![KIDNAP KID : Alphaville EP [Black Butter Records]](http://cdn.elbo.ws/posts/4136447_lg.jpg)
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.
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. This remix, along with a Quiet Village take on "Me Oh My", is available on a limited release from The Vinyl Factory . In other Todd Terje news, the Norweigian disco producer has just started a new blog, called "Let's Nerd", in which he "asks smart people stupid questions". Check out his first interview with DFA's James Murphy [...]

Zo'n drie jaar geleden rond deze tijd begon ik met mijn eerste baan. Ik werd projectmanager bij het internetbureau IIZT. Geleid door R., die bij KaZaA de grote marketingman was. Vanuit het kantoor hield ik contact met klanten en onze Poolse programmeurs, via Skype en Gmail. Niet altijd even makkelijk maar zo goed en kwaad als het ging deden we ons werk. Een spelfoutje of verdraaide vertaling kwam weleens voor maar uiteindelijk lukte het wel. In hetzelfde kantoor en met dezelfde programmeurs en collega's was er ook Respectance . Een site waar overledenen profielen konden krijgen en [...]
Here's your slice of nostalgia for Sunday. From 1984 we have Germany's Alphaville with Big In Japan. It's an absolutely amazing song. Banner flags and smoke were so big in the mid 80's! Buy Alphaville's music from: Follow @electronicrumor
I told you I would be back on Sunday even though my weekend was pretty epic. I got to go back stage at ZEDS DEAD and party with DC and Hooks. Yeah YOU HEARD ME. Epic weekend. Now lets stop being jealous and get ready for some delicious bass that I have prepared for you, with some [...]
The new Alphaville album ("Catching Rays on Giant") is not receiving as much attention as it deserves. The leading track from it is now a single and can be ordered from A Different Drum here . The B-side is "Unplugged Melody". YouTube has several videos for the track. "I Die for You Today", the previous single, was just brilliant, emotional, and everything synthpop should be.

It may have taken them a while, but Alphaville are finally back. Their new album Catching Rays On Giant will be released this Friday (November 19th) and, judging by the lead single I Die For You Today , it sounds most promising. Check out an acoustic version of that song, along with the usual offerings from this blog's favourites Editors , The Killers , and Placebo .
