Feel The Noise

Friday, August 15th, 2008

So we haven’t posted as many mixes as before which I miss while I’m at work or I’m getting ready. I might have to jump on the bandwagon and become a DJ to create my own mixes. But in the meanwhile I got this mix from our good friends Gabe Vega and Saul Q (pronounced [...]

Ladyhawke

Ladyhawke - “Dusk Till Dawn” (YouTube)
All our favorite horror movies guest star in the new Keith Schofield directed video for Ladyhawke’s “Dusk Till Dawn.” Watch out for the Ghostface Killah cameo. Amusing, at the least.

Thieves Like Us

Thursday, August 14th, 2008

Thieves Like Us is back with a new EP called Your Heart Feels. The title track follows in the melodic dl pop vibe you have come to expect. The repetitiveness of their lyrics draws me in each time — there’s something mantra-ish about their songs even though their subject matter is rarely mantra-ish; or maybe [...]

Action Man aka Herve

Thursday, August 14th, 2008

Oh man Herve the man with million aliases is back as Action Man and a new EP. Teasing all us fanboys — as usual — is a three track sampler to get your palette all wet for the real thing. The sampler includes “Alarm Bell”, “Under Your Skin” and “Zombie Dance.” Look for it out [...]

Grand Popo Football Club

Grand Popo Football Club - “Territory” (YouTube)
The original version of Grand Popo Football Club’s “Territory” is rad. The video is radder. Joakim’s remix is even radder. I want to spend the last days of summer listening to this song/video/remix on repeat. And I need to run out and create some last minute summer memories to [...]

Canyons

Wednesday, August 13th, 2008

Had this post drafted for too long, but Travis just posted Canyons’ remix of Ladyhawke so now I have no excuse keeping it a draft. Melbourne’s duo of Canyons is making me sexually aroused. “Apples and Pears” by Canyons is a favourite tune of mine. I’ve been listening to it to death.
Here’s “Big City Lights” [...]

Like Woah!

Tuesday, August 12th, 2008

Sydney’s Like Woah! is back with their second release on Bang Gang 12 Inches. “RAW/WAR” follows in the same tradition as their now classic “Oh I Like” release with each track on the release being a total gem.

Like Woah! - “O.S.O.F.”
“RAW/WAR” is out on August 20th. Obviously, you don’t need me to tell you that [...]

Santogold

Tuesday, August 12th, 2008

New Santogold vid for “Lights Out” — Santi White directed by Whitey McConnaughy (who also did The Gossip’s “Listen Up”).
Are Santogold’s back up singers like Gwen Stefani’s Harajuku Girls? Does she take them shopping and do they do girl things together? Does she let them talk? They’re like, everywhere.

James Kane

Tuesday, August 12th, 2008

James Kane has been sending me music for a little while now. Being only 16, I think he might have a bit of future in this game. If you’re into the whole Valerie thing, you might take a bit of a liking to “Heartthrob.”

James Kane – “Hearththrob”

Database & Friends

Monday, August 11th, 2008

Database has been stringing me along with bits and hints on their re-edit EP for a couple months now. Along with Database’s own work, they invited a bunch of their friends to contribute to the EP including Bo$$ in Drama, The Twelves, Cello Zero, Midnight Martyn, Roots Rock Revolution and Fabrizio Martinelli. WELL today is [...]
