Aeons
Ooh ooh ooh! What do we have here, it looks like VISITOR have met their match in the form of Sydney-siders, Aeons. They’ve even got the genius Diamond Cut to do production and mixing duties! While I plot a date and time to ask what the VISITOR boys think of this, I’m also kinda lappin...
Miami Nights 1984
Miami Nights 1984 is one man that goes by the name of Mike Glover. I really wish I got this from him sooner a coupla months back when I hit him up, you know, when I was dead obsessed with this kinda stuff. I swear, the age of digital media seriously encourages my ADD. 80s...
NightWaves – Fascination (Keenhouse Remix)

Check out the excellent post on FABIAN for more awesome downloads and videos. [LexiconDon - December Sunset (Keenhouse Remix)] [NightWaves - Fascination (Keenhouse Remix)]...
Starsmith
This boy knows how to do good pop. Starsmith has been on my radar for quite awhile but I’ve never really had the time to find out more about this london music college graduate. His skills are really diverse: this dude jumps from pop rnb to french filter house like it’s nothin. Ok yeah sure...
Printed Circuit
More chiptunes for you! I know Claire through a friend and we’ve been to her Printed Circuit gigs at Funder Strikes and other Cops And Robbers gigs a coupla times but we never really spoke, partly because in reality I’m a shy git. Printed Circuit is Claire’s electro music project and she’s been doing it...
David Borkmann
OHMYGOD! Binary, VALERIE and all you dreamwave lovers LISTEN UP! We’ve got a new entrant in the form of swedish house producer David Borkmann! Brought to you by the awesome folks at Urban Torque, David’s sexy vocals in the Mercury and the lazy euphoria of Superior has all the hallmarks of Anoraak but with a...
Solvent – Loss For Words (Video)
“In Simeon Tennant’s video for Solvent’s “Loss for Words” (the first single from Subject to Shift ), a pair of romantically entwined shapes watch helplessly as their relationship dissolves. Both the gray square and his fluffy, pink girlfriend seem at a “Loss for Words” as they drift into their respective solitudes. Tennant’s lo-fi computer animation...
Keenhouse
First of all, let me proclaim my love for all things Binary. They’ve got NightWaves, Short Circuit and Keenhouse on the same roster. If that isn’t perfect, I don’t know what is. These are the kids who created dreamwave, that soulful, dreamy, lyrically beautiful, synth pop that are real actual songs, as opposed to being...
Awkoder
More nostalgic tunes tonight folks. This time, its by Awkoder from France. He’s done this absolutely lush remix of Birds Escape‘s song, My Sky. This is one sweet, slow track. The synth stabs are dreamy and the vocals are kinda like Kid Sister / Uffie, which fits perfectly. I know I’ve been on a disco-house...
Thieves Like Us – Again & Again
Thieves Like Us has announced the release of their second full length effort, Again And Again. There is definitely more guitar-work in this one, compared to the last album. It’s not like the vintage synths totally took a backseat, it’s still there, dreamy as ever but in songs like Lover Lover, the guitar take centre...
Anoraak
The beautiful Anoraak returns with a new track and a new release. Anoraak caught the whole scene by storm with Nightdrive With You back in 2008. Now he’s back with a debut album, scheduled for release at the end of August 2010. [Video: Anoraak - Night Drive With You] Got a heads up through his...
Solvent
Yeah robots can dance but imagine a robot with deep emotions. That is what Jason Amm aka Solvent sounds like. Making analog synth-pop with such finely crafted melodies and a twee, electro-pop sensibility. Catchy and complexed at the same time. Loss For Words, the first Single from Subject to Shift will be out on Ghostly...
