Dandi Wind

Wednesday, February 21st, 2007

I’ll save you from all the obvious Dandi Wind remarks (ie a unitard collection that would make Karen O. jealous)… “Searching Flesh” is the hottest track I’ve heard in for like ever. The more I love something, the harder it is to write about it, and my words degrade to something like, [...]

New Wave Tuesdays

Tuesday, February 20th, 2007

[BIGSTEREO is proud to present: New Wave Tuesdays, a new weekly column by Missingtoof.com]

Today for New Wave Tuesday we have minimal-electro-synth gem Mary Moor’s ‘Pretty Day’. Sparse beats, macabre lyrics sprinkled with electronic accents. ADULT.’s ancestor? Pretty Day is not your traditional 80’s pop, new wave but it came out during the era [...]

VansheTech vs UtahSaints

Tuesday, February 20th, 2007

I’m gonna assume you don’t read Fluokids and/or that you somehow missed this track in your post-Valentines Day love haze. “Something Good” is further proof that VanShe Tech is the just about the best remixer on the planet… eh, this mix has the potential to seriously wound people on the dance floor. Utah Saints have [...]

Kiiiiiii

Monday, February 19th, 2007

Kiiiiiii might be the biggest wtf moment since like ever. There’s a lot to say about this band but I’ll keep it simple: you must check them out. You’re either going to instantly love or instantly hate. There is no middle ground. Total Japan art rock gone… extreme. This is a lazy comparison that isn’t [...]

SXSW

Monday, February 19th, 2007

The “official” schedule for SXSW has been announced — which of course totally has us psyched.
IHEARTCOMIX and AM ONLY have the best showcase planned for Thursday night — and all under one roof. There’s no excuse to be anywhere but the Beauty Bar on 3/15… a ton of BIGSTEREO favorites. Like, woah.

Shy Child

Shy Child - “Drop The Phone” (YouTube)
New Shy Child!! Not much to say about the video, but the track itself is pretty happening. “Drop The Phone” might be their most solid work yet though it’s hard to imagine them surpassing their brilliant debut.

Shakes

Friday, February 16th, 2007

Ok, I know I just posted Shakes a couple weeks ago, and it’s way too soon to be doing another post. But this song is just way too good not to go nuts for… and it’s Friday!
“Disneyland Vacation” explodes… it’s totally out of control. We’re digging this track like twenty times more than “Sister Self [...]

Snowden

Thursday, February 15th, 2007

Atlanta’s Snowden has a new remix ep of tracks re-worked from their album Anti-Anti. A couple of the tracks are familiar… like their (originally Kill Peaches) cover of Fleetwood Mac’s “Dreams” and Le Castle Vania’s “Black Eyes” remix (that we were so playing out this past summer).
Jordan’s alter ego Stutter has created a dance [...]

Robyn

Tuesday, February 13th, 2007

Robyn - “Konichiwa Bitches” (YouTube)
Robyn’s “Konichiwa Bitches” has been bouncing around the internet for a couple years now… never seeing an official release until recently. It’s perfect little slice of internet rap and the first single off her new self titled due out this spring.
Menta’s remix is pretty damn happening too… I played it [...]

Lazaro Casanova

Monday, February 12th, 2007

I haven’t had the chance to meet Lazaro Casanova in person yet, but the guy seems so genuine and relaxed that it seems like a shame for everyone not to know who he is. Apart from DJing and remixing for the likes of The Knife and recently MSTRFKRFT he is now creating his own music [...]
