Kap10Kurt presents….

November 30th, 2007

Kap10Kurt took time out of their busy tour schedule and were generous enough to share a few of their favorite songs at the moment for this guest blog…..
Tobiah is an 8-bit/gameboy influenced beat-smith, melody-maker, and producer from Sweden. I first heard this song on the micromusic website and was blown away [...]

RFH Delfos/Gillette

November 29th, 2007

So I know you guys have heard me play this song before, well the original, well now I have a new favorite. If you guys haven’t listened to some Gillette then you really don’t know what’s up. Travis and I have been obsessed with her since the beginning of BigStereo.
Rogier Delfos has been a [...]

Classixx

Classixx

November 29th, 2007

Classixx or formerly known as Young Americans. How cool is that? To be formerly known like Prince? As you may or may not have heard these guys were rocking the Young American’s name until they got a court order to remove the name right at our night Light’s Down Low, and right in front of [...]

Villains recently hit the scene full force with jams like “Rock It” and “Thrilla”, both find their way into my sets every single time. [...]

Digital Primate

Digital Primate

November 28th, 2007

Unlike a lot of his contemporaries, Digital Primate has something to say. It’s refreshing. In the land ravey drivel, Digital Primate’s Siege Mentality stands out. And hell, there’s still lots of dance floor potential here with hints of grime and techno and reggae.
“I Ain’t Wid It” could be schooling Beyonce on “Bootylicious” — like, hey [...]

Big Face

Big Face

November 27th, 2007

We’ve been digging Big Face on Bigstereo for a little while (check those demos out if you haven’t already) — but their “I Wanna Be A Style Crusader” was recently released on Kitsuné so it’s time for another nod. I think I can safely say this one easily rests in my top 5 this year. [...]

Bloody Beetroots

Bloody Beetroots

November 27th, 2007

Wow, the Bloody Beetroots made a sharp left turn from Italy into Paris. This new track sounds dark and menacing like a very familiar two-man team starting with a ‘J’ (maybe its the violins). It’s missing the previous cartoonish influences their last few tracks we posted here and on their guest post, and I [...]

The Glamour

The Glamour

November 26th, 2007

The Glamour is back with two new tracks — “Fly By Night” and “Feet 2 the Floor” — both tracks are probably their most solid efforts since “Kidz Night.” Oh man, if you’ve been paying attention then you almost have an album’s worth of Glamour songs which is exciting. No driving your mom nuts with [...]

Kylie + The Twelves

Kylie + The Twelves

November 24th, 2007

The Twelves take “2 Hearts” back to Kylie Minogue’s more disco-y times — this remix sounds like it could’ve almost come out of the Fever era by ditching her glam band persona for something a little more conventional. I love The Twelves but miss the piano and the stomper potential of the original. I’m not [...]

Heads We Dance

Heads We Dance

November 23rd, 2007

Heads We Dance have released a double remix single starring Tepr and Frankmusik. Tepr captures the eighties Joy Division-esque sound of the original track, but gives it a Tepr style face lift. His French rave sound pushed up against the retro-80’s sound is kinda refreshing… but the end result is not as massive as some [...]

Blamma Blamma

November 22nd, 2007

All us gluttonous Americans are spending the day indulging ourselves in turkey and pumpkin pie pondering what we have to be thankful for. Well, I’m thankful for sweet potatoes and thankful I got sent this remix of a Rival Joustas track by Blamma! Blamma! today to bring me out of my tryptophan-induced food coma. [...]

Partyshank

Partyshank

November 21st, 2007

I know Travis just posted about Partyshank(So Sweet Records), and i know it’s not time for Mixtape Sunday yet, but I thought perhaps those were two perfectly good reasons to post this mixtape from Christian Shank (the ’shank’ half of Partyshank). Hey, if Justice is playing these guys’ music, I wanna know what THESE guys [...]

Krazy Fiesta

Krazy Fiesta

November 20th, 2007

I’ve never been the biggest advocate of mashups or smashups or whatevers. I think I even used to sing that Bone Crusher hook as a joke in conversations from time to time. Krazy Fiesta has somehow managed to incorporate it into their song without me shutting it off after the first ten seconds. [...]

Partyshank

Partyshank

November 18th, 2007

The Lies In Disguise remix of Partyshank was heavily blogged a couple weeks ago — posted here and everywhere else. It was the banger of the day, hyperboles and all.
Well, well — Partyshank sent over another remix of “Penis vs. Vagina.” This time it is Shanks own reworking that is basically the sum of [...]

LA Riots

LA Riots

November 15th, 2007

Wells hells, LA Riots is blowing up right before your eyes. Six months ago they were dropping their first remix and now they’ve been asked by Kylie Minogue’s camp to remix “Boombox.” Lucky for us nerds, the boys uploaded this clip of the remix to their MySpace — pretty useless to all you DJs and [...]

Peaches + Tone Loc

November 15th, 2007

Peaches recently performed her remix of Tone Loc’s “Wild Thing” at URB’s 150th issue party with the man himself. How hot is that glittery hoody-unitard thing. Everybody needs one of those. Delicious Vinyl is releasing the track, and it’ll be part of a 3x vinyl full length released sometime next year… along with a bunch [...]

Digitalism

Digitalism

November 15th, 2007

I caught up with Jence and Isi (on his actual birthday) of Digitalism for a quick rundown before their SF show. It’s two days before the end of the US tour, and yet they still greet me with warm smiles and their full attention. I knew I loved them for a good reason….
how did [...]

Mono4

Mono4

November 14th, 2007

I’ve been on a bit of a Brazil kick as of late — and continuing with that is São Paulo trio Mono4. “Source” starts out sounding like a hundred other diy electro-pop tracks, but right around the one and half minute mark the song totally takes off and is almost epic. Sure, it’s under-produced and [...]

Johnny Love introduces Monologic

November 14th, 2007

This time around Johnny Love from Guns N Bombs took some time out of shopping for neon reeboks and trying to grow facial hair to write a guest blog for us about his new favorite song….
“I met Monologic, or rather, 2 of the members of monologic way back in the rave days, way before i [...]
