NYC duo (Pretty) Girls & Lasers contacted us recently with a new remix they did for Ghostland Observatory's track "Sad Sad City" as well as a mini-mix they did called A Taste of Lasers 4 which clocks in at slightly over 10 mins. Always amazed when people can pull off mini mixes that sound good and don't feel like a sensory overload. These guys managed to pull it off nicely, plus any mix featuring Two Door Cinema Club and [...]
(Pretty) Girls and Lasers sent me some cool stuff and info that I wanna really to you. First of their monthly party has moved form Arlo & Esme to the first Thursday of each month, on May 6 th , and Kestar from Crooked Disco will be stopping by to drop a guest set, so if you leave in NYC don't miss it. Starting in June, they'll be hosting a weekly Wednesday night party at STAY in the Lower East Side which should be epic. Now to the music, they've sent over a remix of [...]
With the likes of Further, The Flaming Lips, moe., and STS9 already announced, the inaugural Nateva Music Festival has already provided many jam fans a comparable replacement for the now deceased Rothbury Music Festival. But, as it turns out, Nateva won't strictly be a ten-minute-jam-a-palooza affair. Today, the Oxford, Maine based festival, which is set to take place over Fourth of July weekend, added several well known indie bands to its 2010 bill. Included are She & Him, Passion Pit, Grizzly Bear, Drive-By Truckers, Jakob Dylan & Three Legs, and The Constellations. Ghostland Observatory, [...]

Pretty Girls & Lasers suprise with their first remix, after pumping a variety of great mixes in our hood. This time the boys with the fondness almost 90% of all men got, too, drop a synthesized and rousing workover for Texas' underrated electropunx Ghostland Observatory and their big bang Sad Sad City .

In the past twenty-four hours, I've been forced to endure a shit storm of criticism for the crap draft picks the Donkeys have gone forth in the first round of the NFL draft. I've never had a favorite team in the NFC. I've always been an AFC man myself, but I think it has come to the point where I may need to diversify and share my fandom with the Washington Redskins. My loyalty lies with Mike "the Mastermind" Shanahan, and all that he has to bring to football. Let's hope everything works for the best [...]

Over the last few weeks Ghostland Observatory has been leaving cryptic messages via their Twitter and Facebook pages and today we get a little preview of what exactly they have in the works. Well sort of. We do know that they are working under the Codename: Rondo and that they are working on their 4th album as we speak. The duo just released some photos from the studio and they are quite impressive. [ Trashy Moped ] [ Follow Ghostland Observatory on Twitter ]
thievery : ghostland : more : red rocks [sts9.com] Following up an event like 2009's sold out show at Red Rocks Amphitheatre is no easy feat. Well, we notched it.

Oh Ultra! What an experience you are. With over 40k people raging out of their minds on who knows what type of drugs, it's always an adventure of some sorts. I must say this year's Ultra was far superior to last year's. They fixed a lot of their bathroom and sanitation problems, and security was nowhere close to [...]
As many festivals as one attends, there is very little that can be done to prepare for 12 hours of music emanating from massive speakers at 130 bpm while being drenched in the South Florida sun. It may be this challenge which continues to draw record breaking numbers to Saturdays at Ultra. For the first time since expanding to two days in 2006, the event completely sold out. While this would result in unprecedented congestion at the come sundown, the wait time for those picking-up single-day tickets from will call were greatly reduced from the day before. As [...]
For nine years now, the Disco Biscuts have held their very own summer music festival. And for nine years now, the Philadelphia jam band has proven that it is as good at curating lineups as it is shelling out music. After all, for Camp Bisco 9 , the Biscuits have rounded together a lineup that is headed by LCD Soundsystem, Ween, and Thievery Corporation. (They already have like half of the U.S. festivals beat right there). Plus, acts like Girl Talk, Ghostland Observatory, Bassnectar, Pretty Lights, Major Lazer, Diplo, Aeroplane, Gui Boratto, Felix Cartel, Telepath, Future Rock, [...]

BTW, tickets for this are $9.33 this Friday at Westword and all the madness starts on June 19th. Dirty Projectors-Naked We Make It [mp3] Dirty Projectors-Hazard [...]
The Miami New Times Music Blog has the scoop on the first phase of the 2010 Ultra Music Festival lineup . The Miami-based festival has traditionally featured DJs and dance music, but they've also started to add more live bands over the last few years.

You might get talked about. NYC If you're in the rowdy, garage rock, whiskey-soaked dive bar sort of mood, the Detroit Cobras are playing the Mercury Lounge . Tickets are $25, $30 at the door. If you intend on cutting the rug, MSTRKRFT will be hitting the decks at Webster Hall . Tickets range from [...]
Creo que Ghostland Observatory son de esos actos que uno ve y nunca olvida, particularmente por el nivel de producción que pueden ofrecer en vivo. Es muy común que las bandas en directo se apoyen de unas cuantas luces para hacer más interesante el show, sin embargo los chicos de Ghostland Observatory se apoyan totalmente en su iluminación a base de laser para crear una atmosfera totalmente única en cada uno de sus shows en vivo. Recientemente estuvieron haciendo una sesión para KEXP Radio como parte [...]
