In the music business, they don’t get much nicer than Kurt and Leah from kap10kurt. Seriously, whatever they’re made of should be bottled and sold for a ridiculous price to people that are mean. And the government should force them to pay.
Anyway, they’ve just released their official debut video clip for their track, Dangerseekers, (which you can download here) and it’s beyond awesome. This is the stuff I hope my dreams will consist of when I’m about to fall asleep. Want space stations and lasers and anonymous bad guys racing through the desert on motorbikes? Ok. A massive evil robot with rockets? Ok. A rad Transformer car with lasers and a cassette player that turns into a record player that’s built into his freaking arm…? Ok! The clip was made by the French video collective, The Holograms, who are pretty much the people you need to go to when you want a video clip that’s better than everyone else’s. And if you ever need a fake/new name for whatever reason, I’d suggest you borrow one from one of the Holograms. You could have your choice of Vincent Viriot, Emilie Rousseau, Mathieu Gastaldi or FX Pourre. My name is so lame.
And things on Planet Kap10kurt aren’t going to slow down any time soon, with an upcoming tour of Japan, another Dave Gahan official remix, another single, a debut album…

[...] To commemorate their first birthday, the brilliant Waves at Night have come up with the goods in the form of two brand new Moulinex remixes. The first is one we’ve been hanging out for since Luis Moulinex told us about it way back here, and it has certainly turned out to be well worth the wait. It’s of New York-based Kap10Kurt’s recently released track, Mission Complete, the fast, punchy electro romp into which the Portugese-born, Munich-based Moulinex has infused many a crystal shard to sit within his playful, melodic layering. The thing I love about Kap10Kurt’s production work is, like DatA’s and Kavinsky’s, it has a distinct narrative quality to it, it’s more than just dancefloor fodder, each track is practically begging for some kind of futuristic animated clip of which it can be the soundtrack. Let’s hope the Mission Complete one turns out as entertaining as the Dangerseekers one. [...]
