Teki Latex

May 21st, 2007

Teki Latex feat lio – “Les matins de Paris”
Teki, Teki we love you. One of the most anticipated albums of 2007, Party de Plaisir, drops June 4th — so psyched. Not holding my breath for a Stateside release… eh, will be saving up the pennies to buy it on import or download.

We Are Wolves

We Are Wolves

May 21st, 2007

Montreal’s We Are Wolves were not only my favorite wolf band of 2005, but they also released one of my favorite albums, Non-Stop Je Te Plie en Deux. Two years later and the Wolves are back with a new single… and later this year their sophmore album, Total Magique.
“Fight & Kiss” is the lead single [...]

Yo Majesty + Beth Ditto

May 20th, 2007

I’m way too tired to put up Mix Tape Sunday so let this hold ya over til next week…
Beth Ditto interviewed Yo Majesty for XLR8R a few weeks back. Can’t make this shit up… who can’t wait for the Yo Majesty/Beth Ditto collaboration? First person who sends it to me when it’s complete wins.

Dragonette + Midnight Juggernauts

Dragonette + Midnight Juggernauts

May 20th, 2007

i am OBSESSED with this song. This collaboration is by two of my recent favs Dragonette and Midnight Juggernauts, that is long overdue. It’s a match made in heaven like mixing peanut butter and chocolate, fake boobs and blonde hair, vodka and tonic, or S&M. This song is featured on the upcoming Kitsune comp, and [...]

Bitchee Bitchee Ya Ya Ya

May 19th, 2007

Bitchee Bitchee Ya Ya Ya seem to have appeared out of thin air… and for being around for such a short of amount of time they seem to be very well connected. There’s a certain amount of mystery surrounding them — no photos, no bio. I exchanged a few emails with Bitchee to try and [...]

Herve vs Yo Majesty vs Larry Tee vs Princess Superstar vs Scattermish

May 18th, 2007

Yo Majesty remixes are all over the place… thanks in part to It’s The Money Shot. I mentioned Scattermish’s edit in passing last Sunday… and it was posted on Scattermish’s blog a little while back. But it is totally worth another mention and post.
Scattermish pushes Yo Majesty’s vocal track of “Club Action” up against [...]

Codebreaker

Codebreaker

May 17th, 2007

Ah, shit. The new Codebreaker album has been sitting here on my desk for way, way too long. We posted a sneak back in July Oh Six, but somehow the album has slipped by us. No excuses.
Anyway.
I don’t pay album art much attention since my listening habits are a hundred percent digital these days, but… [...]

Muscles + Christopher Robin

Muscles + Christopher Robin

May 16th, 2007

Bang Gang 12 Inches released the new Muscles 12″ this week of “One Inch Badge” with remixes by Bagraiders and Vanshe Tech. They also released the vocal track… which means every bedroom dj and his brother is gonna be messing around with this song. Relax, this is a good thing: (a) it’s going to be [...]

Dgenetics Musics

Dgenetics Musics

May 16th, 2007

 
Since we can’t let the Ed Bangers and Modulars take over the music world (as much as we’re loving it) we have to scoot over and make some room for the new guys, Dgenetics Musics.  This little label was started earlier this year by a group of four artists/producers who want to make shit happen. The family [...]

Frase+Bri

May 15th, 2007

Ohmy… Frase+Bri is a duo from New Zealand creating some intense rave-pop tracks that remind me of a cross between Muscles and Freezepop. Their music is falling apart and coming together… all at once.
You’re gonna be finding yourself wanting to take all your clothes off and dance around in your living room in your [...]

NWT: Zom Zom

May 15th, 2007

Zom Zoms are a Texas based New Wave act armed with a synthesizer & some more synthesizers. Their library of songs are quirky & bizarre, often times teetering on ridiculous. Like Yip-Yip whom they often tour with, they were banned from Canda for a whole year. Think Devo and you’re pretty much spot on. [...]

7 Day Weekend

7 Day Weekend

May 15th, 2007

7 Day Weekend is a trio out of Perth, Australia that is creating dancey little diy rap songs. Judging from the sampling of tracks that I’ve heard they’re a bit formulaic but regardless totally enjoyable. Ok, what I’m trying to say is art school rap has become a genre of its own, and I love [...]

The Glamour

The Glamour

May 14th, 2007

One of our current favs, The Glamour, sent over their brand new track for us all to enjoy. They’re rapidly starting to build quite the catalog. “Get Into It” is a nice little jam… a bit funkier than some of their previous tracks. It kinda reminds me of Les Rythmes Digitales’ during his Darkdancer era [...]

Ohmygoodness. So many mixes… so little time.
1) First up: Bald Eagle out of Chicago sent in the this one — Midwest taking over. He starts out with his very own Spektrum vs. Hollwood Holt edit. Hot. Notice the Spektrum vibe running through most of these mixes this week. Love it.

Digitalism

May 11th, 2007

It’s just gonna be one of those Kitsuné weeks. No complaints here. Digitalism’s video for “Pogo” makes me dizzy… such great effects for such a great track. And I want those gold shoes.

The Glass

The Glass

May 11th, 2007

I’ve been intrigued by The Glass ever since I heard my friend spin their part of the “Sound of Young New York” vinyl at a house party years ago. They just put the finishing touches on remixes for Shitake Monkey and Vice records’ 120 Days. And while looking over at their myspace I got a bit dizzy looking [...]

Kitsuné Maison 4

May 10th, 2007

You’re no stranger to Kitsuné Maison series… already on it’s fourth installment it’s a catalogue of the best of the best of the best. Dazed Digital sent along their mix of the compilation… certainly more exciting than the mix used for Kitsuné Maison 3 since it gives you a little flavor for all the tracks.
