This is it – the new sound of summer. Right here. The Norwegian producer Andreas Rasmussen who goes by the moniker Pandreas, dropped me a quick short email earlier this week, about his love for photography and music, leaving his soundcloud link for me to get into. If I’m honest, I wasn’t expecting much. “Noise...
We’re on a roll with this bass business this week aren’t we. Enigma Dubz is James Vine based in Birmingham. He’s got some ace productions up his sleeves for awhile now, this one below is one of my favorites: This guy can switch from deep, garage-y vibes with warm, emotional synths to something dark like...
Just staring out of the window from my apartment right now. Night time, lights coming on and off, cars on quiet city streets, buildings standing still in the unusual warm spring heat. I’ve got Tokyo Prose on the soundsystem and I’m totally sinking inside the depth of the sounds coming out of my speakers. This...
A little something from Mighty Mouse for a Monday evening. He’s twisted this electro track by Nyteowl into sweet disco vibes with a touch of nu. The remix drifts into krafty power disco while still retaining the punchy beats of the original. I’m sure fans of Grum will relate. [Nyteowl - Love of Mine (Mighty...
Festival season is almost upon us. And with it, come the news that Wild Beasts will be headlining Beacons Festival 2012. Other amazing acts to grace the Beacons stage(s) in the Funkirk Estate in Skipton near Leeds include Maya Jane Coles (whose exploits have been thoroughly documented in this blog in the past), another Bad...
Writing this post as I’m sat at Wharf Chambers. They’re playing Bikini Kill right now and I’m thinking, how apt. Anyway, Desert Sharks – I FUCKING LOVE THESE GUYS. If you like The Donnas and Veruca Salt you’ll dig em. Bad ass garage rock with pop sensibilities. Ok, maybe not as bad ass as The...
La Machine are a boy and a girl from Leeds doing noise pop stuff. Its pop, with extreme guitar distortions and vocals on high gain. So far they’ve played a few shows and got a free ep out, Spirit Level which is out via their bandcamp. I’m seriously digging the nu disco remix by Punk...
Conjuring the darker sounds of Gary Numan and The Normal in pure and minimal electronic form comes Goitia Deitz, a group that I have been late to feature. With their strong attachment to Krautrock and Italo, this Brooklyn duo compose tracks that can be both cosmic and cold at the same time. Rolling insistent beats...
I’ve just had a fucked-up day. It’s cold and freezing. I thought, hey, lets check out this gig tonight and cheer myself up coz Azores (ex-members of Cissy) is playing and it’s time to check out new bands that I probably would not have come across in my usual circuit. So I packed my camera...

Mar 18, 2012 • New bit from myself. Went on a proper house flex, lots of bass and shuffled 125bpm drums. Kinda went for a mash of UKG and Techno. Anyway here is a soundcloud link. Also did a freebie a few weeks ago, if you missed it. Thanks!
Why Rush is going to be a 3 day experimental and multimedia performance event held inside, Temple Works, a Grade I listed building. And if you have been inside the Temple Works, you will know why the building was perfect for this. Far from the hospital-clean, minimal and zen art spaces we’re used to with...
Stephen Lee Clarke from Wrongpop hit me up on facebook to pass on some very important information. This information is regarding Wrongpop: Volume 1, a compilation of songs from up and coming bands in aid of Deafness Research UK. Some really awesome bands in here; Shield Your Eyes (check out photos from their set in...
