![Bob Marley’s ‘Legend’ Meets ‘EDM’ with Official Remix Album [Featuring Pretty Lights, Thievery Corporation, RAC, and More!]](http://cdn.elbo.ws/posts/4965801_lg.jpg)
Ring the bells because Tuff Gong is rising! While Bob Marley-arguably the most symbolic musician of all time-will not be rising from his ashes (we can dream about a hologram), we're getting the next best thing: his music modernized. Sir Irie will have his iconic 1984 album 'Legend' re-interpreted for the with remixes from a host of veteran and modern dance producers. The decision from Marley's estate was certainly extremely difficult and will no doubt face criticism from many of his fans (as a money grab-it's being placed in Hyundai ads). But one must hope the reasoning behind [...]
A week ago, Beats Antique once again graced the city of Nashville with their presence. This time around, the trio set up shop at Cannery [...]
Listening to the new mix from Beats Antique is like basking in the garden of earthly delights. It was such an unexpected pleasure to have a Beats mix open with . . . wait for it . . . vocals (“Crooked Muse”). Not just a sample either. Real vocals. Music Player: [...]
Beats Antique has long been a favorite group of mine, and the last two weeks has solidly placed them in my all time top 5. Last Saturday they arrived in my little town of Bend, OR and blew the roof off of the Domino Room! Zoe Jakes displayed more energy than I have seen her put forth in quite some time. While David and Sidecar Tommy sent me into a bass trance track after track! Thank you Slipmat Science for turning eleven and bringing this wonderful threesome to Central Oregon! Then today, the group dropped [...]
We don't always post fan-submitted tracks, but when we do, MAN are they awesome! This track was provided to us by the Long Island Electronic Rock duo, Aiur . "Euphoria", has a whole slew of incredible facets. When I first saw the submission, I was so impressed by the efforts that went into the message that I HAD to listen to the track. Up-and-coming artists that want to be featured on the J, take note; a little effort goes a long way! In regards to the track, the band's influences, from around the music spectrum, peek through [...]
Photography: Joshua White Beats Antique is very popular, and I'm sure half of you know about them already, but I'm featuring them anyway because a) their tunes are awesome and b) a vast majority of them are freely available via Bandcamp , something you never see artists who have made it do. Cheers! Beats Antique - Roustabouts (Bassnectar Remix) Bobby Rydell - All I Want Is You (Beats Antique Remix) [...]
The experimental electronic music group Beats Antique have just announced their 2013 Animale Mechanique tour, with dates primarily on the East Coast leading up to their return to Electric Forest Festival this Summer. The Oakland-based three-piece-group, consisting of David Satori , "Sidecar" Tommy Cappel, and Zoe Jakes is well-known for their intricate live performances, exotic bellydancing, and unique blend of Eastern influences, world music and electronic production. Animale Mechanique, or "Mechanical Animal" represents a recurring theme within the group's work emphasizing the juxtaposition between the mechanized and organic forces of nature, [...]

Just before the trio known as Beats Antique left for Egypt's The Great Convergence , they dropped off this playlist of muses and inspirations for them, including songs that speak to the groups proclivities for eastern hues in their music. Definitely check out Tipper if you haven't heard them before, and enjoy Florence the "magic witch" closing out the set. Subscribe to Beats Antique's playlist on Rdio .

Full of drama and cinematic flair, the trio that make up Beats Antique carve their own niche in the world of electronica.
RR Every time Jason spins this track from the Bay Area’s Beats Antique , I think it would be the perfect addition to any Halloween playlist. It’s kinda spooky, dub-drenched, gypsy music. The musical trio consists of producers David Satori, Sidecar Tommy and world-renowned belly dance performer/producer Zoe Jakes , who brings a Middle Eastern edge to their dramatic electronic fare. Stream "The Allure" We’ll be offering this track as a free download [...]
The winds brushed past our excited faces last Friday when the fantastic trio formally known as Beats Antique decided to grace the Royale's stage. The electronic group, made up of David Satori, Tommy Cappel and Zoe Jakes, took Boston by storm with their musical prowess and expertise, toying the crowd with new releases, antique favorites and pure raw live instrumentation. If that wasn't enough, Ms. Jakes appeased the masses needing visual stimulation with exotic bellydancing and captivating glares that stopped you in your tracks. No matter what creed you were, what area you repped, or what hairstyle you rocked, [...]
LessThan3: How do you guys approach your performances and determining what to perform live and what to use in a prerecorded manner? David: It’s a lot of back and forth, because we are both producers and performers. Now that we’ve been performing so much, we’ve seen how us being on the road is influencing what kind of music we want to make. We’ll make a certain kind of song and we’re basically playing along with our precomposed music--taking out the drums and melodic elements and playing over the stripped down production [...]
Beats Antique: Contraption v. II - The new EP from Beats Antique , everyone's favorite Middle Eastern electronica outfit , does not disappoint - but it also doesn't stretch much. The tracks fit snugly into the band's self-created genre, and it's all got a good groove. But little of it grabs you and shows you something new. I'm surprised there weren't more influences from modern, seductive pop music. The exception is Track 4, "Crooked Muse," featuring Lynx . I give Lynx the credit - the groove is good as always, but the vocals are [...]

Growing like wildfire under the canopy of live electronica and experimental world fusion music, the acclaimed musical trio Beats Antique launch their fall tour to finish out 2012 in support of their upcoming release, Contraption Vol. 2 , a new cinematic, orchestral, and seductively bass heavy EP. As the trio masterfully merges modern technology, live instrumentation, brass bands, string quartets, glitch, and dubstep, Beats Antique’s highly anticipated new album explores another octave of musings first begun in 2007 with Tribal Derivations. Five years, four albums and two EPs later, Contraption Vol. 2 - will [...]
