Lately i have been re-listening to this Aerplane Remix of "Circuit" from David Rubato. Besides being an amazing work vitto did here, it also symbolizes the end of Institubes . One year has passed and sometimes i feel that something is missing. I have always been fan of that label, which discovered awesome artists such as Surkin or Bobmo. I don't know what is going to be the future of many projects, but sometimes there are some "institutions" that should stay with us forever... P.S. Listen/download the entire compilation here ! [...]

Since the beginning of her career almost ten years ago, French chanteuse Camille (born Camille Dalmais) has relentlessly explored the possibilities of modern music with her innovative and unconventional songs. Her past two albums – the platinum-selling French-language breakthrough Le Fil (2005), and its beat-boxy bilingual follow-up Music Hole (2008) – pitted the Parisian performer against the percussive sounds of her own body. Camille's restless, inventive voice was perfectly enhanced by the gleeful blizzard of clicks, snaps, gulps and claps that she [...]

This has been a good year for Dipped in Dollars. From getting a mention on The Guardian, previewing Jai Paul 's album in XL's New York office, interviewing artists like Gilles Peterson , Jensen Sportag and Onra to premiering exclusive mixes by Solar Bears , Teams , and Streets Of Beige , our second year has been filled with lots of [...]

I've been revisiting some of my favorite remixes lately and I couldn't help getting re-hooked on Paris' David Rubato . His musicality and unique approach to dance music warrants more attention than he's received over the years, and his cross-remixing with noteworthy artists ( Siriusmo , Camille , Aeroplane , and Midnight Juggernauts ) speaks to his palatable sense for creation and reinterpretation. While Rubato has not been particularly active [...]

Static On The Wire (RAC Remix) - Holy Ghost (RCRDLBL Website) RCRDLBL run a pretty cool Free MP3 Of The Day Newsletter and they flung this bad boy out a few days back. It's has been working my lil'ol cars stereo quite a bit since then so thought I'd pass it on. On a side note, and I say that because I HATE! Arcade Fire. But thye have done something cool, so cool in fact its actually worth mention. [...]

Hmmm, Institubes. That line-up is something else and gets stronger every year. Chateau Marmont, Curses!, Para One, David Rubato , Midnight Juggernauts, Bobmo , Surkin, Das Glow, all under one roof! Leave some for the others, yo . Two of the above come together for this powerful yet laid-back summertime jam. Super-vocoded, chopped samples get to grips with classic, flanging Detroit synths, and a crisp percussive slap keeps it all in check. No, it's not particularly new. But neither are you. David Rubato - Institubes Express 999 (Bobmo [...]

I've listened to a lot of music in my day but when it's all said and done I still come back to Michael Jackson's Thriller as my favorite album of all time. The reasons are endless but it's mainly because of the vibe and energy Quincy Jones was able to capture in those records. The care, authenticity and quality of that album has yet to be matched and it will be a very difficult task to surpass it. That said, I thought I'd post David Rubato's 1998 gem Circuit for exactly the same reason [...]

Espacio profundo 9 Deep Inside es el título de esta maravillosa promo firmada por David Rubato , uno de los chicos favoritos del sello Institubes . Aparte de armarse de peña housera -6 remezclas acompañan- la original brilla por sí misma: bajos enormes, vocales diva-house de las que molan, arreglos que marcan la diferencia. A más de uno el tema le parecerá una horterada, pero como te pille, no te lo quitas de la cabeza en una semana. Mínimo David Rubato - Deep Inside [...]

I try to keep the blog as non-regional as possible, but every once in a while, you have to make an exception. The STRØM Festival takes over Copenhagen this week with plenty of parties and major artists coming to town. If you're in town I can't recommend it enough. I'm especially looking forward to seeing Aeroplane give a DJ set while on what will hopefully be a sunny friday night. Should be beautiful in more than one way. Other acts worth checking out are Flying Lotus, Mondkopf, When Saints Go Machine & The Field. [...]

With my wisdom teeth out I've pretty much been sitting around and watching episodes of Anthony Bourdain: No Reservations because there is no better show on TV. For a while now I realize I've been listening to musicians whose songs/remixes tend to peak out at over 6 or 7 minutes, which is nice when you want to just relax for an hour, but lately I'm burning out on long songs. Belgium duo Aeroplane has been a staple for me and it's easy to see why artists like A-Trak called Aeroplane "the next big dance band to [...]

Santi White, better known as Santigold (previously Santogold ) probably needs no introduction. She released her self titled debut album last year to great acclaim, with hits such as "Creator", "L.E.S. Artistes" and "Lights Out". Not only is she showcasing her own music, but she produces and writes for various artists, such as Lily Allen , Ashlee Simpson and has had collaborations with Julian Casablancas and Pharrell . Lights Out is a song of hers that I just truly [...]

It's time, again, for me to post a number of miscellaneous tunes that have slipped through the pelski net over the last month or two. We've got growling electro, big house beats, some thumping brea kbeat, one bassline remix, a couple of minimal flavours and even a small slice of reggae-infused pop, just in time for the summer. Pelski highly recommends them all: The band currently holding the most outlandish name is London's Totally Enormous Extinct Dinosaurs. Their tunes are as quirky as their name. I posted their Foreign Beggers [...]

Life has been pretty great the past few days. Senior festivities are in full swing leading up to graduation. My trip to South Carolina was a lot of fun, and it was nice to spend time with all my friends somewhere other than New Haven. The drive down was interesting, as I left with three other friends at 11 pm and drove through the night. I barely slept and then had the morning shift from 6 to 9 am, driving through Virginia and North Carolina. By the end we were all completely loopy. We listened multiple times to a couple [...]

Photo : Tuxboard J'ai beau n'avoir rien publié depuis un bon bout de temps, je n'ai pas envie de vous parler de ce (micro) buzz qui a agité le web la semaine dernière. Waouh ! tu te rends compte, lors de l'anniversaire de Busy P au Cinespace à L.A., Thomas (Bangalter) a mixé le visage à découvert (voir ici ) ! Et même que la soirée a tourné au pugilat, Kavinsky se frittant avec des mecs qui bounçaient dans le club (des photos ici [...]

They absolutely techno dreamed the hell out of the already dreamy 'Paris' by the Friendly Fires . Throw Au Revoir Simone's vocals on that bitch and what do you get? Goosebumps Good .
