Bitchee Bitchee Ya Ya Ya

Wednesday, April 30th, 2008

Bitchee Bitchee and Ya Ya Ya have been busy working on their debut album, and they were kind enough to drop us a little teaser from it. “Love Beauty #1″ isn’t as distortion heavy as “Fuck Friend” — it’s more like its distant surf influenced cousin. I imagine a big dance number to this one [...]

Purple Crush

Purple Crush - “Shopping on the Dance Floor” (YouTube)
“Shopping” was heard on Purple Crush’s “Welcome 2 Emo-Club” ep last year… well now the track has gotten the video and remix treatment from AC Slater, Mike Genius, Krames and Shir Khan. Rad. This song is so easy to like… such a sing a long and easy [...]

Golden Bug

Tuesday, April 29th, 2008

Golden Bug has been posted on BIGSTEREO quite a few times now, but “Rocket City” is such a fun track that I can’t resist once more. The song offers up a wonderful dose of hidden disco — mixed with some layered synths and bits of French distortion that’ll get everyone moving across the floor. I [...]

Lismore

Monday, April 28th, 2008

Lismore is heading off for a West Coast tour and in celebration have dropped a new track — “More”!! Keeping in Lismore tradition the song is pure pop drenched in synth that’ll have you shaking and dancing. “More” puts Lismore at the top of their game… and uh, leaves up wanting more. Luckily there [...]

Mono4

Monday, April 28th, 2008

Ok, I kinda want to be selfish and NOT post Mono4 because I want them to be “my little secret”… but what would be the point if I couldn’t share my love with the world? We posted them a few months back, and they have definitely remained a favorite since then — but if yr [...]

LAST CHECK YO PONYTAIL EVER!!!

Sunday, April 27th, 2008

In case you missed it, IHEARTCOMIX’s laaaaasssst Check Yo Ponytail is Tuesday. This is it, and they’re going out with a bang. The cat is finally outta the bag… the secret guests are Erol Alkan and Dan Deacon!!! PLUS last minute guests Le Castle Vania and Hollywood Holt. PLUS Totally Michael, Acid Girls, Wallpaper and [...]

Wombats + South Central

Sunday, April 27th, 2008

South Central just gave us their remix for the Wombats to premiere — I fucking love the break in “Backfire at the Disco.” It totally comes out of nowhere inserting a dose of the original before it jumps back to electro rave. Ha. The track struggles with its sound throughout (in a good way) but [...]

K.I.M. + Tomboy

Sunday, April 27th, 2008

KIM is one talented cat. The producer/drummer/programmer and one half of The Presets has been getting remixed of late. Tomboy’s take is my favourite. Modular Records is set to release a series of limited edition KIM 12″s in the coming months. Definately worth a purchase.

K.I.M. - “Party Machini” (Tomboy remix) (mp3)

Midnight Juggernauts + Knightlife

Thursday, April 24th, 2008

Dystopia is old news to most of us by now — but Midnight Juggernauts is finally hitting shelves outside of Australia which means you won’t be alone in your love for long. You probably know this album and remix inside and out, and there’s not a damn thing that we can say about Dystopia that [...]

Van She

Wednesday, April 23rd, 2008

Is Van She the new Bravery? Not only will they be going on tour together in June, but Van She’s new video looks like a page out of Sam Endicott’s playbook. The clip could be better but “Strangers” as a song is pretty damn likeable. Look for it with remixes by Yuksek, Strip Steve and [...]

Panther DLX

Wednesday, April 23rd, 2008

I really like Panthers. They’re cool animals. As seen by the picture Panther dlx are pretty cool too. I’ve seen Panther dlx play live several times now, and the kids seem to dig it. They have such a seasoned on stage presence for a band who has only played a handful of shows.

Panther DLX [...]

HEARTSREVOLUTION + LA Riots

Tuesday, April 22nd, 2008

Ah, listening to this remix I couldn’t help but think of simpler times when all you had to do was throw on some hot pants and call yourself Electroclash to be cool. Nowadays you need to be from LA, remixed by someone from LA, or… in this case, both. It’s all so complicated. Anyway, another [...]
