DJ Koze is a name I'm familiar with, having listened to his countless remixes and productions during my IDM phase a few years back. Apparently, the German DJ/producer just released his first solo album in 9 years entitled "Amygdala" (bonkers artwork above), with help from an all-star cast of featured vocalists like Dan Snaith of Caribou , Matthew Dear , and crooner-du-jour Milosh of Rhye fame. However, much to my surprise, track 6 featuring Ada is actually a cover of Kings of Convenience ! "Homesick" is a lovely cut on their 2004 [...]
Between all this noise about Daft Punk's new single 'Get Lucky' (Is it real? Is it fake??), it is sometimes easy to forget that there is plenty of other excellent music about. As perfectly nice as 'Get Lucky' is, I think that a suitable audible mind-number is necessary after all of it's shrill collateral. Featured on Ada 's new record ' Paws 1 ' is one such track. Not to say that it is boring, but Superpitcher 's lovelily beatless interpretation of ' Interlude ' does a [...]
★★★★☆ Koze through the looking glass is a reading of bedtime stories for cosmic disco romantics. A follower of its own path and bringing an enchantment honored by the album cover's mediaeval superhero impersonation, its light-fingered grip holds firm throughout. Heavy is the path less travelled, winding up like clockwork until the springs go loco when it does, with sighing vocals indicative of the reassurances Koze consistently offers. Deep house settlers keep things simple, working a little heartening charm that lets you reach your own woozy highs and joys, whether by long unbroken background [...]
Faith di Ada diventa una traccia ballabile, ma non perde niente dell’incanto della versione originale , nella versione remix contenuta nel nuovo EP Paws I uscito a Marzo per Areal Records ; Interlude nelle mani di Superpitcher, invece, resta sospesa in un sogno ad occhi aperti di dodici minuti:
Making a truly timeless record is really, really hard. Without the ability to look into the future and see what sounds and styles are going to fall out of fashion, artists often just have to take the gamble and see what happens. With all the knowledge and ability you have as an artist, you need to take a snapshot of the current that won't age even when viewed by an unfamiliar audience. The resulting roller coaster is an odd "win some lose some". It's the difference between Michael Jackson's Thriller and Bad , despite the fact that [...]

LWE's 90th podcast, contributed by Ada, was a cozy mix of melodic techno that, according to her, is how she imagined an early night's set in June to feel. Be sure to add it to your collection before it's archived this Friday, June 29th.
Mary Epworth is getting plenty of blog attention at the moment, not only is she a really compelling singer songwriter, but who ever is choosing the remixers for her music is doing a sterling job - there's not been one bad one. Today's latest effort come from Micheal & Mattis - who pretty much do-away with the vocal and create a effects-driven piece of barron house - admittedly the description doesn't sound all that enticing, but somehow with lashings of deep sub-bass it works from start to finish. The vocal effects are particularly jarringly brilliant. Mary's [...]

We thought that the Silent Disco at the recently concluded Indo-German Urban Mela in Mumbai would be either be hilariously bad or, well, quite good. But in the end, it was a bit of both. Although the “India Goes 3D” gig was also a silent disco with the added novelty of 3D video, it wasn’t quite as fantastic as the first day of thrills and spills at the Mela. DJ Uri and Daniel Haaksman were the DJs on the first Silent Disco night and they had no idea what they were getting into. It wasn’t even all that silent because [...]

Get TiLTed! The inaugural edition (and only edition) of The TiLT Festival was a two-day event which took place at Blue Frog, Mumbai in 2010 (you can check out the previous lineup here ).

Hideo Kojima, the mastermind behind the Metal Gear and Zone of the Enders series, has taken to Twitter to tease an image from the new anime opening to the ZOE HD remake. The images are fairly self-explanatory , simply revealing the orbital frame Jehuty in the new art style . The first game in the series, Zone Of The Enders, featured a more realistic look than the second instalment. The Second Runner adopted an anime art style in the cutscenes with the introduction of a new protagonist, Dingo Egret. While an anime introduction may be in [...]
There are thousands of popular artists out there today making new singles all the time. With the increase of bedroom producers, though, the ability to simply download a whole studio that you can use right on your lap has made original songs more scarce. Now it seems that you're finding tens of thousands of remixes by artists [...]
Ryan sent me this last weekend when it was actually snowing in the city. It was Halloween weekend and all of a sudden there was miserable snow everywhere threatening to ruin all the crazy festivities. I DJ'd at Elle that and then somehow ended up in a Brooklyn warehouse Halloween party till like 9 the next day so I didn't get to post this when it was most appropriate. Either way, the snow might be gone but old man winter is only getting started and for that reason it's my pleasure to welcome back Mr. Radler and his new cold [...]
