White Fold
What started as a mix tape trading relationship between, Cory Thomas Hanson and Jesse Hlebo quickly morphed into an intricate aural and visual project that gave birth to White Fold. Hanson is better known as W-H-I-T-E and Hlebo via Swill Children. The two collaborated throughout the summer of 2011 to produce the material on the...

Freeze-Tag – Tidal Wave [Video]
New video by Freeze-Tag for Tidal Wave. It debuts TODAY and you guys are one of the first few to see this. If you’re wondering what that lovely piece of kit in the video is, it’s the Roland SP-55, a sweet loops / sampler workstation and evidently, Freeze Tag’s tool of choice. Wanna download Tidal...
Somebody Still Loves You Boris Yeltsin – Tape Club
Somebody Still Loves You Boris Yeltsin‘s latest release, Tape Club is a mammoth collection of 26 songs, each hand picked lovingly from the band’s archive of songs they have been crafting in the 10 years that they have been together. The tracks span from the Broom-era release to their last release Let It Sway ....
Mitzi – Voyage Voyage (Zig Zag Cover)
This one is a new one, dropped into my inbox by Future Classic, that Australian label who brought you Flight Facilities. As part of their compilation series of Australian bands covering French hits, Future Classic introduce us to Mitzi, reviving the vintage cosmic disco sounds of French-Canadian band, Zig Zag. Listen to the original track...
The Rapture – How Deep Is Your Love
A few months ago The Rapture released How Deep Is Your Love. On Tuesday this week, DFA got in touch with the release of the vinyl version of the remixes that includes A-Trak‘s Dub For Mehdi version, a homage to his good friend Dj Mehdi who passed away a few months ago and a remix...
Death Rattle
My favorite band Los, who became That Mouth, have split up in September and I didn’t even know about it until recently, when I saw this feed on my facebook for this new band called Death Rattle. I’ve had the great privelage of organizing a gig with them on the bill last year and am...
Chocolate Robots
If you caught a whiff of the Strokes with this and felt like it’s an American version of the Libertines, then you’re not alone. I kinda like the shambolicness of it all and the story about this band is actually more than meets the eye (and quite impressive.) Chocolate Robots is Mike, Marco and Mutt...
School of Seven Bells – The Night
Yeah, that’s the new School of Seven Bells line up. My first thought was, what happened to Claudia? And then I remembered she left like, last year. :( Sad times. Vagrant has just hit us up with this brand new track, The Night from the upcoming album Ghostory and their signature dreamy harmonies that I...
Yacht – I Walked Alone (Larry Gus Remix)
I have a love / hate thing with Yacht. I don’t exactly why. The first time I was introduced to this guy, I convinced myself that I didnt get it: all that overblown, self important art school fluff. He’s probably single-handedly started the hipster-y triangle craze. Wasn’t really a fan of The Blow either. It’s...
Holy Ghost! – Wait And See (Christian Strobe Remix)
A pre x-mas gift from Christian Strobe, quite a good one for a Sunday night. He’s turned this indie / disco dance track from Holy Ghost! into a poppier uplifting “cosmic house” number – big beats and warm synths that take you round the universe and back. The video for the original track is really awesome....
Fiordmoss
First on the list and my personal favorite by a long way is Fiordmoss. They are a 3-piece outfit consisting of a singer, acoustic guitar, and a synth/sample/keyboard player. The result is something that is akin to Portishead and Bjork, in equal parts but a lot better and different.
HOLY – The Wrong Side
Holy is a FUCKING AWESOME shouty screamy hardcore punk from Milano, Italy. Lashings, of tough old-school styles meets Level Plane records screamo vocals. Short, fast, loud – 8 furious songs recorded pretty much over the course of a few days in a hot rehearsal studio in Italy. Their self titled ep is coming out January...
