What is it with bloody A-Ha? As a youngster I shunned their immaculately-coiffured expensively-animated synth pop, and have remained baffled by its appeal ever since. Others appear to have been more perceptive. I couldn't help but notice earlier this year that Fennesz had covered their "Hunting High And Low" as part of the [...]
At the end of last year/beginning of this year. London's electronic music lovers saw 2 of our best, most idealic clubs close. Well, everybodys favourite Central London venue The End is to re-open in May some five months after its previous owners closed the club, apparently permanently. The three room space is being renamed 'The Den & Centro' though otherwise appears to be exactly as it was, judging by press releases issued this week for NY-LON's launch party on Saturday May 2. Hailing the venue's 'spring-loaded dance floor, unique DJ friendly booth in the middle of [...]

What a little over-produced soulless tune. But, I like it now.

"Desperation is like stealing from the Mafia: you stand a good chance of attracting the wrong attention." - Doug Horton
Sexy, no?We know the usual "Missed Connections" we feature on here are between two humanoid-types at a local club, desperately star-crossed in spite of the electricity flowing between them. But we don... Continue reading "Dear Mystery Person Who Got High in My Car Last Night" >

Ecco finalmente svelati i "misteri" sul nuovo album dei Black Eyed Peas dal titolo "The E.N.D". Questa che vedete qui accanto è la nuova copertina del disco: la più eccentrica è proprio Fergie che come al solito mostra tutta la sua voglia di mettersi in gioco. Nel complesso la cover risulta molto piacevole. L'album, in uscita a giugno, consterà di 15 tracce dal sapore pop'n'b in cui si spera che la vocalist del gruppo faccia sentire di più la sua voce rispetto a ciò che è stato proposto col primo singolo [...]

Much to my surprise, the Black Eyed Peas single "Boom Boom Pow" is gaining a lot of ground making some waves in the charts. Now, it is a comeback single and people are hungry by anything fergelicious, but that s no excuse to buy that single. It's #1 now on the billboard charts. Maybe it's a very late grower. The song comes from their supposed farewell album titled The E.N.D. , which ironically is an abbreviation for "the energy never dies." To me, it's just another slap together project the BEP worked on to end it smoothly and cash [...]

i see newspapers and magazines shut down/go bankrupt and I wonder when blogs will die when will HRO end? should HRO have ended _ years ago? When will all of the memes in the world be blogged? What happens when the river of meme runs dry? What happens when bloggers decided 2 unplug from the internet? what happens if ur favourite blogger gets in a car crash 1 day, and u never hear from him/her again? Everything dies-even humans Every thing has a natural life. Trends/fads/websites [...]

So this turned up at my door the other day. Found a few reactions from a few well known faces about the track on the net too... L Garnier: "Hey there Fuck this is gooooOOOD u can be sure that i will hammer this everywhere Stunning stuff Merciiiiiii" Laurent Claude Vonstroke: "the riva starr doors remix.....yer losing it" Steve Lawler: "fucking love this! Xxx nice work.." Jesse Rose: "The riva starr doors mix is massive, got the biggest reaction of the night... Going on Stef...." The Doors - The End (RS ReTrip) (Mediafire)

A few years back Zinc decided, to hell with D n B, I'm going to make and DJ great bass heavy, krunkin, crack house. It was a shame for some but a massive plus for others, as every set I've heard and witnessed since his progression away from the genre has been brilliant and generally embraced the best of what new bassline, wonky, fidget house has to offer. BUT being the Jungle/Drum and Bass legend that he is, it would have been pure negligence if he didnt show up to the LAST EVER drum 'n bass party [...]

This is the end Beautiful friend This is the end My only friend, the end Of our elaborate plans, the end Of everything that stands, the end No safety or surprise, the end Ill never look into your eyes...again Can you picture what will be So limitless and free Desperately in need...of some...strangers hand In a...desperate land Lost in a roman...wilderness of pain And all the children are insane All the children are insane Waiting for the summer rain, yeah Theres danger on the edge of town Ride the kings highway, baby [...]

Reports are surfacing that Samantha Ronson and Lindsay Lohan have allegedly split. I guess Lindsay's lesbian stint is over. Apparently, Lindsay Lohan tried to enter a club where Ronson was DJing and the guards would not let her in. This was a request from Samantha Ronson. So, Ronson dumped her I am guessing. Or was she trying to reconcile. I have no clue. Now Lindsay releases a statement that they broke up. She must want her revenge or something. Love is suffering. I don't know how Lohan will be as hetero again. Boring, maybe.

se ha armado todo un alboroto por este edit de Riva Starr del clasico de los Doors, la disquera que tiene los derechos de todas sus canciones le ha pedido que retire, queme y elimine de la faz de la tierra esta infamia, pero el buen Riva, se lo regalo al mundo y ahora todos podemos cerrar nuestros sets de la mejor manera posible, asi que apaguen las luces, eleven los yesqueros y celebren el fin. The Doors - The End (Riva Starr Re-Trip)
It's by no means an essential piece to the quintessential rock band, nonetheless the harpsichord,dating from the 1500s and the predecessor to the piano, served a distinct sound on plenty of essential late sixties records, earning it "classic" status, and the first acoustic spot in our ongoing series on classic gear. The first difference you'll notice from the piano is the inverted keys. The black...

"Trouble happens every time the Brooklyn-based crew of Drop The Lime , AC Slater , Star Eyes and The Captain get together to throw legendary dance music events. Bass is everything, whether the backbone of releases on the T & B label or the driving force of their ballistic, sweat-inducing DJ sets- all timeless rhythms, unforgettable melodies, and surprise after speaker-quaking surprise. If you've been missing the raw energy that made electronic music so exciting in the first place, this is where it's been hiding. Trouble & Bass crew are the DJ's [...]
I love the webernets. Our friends at The End Records put together a quick promo vid for Karl Sanders' (of Nile) new solo album using the nifty website Xtra Normal. My curiosity was peaked, so I tried my hand at making my very own Xtra Normal video, and this is what came out: Make your own [...]

Yeah! What a month we had last month! Traveling to and fro, stumbling on some of the most unique musical creatures that could pull themselves from the primordial sludge of cyberspace . . . damn! I love the internet! Get yourselves seated, Waveriders . . . we're about to do it all over again. The flight plan looks to have us cruising through France (what a surprise), Austria, Sweden, Norway, Canada, and then back to the friendly, or menacing (depends how hard you squint) faces of the folks in the good ole U.S. of A. So, we hope you have [...]
