via [...]
Damn Arms remixed by Narctrax remixed by 1928
You would have seen our earlier post featuring the Damn Arms “The Not So Sophisticated Punks” remixed by Narctrax. Well now 1928 has jumped into the fray to create what is possibly the longest track title ever*. It’s a nice rework of the remix from a great Melbourne band. They have a great live show [...]
And We’re Back
Sorry we’ve been away for a while. It looks like everything is all sorted out now and we should be back to regular posting from today. We are working on a couple of new things at the moment that are pretty exciting so we will keep you in the loop. In the meantime this is [...]
So. Much. Crookers.
Oh good. Exactly what the world needs. Another blog post about Crookers. I have a strange relationship with these Italian boys though. A quick iTunes search reveals 35 separate Crookers tracks and remixes in my collection, and their tunes liberally pepper my DJing CDs, but when it comes down to it, I really only like [...]
Look out Wollongong…
…Azzido da Bass is coming for you.. And for Townsville. And Maitland. He’s even going to Perth, Luke! So i don’t know who AdB’s booking agent is, but if he really wanted a holiday, he should have gone to Phuket – Superstar DJs aren’t don’t fare well in the rugged country backwaters of this great [...]
Pete from Pnau
Because we’re totally mad players here at Electrorash, i got to have a chat with Pete Mayes, the other, not completely mental guy from Elton John’s new favourite band, Pnau. And what a top guy he is too. Check it out here and, for your convenience, here. Go on! Elton John would do it. [...]
