Dandi Wind , the project of vocalist Dandilion Wind (also 1/2 of Fan Death) and producer Szam Findlay, has been quiet ever since the release of their excellent LP Yolk Of The Golden Egg back in 2008. The duo is back now and they uploaded three new songs to their Soundcloud , supposedly taken from a new EP titled Fresh Humiliation . mp3 Dandi Wind - Las Feminicidas mp3 Dandi Wind - Peripheral Visions mp3 Dandi [...]
K.K. Rampage's "Song a Week" project Damn, what a trip! It's a pity I haven't been able to post everything for you, everything that those plug-ugly KK Rampage-ers (whose family tree includes Lost Robot, Dandi Wind, ntelos and, I think, ... Continue reading
Before taking time out with her side-project Fan Death, Canadian artist Dandilion Wind Opaine was working with boyfriend Szam Findlay in their apocalyptic electro-punk band, Dandi Wind.With noises echoing the likes of Peaches, Sexy Sushi and Bjork (whenever she is somewhat accessible), the duo carved out a sonic boom that manages to be tame and beautiful, while at the same time punching you in
Suicide Sundaes – stop your grinnin’ and drop your linen. Every Sunday electblake of Earmilk will bring you the weeks dirty servings, and some old favorites through a throwdown-throwback to simpler times. A time when bangers were big, remixes were bigger, the bassline bled, and we didn’t care about anything as long as came in kicking and left screaming. To hell with sketchy sunday, we want to shove another dragon down the hole. Its Sunday. Cyanide in hand - this week comes in with some local (Toronto) friends SposhRock in [...]
There are those that are often too lazy to do any research that will happily slate the likes of Kap Bambino, DAT Politics, Sexy Sushi and Dandi Wind (etc...) for throwing together copy and paste versions of Crystal Castles, but the truth is rarely so simple. Like genres everywhere, it is too easy to point out some generic artist and assume that all within its meagre artistic walls suffer their
Holy shit I'm tired. And by that I mean "here's another Spotify monthly playlist from the grandiose ears of self" or some other shite like that...

It's been far too long since I've heard from Fan Death , the partially Canadian disco revival outfit who won my heart last year with " Veronica's Veil ," one of the sleekest and most satisfying pop tunes I've had the pleasure of hearing in recent years. Fortunately, the band's disappearance has yielded results, as Fan Death are due to release both an EP and a full length record soon. Though no release dates have been announced, the band has debuted a brand-new video for "Reunited," another fantastically fun (and slightly ominous) disco [...]

Fan Death , a three piece from Vancouver, BC, played their first ever New York show last night at Le Royale and tore through their set in just over thirty minutes. When they announced to the fired-up crowd that the next song would be their last, the response was a disappointed “Awwwww.” Dandi Wind, the raven haired lead singer asked the crowd with a smile, "Did someone just say 'Fuck you assholes?' We only have this many songs." They then broke into their finale We'll Be Back When the Money's Right, which was not only their [...]

Well it's about time I got going on this blog. Its my first post so go easy on me. First up we are about to go crazy with the Scatterblog thingy so keep tuned for constant posting by Paz, Scatters and myself. I'm going to start things off with some news about our new night "COKE ON A NIPPLE" in Melbs. It's the first in a bunch of "Scatterblog Presents" nights we will be hosting to try and push the good sh!t on you all. This time around its on the hip hop tip, but don't be mistaken, [...]
In the six years I've lived in Chicago, I've seen the nightlife landscape explode. Through all the twists and turns, there was one event that always stood out from the rest and embraced individuality over trends. Attended by a cast of colorful characters and pansexual partiers, and never afraid to push the envelope and embrace the artistic and Avant-garde, OUTDANCED was a refreshing take on a nightlife scene which was growing more homogeneous by the day. For the past two and a half years, every Tuesday night, Scott Cramer and Jillian Valentino [...]
Twin Crystals - "Two Girls" from Salazar on Vimeo . Dandilion Wind Opaine of Dandi Wind fame just finished up the video direction for "Two Girls" by Vancouver's Twin Crystals . Twin Crystals was easily one of my favorite acts at one of my favorite nights of SXSW 2008. Twin Crystals - "Spell on You"
When a friend of mine was looking through my records last week, he came to a halt when he arrived at the Dandi Wind Sleeping Beauty 7”, which features a bathing-suit-clad-but-certainl y-not-tacky Dandi on the front cover, and a nuggety yet sweet-looking dog on the back. Needless to say my friend didn’t share my enthusiasm relating to how much I just wanted to folic on the beach with that dog and maybe climb a tree with it The Breed-style (except this time the dog wouldn’t be inexplicably homicidal) but he did put the record in the “I’m borrowing [...]
What is the hood like in Brighton, England? I've never been there, so for all I know, it could be the UK's version of Compton, but everytime I think of the getto in England (outside of London), I can't help but think of Ali G from the West Stanes Massive. Respekt! Getting back on topic, South Central have been residents of the blog world for quite some time now, and still have yet to put out anything more than an EP. Many consider them to be amongst the ranks of the modern era nu-rave/electro elite along with Justice , [...]
Les centres commerciaux ne m’ont jamais réussi. Je déteste ces endroits - et je crois que c’est réciproque. L'autre jour, nous avions décidé, Sara et moi, d’acheter un nouveau four, pour changer le tas de merde rouillé et grillé que nous avait laissé le proprio. Nous sommes donc allés, en voiture, dans l’une de ces cathédrales [...]

Dandi Wind (Photo by John Londono) Starting off my first post, I would like to thank Nick for the opportunity to post on Redthreat. Ok lets kick things off shall we? Lately I’ve been really in to a band from Montréal call Dandi Wind. Originally, the first song that got my attention was "Balloon". [...]
Following Nek's and Luke's lead in the search for a potential wife, I've found mine in the tiny firecracker that is Dandilion Wind Opaine Schlase. If I happened to be a boy. Who happened to like girls. For now she'll just have to be the subject of my very massive girl-crush. Dandi doesn't really have to do much to render herself fascinating to those of us who didn't grow up next door to a giant replica igloo, but never the complacent creature, she's just achieved something that, at this stage, the majority of her [...]
