Once in a while I get something in my email that usually i would not look at twice, but given the mood I was in that day I payed attention a little more than usual. This is the kind of stuff you only hear once in a while that changes the complete mood you are [...]

It’s the summer of Modular. They have so much stuff going on these next few months that I just had to give you guys a heads up. They have FOUR releases coming out from some of our favs:
1. Bang Gang (Light, Sound Dance on 7/31)…i posted the teaser a while ago. if you [...]

Ssion – “ASAP” (YouTube)
Here Ssion’s new video for their track “ASAP.” Ssion’s album Fool’s Gold is one that we haven’t posted much about, but it has been a bit of a favorite this year… though I have to admit it’s not nearly as epic as their near classic Opportunity Bless My Soul.

Lots and lots of Fields remixes for you. Hopefully you’re already aware of Fields and all these remixers? If not they’re all some of the best. Hopefully this starts your Friday off right… dance, dance, dance for the weekend.

What the world needs is more remixes by CSS… I’m loving all their remix work that keeps coming out. I can’t say I’m too familiar with the original Cribs track, but this seems lighter than it should be… like something serious is going on but it doesn’t matter. Does that even make sense?

Bryan Cox and Ruff Club’s Denny Le Nimh bring us a rework of the Neu Rave anthem “Rave Dave” by Trash Fashion. Like the original, I’m not sure if it’s complimenting or making fun of the scene… but either way it works. Trash Fashion (and Bryan Cox and Denny Le Nimh) takes it to a [...]

We’ve posted Codebreaker and Miami Horror quite a few times before… (as you may or may not know Miami Horror is the production force behind Gameboy/Gamegirl). So… Codebreaker versus Miami Horror has us pretty excited over here at BIGSTEREO. I have to say, Miami Horror’s take on “Exiled” is a breath of fresh air… taking [...]

Dear everyone, please meet Ghosts on Tape. This guy is in a league of his own. He’s producing some crazy shit MINUS any type of computer OR vinyl. WHATT?!?!?! I guess his big bulky bag of tricks holds floppy disks, and a few samplers and sequencers. The only thing more prehistoric than that [...]

AHHHHHHH. Here’s your reward for making it through a long, hot summer day.
A-Trak turns up the heat on the Bumblebeez’ “Dr. Love” — creating a track that is very A-Trak-ish. Is that an adjective? I dunno. But there’s enough crazy influences on this mix that could only result from a combination of the Bumblebeez [...]

Catherine Ferroyer-Blanchard – “Chason d’amour” (YouTube)
Here’s a video for Catherine Ferroyer-Blanchard’s “Chason d’Amour.” Her new cassette tape is now scattered throughout stores in Paris… if you spot it make sure you pick up three copies. One for you, one for me and one to sell on ebay in six months. Just sayin…
There’s a bunch of [...]

Essential Logic was a post-punk band formed in 1978. The group was fronted & created by then 16 year old Lora Logic (real name Susan Whitby) who previously played saxophone in the X-Ray Spex. The Spex and Poly Styrene played a seminal part of the punk/new wave movement.
Essential Logic recorded & [...]

The Go! Team – “Grip Like A Vice” (YouTube)
Last we heard from Ninja she was teaming up with Simian Mobile Disco. “Grip Like A Vice” has been traveling around the interwebs for a few weeks now… finally took the minutes to sit down and listen/watch it. Oh man, if there is one album I am [...]

Diesel:U:Music competition has named its 30 finalist… out of 5000 submissions.
Happy to see a few BIGSTEREO favorites on there: Shakes, The Glamour, Toxic Avenger, Cool Kids… it made voting for just one a hard choice. But you can probably guess where my vote landed.
I’m not sure what the winners win… jeans? Whatever. Head over there [...]

Lil Mama, will we remember you in six months? I don’t know but your “Lip Gloss” is everywhere we turn these days. Summer jam of ‘07… and totally irresistible to every single bedroom producer.
Some favorite remixes…

The next Check Yo’ Ponytail is gonna be the summer jam… BIGSTEREO fav’s Ocelot will be making their LA debut. Also scheduled are Acid Girls, Young Americans and Pink Enemy.
Best part is it’s free before 10pm, and there’s gonna be fireworks and bbq! I love fireworks.
Here’s an Ocelot remix from like last year… that [...]

The boys from The Glass are at it again. We posted two of their remixes about a month ago and they’ve already cranked out two more…all the while preparing to jump on to a European tour next week. One song is from Photo Atlas and the other from Neurotic Drum Band. These little [...]

So BigStereo has two new things going on in San Francisco. One which is a collaboration and official BigStereo party where Sleazemore and I will be rocking the house and bringing you some great bands and DJ’s, you all know it and love it as Lights Down Low. We are bringing none other than Juiceboxxx [...]

Woah, got home from work today… fired up the ol’ feed reader and like fifty blogs I subscribe to had the VanShe Tech remix of Feist’s “1234″ posted. Almost embarrassing… if it wasn’t so damn good.
Some of the best:
Discobelle: “Van She remixes the beautiful Feist track “1234″³ that starts out rather quiet, then turns into [...]

Apparently Sportsday Megaphone’s remix of the Rumble Strips’ “Alarm Clock” was rejected because it wasn’t Kraftwerk enough. Not sure what the label was really expecting… had they listened to Sportsday Megaphone’s ep they might’ve been more ready for his signature diy dance pop that takes the track into a totally different direction than the original. [...]

Who would have ever thought Hilary Duff would land on BIGSTEREO?.. Gosh, we all love to hate her and hate to love her. Why is Hilary Duff such the guilty pleasure?? Unfortunately Baron von Luxxury’s remix didn’t quite make it through the selection process for her next single. Perhaps it’s not friendly enough for Radio [...]
