It's been quite a busy year for French songstress Émilie Simon . Back in April, the now New-York-based chanteuse finally dropped her most recent album "The Big Machine" in the US after nearly two years of its original release. The album saw her leaving behind trip-hop soundscapes to explore '80s electro-pop, and spawned two fantastic singles/visuals, namely "Dreamland" and "Rainbow" . The project goes on as she just released a new US EP, "The Cycle" , featuring the album cut & new remixes. The [...]

Here's Bronski Beat 's 1986 top ten hit 'Hit That Perfect Beat'. The track contains one of the catchiest lead lines you will ever hear! The clips in the video come from the film Letter To Brezhnev, which features the song on it's soundtrack. Buy Bronski Beat's music from:
Bronski Beat : It Ain't Necessarily So [ purchase ] Aretha Franklin : It Ain't Necessarily So [ purchase ] Porgy and Bess , the 1935 faux-folk opera by the Gershwin Brothers, was a creation of its racist times. On one hand, it perpetrates a seriously distorted view of black America of that or any other time, with its focus on drugs, gambling, casual sex, and violence. On the other, it gave focus [...]
Just a few weeks back , we shared some unique and beautiful music from French songstress, Émilie Simon . We've brought her back today, firstly because The Big Machine is a heck of a record, and probably something that's going to evade your ears if you stick to traditional outlets. Secondly, Ms. Simon absolutely charmed us with her sparse piano-driven take on one of those songs that made the 80s so great and so confusing, Bronski Beat's Smalltown Boy . MP3 : [...]
Emilie Simon The Big Machine (Le Plan; April 26, 2011) "Smalltown Boy" (Bronski Beat Cover) MP3 Premiered On FILTER Today! "inventive" – The New Yorker "A riveting album by a truly magnificent eccentric, her live show… is also strongly recommended for a full dose of her brilliant outlandishness." – Blackbook "… songwriter with a demure crackly voice whose music is rooted in Björk-esque notions of how technology and nature stream together." – SPIN "… an electro-pop singer with a thump, purr, and sizzle." – Interview Emilie [...]
It is quite fitting that we just featured an ode to the fertile musical territory that is Brooklyn because it continues to produce noteworthy artists. Not least mysterious trio Sensual Harassment who have taken the act of providing scarce information on oneself to a new level with a minimalist website and bio to boot. This [...]
Although we always aim to bring you the very best we can find in cutting edge music, today's recommendation has us that little bit extra excited and is passed to you whilst we jig up and down in our seats like a giggling, sugar-fuelled baby.

RÜFÜS are Jon George, James Hunt and vocalist Tyrone Lindqvist and they punt out the kind of advanced, electronic indie that has us feeling like we've [...]

Filed under: The Hit List For many fabulous folks around the globe, June is Pride Month, when queers of all stripes celebrate being out and proud. But despite the diversity, Pride parades frequently resort to the same played-out gay anthems. There are certainly other options in the queer musical canon: They just might not be quite as obvious. Some musicians create equally powerful songs by wrapping [...]
Daniel Decker hat sich schon immer selbst Freiräume erkämpft. Schon vor Jahren gründete er sein eigenes Label Lolila und verlegte dort die Musik von unter anderem Er France und Na Sabine, wie sieht's aus in München?!. Beides Bands, die nicht gerade für besonders radiofreundliche Musik stehen. Auch er selbst machte schon damals Musik als Pawnshop Orchestra, passte selbst auch perfekt auf sein Lonely Little Label . Die Enklave -Ep, seine erste CD unter bürgerlichem Namen, erscheint zwar bei Tumbleweed, aber Freiräume hat er auch da. 1 Und wo er keine [...]
