Photo by Igor Siwanowicz [ Ojo de Apolo ] ( buy vinyl ) While Jorge Cortés's Ojo de Apolo label may not get the kind of press another renowned Chilean label garners, it has slowly been picking up steam by moving in an entirely different direction. Cortés's approach stems from a conscious effort to reach out beyond the South American country's small house scene and tap into a global network of other like-minded artists. But maybe more importantly is [...]

Marco Niemerski mejor conocido como Tensnake, lanzó a finales de septiembre su más reciente compilación titulada Tensnake In The House. Esta compilación forma parte de la serie de colecciones que publica el sello Defected Records con distintos artistas y tal vez es uno de sus mejores aciertos ya que con sus 27 tracks divididos en 2 cd`s Tensnake selecciona el sonido que tantas personas han
C'est la rentrée, Get The Curse a recruté. Adonis presents LATE INVITATION – The Invite, extrait du maxi « The Invite » (Mathematics – 2010) Si Rough Trade ne prenait pas soin d'indiquer une courte description sur chacun des disques qui emplissent leurs bacs, j'aurais bêtement pris celui-ci pour un (discret) retour du house-pioneer Adonis, 20 ans après sa dernière [...]

DJ Sprinkles - Grand Central Pt. I (Deep Into The Bowel of House) [See post to listen to audio] I just had a near-life experience. I meant to post something fresh and cutting edge. I'll save that for tomorrow. After days of rising temperatures and humidity, the rain finally came tonight. Riding my bike home in 25 degrees, pouring rain and a raging thunderstorm was intimidating by itself. Sending DJ Sprinkles ' Grand Central Pt. I through my headphones proved to be both slightly terrifying and surprisingly appropriate. [...]

日本在住のアメリカン ・プロデューサー Terre Thaemlitz のプロジェクト DJ Sprinkles (Mule Musiq) の新作。Cosmic Club の Hardrock Striker が主宰する Skylax Records よりリリースされてい ます。Terre Thaemlitz 名義で06年に発表した "Hush Now"、Kami-Sakunobe House Explosion K-S.H.E 名義のアルバム『Routes Not Roots』収録トラック "B2B" を収録 続きを読む

[Skylax Records] (buy vinyl tk) 10 years before Midtown 120 Blues captured hearts and blew minds, Terre Thaemlitz was already making and self-releasing house music under a variety of guises. Unlike the critically adored album, however, most of these releases slid below the radar of most house fans - not least because they lacked the distribution Mule Musiq releases enjoy. With many more ears now tuned into her particular variety of lush, political house, Thaemlitz has released the Masturjakor single with Mule and the B2B/Hush Now [...]

It is with an especially heavy heart that we inform you that our 14th podcast, a live DJ mix from DJ Sprinkles (aka the inimitable Terre Thaemlitz), is heading off to the archives. It's a loose but lovingly crafted set which had our comment section denizens scratching their heads trying to put together a tracklist, and we can say without exaggeration that it's one of our favorite podcasts in the series. Make sure to grab it before it retires this Friday, June 11th, at 10am CST.

This Friday at The Russian Bar we have Defunkt - our night of 'forward-thinking electronic music' with very special guests Joe Hart (Bloc/World Unknown) and ZNTN (Astro Lab Recordings). To try and give and idea of the music we play we've compiled this mix covering dark electronic disco, techno, acid house, new beat and synth pop. Full event details can be found here and the mix is available below for download or streaming. Beat Djs - Defunkt Mix [...]

I've found it hard to come up with something to post lately. With the amount of fantastic tracks surfacing in the first half of april, it seems that my quota was simply used up. So, what do you do? You spend some time sewing together all your favorites from April (and whatever else you may stumble upon) in a fancy new mix. This is only my second mix in just as many months so bear with me. I have had the ambition to fire up some monthly charts on here for a while, but I realized that reading [...]

"In Philosophical Explanations, (Robert) Nozick says the question of life's meaning is so important to us and leaves us feeling so vulnerable that,we camouflage our vulnerability with jokes about seeking for the meaning or purpose of life: A person travels for many days to the Himalayas to seek the word of an Indian holy man meditating in an isolated cave. Tired from his journey, but eager and expectant that his quest is about to reach fulfillment, he asks the sage, "What is the meaning of life?" After a long pause, the sage opens his eyes and says, "Life is a [...]

DJ Sprinkles - Masturjakor (Kink & Neville Watson Remix) [See post to listen to audio] I'm sick today. I'll try to avoid turning this into a diary of my well-being, but I need to post something that is easy on the ears while politely telling me to get out of bed at the same time. Had I chosen just to stay in, an obvious choice of soundtrack would be DJ Sprinkles ' Midnight 120 Blues. We need a little more drive, though. To provide that drive, here's a remix by Kink [...]
Test Tone zou Test Tone niet zijn als hij tijdens zijn eerste optreden op Eclectro niet werd bijgestaan door een fijne mengelmoes van nieuwe, verse geluiden en liefjes uit de oude doos. 2010 belooft een goed jaar te worden. 'A Nomad's Retreat' is afkomstig van Pantha Du Princes derde album, uitgebracht bij Rough Trade Records . Op ' Black Noise ', die eerder dit jaar verscheen, wordt Prince bijgestaan door andere andere Animal Collectives Noah Lennox en Tyler Pope van LCD Soundsystem . Een track die ook dit jaar al verschenen is, [...]

Motor City Drum Ensemble - Stuttgart Nights [See post to listen to audio] I have already written extensively about my love for Motor City Drum Ensemble ; how he dominated 2009 , how his Raw Cuts series blew my mind , and I've even featured him in a couple of mixes both from Savile and myself most recently. It's with good reason, though. Although I spend a great deal of my time digging through the crates of house music, I have not heard of anyone who [...]

When I bought my mixing gear, I made a promise to myself that I would record something within two weeks. Although I didn't make that deadline (today is day 16), I've managed to sew together some straight-forward house for you to enjoy. I know it's a bit rough on the ears, but I'll do my best to keep improving. Feedback and criticism is of course more than welcome. Up The Aurehill by Going Other Places on Mixcloud [...]

When DJ Sprinkles reflectively asked "What is house?", I began wondering. Although I haven't been a house music fan for long, I've seen enough to have an idea of what house music is. Terre Taemlitz answers his own question by writing off the "greeting card bullshit", and I have spent a great part of the last year unlearning most of my assumptions about house. If you had played Grosskariert to me a year ago, my reaction would have been "If this is house, I want my money back". I don't want my money [...]
