No sooner have we looked to northwestern Spain and to next month's Primavera Sound than we're back in Barcelona – at least musically speaking – as we turn to next month's Sónar . The one and indeed only International Festival of Advanced Music and New Media Art this year commemorates its 20th anniversary, and to celebrate it boasts a line up of utmost refinement pooled from the spheres of electronica and organica alike. As with our every Fest Bests feature, we were unable to include everyone we're restively awaiting over in Cataluña and as such the [...]
Always up for a bit of something from the wonderful Soundhog. A Kraftwerk cover to see me off to bed sounds just fine. Free download. Ben explains " Ok, so a fairly straight Kraftwerk cover isn't the most interesting thing to do in 2013, I agree. However there is a good reason for it. Some friends of mine up in Scotland put on a night where people were playing 'werk tracks totally live, which was set up as a response to a similar event in Cardiff, which was set up as a 'consolation' to the 99.99999% of fans who didn't [...]

The detrimental flipside to the forging of a USP distinctive as that accredited to Brooklyn label Captured Tracks is that you can foreseeably begin to restrict your horizons. That's to say that in honing in on indie-pop vibe indebted to grunge, garage and the oneiric in equal measure, it could then become kinda difficult to escape the confines of that particular, if particularly variegated musical kaleidoscope. Though doing away with convention as is so often the wont of Mike Sniper et al., and thus bringing some monochromic variety to the roster are this Portland, Oregon pairing comprising synth wunderkind [...]

Our good friend and up-and-coming Aussie house producer Sondrio , who's very first original All In, Black we premiered a few months back, has just put out an incredible new remix of Kraftwerk's Tour De France Étape 2 – his favorite track off the 2003 album. His take, rather than fully transforming the original, brilliantly builds upon its backbone of smooth beats and deep vocals with a bright, and dare we say sexy, house vibe that renders it irresistible. This is exactly the type of ace work we've come to expect from him. In addition [...]

But like many popular bands of the '80s, they've suffered from being trapped in that time period [...]
