Brisbane’s guardian of the discotheque keeps the spirit of Lebatman alive amid a mischievous Clubber Lang sample - and a long & adventurous sprint into the forgotten vale of house music’s DNA. LEBATMAN - Alphaville (95 Royale Retro-Brigade Mix)
Upscale songs for a luxury lifestyle.

After a phenomenal year with Spinnin' Records , and Monstercat , it seems that Project 46 has finally found their niche in the industry so to speak, and while it's validity may have been questioned in the past, the music speaks for itself, and has all of us impressed. Landing a qualifying spot of DJ Mag's Top 100 list at a close #100, it goes without saying that it comes well deserved. From original remixes like "Reason" to "You & I" with DubVision and Leona Lewis to some absolutely incredible [...]

Thanksgiving, like the once annual airing of The Wizard Of Oz used to be , is an event. Yeah, some people make it out to be dysfunction junction (and for them, maybe it is), but getting to watch football all day on a day which usually would be spent slogging through work is a brilliant concept. And, of course, it is a chance to feast. It's like being king for a day. Bring me gravy! I shall gnaw on this turkey leg in a slovenly fashion as these superhumans [...]
Black Butter Records has announced the start of what they're calling "Black Butter Spread Love Series" (pun intended) in which they will give away a medley of releases from the label free of charge. We gotta admit, free downloads are a glorious thing. For this first installment of said series, the record label has chosen to gift us many remixes of Kidnap Kid 's recent smasher of an EP, Alphaville. The EP, released at the end of October, is chock full of tightly produced bass music and the remix collection [...]

When Kidnap Kid released his three track ‘Alphaville’ EP, we were blown away by its garagey goodness. Track ‘Vehl’ stands out as one of our favourite future garage releases, the soft French vocals and the beautifully brilliant melodies still give us goosebumps ( listen here ). So when Black Butter records emailed us to tell us they were revisiting the EP and offering free mixes as part of their ‘Black Butter Spread Love’ download series, our ears picked up. The free downloads include remixes by 3 hrs & Woz, Matta, [...]
Goin’ Old School isn’t a trip down music memory lane, it’s a mugging in the dark alleyway of nostalgia: 1989’s Tricky Disco from Tricky Disco . Not nearly as funny now, I guess you had to be there. From 1985, ItaloPop with Modern Talking ’s You Can Win If You Want. Alphaville ’s epic original version of Forever Young from 1984. [...]

Directed, edited & written by Drew Cox – this music video from Kidnap Kid invades the corners of your mind and dusts off those spots that you thought were left unchecked. Taken from his recent “Alphaville EP,” Kidnap Kid (Matt Kidnap) envisages lots of xylophone ruggedness on ‘Vehl,’ clasped together with root caused UK garage & off timed breakbeats. Savagely sound, this is the Kidnap Kid from Black Butter Records.

Bugün rotamızı 80'li yılların göze batan önemli olaylarına çeviriyoruz Roll Dergisi'nin 2005 yılında çıkan sayısı eşliğinde. BIG IN JAPAN Japonya'yla ne alakası olduğunu bir türlü anlayamamıştık. Meğerse "kimyalı araştırmalar" aleminde iyi bilinen bir vuruş noktasıymış. Alphaville'ciler de az cin değil. Çekik gözlülerle video çeken, şarkıya cin cong sesleriyle başlayan bizzat kendileri. Türkiye-Japonya milli maçı sonrası Milliyet'in başlığı da "Big In Japan"di, unutulmuş değil. BOB DYLAN KONSERİ 24 Haziran 1989 Cumartesi, yedi bin kişi Açıkhava [...]

Something magical happens to a sound once Todd Terje touches it. Whether it's an edit or a beautifully crafted original, his not-so-short discography is batting close to 1000. Terje Olsen is a man of many monikers... from his edit alias, Tanjoterje to Disco Terje to his current, Todd Terje (pronounced Terr-Yeh, which yes, is a 'subtle' nod to the famous house producer Todd Terry), Mr T seems to always be switching things up. Terje's early discography was widely focused around edits of nearly every genre, dubbed 'Remaster of the Universe' Terje put out a two-disc compilation on Permanent [...]
Peter Murphy and Cracker rocked uber cute Owl Mag writer, Vanessa Anton, back in the day.
Todd Terje war ja schon immer ein sehr fleißiges Tanzbienchen. Doch wo der Norweger dies in der Vergangenheit durch Unmengen von so großartigen wie inoffiziellen Disco-Edits unter Beweis stellte, scheint er sich in letzter Zeit vor allem auf Eigenproduktionen und hochamtlich abgesegnete Remixe zu konzentrieren. Worüber man sich nun wahrlich nicht beschweren kann, nach seiner exzellenten Eigensingle trumpft der Fragenerd nun mit einer betörend behutsam ausgebreiteten Uminterpretation von Alphaille . Der schönste Trick daran ist, dass das Original alles andere als so fröhlich versprungen ist wie hier. Dafür selbstverständlich keine Spur weniger geschmackvoll - was [...]

Matthew Kyle By Stef Siepel 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: ‘Just Say the World’ by Matthew Kyle This immediately starts right with a nice groove, and after twenty seconds it gets a little something something with a [...]

Outstanding track choice and remix production by Norwegian disco wizard Todd Terje, of Bryan Ferry's 'Alphaville'. Such a classic sound, and a bit of a time warp considering the original was only released last year. This one is perfect for a lounge/cocktail set. Old school cool. Like a cucumber. > TODD TERJE RECOMMENDED: Bryan Ferry - Alphaville (Todd Terje remix) Posted by Celebrity Sex Tape.

Alphaville - (Todd Terje Remix) by BryanFerry Superb rework of Bryan Ferry's "Alphaville", off his latest album "Olympia", from the one and only Todd Terje.
