Alpines were one of our "Ones To Watch: 2012" and with the release of latest single, "Empire", they're starting to prove a good bet. continue reading >>
One bangs drums in slow mo whilst the other appears in a floating wish of white cloth. Yep it's the ALPINES ' new video, EMPIRE . And if you don't know much about this electro-goth-popping nodnoL based duo then you should watch my interview with them once you've checked the ALPINES ' fantastic new video below.
Following up their collaborative series, night pop twosome Alpines return with a new tune titled 'Empire.' Stream the percussion heavy pulsating track below. Expect the single to see daylight June 11th and their debut project released later this year. Alpines - Empire
Alpine's latest EP, Zurich, is along the lines of Metric, Massive Attack, or Air... in other words, prepare to be amazed and elevated.
As you may have noticed, we love music videos around here. We even have a sexiest video award wherein we name our top 5 videos from the previous year. Admittedly, most aren't particularly sexy, but they are fantastic. Today, however, we just so happen to have a couple of videos that actually qualify as sexy... Today CFCF releases Exercises , his 2nd EP in as many years and because [...]
I love putting together our monthly mixtapes. It's fun slowly compiling the tracks over the course of the month; it's fun sequencing the tracks for the mix; and I love that "ah ha" moment when I realize the mix is finally done. All of the pieces for this one fell into play last night, and although I normally like living with my mixes for awhile before sharing them, this one just seemed ready to be set free. You'll find lots of great new music from familiar artists like Aesop Rock, steffaloo, and Ty Segall and White Fence, but this mix [...]

Dive / credit: Captured Tracks Thanks, perhaps, to their relationship with Steve Albini, the Wedding Present's albums always sound terrific. Albini didn't lay a finger on their latest, Valentina , but the guitars still smolder and the drums cut through the mix like a machete. The waveforms probably look like Giselle Bundchen. It doesn't hurt that the band, over two decades in, still has songwriting sharpness and romantic spite to spare. Here's Valentina 's lead track. I've been worshipping at the Captured Tracks altar for a year or [...]
The latest Lana Del Rey remix comes from Alpines , the moody pop duo previously responsible for this great Emeli Sande remix . Their rework of her new single "Blue Jeans" follows a similar palette, with postdubstep beats and some nice piano bits. They are quite good at this remixing thing, aren't they? STREAM: Lana Del Rey - Blue Jeans (Alpines Remix) Their new EP Gold is out now on iTunes UK , including this fab Carly Simon cover . [...]
A gorgeously weird video for Alpine's single "Hands" directed by Luci Schroder . The song is a preview of their forthcoming debut album, coming sometime in 2012 on Ivy League . You can grab their first EP now on iTunes . Also good: Star Slinger's remix of Alpine's Icypoles . via the always amazing Beautiful Decay
Ahora sí que sí. Después de meses de ausencia tenemos de vuelta la sección regalona del equipo de NNM.cl: el Top 10 de temas recomendados del mes. Marzo fue un mes intenso con muchos lanzamientos de excelente calidad y variados estilos. Como esto siempre tiene algo (o mucho) de subjetividad, los primeros lugares se los llevan, Hot Chip (el primero), uno de nuestras bandas favoritas y, por cierto, uno de los lanzamientos más esperados para este 2012. Luego, en segundo, asoma Goldroom , nuestro productor favorito de lo que va del año. Sus remixes y creaciones originales [...]
Still enjoying the impressive success from their recent Niki & The Dove remix, emerging producers Faustix and Imanos are back with another massive club banger. True to their fashion, the pair attacks Alpine's Indie anthem, 'Hands' by infusing it with a smooth and melodic synth that quickly builds into distortion-heavy madness. Another huge release that's [...]
Filed under: Monthly Mixtape Flickr March is over. The trees are budding early, the flowers are blooming into a bounty of spring colors, Valdimir Putin is the president of Russia again, Rush Limbaugh called a respectable human being a "slut" and the earth ticks ever closer to the end of times. So what better way to await the arrival of the alien drone destroyers than this kick-ass mixtape. After you buy extra water and batteries, unplug [...]
Last week Goldroom embarked on a European tour. We're stoked that one of the stops is here in Stockholm playing with us (on April 14). The Paris show was last Thursday, but all you people in Barcelona, Palma de Mallorca, Thessaloniki, Athens and Sopot should study the tour schedule carefully. And this is roughly what your in for when you go see him (go to Goldroom's facebook page for the tracklist): Goldroom - Aviva Mix 2012 by Goldroom [...]
