With all the fanfare surrounding their comeback smash “Get Lucky” and this week's release of Random Access Memories , it’s easy to forget that French house ambassadors Daft Punk have been around for nearly two decades. Thanks to a sound that’s always been ahead of the curve (and robot helmets to mask any wrinkles), the duo of Guy-Manuel de Homem-Christo and Thomas Bangalter seem positively ageless more than 15 years after they first wowed us with their debut, Homework . That they’re [...]
Por: @ ejival Ejival , fundador del netlabel Static Discos , colaborador de MUTEK_MX y referencia indiscutible de la escena independiente de música electrónica en México, nos habla sobre Homework de Daft Punk y el impacto que tuvo en el mundo de la electrónica. 1997 representó un año crucial para el entendimiento de la música electrónica en términos globales y de popularidad. El '97 fue el año en que salieron discos icónicos en la creciente ola de música electrónica con el [...]
It's what we're all up to more or less all of the time whether incidental or concerted, though rarely do we stumble upon something anywhere near as majestic as this from former Emeralds ambientalist Mark McGuire . A sneak peep into a forthcoming LP entitled Along the Way , In Search of the Miraculous marries Asiatic twinkles with insistent nudges of guitar in what is one of the most harmonious sonic matrimonies since Air's Alone In Kyoto. And although alive to the intricate simplicities of his previous, it's the incorporation of albeit unintelligible lyrics for which this one will [...]
HOORAY! Hooray! It's a public holiday! Today in the UK it's the snazzily titled Early May Bank Holiday, and it looks like the sun has got his hat on too. And while I was rooting around looking for my emergency lagers, a clean pair of shorts, and the matches to light the barbecue, I also unearthed a Bank Holiday playlist I made a few years back, so I thought I'd share. Happy holidays, everyone!
By Stef Siepel May 03, 2013 The Weekly Froth! A weekly take on six tracks, most of which have recently popped up somewhere in the blogosphere. Bit of a mixed bag with a slight leaning towards house, disco, and remixes, but generally just anything that for some reason tickled the writer’s fancy. Track of the week: ‘On Your Own pt. 2’ by Fryars If you have heard the first part of this, then you might be surprised by this [...]
Words by Matt Yau Electro-pop trio Little Daylight are fast developing a reputation for crafting sky-soaring tracks radiating with vitality. ‘ Name in Lights ’ is the brightest of them all; a true escapist’s track. It may seem difficult then to see how LA duo Pacific Air could add anything to it. But immediately, the warbling bass lurches with substance while the spectral vocals stir a shadow. All over the tune are Pacific Air’s meandering trails that muddy the clean original. Beneath the 802s tinge, subtle textures and sharp melodies glimmer deep [...]
From Los Angeles, California, Caught a Ghost brew some pretty interesting music. It's a project from songwriter and producer Jesse Nolan. Featuring kindergarten classmate Sephen Edelstein on drums and vocals from Chanteuse Mvox, the trio produces an eclectic blend of modern blue eyed soul, classic motown and stax with hints here and there from more recent evolutions of dubstep, 90s hip-hop/rap and some contemporary electronica for good measure. A good first experience with Caught a Ghost would be their latest track 'No Sugar In My Coffee'... Satisfy your soul, right now : Caught a Ghost - [...]
Like many bands before them, French indie pop outfit Phoenix had put in a lot of time and hard work before breaking through in 2009 with Wolfgang Amadeus Phoenix , the band's most commercially successful LP and the catalyst to their success. Following the same formula in hopes of capturing lightning in a bottle twice was an understandable option, but an option they were not prepared to take. Rather than rest on their laurels and re-sketch the outline of W.A.P., Phoenix , although very much keeping with their pop sensibilities, have taken a somewhat different tact [...]
Phoenix experienced a fairly intense surge of popularity in late 2009, following (and anticipating) the release of what could be called their watershed album: Wolfgang Amadeus Phoenix , as well as popular singles "19013 and "Lisztomania." But Wolfgang Amadeus Phoenix was not the great reexamination of form for the veteran pop group that critics hailed it as – in fact it was fairly reverent in its continued patience for the bright, dance-tinged indie pop that Phoenix first started to develop in the late nineties. But it was a hallmark nonetheless and so the question became: where could the band possibly go [...]
"Tickets, I'll buy any spares." Rarely do we see such flagrant touting mere metres from the door as is tonight, though rarer still is a London date from Versailles hommes de rêves Phoenix . It's their first since not even Thomas Mars can recall when, and this particular soirée comes at the end of the jour to have seen the ensemble release their intensely anticipated fifth, Bankrupt! Thus although the StubHub advertising strewn with perturbing abundance about Shepherd's Bush can only exacerbate what appears an increasingly profuse issue, [...]
As you know, Record Store Day is on 4/20 this weekend. and it's a great date to support local record stores, buy exclusive new releases and just have fun appreciating music. One of the most coveted RSD releases this year is Astralwerks' limited edition 20/20 Vinyl Box Set to celebrate their 20th anniversary. They're one of my favorite labels, and this release is a great time capsule of all the great acts on their roster over the years. Included are exclusives or rarely heard tracks from Air, Hot Chip, Kings Of [...]

Opening doors in 1993, the folks at Astralwerks are celebrating their 20th and have put together a limited edition box set (only 1250 made and we've got number 313—holler Detroit) produced exclusively for Record Store Day on April 20th. In addition to the artists mentioned above, the boxset includes tracks from Basement Jaxx, The Beta Band, Cassius, The Chemical Brothers, Doves, Empire of the [...]
Housse De Racket doet het lekker. Niet in Nederland, maar in Frankrijk gaan ze best goed. Na hun eerdere hitje Synthetiseur brachten ze in 2011 het tweede album Alesia uit. Een lekker album p[ een nieuw label (Kitsune) met weer wat catchy nummers. Ook Victor en Pierre (de mannen achter Housse De Racket) komen namelijk uit de Franse disco-scene. Als studiomuzikanten voor Phoenix en Air besloten ze in 2005 zelf een bandje te vormen. Dankzij hun connecties zitten ze dus inmiddels op het label van Philippe Zdar en hebben ze korte lijntjes naar Daft Punk [...]
Sevgili bahar, Tam kavuştuk derken nereye kayboldun yine? Bu gelgitlerin ruh dengemi alt üst ediyor. Lütfen öyle pencereden bakıp bakıp kaybolma. Bizim dengemizi bozma sevgili bahar...

The announcement sent panic waves throughout the indie rockers of San Francisco: Phoenix at The Independent on April Fool's Day. And this was not a hoax. What it was, though, was an impossible ticket. A representative of The Independent was quoted in the paper as saying the show sold out "immediately." It sent everyone I [...] The post Show Review: Phoenix with Mac DeMarco at The Independent, 4/1/2013 appeared first on Spinning Platters .

It's not too often that a collision between two very musically diverse artists comes to fruition. However, for AM & Shawn Lee, their collaboration sprouted from an idiosyncratic shared passion: both were fans of vintage French and Italian Soundtrack music as well as digital effects from the '80s. The duo's ...
We all want so much man, over achievement and extreme ambition are glorified and admired almost universally these days but have you ever stopped to ask why?... Hustle, hustle, hustle. Grind, grind, grind. Why does everyone got hustle on their mind?" MIA was something else back then, I remember first hearing that hook and questioning everything. I won't get into all that right now now but always remember to look around your environment and question what you see. Just because everyone is doing something, just because it's tradition, [...]

Clocking in at a mere 15-seconds, the ad isn't revealing, but is just enough to build the on the already mounting anticipation.

You just finished reading Daft Punk ad airs during Saturday Night Live, potential new music builds anticipation ! [...]
