Golden Bug

October 19th, 2007

Golden Bug is back with some new tracks off of his forthcoming EP (on Silicon Square Records) and a little disco flair. I’ve been a growing fan of Golden Bug ever since we began to post on him here and here. His tracks are slowly becoming more methodical, refined and a bit less quirky. I [...]

Guns ‘N Bombs

October 17th, 2007

Pretty much all i have to say is ‘hilarious.’ Jeppe Laursen of Junior Senior (he’s Senior) directed the video for the Guns N Bombs single ‘Nothing is Getting Us Anywhere.’ He took a few minutes of mundane footage of Johnny and Filip hanging out in the park, and brilliantly edited it into something that made [...]

New Young Pony Club

October 16th, 2007

Now that New Young Pony Club has totally blown up and is like Pitchfork’s darlings, we can just sit back and add them to the list of “we told you so-s.” Here’s their fabulous video for “Get Lucky” — the kids win.

Scanners

Scanners

October 15th, 2007

I’m usually a pretty tough critic on remixes of the Scanners. They’re one band I don’t want to hear people fucking with. But Blamma! Blamma! just dropped this remix, and it’s kinda exciting. Ok, it doesn’t do much for me until the vocals kick in… but then it takes off and mixed with the vocoder [...]

Blake Miller is Ruthless

Blake Miller is Ruthless

October 14th, 2007

Sure, Moving Units may be mobilizing on tour to promote their new album, but somehow Blake Miller has found the time to start his own endeavors. I guess now it’s the norm for most djs to create their own edits so their sets don’t sound identical and thank goodness b/c I tend to get tired [...]

Thieves Like Us

October 12th, 2007

Kitsune Records and Thieves Like Us are proud to announce the official ‘Drugs In My Body’ remix contest! Since everyone can be a producer in their bedroom (and most people these days seem to be), Kitsune is on the right track looking for submissions from the undiscovered ‘next big thing.’ The winner will have the [...]

Dgenetics

October 12th, 2007

FINALLY! I’ve been waiting for quite a while for Dgenerate Nation to finish this video for ‘Skate with Me‘ and it’s finally here…like an overdue baby. Before I saw it, I envisioned a video like the Rapture’s ‘Get Myself Into It‘ with disco lights and roller rinks. But this is just a day in the [...]

Cut Copy

October 11th, 2007

Lucky for us because the wait isn’t too much longer annnnnd they’re releasing “So Haunted” as an Austrlian single to hype up their upcoming tour there. If this the vibe of In Ghost [...]

Kylie

October 10th, 2007

Ah… Kylie Minogue is my ultimate guilty pleasure. And obviously, there’s no one better to school Britney on how to do a come back performance. In her new video for “2 Hearts”, Kylie channels equal parts Goldfrapp, David Bowie and Marilyn Monroe… and omg: look at that skull microphone. Whoever did the art direction for [...]

Kasper Bjørke

October 10th, 2007

Oh how I love referrals. I was tipped off to Kasper Bjørke a little bit ago when Dominique from The Glass rolled through San Francisco for Lovefest. He promised to hook me up with all kinds of good music and this was nestled into what he gave me. Kasper is part of the Plant Music [...]

Chromeo

October 9th, 2007

Chromeo – “Bonafide Lovin’ (YouTube via Good Soul Department) Chromeo’s new video for “Bonafide Lovin’” is a nice nod to Dire Straights — right down to the dog. Although it’s probably pretty easy to guess which we prefer. Oh and here’s that Sinden remix of “Tenderoni” that has been featured on just about every single [...]

Black Kids

Black Kids

October 8th, 2007

Black Kids has been getting a lot of early Internet support and buzz — the latest fuel from a very positive Pitchfork review of their free Myspace demo ep. And it’s no surprise. They’re so f’ing easy to love… they hit a timeless Go Team-esque sound that hits every range of emotion. Black Kids found [...]

Envelopes + Sportsday Megaphone

Envelopes + Sportsday Megaphone

October 8th, 2007

Sportsday Megaphone has quickly become a BIGSTEREO favorite. His latest remix is for Envelopes new track, “PARTY” — which hopefully means a new album isn’t too far away. Sportsday Megaphone takes “PARTY” from guitar pop to distorted disco madness. I been loving everything Hugh Frost (aka Sportsday Megaphone) has put out and this is no [...]

Time for another round of guest bloggers. This time, we’re lucky enough to have the Bloody Beetroots sharing some of their Italian insider tips with us. They felt like Congorock fit the bill, so take it away guys…. One thing we really appreciate is people with inclination to work, no matter what’s on the plate, [...]

In Flagranti

October 4th, 2007

:::::::::::::::::::: See those. Those are my literary equivalent of goosebumps. Ever since I heard In Flagranti’s full-length ‘Wronger Than Anyone Else‘ I’ve been a die-hard fan. Perhaps they gained my musical loyalty with their disco/funk/italo influences, or perhaps it’s because they make f’ing awesome music. They have an EP coming out October 18th on Speak [...]

Big Face

Big Face

October 3rd, 2007

Big Face is set to release “Style Crusader” on Kitsuné on November 1st — more on that later. But there are a couple of demos up on the Big Face’s MySpace that are worth checking out. Like “Style Crusader”, these tracks are a bit formulaic in that they start out slow and almost atmospheric but [...]

Toxic Avenger + Franki Chan + Fredzefred

October 2nd, 2007

You already know Toxic Avenger for their epic “Superheroes” and the trillion, billion, gazillion remixes they’ve done over the past year or so… but IHEARTCOMIX just dropped their must have, much anticipated debut twelve inch. ANNNNND to celebrate the boys, along with Franki Chan, are headed across the country dropping into as many cities as [...]
