The famous duo Flight Facilities released their final “decade mix” for their series of Triple J mixes today. Before you continue reading, we want you to know that isn't just a mix of classic tracks, but more importantly one of the most thoughtfully orchestrated anthologies of modern music history. For those who are unfamiliar with this ambitious project of making mixtapes that cover an entire decade, you can read more about the process on Flight Facilities’ official website . Essentially, track selection involved cross-referencing three different top music charts and ordering them in [...]
Suicide Sundaes - Stop your grinnin' and drop your linen, Sunday is back. Greg is here to bring you the week's 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. This week we have so many great tracks for you it will be hard to single out some of the best, but here it goes. First, I would like to make a special mention of [...]

We recently premiered " What A Waste, " from production duo The Flight's The Hangman EP , and now you can stream the whole four-track effort below. As befits an EP based around the tale of a young woman who is tempted from her home and murdered in the woods, the tracks share a haunting darkness that is only helped by the wavering sound of secret (so don't tell anyone yeah?) guest vocalist Keaton Henson's voice. The Hangman EP is out now, stream it in full below.
Finding new artists is easier than ever, but this creates a problem: it's harder than ever to filter through it all and keep tabs on what's really good. With so many artists popping up every day, it's impossible not to miss out on some fresh faces and new sounds. With that in mind, we'll be highlighting our favorite new acts each month. Here's the first installation of the Best New Artists feature. Kwabs From: London, England Kwabs comes with a Jessie Ware stamp of approval, and Jessie Ware seems like a trustworthy, tasteful person. In [...]
'What A Waste' is the brand new track off The Flight's forthcoming debut EP ' Hangman ', due out March 10th. With an enthralling mix of ethereal synths, far-reaching percussion and featuring special secret guest vocals that infuse with the songs haunting reality, we're presented with a chilling and intricately moving piece of music.

The Flight are a London based production duo who have written and produced for some of the music industry's biggest names, but are now stepping out of the shadows (although not too far, if the press shot above is anything to go by) with their debut EP, The Hangman . The duo of Alexis Smith and Joe Henson have crafted a concept EP of sorts, based around the tale of a young woman who is tempted from her home and murdered in the woods. The EP opens with "The Hangman" (premiered recently by Clash ), a [...]
The Flight's Hangman is the pick of the Videos that caught the Devil's eye this week. Go View The Flight Hangman
By Cat Schaupp February 08, 2013 What happens when two producers hang up their producing hats and decide to create something of their own? Well, in the case of Joe Henson and Alexis Smith , the result turns out to be something quite marvellous indeed. Having produced for some of the top names in music, and having racked up an impressive list of composing credits in television, gaming, and advertising, the London duo are now setting out as artists in their own right. Set for release on [...]
Alden Penner "Flight" Live Video
Keaton Henson has one of the few voices that will literally shake my bones based on how mind-boggling brilliant they are. On “Hangman” he provides guest vocals for East London production team The Flight , consisting of Londoners Joe Henson and Alexis Smith. What’s special about this, is we get to hear those wonderful vocals under a more mid-tempo setting, rather than his usual chilling folk. The duo provide a darkly inescapable background to let Kenson croon away in heartbreaking fashion. The creepy Tim Burton-style visuals help set the mood just right. [...]
London production duo Joe Henson and Alexis Smith have just released the first and title track from their forthcoming release as The Flight. On "Hangman", Keaton Henson guest vocals for a bone chilling re-hatch of the classic folk song "Pretty Polly". The Flight's debut Hangman EP will feature a variety of vocalists, all of which assist the duo in telling their dark perspective of the Pretty Polly story. Check out the video below and keep this new project atop your radar. The Flight [...]

1. At 58 (on December 28), Denzel Washington is still so handsome. I admire him for never playing into any kind of beefcake persona in his youth, which perhaps has allowed him to age more gracefully than most. His two romantic interests during the course of Flight may be more than 20 years his junior, but it's never glaringly obvious. He doesn't come across as a still-youthful stud or a dirty old man, and I wonder if it's because Washington looks at least 10 years younger than he is, or because for all his good looks, he's never [...]

François Truffaut once said that a great movie is the perfect blend of truth and spectacle. This is one of Robert Zemeckis' favorite quotes, and as evidenced by his staggering filmography, a guiding principle in his work. From his 1984 action-comedy Romancing the Stone onward, he has displayed an virtuosic ability to craft culture-defining megahits [...]
