5. why does tunetourist get to eat space purportedly allotted to responses to crystal castles?

   incidentally, upon having listened today for the first time, i am overwhelmed by the beautiful melody that bursts through–and almost in spite off–the atari chains that paradoxically tether and keep that Alice track so damned free

37. I love them, and have for some time. My favs are Make it Hott, ALice Practice and the LittleOnes remix. We have a monthly dance party called Making Time here in Philly. There we get all sorts of fun electro artists. Anyone from The Presets, THe Raptsure, Digitalism, The Faint, Crystal Castles etc….

53. In light of the new evidence of Crystal Castles stealing, not only artwork, but now apparently music as well, the above blog post might be seen in a slightly different light. I do not know Trevor Brown, and didn’t think all that much of his claims previously. But now I am looking at this all very differently. I also like their music, but apparently, they are creeps who steal artwork and music as well. Follow the link to read about CC songs RELEASED on their new CD that contains uncleared pieces of other chiptune (8 bit) musicians’ tracks. In one case the chunk they took is quite long and makes up a large part of their song.

    “Ethan” (Claudio) from Crystal Castles, has distanced himself from the chiptune community in the past, claiming he wrote the music BEFORE he knew about the chiptune community. The sampled chiptune songs by Lo-bat and Covox show that this is a lie and it reveals his complete disrespect for the artists he is ripping off. Nice one Claudio. What an ass.

    Start here if you want to know about this:

    I have no doubt more will surface about them soon.
