Output Recordings

Thursday, September 27th, 2007

Before New-Rave there was Output. Before Disco-Punk there was Output. Before Electroclash there was… Output. Groundbreaking, innovative, cutting edge — all understatements when decribing what Trevor Jackson accomplished with Output.
It’s been a year since Jackson called it quits, but it’s not all death and gloom. Output recently merged with MRC who will be handling [...]

The Glass

Thursday, September 27th, 2007

It’s a busy week for The Glass. Their EP ‘Couples Therapy’ came out on Sept 25 on Plant Music and they began their short US tour (including a stop in SF for Lovefest) before they take off overseas.
They bestowed on us a little present in the form ‘Fourteen Again’ remixed by one of my [...]

Best Fwends

Best Fwends - “Dream Off” (YouTube)
Oh man, Best Fwends are so whacky. I always think that they must be the byproduct of A.D.D. and boredom… like they ran out of ritalin and had nothing else to do but pick up microphones. If you’ve ever been to their hometown of Fort Worth, Texas then you [...]

Australia’s Like Woah! created a mini blog storm last year with their track “Oh I Like.” Now they’re back with “Oh I Like” on their first release with Bang Gang 12 Inches. Armed with the title track and remixes by Whitenoise and Knightlife… well, needless to say this release is a must have — [...]

Theatre of Disco

Monday, September 24th, 2007

Theater Of Disco is jumping on the radar. I have already heard some of you talk about this amazing band, that is sure to break grounds and do something that has definitely been anticipated in music lately. Their antics made into stage show, costumes, make up, and the refusal to become a stricly Electro band [...]

Mixtape Sunday VII

Monday, September 24th, 2007

I thought Clash the Disco Kids were kidding when their Myspace profile said they were from Singapore, but they’re for real. They may be halfway around the world from most of us, but that doesn’t mean they don’t know good music.

Clash The Disko Kids - You say Party! We Say Rave!
This guy sent me his [...]

A$BO KID

Thursday, September 20th, 2007

A$BO KID is here to steal your wallets! Formed by James Atkin(EMF[duh "Unbelievable" anyone?]) and Pilly Bob in 2005 they are bringing rave back and not in the form that New Rave has but in a way that really is getting the punks on the dancefloor with glow sticks and head bangery. The whole album [...]

Punks Jump Up "Dance to Our Disco"
YAY! Punks Jump Up and our lovely friends at Kitsune just released this video for ‘Dance To our Disco‘. It makes me reminisce about Max Headroom, Devo and all those other totally 80’s music videos that MTV used to play before they discovered reality shows. Can’t beat the [...]

Boys Noize

Wednesday, September 19th, 2007

Ok, I’ll admit it. For the longest, longest time I thought Boys Noize was a duo and was totally confused the first time I saw Alexander Ridha dj. Sooooo now that that is all sorted out — One thing we’re certain about is Boys Noize has put out some of the best remixes in recent [...]
