Mr. Oizo

Wednesday, April 11th, 2007

So Mr. Oizo aka Quentin Dupieux and I collaborated on this next song. ….Not really, but I feel like he pressed ‘record’ on my thoughts during my last walk home on the streets of San Francisco. Sometimes it’s like going down a mental checklist of every different variation of sexuality. Transexual…check. Bisexual…check. [...]

Bonde Do Role - “Solta O Frango” (Imeem)
Brazil taking over. The video for “Solta O Frango” doesn’t quite capture the intensity of their live show, but it is one of the better videos to land in our inbox in a long time. Fake chicken fights are super.
Bonde Do Role’s With Lasers seems like it [...]

Lucrate Milk

Tuesday, April 10th, 2007

Masto & Laulm, Two ex-milk delivery boys started Lucrate Milk (short for lucrative milk) in 1979 & were later joined by two other mates. With a penchant for the absurd & anything morbid the band went about making music with nihilism & careless.
Interest in expressionism & the dadaism combined with the members [...]

Check Yo Pony Tail: Adult.

Tuesday, April 10th, 2007

Been loving the new Adult. album? April 24th is LA’s Check Yo’ Ponytail with Adult., Erase Errata and Parts & Labor. Resident DJs Franki Chan and Paparazzi. Very solid line up. Of course.

The Black Ghosts

The Black Ghosts - “Anyway You Choose To Give It” (YouTube)
We’ve posted The Black Ghosts a few times before — but their latest “Anyway You Choose To Give It” pretty much solidifies them as a bona fide favorite. Totally can’t wait for the album. Let’s say anticipation sucks.

UFO!

Sunday, April 8th, 2007

“let me kiss your teeth…let me lick your eyes….let me choke your throat…let me spit on your face….”
ok…sure…uh huh…por que no? UFO! is at it again. He just got back from a vacation to New York and it seems as if the time off has rubbed him and his music in all the right [...]

Muscles

Saturday, April 7th, 2007

Omg. This is almost as exciting as the Daft Punk/Rapture tour. Muscles is touring with Soulwax on their upcoming North American tour. I know! Exciting. Too bad I have a prior engagement that I’ll never be able to wiggle out of on the only date near me — so you’ll have to tell me all [...]

Larry Tee + Princess Superstar + Herve

Friday, April 6th, 2007

There’s little doubt that Larry Tee could school the Nu Rave kids on a few things — one of them being on how to remain relevant once your faux genre implodes. Love him or hate him, Larry Tee has got his groove back with a track remixed by Herve that could spin off a few [...]

Ghostland Observatory

Friday, April 6th, 2007

I don’t know where i’ve been the last year, but somehow I managed to let Ghostland Observatory slip through the musical cracks of my life. This duo of front man Aaron Behrens and producer/drummer Thomas Turner is straight outta Austin, TX, but sound like they’re straight outta ‘where-have-they-been-all-my-life, USA.’ They’ve cranked out two albums [...]

Basement Jaxx

Friday, April 6th, 2007

I dont know how they did it, but somehow Basement Jaxx managed to tempt Roxanna Shante out of retirement to lay down the vocals for their new track, Make Me Sweat. And thank god they did b/c I think I’ve found my new anthem. I know you may have seen the song on a few [...]
