Over the weekend our friend Alex B (Paper Diamond) of Pretty Lights Music announced that his new EP Wavesight will be released on Mad Decent May 3rd. Since January of 2011, Alex has found himself traveling the globe with non-stop shows, festival plays and around the clock studio sessions. With one EP and a handful of big remixes [...]
Filed under: Concerts and Tours , Exclusive , RPM , Q + A Magnum PR What a difference a remix makes. Just ask Paper Diamond , the 28-year-old producer behind the most infectious, dance-worthy take on Kanye West 's return-to-the-spotlight anthem 'Power.' By grabbing just a handful of works from the rapper's track and swapping out a wobbly, bass-infused dance breakdown for the song's own bass line, Paper Diamond (aka Alex B) found [...]

Aleb B released a new album last week through the Pretty Lights label under his new name Paper Diamond. I just got around to listening to the entire thing all the way through, and it is in its entirety a must sample. The style is somewhere in between Pretty Lights and Mimosa, and much like a lot of the music Alex B has already put out under his own name, except that I feel like he may have put a little more time into this album. And it shows. Download the whole thing by clicking the link below: [...]

Most people have become familiar with Kanye's anthem single off his last album, Power. It was the song with the painting of music video. I heard a few rapper freestyle over it and some remixes and wasn't really impressed with any other version, but now I've found one of the sickest remixes to the song, and done by Paper Diamond, aka Alex B (who brought you You And I Both Know )of The Pnuma Trio's new project under Pretty Lights Music, Derek of Pretty Lights' new label. This is a remix to promote the release of his debut album [...]

To do so, Smith formed Pretty Lights Music, a record label with the objective of giving away free music to fans of electronic dance music, by artists handpicked by Smith himself. The new label [...]

Today I've got a sick track that I know you're gonna love. It's an electronic banger with some funk to it. It's done by Alex B based out of Boulder, and who's also apart of the electronic jam group The Pnuma Trio, and the song is called 'You An I Both Know'. It's a single that came out earlier this year. It reminds me a little bit of Pretty Lights in that electronic funk sound, but a little more bass heavy making it a BANGER, yet still maintains a chill tone throughout. For those of you in Colorado, Alex B [...]

Ayer Ghostly lanzó "Wax Rose Saturday", la más reciente entrega de corta duración realizada por el nerdazo de Brian Lindgren para este sello de música electrónica avanzada estadounidense. Uno de nuestros favoritos a decir verdad. Resulta que el EP no es del todo abstracto o clavado, pues además de su propia reversión de "Wax Rose Saturday" (sencillo disponible en su LP debut, "Skulltaste") y la nueva pista, llamada "Valley Girls", Mux Mool también ha incluido diferentes remixes -a tracks del "Skulltaste"- de Daso , Alex B , Devonwho , Free The Robots [...]

Some durty beats... because we can. Can't help but snap my neck to this Bassnectar tune with added vocals from of King Fantastic. Starts off as bassy beats, finishes as a big bassy mess. Brilliant. Don't know much about this guy, just discovered him in the blogosphere. Maybe one to watch out for? Redlight's 'MDMA' tune has got a new name and a snazzy Ms Dynamite vocal. The [...]
A more than mouth full remix from Colorodo's Alex B , who does his fair share of satanic sentencing. The mix is a product off the Robot Koch and Mexicans with Guns collab EP, Friends of Friends Volume 3, through LA based label Friends of Friends . You'll have to hang tight till the release's October 5th debut date, along with the other remixes from Salva, King Cannibal, Lunice, Mux Mool, and Free the Robots . [...]

Since then, he's teased us with more original creations, supplied mixes elsewhere, and also contributed a track to Jus Like Music & Apple Juice Break present: Oscillations. But the wait is over - Alex [...]
There's nothing like a good fast paced piano to get your feet moving, and Jamie Lidell certainly delivered that last night at The Independent. Though there were a few "huh?" moments, overall the show was eclectic, bringing together a mix of funky beats and soulful vocals.

So I'm on my way to Taylor's house to record, I'm running pretty late, and it turns out he'd been taking an epic nap for a solid 4 hours. In conclusion, we both lagged yesterday and forgot to post up a reminder on the blog for the mix sessions! We did however remember to press record, so here is our third edition. Thank you very much to those of you who did remember to tune in, it's much appreciated! Enjoy. [...]
