WTP? Why this post? Why, Solitude is Bliss happens to be a hit highlight and fan favorite from Tame Impala , an Australian psychedelic rockers outfit, which is off their album Innerspeaker. Another Aussie, DJ duo Canyons, remixed the tune adding bits of hand drums. MP3/Stream: Tame Impala - Solitude Is Bliss (Canyons Remix) via RCRDLBL
Tame Impala have been lighting up the blogs lately with their debut LP Innerspeaker . And for some reason, I was never really on board, always pushing the album aside and convincing myself I'd get to it later. But when I saw Pitchfork posted a Canyons remix of the lead single "Solitude of Bliss" I knew that I finally had to give some of the album a listen. If you're not hip to Canyons, no worries, as this remix is a subtle and effective edit of what was already a hook laden power [...]
Let's go to Australia? Let's meet Tortoiseshell ? Let's ear This Girl remixed by Canyons ? Let's. So beautiful, so 'dancy', so nostalgic. I'll sleep better tonight. Vamos à Austrália? Vamos conhecer os Tortoiseshell ? Vamos ouvir a This Girl misturada pelos Canyons ? Vamos. Tão bonita, tão dançável, tão nostálgica. Hoje vou dormir melhor.

Another lovely addition to your summer playlist. Sydney's Tortoiseshell 's debut single is coming out on Hole In The Sky on June 14th (tomorrow!). Produced by none other than Australia's Canyons ' (DFA / Modular), the single is lovely beach pop without the surf. Instead of jangly guitars, we get a disco beat, spaced out vintage synths and an arousing catchy chorus. While you're at it Listen to this Canyon's track. The harsh synth stabs, rolling bleeps and slapping snares go on in that signature DFA style that I really like. [Video: Canyons - [...]
Continuing with the theme of all things Australia, late last night the new Hole in the Sky promo landed in my lap. From the same Australian label that brought you that killer Jacques Renault release JD covered a while ago , Hole in the Sky presents Tortoiseshell , a group of lads hailing from Sydney. They list their influences as Talking Heads, A Certain Ratio etc. etc. The Canyons produced debut single "This Girl" is simply bliss and a gorgeous piece of work. I have here the Canyons dub for anyone who wants to play it out. I [...]
Con el mundial de futbol a la vuelta de la esquina,en The Fader decidieron que no habia mejor forma de homenajearlo que a través de la musica; así que en union con Nike decidieron publicar una serie de mixes que representaran, de la mejor manera, la musica que hace que cada continente baile . Todo completado con el rodaje de un documental durante el mundial, y culminado con un concierto en Soweto el día 16 de junio en el que actuaran artistas de toda África. Así que aqui los tenemos: Representando a Ámerica del [...]

As previously reported , Tame Impala 's debut LP Innerspeaker hits shops on June 8th via Modular . Now they hit us with this nerve-rattling new video. All I have to say is poor doggy. The "Solitude is Bliss" single features remixes from Canyons and Midnight Juggernauts.
Photo by Drew Reynolds Here are three such-a-beautiful-day reasons to barrel roll on over to the Bottom Lounge this evening... 1. Nothing says sunshine like sweeping melodies over electro-pop beats, so there's no better time to catch Brooklyn's The Depreciation Guild . Their music is strangely intoxicating, but still manages to stay focused unlike a number of today's electro-pop, nu-techno bands that like to self indulge. But not Depreciation Guild who seem to have struck a perfect balance between pop and anti-pop. [...]
Negativ Magick are back in form with another round of perfected death disco edits. I never thought Id hear a club ready Primitive Calculators track, but here it is. Sweaty, thumping, fleshy beats beneath hard visceral vox; this is just fucking mean. Catch these guys supporting Canyons at New Guernica this coming Thursday (1st April) here in Melbourne. See you there. MP3: Primitive Calculators - Pumping Ugly Muscle (Negativ Magick Edit) MP3: Death in June - Foretold (Negativ Magick Edit)

Modular sent over this laid back, smooth '80s-sax-laden psych-house remix from Aussies Tame Impala + Canyons. Tame Impala's new album Innerspeaker is out later this year on the label, and it sounds like it could be pretty great. mp3: Tame Impala :: 41 Mosquitos (Canyons mix) ****** elsewhere: ****** click through for more...
NYC's Jacques Renault (one half of Runaway) can do no wrong at the moment. Every mix/track he has dropped in the last few years hasnt seemed to tire in my ears yet. Favicon is his new release on Canyon's own label, 'Hole In The Sky Recordings', and its four tracks of pure disco edit gold. This is going to be on heavy rotation for a while. MP3: Jacques Renault - Norman's Fire
i know i know phoenix have been remixed to death but i thought the album was that good that this remix needed to be posted to show off the skills of a duo from the south of sydney where the talent is not that great bar a few exceptions, polographia have just started to dj in the sydney scene, they dj music from the ever growing nu-disco genre with productions along the same lines drawing influences from canyons , holy ghost and the like. the boys say they have an ep [...]
Brought to my attention by Canyon's latest BIS mix , Australia's own DFA/Modular signing, The Canyons , have remixed Tame Impala yet again. MP3: Tame Impala - 41 Mosquitoes Flying in Formation (Canyons 41 Mojitos Poolside Dub) (requested to be removed) Still on the topic of Modular, one of their latest signings, Adelaide three-piece disco-outfit The Swiss , have just released their first EP titled "Bubble Bath", available right now, digitally, on iTunes (the 123 is released Feb 18th).

Modular Canyons & The Juan Maclean 2010 should bring some new and exciting things in the world of indie electro and waves are already being made by Canyons who are set to release new material on Modular this year.

Just a few other recent faves from 09 that I feel I should mention. I don't think it's necessary to continue the DFA overload by blabbing on about Spaghetti Circus, Fire Eyes, the 45:33 remixes, Bye Bye Bayou etc etc so I'll just leave that and expect that everybody is on the same page. What has been getting a lot of hype in small circles though is the Golf Channel stuff, one of the finest of the many little boutique edits labels popping up. The Liza / Penny 12" in particular is remarkably good, I only recently got [...]
