UPDATE: Now with 100% badass music video! Electro hero Kavinsky announces the Protovision EP, which is the precursor to (OMG YUSSS) his forthcoming album “Outrun”. If this single track is evidence of what’s to come, we are in for a real treat. I suppose we’ll all have to patiently wait until February…
Our own FLU SOUND (Luke Rossouw) returns with two new new rhythms, featuring his ever-present penchant for unique samples (IE that fast hedgehog). After speaking with him about his latest productions I get the feeling he’ll be putting out more of his unique sounds in the weeks to come, hopefully including his newer hip hop …
It was a magical time when these two forces combined with Lifelike remixing The Presets “This Boy’s In Love” way back in the glory days of 2008. That remix became an anthem, and those special feelings are revisited in this fantastic adaptation. This one’s out on the “Promises” EP – December 4th on Modular. “Pacifica” …
The wait is over, and it was definitely worth it. This remix has become mythical over the last 30 years or so (blog years, more or less equal to about 1). Oliver take Aeroplane’s “We Can’t Fly” and put their magic sheen on it, which is always a beautiful combination of terrific musicianship and glossy production. Welcome to the …
I came across FINS today by chance while browsing, and immediately began digging their music (and whole aesthetic as well). They’re a quartet out of Boston, bringing some fun indie and surf sounds with the occasional synth stab. Apparently their debut album is forthcoming, I’ll definitely be looking forward to it. You can download their … Continue reading »
Oliver (Oliver Goldstein and Vaughn Oliver) have been hitting the studio again, evident by this huge wave of awesome that has shown up on Soundcloud over the last bit. In chronological order, we have: A-Trak (Feat. Oliver) – Disco Nap – A fast-paced electro party tune from A-Trak featuring the duo. Alex Metric … Continue reading »
Funkateers Chromeo take on Boys Noize single “What You Want”, and it’s crazy good. This seems to go beyond what is normally defined as a remix, with Chromeo almost creating a brand new version of the track, with tons of originality (while still remaining much of the same song). Leave it to these two dance … Continue reading »
EDIT: Site seems to be up and running again, back to the old logo design. Guess I got too excited over nothing… for now anyway. Now this is purely speculation. But I believe something is afoot. If you visit Daft Punk’s website, you’ll find that (as of right now, anyway) it’s under construction. It’s been … Continue reading »
I’ll have this one on repeat. Two giants of excellence converge, Classixx taking on Passion Pit with rich synths. It spells out dreamy love, summertime, and pure radness. And there’s a nice Peter Hook-esque bassline in there, too. Go download it from SoundCloud! Continue reading »
This one has arrived in all it’s beauty. “Clair De Lune” is a huge, open and orchestral-sounding piece of music from Flight Facilities. Many more adjectives come to mind when describing this one, but it’s better just to listen to it for yourself. Christine Hoberg’s haunting vocal sits on top in a delicate and suiting … Continue reading »
Check out this dope video for an equally dope track. It features Destructo and Oliver (Oligee and U-Tern) cruising around the Los Angeles area and generally being supercool. LA is truly one funky place. You can purchase the track here. Continue reading »
