I've been feeling a little uninspired lately. Especially in the choon department. I've devoted most of my free time to sewing clothes - im a modern-day Chanel. After miraculously PASSING all my goddamn subjects, I just belieeeeeeve i can do anything - except for come up with something to blog about. Nothing interesting has happened [...]

Back on track and in our favorite year ever (the year I picked up Piano actually) 1997. This year marked the release of the quintessential French House/Touch album, being Super Discount from Etienne De Crecy (pictured). However, it was actually released a few days (really days) after Homework, so it definitely was not the first like many claim. Also, I'm including the first release on the label Crydamoure , a label set up by Guy-Manuel De Homem Christo of Daft Punk and Eric Chedeville. Discogs describes the [...]
Vi starter ud med et "nyt" Breakbot -track. Egentlig er det produceret tilbage i 2008, men i forbindelse med den nye DIESEL:U:MUSIC -compilation Edges (A New French Electronic Generation) , så har franske Breakbot shinet sit track op i en 2009-udgave og smidt det med på D:U:M -kompilationen. Hvis du ikke kan få nok af tracket, så kan du opleve Breakbot + D.S.L + Data Sapiens til september, hvor ULAH afholder Ed Banger Night på Train - mere info her . [...]

Belgian Luuk Cox and Jimmy Dewit from Shameboy are quite new to me. I heard their electro banger Stumble last year but rediscovered them again when i heard my favourite dj Alex Gopher doing a brilliant remix of their 2005 song "Rechoque"...and I'm hooked again. I love their dark electronic sound and strongly suggest you see them live if they come to your city (the apparently made a brilliant performance at Rock Werchter 2008) or just simply buy their music here . See their myspace page here . [...]
We're featured on the Blog of the Week on BreakThruRadio so we're gonna have to write some of the posts in english (don't mind if there's something weird on it). Mas não se preocupem, a tradução está logo abaixo!The great Alex Gopher is back! I think the last thing we heard from him was the remix for Kid Sister's Get Fresh. Now, the french DJ show us another hugh track. Remixed by the likes of

Since summer is well underway in the northern hemisphere, music production goes up 10 fold. Everyone wants to these their music ready for the summer as summer in Europe is party time. So I have been noticing a few tracks getting about and thought I would give you a preview. First one is a relatively new one by Larry Tee that was released at the start of May, remixed by afrojack. Its got the vocal and a de-constructed feel about it. Being played by LBL and the likes. [...]

Malente 's new 12" single package "Music Forever" is out tomorrow, June 16, from Southern Fried Records--pick it up on Beatport or in stores. The release comes with two new songs: "Music Forever" and "Feel It," plus plenty of crowd pleasing remixes from Freaks, Dada Life, Solo, Act Yo Age, Urchins, and Alex Gopher. The original mix of "Music Forever" is full of bleeps and blips, and it's perfect for a deep space dance party! Picture astronauts with glowsticks and you'll get the picture. "Feel It" is a bit more sunshine but still has the [...]

Belgium 's dance/pop producer, Shameboy released 'Redchoque' way back in early 2005. The track hit the top of the charts and got play time from djs such as Tiga, Felix Da Housecat, Mylo, Alex Gopher, Etienne De Crécy and Timo Maas, just to name a few. Fast forward to May 2009, and 'Rechoque' is back with a new fix. The re-release feature remixes by Alex Gopher , Markus Lange , and Fukkk Offf . The track is very catchy and poppy,as well as synth heavy with bleeps and blewbs. Enjoy! [...]

In the city Por ponerle una etiqueta, 25 Hours A Day hace french house-pop no demasiado electrónico, del mismo modo que The Teenagers o Benjamin Diamond (Stardust). En 2006 sacó su primer 123 , remezcla de Mr. Oizo incluida/desapercibida. Y también hay cosillas para Charlotte Gainsbourg, Cassius y algo más... todo escasamente valorado. Phoenix - Long Distance Call (25 Hours A Day remix) Alex Gopher - Carmilla [...]

Apocalypse now Qué bueno, qué bueno: este Redux EP es todo lo que prometía unas semanas ha , incluso un pelín más. No se le puede pedir a la segunda división A del electro: un póker de ases ideales para combatir la obviedad, con cuatro sonidos complementarios, a cual mejor. Como su nombre indica, la original de Shameboy (a quienes ya os habíamos recomendado aquí ) es una nueva versión de Rechoque , de 2005. El temas en sí ya es un pepinaco, casi no [...]

Shameboy released their new EP 'Rechoque Redux' on PIAS Recordings lately. 'Rechoque Redux' is a fucking banger.

Was at Cargo in Shoreditch last night and saw heard awesome electro. The DJ trio ending the night were off the wall, throbbing out tune after banging tune for an idyllic couple of hours, interspersed by the occasional hands-in-the-air classic remix (see below). This all happened surrounded by a gorgeous crowd of trendy 20-somethings going mental at a venue that doesn't even charge entry. Brilliant. AC Slater ( last.fm / myspace ) has been crafting some of the best remixes in the last few months and I'm absolutely loving this electro hash of a dance anthem. [...]

Sunday Post Nothing but hard and fast techno for you this Sunday Post as the Drop The Lime hangover from last night has yet to be cured. The native New Yorker dropped heavy straightforward Trouble and Bass style technical electro for the entire set. The crowd for the show was a quarter of the size of his original trip to Winnipeg but that did not stop his steamroller track selection that brought the bassline fever to a peak by 1:30 AM. He used a mic two or three times in [...]

Just A Band is a electro-house duo ( Tom Deluxx & stellA ) from Bordeaux, France. ...HEY! Get the hell back here. These guys really aren't just another shitty Justice -wannabe. I promise. Honestly, they make some of the most exciting house you've heard in a while. Yes, you can hear some slight Justice-aping, but really these are the perfect spring/summer jams to grind on that random person to. Their two main singles (and accompanying EPs) are absolutely epic: "Burn It Out!" is an [...]

Emails. Myspace messages. Twitters. "WHY DUN YOU DO REMIXERY ANYMORZ?". Answer 1) Take downs . Answer 2) Takes forever to upload... But! It's back! Rejoice! Dance! Tell all your internet friends! As per-usual none of these are "NEW HOT SHIT" but they are pretty damn amazing and a few of these are on the "bit rare" side. リミックス特集はもう しないの?という問い 合わせは結構もらって たんですが、これは結 構な仕事量なので頻繁 にできなかったり、ト ラックを外さなくちゃ いけなかったりでした が、今回久しぶりにや りました。新しいもの ではないですが、お楽 しみください。 Breakbot is amazing, this remix of "Fatlip" was pretty "yuh-huh" until I realised there was an instrumental of it and turns out that the instrumental is [...]

image: #HCKFA via flickr Some real talk between a friend and I on current 'hot' electronic music producers has been happening lately. We've got the utmost respect for the production and success of all these guys and gals; but let's be honest -a great portion of their original songwriting can be really pants when compared to their 'hit' remixes. [ there was a huge rant on songwriting vs remixing that previously occupied this space, but I've decided to spare the eyes. when it comes down to it, remixing will [...]

Munday Post No Sunday Post yesterday due to a family gathering but I am back at it with a Munday Post for you. The first half of the post today is comprised of the more poppy, experimental and indie stuff from the past week and the bottom half is the DJ material.
