Filed under: News , Video , Exclusive , RPM , EDM Kevin Winter, Getty Radiohead -approved DJ Kid Koala had one day to put together the video for "8 Bit Blues" from his album 12 Bit Blues before he had to hit the road for a tour. As you can see in the AUX TV "Band in a Box" clip below, he used that time crunch for [...]
Kid Koala - 12 Bit Blues // Why does the Chinese-Canadian DJ wear a fury, full-body koala suit? Because Eric San (aka Kid Koala) is a man of his word. Kid Koala explained to his London crowd last night that the koala suit was the result of a lost bet. Expect the outfit to make 100 gig appearances. So. Here is what you need to do: 1. Get a taste of his 12 bit blues over at Ninja Tune 2. Catch him performing all his [...]
A ideia de incorporar elementos eletrônicos e/ou populares ao Blues não é nova mas poucos desenvolvem tão bem esse conceito quanto Eric San, mais conhecido como o DJ, produtor e quadrinista Kid Koala . Com lançamento marcado para 18 de setembro pela Ninja Tune, 12 Bit Blue s oferece uma visão bem particular do velho gênero sulista, com todos os ingredientes necessários que transportam o Blues para nossa nossa contemporaneidade. O áudio completo é um oferecimento do parceiro Exclaim! . Enjoy :
ALTHOUGH in some respects you never know what to expect from off-the-wall DJ Kid Koala - oddball samples, unexpected projects, free videogames, etc. However you can expect, as I suspected when I fingered 12 Bit Blues as a potential album of the year a few months ago, excellence - and Koala, real name Eric San, has once again delivered. Using a newly-acquired E-mu SP-1200 sampler - an 'old skool' piece of hip hop production equipment San had wanted since he was a youngster - Kid Koala has cut up and reordered the sounds that came out of grizzled [...]
Known for his sublime beatscapes, graphic novels and comics, Canadaian turntablist Kid Koala takes his creativity to the next level with his upcoming album, 12 Bit Blues . Now get this: the album's limited edition first run will come with a cardboard, hand powered turntable kit. Are you reading this, Gizmodo? Equally as interesting is that Koala (a.k.a Eric San) forged all of the album’s tracks on an old school E-mu SP-1200 sampler, a production unit he fantasized about owning when he was a kid. According to Ninja Tune, "over three days he cut up [...]

Keeping with the strange fusions. It took an odd set of post-punkers to hitch their wagon to samba styles that must've seemed a million miles from their time. But these juxtapositions just remind us how arbitrary any time is and how many different versions could exist. Taking a cue from the cover, I prefer to imagine these streams flowing into a future I may be brave enough to inhabit. Or at least an apartment I might rent. Here are two songs from that world — one coldly wacked-out cover, the other a warm bolus of mechanical sunshine. [...]

Antena is the result of 2 years at studio : Delicate glitches, selected grooves, deep chords and sometimes vivid and other time's dark looped sequences enveloping voice and metalized samples.

Phreek Plus One (Ivan Savoldi aka Ivan N. Dj, Alessandro Cattenati, Giovanni Guerretti) naturales de Brescia (Italia), que empezaron como dúo y el amor que tenían por la música Disco y Funk les metió en la música, después de 4 EP y 5 años, llega de su álbum de debut en el sello alemán Compost Records, un disco maravilloso de estos 3 músicos y grandes conocedores-coleccionistas de la música, desde el jazz, al disco, pasando por el funky y la música brasileña, y de esta forma nos encontramos un disco lleno de todos estos matices, gran producción y arreglos.

Ok, this is really the last of our 2010 reviews. Anchoring this column is Keith , who's listened to more reissues this year than Brian and me combined, putting us to great shame. Enjoy the list, and have an awesome year ahead! Antena – Camino del Sol (Numero) I suppose we could possibly populate this list with plenty of the other fascinating releases from the Numero label, and French trio Antena’s 1982 debut album is one of our favorite things. The fleet and exquisite [...]

Antena - Noelle A Hawai (1982)
A classic summer track for Sunday evening. Camino del sol Hotel Palm beach Air florida... Antena: 'Camino Del Sol' [1982] [ mp3 ]
The French coldwave response to dark moments in the vacation sun.
Minimal 802s coldness effects to produce an eerily cold ode to summer lust.

Τα remix έρχονται από παντού. Φτάνει μόνο να τσεκάρεις το email σου ανά 10 λεπτά και μετά να βρεις χρόνο για το ξεκαθάρισμα. Τσοκ δουλειά! Αυτή η Mix O'Clock (εδώ και 3 βδομάδες περιμένει να..ανέβει) έχει, σχεδόν, τα πάντα: Ένα piano-pella που δεν λέει να σταματήσει (παίζει ακόμη και όταν κοιμάσαι), ένα motel κάπου στο Camino Del Sol (έχεις ξαναπάει, αλλά δεν το θυμάσαι), άλογα που τραγουδάνε acapella (βρε μανία με το pella), ληγμένα μανιτάρια (με τέτοια κρίση, θα τα φας!), μια βόμβα καμουφλαρισμένη σε μπουκάλι λεμονάδας (3...2...1...την άνοιξες; Σόρι, του λέιτ), μπουφέ από 80s synths (μασουλάς και παίζεις [...]
Ist ziemlich ruhig geworden in meiner Zweitwohnung . MySpace war ja als soziales Netzwerk, zumindest in Deutschland nie der wirkliche Renner. Allein fr Musikinteressierte war und ist MySpace als Anlaufstelle fr Infos immer noch ein Muss. Gegen Facebook und Twitter kommt MySpace aber zuknftig wohl nicht an. Dort wird virtuelle gequatscht und geschwafelt, das es ein wahre "Pracht" ist. Einzige Chance, zu berleben, MySpace wird sich wohl noch mehr als bisher auf das Thema Musik konzentrieren mssen. Noch hat so ziemlich jede Band hier eine Profilseite mit aktueller Musik und Konzertterminen und ist die Anlaufstelle [...]
