The Jam Drop is back after quite the long hiatus and we apologize for that. Hope everyone has been enjoying the rest of what PB&J has to offer. As for me, I've been lost in The Magician's famed Magic Tapes for the past two months. Anyway, as the school year rolls on and I'm getting settled back [...]
A lot has been said about the Frenchie progressive DJ/producer Norman Doray , but I feel like I never see much from him. I'm extremely excited about this bootleg because it exemplifies his beautiful progressive style. He teams up here with the Swede Albin Myers to bring us this awesome awesome bootleg of Chicane's class track "Don't Give Up". Download this track for free on the Soundcloud link below. Thanks to Anton at BeatMyDay for sending this over. Enjoy -bb Chicane - Don't Give Up (Norman Doray & [...]
I'm loving me some Norman Doray and Albin Meyers on this hungover Sunday. Our friends at Beat My Day released this exclusive bootleg for its fans and we liked it so much, we had to get in on the action also. Norman first utilized this track at the infamous Sunburn Fest in Goa back in 2009 - it seems he loves to leave u hanging. We are still waiting for his oft teased Trilogy track with Arno Cost and Laidback Luke . We love the progressive house [...]
First dropped at 20092s Sunburn Festival in Goa, Normay Doray and Albin Meyer's "Don't Give Up" bootleg is finally available for free download thanks to our friends at Beat My Day. The mix breathes new life into the 2000 Chicane and Bryan Adams classic, giving its mellow groove some much-needed energy. Have a listen below and download the bootleg here . Via : Beat My Day
Bit surprised I haven't posted anything by Mt Eden before. The NZ duo of Jesse Cooper and Harley Rayner make dubstep/dnb. They're pretty prolific on Soundcloud but with good quality control, lots of free downloads and little stuff to buy. Here's three downloadable tracks. First a remix of Imogen Heap's Closing In . This has a dnb sound similar to High Contrast's remix of Adele in not trying to have beats too hard for the vocals. Although unlike High Contrast most of the vocals are removed and what's left is pushed far into the background, leaving something [...]
This week's Flashback Fridays is a remix from Mischa Daniels on the mashup "Bruised Water ". " Bruised Water " is a song by dance artist Chicane . Its mashup of Natasha Bedingfield 's song, " I Bruise Easily " with his own song, " Saltwater ". The track was released back in 2008 along with remixes from Adam K and Chicane . This track will give you goose bumps every time you'll hear it. The vocals and instrumentals compliment each other so well in this track. Happy Friday! [...]
Era Extraña, Neon Indian Mom + Pop, USA Rating: 85 by Blanca Méndez When I first heard that Alan Palomo would be retreating to Iceland to record the follow-up to Psychic Chasms , my mind immediately leapt to images of Iceland's breathtakingly sparse beauty, of endless stretches of desolate landscapes, icy waters, and, of course, fjords. (Fjords!) I wondered what this would mean for Neon Indian's sound, one that on Psychic Chasms was the opposite of the images that the mention [...]
"In the dismal future, we'll all be affixed to our respective wires and screens, dreaming about being virtually with the one that you love." This is the hypothermic premise in Neon Indian's new clip for the dazzling single, "Polish Girl." In his review of the song (which is now open for download ), Jean-Stephane Beriot referred to Neon Indian as a "synth-groove stylist," and music video director Tim Nackashi not only agrees but also explodes Alan Palomo's affliction for romanticizing synthetics. Whether it's the video's nonchalant production design or Palomo's enormous eyes breaking the fourth wall, this dystopian and [...]

Euphoria and imagination has just been delivered in equal quarters, as bootleg-track-power moves steadily through a king size beast of a bonafide melodic dance anthem. Inpetto vs. Ruet Orchestra give out a glorious sunshine-uplift that doesn't stop dazzling and once again proving that they are more than just a sum of their parts. Tremendous!

Chicane. Legend. Longevity. Hero. That is why all or any of those fly-by-nights on previous and forthcoming Pop Idols should take serious note and realize that the only the REAL forms of success come from when folk actually remember who you are five, ten or fifteen plus years after you've had your one year's peak of overly compacted "success." Chicane has humbly influenced many; inspired millions; and continues onwards today on the very same spark and enthusiasm that brought him to the forefront back in the Nineties. (Just note Robyn's own career journey too, if you [...]

Don't call it a Come Back...Actually, that's the song name...Nevermind. Download it. 1) Come Back (Sidney Samson Remix) -Chicane ***FUEGO*** I'd say my favorite aspect of this song is how it starts out as an epic vocal house track, the type of track that becomes a focal point of one's set...Then, out of nowhere, subtle hints of Dutch House. Then, before you know it, presto, Dutch Banger. There are a lot of ways to drop this track, you have to [...]
Many of us know Chicane for sweet vocals and entrancing harmonies, but who really is Chicane? The answer is Nick Bracegirdle, a producer, writer, and performer-but not a DJ. Sticking to powerhouse production team-ups, Nick has worked with a wide range of artists spanning Sir Tom Jones, Natasha Bedingfield, Cher, Frankie Goes to Hollywood, Bryan Adams, Jewel, Gary Numan, and BT. Nick also performs live with a band with about four others, and while not technically a DJ, Nick is more of the musical glue or hub guiding the development of sound from multiple collaborators. Chicane's forth [...]
Chicane New Album 'Giants' and New Single "Middle Distance Runner" Featuring Owl City's Adam Young 'Giants' album released 2nd August through Modena Records It's been some fourteen years (if you include Disco Citizens tracks) since Nick Bracegirdle arrived as the 'God of the Ibiza anthem'. Some records are of their time and stay there, some somehow form a bedrock in musical consciousness, "Offshore" certainly has done that: millions would have heard the track and most likely not know [...]
Considering how regular they were when I began this project, I am aware of how infrequent the 1000 Minutes Posts are becoming. For those of you who have noticed this (I was shocked and incredibly flattered to actually receive a couple of emails in regards to this), I apologise. There hasn't been a particular reason for it and I will definitely still finish the project, even if it takes me five years - Anyone who actually knows me knows about my obsession with lists, ordering and musical association so they can vouch for this. Todays entry will be [...]

Above..The Royal family. They probably wouldn't like this post.. Hopefully you will though.. I've given you a couple of things I've stumbled across already this week, but here's a comprehensive roundup for you. Regular FPK visitors may be familiar with the work of Adam Smith , who's superb remix of Hot Chip was featured here recently. In addition to that, he has also remixed Florence & The Machine 's megahit You Got The Love, with a lot of synths! You can catch more of Adam's work on his [...]
