Recently two of the funkiest boys in the game teamed up to drop one double groovy EP. Treasure Fingers is a name that's been obliterating charts with his singles all year. Malente on the other hand has kept it relatively cool lately. The EP is titled Crusaders and features two tracks. While the second track, Au Revue, was really nothing special, the title track, Crusaders, is some dance-floor wrecking filthy funk. You can clearly pick out which parts are from Malente and Treasure Fingers which is always half the fun of collaborations. It's the perfect mash of a smooth Treasure [...]
When you're hunting around the edges for very new music you come across a lot of utter crap. That's the price we pay for setting ourselves up as your filtering service. Please don't think that we come across bands this awesome every time we look, we don't, it takes an eye-wateringly long time to wade through the myriad of bullshit pretenders before we stumble upon diamonds cut this way. And this is truly one of those diamond finds. You're going to love them. Your friends are going to love them. NME is going to slap them all over their radar [...]

Can't believe 2011 was 4 days ago. Missing it already. In 2011, Winters were warm. In 2012, winters are cold. That's enough for me to want to go back. I fancy myself to be a concert photographer. More specifically, I fancy myself to be an Iphone concert photographer. It's a rare breed. Sure, a lot of people take snapshots of concerts with their phones during a show, but how many of them use them for their music blog? Not many. Those other people just look through their albums one day, wonder 'what is this?' and [...]
![[Ones To Watch] – Introducing – Jagwar Ma](http://cdn.elbo.ws/posts/3939154_lg.jpg)
Tweet Something a little different on LBYB today: a feature about jaguars! No, obviously not. That said, I do probably know more about jaguars than I do about the actual subject of the post, Jagwar Ma . Like Martyn of Pinemarten , the gentleman behind it prefers to remain largely anonymous. What I can tell you is that his real name is Jono Ma; that he spends his time between Berlin and Australia; and that you probably [...]

In the wide realm of '90s TV shows for kids, with the limited acting skills and ridiculous plots, Goosebumps was one of the most memorable - more so for the awful acting than anything else. One of its episodes shares the same name as this next band, who make spines tingle in a completely different
Okay, angry mob of the Toad readership, do your very worst. Today, as promised, is the day we vote on our five favourite songs of the year so there will be no foolish questions as per usual, but what there will be is the chance for you to write down your favourite songs, in no particular order, and I will count them up and find out which songs the readers of Toad have enjoyed the most this year. There aren't any real rules, although the song should have been released in 2011. And also, just to help me [...]
Unless you're getting excited about the X-Factor winner's inevitable Christmas release, or happy to step on the band-wagoning, anti-Cowell, counter-single, usually of something equally as pointless, then you can consider December something of graveyard when it comes to discovering new music. Now that the BBC Sound Of 2011 Poll has been announced, most record labels, PR firms, or self-promoting artists are now going to wait until the new year before pushing any serious, new contenders our way. It's understandable, as Christmas retail is for the mass market and the various commentators on music also need holidays too. It's [...]
Chad Valley is throwing a couple of parties in London before the end of the year with his Blessing Force colleagues, expect Chillwave, Wonky Pop, eclectic Indie-Electro and a bunch of people not caring much what people think of them. Details here . As a warm up to the shows, check out this reMix of Chad Valley's 'Fast Challenges', from his 'Equatorial Ultravox' EP, by Foals ' Edwin Congreave. Keeping some of the Chillwave vibe Congreave twists the reverb heavy sounds into some kind of weird Experimental Deep House monster [...]

Böse Zungen behaupten ja, dass der alternative Indie-Markt in Berlin nichts mehr hergibt. Nach dem Aufstieg von Bonaparte , Bodi Bill oder I Heart Sharks wäre alles so ziemlich ausgereizt... Ein Trugschluss! Denn tatsächlich entwickelte sich seit 2010 ein kleines Kosmos an verschiedenen Künstler, die sich untereinander stets zur Seite stehen und sich gegenseitig mit Achtungserfolgen schmücken können. Eine dieser Acts ist Grey Television . Das Indie/Noise-Quintett kann vor allem auf eine beeindruckende Live-Vita zurückblicken: Support für Friendly Fires , Foals oder These New Puritans . 2012 [...]
Creo que Chad Valley es uno de los tipos que ha recibido un buzz abismal por todo el mundo de los blogs en esta ultima parte del año con el lanzamiento de su EP y con algunas otras cosas que ha estado realizando entre las que obviamente se encuentran algunos remixes pero tambien, remixes que le han hecho a el otras personas como este que les vengo a presentar a continuacion que, la verdad, yo ni me esperaba que esto fuera a aparecer y mucho menos que fuera a sonar a esto que estan por escuchar. Pues bueno, [...]
Edwin from Foals has produced this stellar remix of "Fast Challenges" by Chad Valley. It's like.... deep house, Detroit via France. Lush, and wildly romantic. > CHAD VALLEY > DOWNLOAD | Chad Valley - Fast Challenges (Foals remix) Posted by Celebrity Sex Tape.
Chad Valley : Fast Challenges (Edwin ' Foals ' Congreave Mix) - MP3 MP3
We simply cannot consider what Foals , or Bloc Party , or The Libertines would have sounded like if they weren't from the UK. It's just impossible to imagine isn't it? Totally impossible. There's something especially British about them. You can say the same thing for lots of bands through history. The Smiths simply couldn't come from San Francisco could they? What about The Specials , or Metronomy , or Roni Size , or Radiohead ? No chance, they're all very, very British. However, they also sound very different from [...]
Sometimes you need useless comparisons. It's a start, after all, naming those things; you, a pattern recognizing machine built for solid navigation. Beyond the savageries of its alliteration, Coastal Cities' stunning new single, "Think Tank", a precocious and explosive offering, will feel both very new and achingly familiar. The easiest footnotes are early Bloc Party, but somehow more juvenile
