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...
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....
NEW VIDEO: Housse de Racket – Chateau
Housse de Racket‘s new album, Alesia is out now in the states and you’ve probably already seen the video for the track Roman on the NME. New single Chateau just been given the video treatment by none other than Sanghon Kim, the fine art graphic designer who did the album’s cover. Watch it – it’ll...
Exclusive: Kevin Jonson – Frozen Road EP
Kevin Jonson and the Huble imprint is testament to the kind of quality techno coming out of France at the moment – my kind of techno. Minimal, elegant, sharp beats, the title track Frozen Road, especially, gets down seriously deep. A little bit dark and melancholy. Serious stuff. I know I can be quite euro-centric...
SoHight – Boys EP
We kick things off this month with SoHight’s new ep released by my family in France, Yeah Dish recs. Gotta love this label for coming up with the goods time and time again Any surprises why this one made the cut on this blog? SoHight are two Russian blokes doing that synth pop thing, kinda...
White Bamby feat. Laure Milena – On The Sand EP
I knew this was going to be perfect from the moment I clicked on it. White Bamby, so the fairy tale goes, met in the Aegen sea, fell in love with the same girl, decided to make music out of the experience and found some random statue that inspired them to name themselves White Bamby....
Karin Park – Tiger Dream (Photek Remix)
An excellent free giveaway of the nordic singer, Karin Park’s single, Tiger Dreams remixed by Photek, is up for grabs. I bet you’ll say “Oh my god she sounds like Bjork,” which is fair play because she does, but not in a cheap, copy-cat way. I wont pretend to have any knowledge of Nordic singing...
Beni – Someone Just Like You (Style of Eye Remix)
So we featured Beni’s It’s A Bubble track and awesome video quite a while ago. The track was taken from the highly anticipated album House of Beni (Modular). And since the album is gonna get released in the UK digitally come November 7th, the press folks are upping the hype, (which is always a good...
Freeze-Tag
Hailing from Ohio, Freeze-Tag describes his music as “futuristic soul” inspired by retrograde tones. He also tries to do everything about music “in the spirit of jazz”. Very interesting. We have some free downloads here from the man himself, so take a moment to digest Freeze-Tag’s “prisma-chromatic” sounds. They are a bit on the minimal...
