I'm currently listening to the lovely music of Rena Jones via the Solipsistic Nation podcast. Cello, violin and other strings backed by delicate electronic beats is sure going down smooth right now. I highly recommend checking this episode out. I'm a regular listener of this eclectronica (<- get it? eclectic + electronica) podcast and would encourage you to subscribe to the feed and add a weekly dose of great music to your routine. continue Posted in Audio, Eclectic, Electronica, Podcast

As evidenced by several posts in the last couple months, there are very few things floating in the blogosphere that have hit my ears quite like Dan Auerbach's album Keep It Hid . In fact, "When The Night Comes", the centerpiece of the set that follows, will be featured prominently at my wedding reception later this month. Here's his set on KCRW's Morning Becomes Eclectic from earlier this year. I love it when the people in charge are also big fans. Take a listen. Enjoy!!! Dan [...]

Just a quick reminder that our favourite Canadian / French turbo folk prog punk husband & wife duo Vialka will be playing live today in Peyote , Istanbul. I was thoroughly hooked on Vialka's amusing melodies and energic rhyhtms on their " Curiosities of Popular Customs " album and after 3 years I still think that their cabaret-like concert and bizarre music is unmatched. You can buy their music from indietorrent , check more on their own site (with lots of freebies) but the best would be to see them live. They're modern day gypsies travelling [...]

via oursoundtracks.com This mix coming from the ever so wonderful, changing the world through sound machine, dublab . GIVE UP - Stop Dancing and Cry is a dublab sad, slow dance party. J. Mendez aka Silent Servant , a frequent dj at the night before moving out of LA, dropped this one for dublab a while back, and I'm bringing it to you all now. On one of my trips back home I made it out to one of those nights - a tear jerker. This mix is not necessarily SLOW, but could [...]

To herald it's arrival of The Strange Dreams of Paul White , Paul has kindly put together an exclusive FACT Mix, one which is one of our favourites to date, and certainly the most eccentric (check out the tracklisting below). It features tracks by Todd Rundgren, Eek-A-Mouse, Zodiac and umpteen new and previously unreleased productions by White himself.

You may have surmised, from the title of this mix, that Boy in Static 's contribution to the XLR8R Podcast has a little something to do with the Bay Area, but the S.F.-based indie-pop duo of Alexander Chen and Kenji Ross was nice enough to pass along a few words on each track in East Bay to Back Bay . "Kenji and I have been fortunate to become friends with some very talented folks over the past few years," explains Chen. "There's a personal story behind each track here." [ continue ..] [...]

coma are two twentysomething dj/producers from that town of boundless creativity, cologne. their debut 123 on firm records found love from such heavy hitters as superpitcher, sascha funke and tobias thomas who was moved to describe them thus: "coma are new rave and old-school techno, 80s pop and 2k-modernity in a deep hug. coma gives the right answer to the wrong hypes and new influences, voices and feelings to electronic dance music from germany." brilliant!

via www.xlr8r.com Meanest Man Contest might be known for making hip-hop and leftfield electronic music, but when we approached the duo and asked them to curate the next installment of the XLR8R Podcast, they gave us a pleasantly surprising mix that goes above and beyond the word "eclectic." How eclectic? Well, there's one of the duo's own tracks, remixed by producer Touane. Then comes leftfield hip-hop from DOOM and Boom Bip, old-school rock tunes from cult bands like The Idle Race and The Wirtschaftswunder, lots of soul from [...]
