Charlie Why!

Tuesday, April 15th, 2008

Seventeen year old Charlie Why! should probably be hanging out at a chocolate factory with Willy Wonka. But instead he is mucking around on Logic 8 making experimental tunes which remind me of Jackson and His Computer Band (all hail jackson). I spoke with Charlie the other night and he reckons he has some more [...]

Jeppe

Tuesday, April 15th, 2008

JEPPE!! Jeppe from Junior Senior is working on a solo album that sounds very, very promising. His first song is a cover of Fine Young Cannibals “Johnny Come Home” and was recorded with Filip from Guns’N’Bombs and Thomas Troeslen from Private (and a million other projects). Funny enough Filip used to play bass in Junior [...]

Bumblebeez + DJ Mehdi + Busy P

Monday, April 14th, 2008

Is the Bumblebeez’s Prince Umberto & the Sister of Ill ever gonna come out in America?? God only knows. But this “Ed Records Allstars” remix of “Pump Up The Bass” by DJ Mehdi & Busy P just landed in our inbox so I guess we have something to hold us over a bit. Dirrrty:

Bumblebeez - [...]

Cloetta Paris

Monday, April 14th, 2008

Last year we introduced you to the Sally Shapiro-esque Cloetta Paris — we were all hot for their similar icy, italo-disco style. Well the duo is back and with a full length release on Skywriting Records. The record comes out on 4/22, and you can pre-order it through their website — for only $10 which [...]

BMX

Monday, April 14th, 2008

Ethics? Blogs don’t care about ethics! But I want to be straight up because you know Jad from BMX is writing on this site. That said… I’d be posting this song even if Jad and I were worst enemies or wrote for Missing Toof (nothing against them because I love them) or something because it [...]

Services

Sunday, April 13th, 2008

Services are back and ready to destroy your ear drums. Here is the video to their new single “Presenter”, it’s a heavy dance punk track the way only Services can. This video makes me want to get dirty.

Protokoll + Designer Drugs

Sunday, April 13th, 2008

We’ve been so all over Designer Drugs it is not even funny. We’re addicted. Every remix is better than the last. They recently hooked up with IHEARTSCOMIX and did a remix for Protokoll which was found on Franki Chan’s Scion Mix Tape thing that everybody is kinda nuts for.

Protokoll - “Moving Forward” (Designer Drugs Remix) [...]

Twinpitch

Saturday, April 12th, 2008

The photo doesn’t really have any relevance to this post except the fact that when I google imaged “twinpitch” it was the first result. Baseball isn’t big in Australia, and I had no idea what the image was of.
Anyway back to the music. This song isn’t new. It was released in 2005. I’m not [...]

Alphabeat + FrankMusik + Leon Jean-Marie

Friday, April 11th, 2008

Alphabeat, FrankMusik and Leon Jean-Marie recently did a cover of “Digital Love” — obviously the song itself doesn’t need an introduction. Daft Punk is pretty sacred but we’re such suckers for covers. The kids end up turning the track into the ultimate POP jam that has warm weather and first loves written all over it.

Alphabeat, [...]

Ssion

Ssion - “Day Job” (YouTube)
Ssion puts out videos like some bands bang groupies — often. Which is good because two things I like are Ssion and videos. Oh man, “Day Job” is a sentiment we can all relate to at one point in our life. Oh and. I love “Day Job” because it reminds me [...]
