Van She

November 13th, 2007

Van She – “Cat & The Eye” (You Tube)
WHO SAW THIS COMING?? We’ve been waiting on the edge of our seats for new Van She — and here it is. I’m trying to tame the inner fanboy, but this is near perfect. “Cat & The Eye” is still catchy as “Kelly” but edgier as some [...]

Todosantos + Leif

Todosantos + Leif

November 11th, 2007

Leif has worked his magic on Todosantos. Get Weird Turn Pro sums up this track perfectly —
Well here’s some more ‘Tukky Bass’ from the Venezuelan Day-Glo New Yorkers in the shape of a remix by LEIF, who throws Old School Rave, Acid House, Big Beat, Bmore, Ghetto Tech and of course Tukky Bass (?) [...]

Contest: IHEARTCOMIX

November 11th, 2007

As you may have heard by now, our friends over at IHEARTCOMIX are having remix contests for two of their future releases. If you win you’ll be released alongside some pretty big name producers (ok, pretty big name for us anyway)… which is pretty exciting, especially for all you bedroom producers who never leave the [...]

For all you non-disco heads out there, Fabric in London just released another ace compilation curated by none other that Pat Mahoney and James Murphy. Consider the tracklisting your musical education…We enlisted the help of our friend Sidra Durst to help interviewing the ‘big guns’. Sidra, take it away…

Foals

November 8th, 2007

Foals – “Balloons” (YouTube)
Here is a kinda crappy quality YouTube rip of the Foals new video for “Balloons” (let me know if you find better)… but you get the idea. Overall not my favorite from them — it’s missing the intensity of “Mathletics” and the raw danceyness of “Hummer”, but it’s still great on its [...]

Kap10kurt + Rolf Honey

Kap10kurt + Rolf Honey

November 6th, 2007

Ok don’t hate, but I was about to totally dismiss the remix of Kap10kurt’s “Dangerseekers” by Rolf Honey (Yuksek) — that is until after the first minute… and then I heard where it was going and it all came together and I realized how perfect and brilliant it is. This could be about fifty [...]

The Teenagers

November 4th, 2007

The Teenagers – “Starlett Johansson” (YouTube)
The Teenagers are back with their second video… for their second single, “Starlett Johannson.” Directed by Price James (Shit Disco, Simian Mobile Disco), the visuals are perfectly understated and perfectly matched. Actually, it’s quite clever with The Teenagers’ film images projected onto the faux-Scarlett which echoes the consuming, compulsive lyrics. [...]

Holy Hail

November 1st, 2007

Holy Hail – “Cool Town Rock” (YouTube)
We’ve been loving Holy Hail for a little over a year now — the band is set to release a new single November 26th, “Cool Town Rock”, and I have to say it’s my favorite yet. We’ve seen this type of video a million times before so nothing too [...]
