I have to admit that I’ve been kinda obsessed with Eleanor Jackson aka La Roux ever since her “Quicksand” first popped up on Kitsune. Well, well La Roux has another brilliant track up her sleeve: “Fascination.”
“Fascination” has an awkwardness that is both beautiful and brilliant… all packed into an irresistible melody. If “Quicksand” was channeling [...]

The Mezzanine here in San Francisco has given us the great opportunity to give tickets away for their shows tonight for Soulwax and for Saturday for Switch!!! Don’t miss this great opportunity to see a fucking amazing show at a great venue. This is the deal send me something stupid or funny whether a picture, [...]

Zombie Nation – “Forza”
Zombie Nation is back big time with “Forza” — check the single with remixes from Housmeister and Fukkk Offf.

Pharaoh (of Todosantos’ fame) sent out a new mixtape. There are some super fucking great tracks on this one… including his own remix of Ninjasonik. A must download to keep you up all night — or for at least the next fifty nine minutes:

Pharaoh – The Old The New [...]

Party Sausage = 1/2 of Partyshank; the party half (Christian Shank being the shank half). This blog post is reading like a mad man’s diary. Whatever.
If you’re familiar with Kids In Glass Houses then don’t dismiss this remix right away — it pretty much sounds like the original in a blender… which to my ears [...]

Last week, in New York during CMJ I caught up with The Whip to talk about their Official U.S. release of “X Marks Destination”, touring in America, sex, death and horror flix.
For those that are new to your music can you describe your music.
Danny – It’s electronic music, isn’t it?
Nathan – Electronic dance music played [...]

“Down In L.A.” is the lastest single from MUNK’s album Cloudbuster and has gotten the remix treatment from none other than Shazam. Video above, single on iTunes.

We Have Band – Oh! from We Have Band on Vimeo.
The video for We Have Band’s “Oh!” seems a little contrived, yeah. But whatevers. It doesn’t take away from the post-wave pop radness of the song itself. And all and all not a bad video for the band’s debut single — as long as you [...]

Cosmo Vitelli, one half of Bot’Ox and founder of Parisian label I’m A Cliché, is about to arrive in Australia for a stint of dates.
To celebrate he’s sent me over this eclectic mixtape full of current tracks, remixes and edits by some of my current favourites including Runaway and Pete Herbert, one half of LSB [...]

Ladyhawke – “My Delirium”
Certainly one of the better Ladyhawke videos, but it still kinda feel like they’re throwing singles like darts with the hawke hoping one hits a bulls eye — any bulls eye. I dunno. But like every other Ladyhawke single, the best part lies in the remixes — Toddla T & Ross Orton, [...]

Now that the Presets have won three Arias (the Australian version of the Grammy) we can assume they’re gonna go all mainstream on us — expect Gap ads. Ha! But for real. Modular’s resident djs — The Bang Gang — have put out their second disc for the label and have created an exclusive remix [...]

Australian pop act Sneaky Sound System has never been ones to shy away from a great remixer — always on the game for picking great producers who create great remixes. Their latest single, “When We Were Young” is no exception and getting Sinden, Juan Maclean, Shazam, Breakbot annnnnd G.L.O.V.E.S.! You know we’re bitches for anything [...]

Watch out. Matthew Dear and The Juan Maclean collide. The Juan Maclean have provided Matthew Dear with four remixes of “Pom Pom”, the latest and greatest single from the critically acclaimed Asa Breed. Yes four. I imagine Ghostly International played it smart and realized the DFA nerds wouldn’t be interested in anything but the Maclean [...]

First off. Keith is a band and not a man.
“Up In The Clouds” is the first track off their forthcoming album, Vice & Virtue. It has some straight up bass that when coupled with guitar sounds like the ground is gonna erupt below your feet. There’s something totally unnerving and raw and driving to [...]

Jimmy2Sox and J-Flex aren’t using the pseudonym “To Shades” anymore — I posted To Shades way back here. However, they are still making some cool remixes and originals. Here is their remix of Cat Empire’s off-shoot Jackson Jackson.

Jackson Jackson – “All Alone” (Jimmy2sox and J-flex remix)
Jimmy2Sox also made this [...]

This Friday, Oct 24th, Pete Tong presents “Insiders Music Series” Live At The Fillmore New York at Irving Plaza with a killer line up which includes Soulwax, 2manydjs, The Whip, James Lavelle and many more!!! Lucky for you our friends at Magnum PR have given up a pair of tickets for our loyal readers and [...]

Little Boots is making a huge splash this year’s CMJ — she’ll be playing live and dj-ing a ton of showcases and parties. Of course, I recommend catching her dj our party, but that still leaves quite a few opportunities to catch her perform live with the band…
“Mathematics” live :

Boots is also streaming [...]

Yo, we’re happy to announce our SECOND ANNUAL CMJ party (remember last year?) — this year teaming up with Famous Friends & Meanred to deliver the Bigstereo & Subdrive showcase. We’re helping kick off the first night of three amazing nights of craziness.
Best part is it’s totally FREE but you have to RSVP here. [...]

IHEARTCOMIX pointed us in the direction of the new Matt & Kim video for “Daylight.” I’m still convinced Matt & Kim are muppets… especially when they’re in the fridge and dumpster. And I’m also convinced that their popularity (or at least some of it) is owed to the fact that they’re always smiling. People like [...]

Nid & Sancy dropped a new track!! “Kidzz” is a guitar driven anthem with hints of distortion and fuzziness. It sounds like the party and the morning after all in one single song. And with lyrics simple enough to be taken up as a call of action, the track itself is begging for a dance [...]
