South Central

South Central

September 16th, 2008

In the past year, we’ve posted South Central once or twice. Well revoke my fanboy card because the one thing I didn’t know is the band is gearing up for their album release of The Owl Of Minerva. “Aeon” is an interesting track because it’s not the straight forward hard electro banger that you might [...]

HEARTSREVOLUTION

September 15th, 2008

IHEARTCOMIX is releasing HEARTSREVOLUTION’s Switchblade EP on October 21st. If you happened to catch the EP on ISOMORPHS then you’ll be happy to know that the new EP has a slightly different tracklisting with a couple new tracks you haven’t yet heard. Most noticeably though, while the ISOMORPHS release had a few ethereal moments, IHEARTCOMIX’s [...]

Sisters of Transistors + Acid Girls

Sisters of Transistors + Acid Girls

September 15th, 2008

The Sisters of Transistors is the new project of Graham Massey of 808 State fame. The band is “an all girl organ quartet specialising in Baroque Disco Prog and Party Horror Soundtracks.” If that doesn’t pique your interest then I dunno what will… maybe an Acid Girls remix? Acid Girls play off the disco of [...]

We Have Band

We Have Band

September 14th, 2008

We Have Band has been sitting in my draft folder for a while now… but then I saw they had a track on Kitsune Maison 6 (SIX!), and I was like “I better get my lazy ass in gear.” We’ve heard We Have Band before — a million times before and in a million different [...]

Charlie ASH

Charlie ASH

September 13th, 2008

Charlie ASH may not be well known off their island of New Zealand yet, but they certainly wear enough gold lamé to be the next hipster band of the month on an international level. Both these remixes are filling a synthier-rock void that has been missing in my diet lately. And both kinda remind me [...]

Twist Oliver, Twist

Twist Oliver, Twist

September 13th, 2008

I could of posted every song off Twist Oliver, Twist’s Ebb and Flow EP. The four piece from Brisbane, Australia are seriously doing good things. I recommend going to their Myspace and listening to the rest of their EP. Do it. [Audio clip: view full post to listen] Twist Oliver, Twist – “Mediocrity Rules” [Audio [...]

Kilowatt

Kilowatt

September 12th, 2008

Kilowatt is the new project of dj Micprobes. You miiiiight remember his last project Paris. Or you might not. Doesn’t matter. What does matter is that Kilowatt’s first remix is of the near classic “Crimewave.” Hard to destroy this one. I want to hear this loud: [Audio clip: view full post to listen] Crystal Castles [...]

Database + Bonde do Role

Database + Bonde do Role

September 11th, 2008

The Database boys are back with a collaboration with Brazilian country-mate’s Bonde do Role… Miami is the subject. Parallel to last year’s Bonde do Role song “Miami Beach” perhaps, but this “Miami” is mostly Database. The duo has pushed and pulled a hook into a full on electro-disco track. [Audio clip: view full post to [...]

Fabian

Fabian

September 11th, 2008

Fabian, part of the Binary collective, has a couple tracks to mention… both “J4W” and “Alpha” probably work well with not only the bloghouse, Justice fanboy, emerging alt crowd, but also maybe the older, balding tech head crowd as well. I think that’s a compliment to Fabian though you could run with it in the [...]

Salem

September 10th, 2008

This is the creepiest video ever. The video is shot and directed by Salem with music by Salem. Probably NSFW: WORDS: A few copies of Salem’s EP from Acephale are left at Rough Trade or Puregroove. Don’t wait. Already have it? Need to consume more? Look at Merok for their next EP to be released [...]

Holy Hail

Holy Hail

September 9th, 2008

Holy Hail is gearing up for the release of their Independent Pleasure Club which comes out on Kanine Records this November 11th. This remix of “Samo Son” lays out a late night jam with a singy songy rap — something we’ve come to expect from this post-post-disco-punk band. Dunno know about you but I imagine [...]

The Death Set + Treasure Fingers

September 3rd, 2008

Bang Gang 12 Inches always, always delivers. This time with their BEST release yet — from TheDeathSet!! I don’t know if anyone else is literally jumping up and down about this release, but I am. For real. Which makes it hard to type. Anyone who has caught this band live knows that they put on [...]

Elke

Elke

September 3rd, 2008

Elke came out of nowhere. If you’re going to like a new band, like Elke. There’s so much quality in “Till I’m Gone” and “The Melt” it isn’t even funny. Fall in love with this 4 piece from Gold Coast, Australia before everyone else does. [Audio clip: view full post to listen] Elke – “The [...]

Punks Jump Up

September 3rd, 2008

After listening to the Punks Jump Up remixes of “Breaking it Up” and “Carny”, I had to re-educate myself through my iTunes library. I forgot how much I love these dudes and their remixes… and then I had to go re-download their “Dance to our Disco” release from Kitsune that I lost during the great [...]
