Holy Ghost + Jacques Renault

April 16th, 2009

Holy Ghost and Jacques Renault just graced us with their presence at Infatuation, and they put on one hell of a disco bash. People were really feeling it and dancing on tables and taking clothes off. It was intense. Disco is really close to my heart and here is their mix for the night: [podcast]http://this.bigstereo.net/wp-content/uploads/infatuation/infatuation_podcast_06_holy_ghost_and_jacques_renault.mp3[/podcast] [...]

This track is a remix of a track on their new record ‘Entertainment’ which is highly anticipated. D.I.M. doesn’t seem to ever [...]

Little Boots + Gold Panda

Little Boots + Gold Panda

April 16th, 2009

Ah, Little Boots all grown up. And Gold Panda remixes “Every Little Earthquake.” Not quite as bombastic as the original… Gold Panda tones it down in what has become his understated but quality production style. Perhaps not as punchy, but the d.i.y. intellect of the remix is a gain. [Audio clip: view full post to [...]

Alec Empire

April 15th, 2009

Alec Empire is back. This time with a new EP called ‘Shivers’. On this EP he works with his hot co-ed Nic Endo and The Big Pink. A little different in style than his general works, this EP stands out as new and refreshing. Always moody, always dark, and always noisy his tracks deliver angst [...]

X-Wife

April 15th, 2009

I posted X-Wife member Rui Maia’s solo music recently, and now I have some music from the band. I read somewhere that Soulwax called X-wife the most underrated band in the world. It may of been a rumour or a twisted tale but either way X-Wife are good. [Audio clip: view full post to listen] [...]

Fare Soldi

April 14th, 2009

My Favorite Italian club kids Fare Soldi just sent me an awesome mix they did called “Dancing with the Monster”. It’s a mix of everything and anything, it includes the kitchen sink. It’s a great little mix for fans of…well music. I love it and I’ve been using it to get ready to go out. [...]

Flashmen

Flashmen

April 13th, 2009

Daniel E and our good friend over at Famous Friends, Bradley D, make up the newest dreamwave act on the scene — Flashmen (not Fleshmen, that’s a different story). The “Theme” is some spaced out layered synth disco that is like the welcome of a warm spring day as the flowers bloom and the leaves [...]

Wave Machines

Wave Machines

April 12th, 2009

Wave Machines’ “Keep The Lights On” is the perfect track for right this second. Lofi nu-disco that sounds pulled straight from midnight radio to your headphones. This track could be the love child of Hot Chip and Hail Social, but it’s done better. Love totes. Guarantee you’ll be playing it on repeat until your sick [...]

Fromage Disco

Fromage Disco

April 11th, 2009

I’m getting sick of the term ‘nu disco’ but nevertheless there is a definite scene emerging here in Australia and across the world. Not sure who is to thank — if it is James Murphy and Pat Mahoney’s Fabric live 36, Tim Sweeneys Beats in Space, or Noel Fielding re-finding the “funk”. Either way there [...]

Peaches – “Talk To Me” Peaches is back full force! It’s Peaches so you gotta love her or hate her — there’s no ambivalence. “Talk To Me” is the first single off I Feel Cream. The video is directed by Price James and involves hair. Hair, of course. When I think of Peaches I always [...]

Circlesquare + Russ Chimes + Anoraak

Circlesquare + Russ Chimes + Anoraak

April 10th, 2009

Russ Chimes and Anoraak have taken on Circlesquare’s “Dancers” and turned it into singature dreamwave. The juxtaposition of Jeremy Shaw’s dark wave-ish vocals against Russ Chimes and Anoraak’s sweeping and layered synths may take some time getting used to though. It’s certainly not typical of the genre, but it is a welcoming remix and a [...]

Johnny Love of Guns N’ Bombs is quite a legend in our scene. He sent in a live mix he recorded while playing in Italy. A bit times agro a bit times danceaholic this mix only interprets the way the scene is going, in every direction. [Audio clip: view full post to listen] Johnny Love- [...]

Pete Randy

Pete Randy

April 9th, 2009

Pete Randy is the ex-lead singer/guitarist for Belgium band Dandy Boy which, I guess, reached moderate success in its home country. He’s since started doing the solo thing, and it’s a good direction. Pete Randy’s songs are super saturated and colorful, but at the same time posses a certain sensitivity threaded throughout. Lazy comparisons might [...]

There’s this video promo floating around for the forthcoming Ted&Francis EP — aw, Kitsune always such a tease. But judging from this short clip, I hope there are many more visuals to accompany the audio.

BMX + The Emergency + Mr Mittens + Free City

April 7th, 2009

Full disclosure: Jad is a contributer to BIGSTEREO. Jad is in BMX. We love BMX because we love BMX and we’d post BMX even if Jad wasn’t part of BMX and/or BIGSTEREO. Internet haters recognize. Anyway — BMX hooked us up with some new remixes of “Theme To BMX” and “WAR.” Both tracks have become [...]
