Directed by Alberto Rossini, here's a nice driving video for "Over The Edge". This track is taken from Johnny Jewel's and Nat Walker's (of Chromatics and Desire) "Symmetry - Themes For An Imaginary Film" project. It features 37-tracks of "claustrophobic cinematic bliss" and it was released back in December via Italians Do It Better. "Symmetry" isn't Jewel's score for Nicolas Refn's latest film "Drive". In case you haven't heard it yet, stream the entire release here and drive through the night. Excellent release.

We've tried them, and have to admit it - year end lists kind of suck. But then, we have a blog and we feel like we should at least try to recap the year, hopefully with a nod to the future. It's easy to gush about our favorite things, but hard to have to rank [...]
Artwork by Dalila Couto A couple weeks ago we asked our followers what were their favorite tracks of 2011. We could have done our own top, but we have decided people should tell us, because all blogs are doing their own charts. If there is any track missing, we apologize for it, but i think everyone is included. Anyway, we have also contributed with our favorites. No doubts 2011 was an excellent year. Here we only have originals, during this week we are going to blog as well all the remixes. For sure [...]
First off, Happy New Year folks. As you may have noticed, if you've been visiting the site over the holidays, the number of posts were low for obvious reasons. It's the holidays and I was... Read the rest on Speakerboxxx.com

Com os meus mais sinceros votos de um MEGA-FELIZ 2012 a todos, termino este ano com o desejo que possamos, com muita felicidade, passar por todas as estações do ano com muita alegria, paz, amor e saúde, sem que esqueçamos, apesar de toda esta situação louco-financeira, de todos os maravilhosos momentos de 2011, sem ser necessário fazer lóbi. Em jeito de despedida e terminando o balanço do
Artwork: Yannis Dragasakis La.Ga.Sta. offered its services to many weary travellers once more this year. By "following rivers" they drove "through the green" and found themselves in "English Riviera" only to come back again to our station for another refill. Taking a Friday drive down this year's memory lane, we think back on our numerous stops including among others: Our after-hours, absolutely wicked dj set in the VIP room of Melt! Festival. We might have missed Cut Copy's performance but we certainly had a blast. Shout out to T.E.E.D., Azari & III, [...]
something special by Johhny Jewel & Nat Walker as they say: - Three years in the making, Symmetry - the project that began as a conceptual tangent between Glass Candy, Chromatics, Mirage, & Desire's more abstract sides - finally sees its release this month. Themes For An Imaginary Film is two hours of claustrophobic cinematic bliss compiled for Painters, Writers, Photographers, Designers, Cruisers, Night Walkers, & Dreamers. Adrenaline drips thick like syrup across a horizon where memories become blurred scenes behind the windshield & yesterday's faces fade as the road [...]
15. Azealia Banks - 212 Anyone who thought that female fronted electro-rap had run it's course was forced to eat their metaphorical hat this year when Azealia Banks ' '2122 swiftly went viral. Like a showreel, the record demonstrated a multitude of talents - from tough as nails and filthy as hell Harlem rap, to an impressive R&B croon to a pretty aggressive battlecry. And all of this whilst delivering one of the biggest party bangers in recent memory. We're hyped to see what Azealia's Paul Epworth -produced album will sound like and with [...]
Johnny Jewel just debuted his sprawling two hour plus project SYMMETRY Themes For An Imaginary Film , which features Glass Candy and Chromatics, as well as like-minded artists Desire and Mirage. Rumor has it that this was intended to be the score for the film Drive , though Italians Do It Better have issued a statement denying the claim. Either way, this is pretty awesome. Listen to the entire score below or buy it on iTunes. SYMMETRY / THEMES FOR AN IMAGINARY FILM by [...]
Após a divulgação dos álbuns que mais me agradaram este ano e dos concertos que mais gostei em 2011, altura para divulgar a lista dos EPs/Mini-Álbuns que mais me conquistaram durante este ano. Acreditem que em 2011, dei muito mais valor a este tipo de lançamentos do que a álbuns inteiros, como aliás já havia aqui mencionado. Segue-se então a lista dos 10 mais interessantes EPs/
Johnny Jewel & Nat Walker son los tipos detras de este proyecto llamado Symmetry - Themes For An Imaginary Film el cual, basicamente se trata de un soundtrack de una pelicula que como su nombre lo dice, no existe pero que sin embargo, si fuera una pelicula real estariamos hablando de uno de los mejores soundtracks de los ultimos años. Todo el personal de Italians Do It Better esta involucrado dentro de la composicion de cada uno de los 37 tracks que aparecen aqui abajo y, si ustedes no estan taaan familiarizados con el catalogo de este sello o, tal [...]
"Symmetry is not Pop. Stripped it to its most primitive & visceral core, this is music written for picture. Your life is the film & this is the soundtrack." Here's the sprawling, atmospheric new 2-hour, 37-track imaginary film score from SYMMETRY , " the project that began as a conceptual tangent between Glass Candy, Chromatics, Mirage, & Desire 's more abstract sides ." This is allegedly not Johnny Jewel's rumored rejected (and subsequently scrapped) Drive score , although it certainly would've worked beautifully. [...]

Themes For An Imaginary Film is two hours of claustrophobic cinematic bliss compiled for Painters, Writers, Photographers, Designers, Cruisers, Night Walkers, & Dreamers.

Romantic melodies linger in the rearview [...]
2011: The Year In Rejects Part 2 STV SLV - Fireworks In The Winter (Katy Perry vs Glass Candy) Download: direct via Raptorhideout | Soundcloud This is not the first time Glass Candy has been included in our Year In Rejects selections, and we should clarify there is nothing reject-y about them. They're simply unfortunate accomplices in the questionable choices we make when choosing [...]
They're finally back again and this time they're ready to kick off the New Year in Los Angeles! Glass Candy are back not only in support of their recent album, ///BODY WORK///, but to perform a New Year's Eve show...
It's generally excepted, that when away from for an extended period from the population from which one would generally select their lovers, that all bets are off. Prison would certainly be an example…or perhaps the navy. San Francisco during the California Gold Rush of the mid 19th century would also be able to stake it's [...]
Nem sou muito fã do Glass Candy, mas resolvi postar essa faixa da dupla porque ficou, de fato, muito boa, e porque está comentadíssima nas pistas da Europa. Glass Candy é uma dupla americana formada em 1996. Sempre seguiram tendências do new wave e do disco punk, mas, ao longo dos anos, foi nítida a busca da dupla por novas sonoridades. Eles já tem uma quantidade enorme de discos. Em 2011, lançaram o EP "Warm In The Water", de onde tirei a faixa para mostrara a vocês. Se você é mais rocker, fuja dessa [...]
