Melbourne artist and Creative Director Leif Podhajsky is big in the symmetry game.

After years and years of being an underage illegal alcoholic, today I finally step up into the big leagues and turn 21. I've been waiting my whole life for this day and now that its finally here, I'm fucking loving it! I've been dancing since 12am this morning and soon I will be Atlantic City clubbing and blowing the little money I have. Since its about a two hour bus ride, I have my ipod playlist ready which will keep me in high spirits. Listen to these tracks and by doing so, you will be helping me celebrate my entry [...]

[ Boe Recordings ] ( buy vinyl ) ( buy mp3s ) With the success of Leif Knowles' first collaboration with vocalist Donna Lea on the Priority EP for Fear of Flying, it's little surprise he's kept her close for his next act, Remember . Arriving on the lightly buzzed about Boe Recordings, the record is substantially peppier than its more lyrical predecessor. Gaining serious pop from the cobblestone arrangement of Lea's syllables, the title track is most effective when slathered in slowly melting organ chords; the sections without [...]

After posting yesterday's full on coverage from this past weekend's Mad Decent Block Party in New York City, I realized that I shot video during the course of the day, but woops, forgot to include the clips in said rundown of the event. In turn, here are three videos from the affair: one from Das Racist (featuring Leif) doing Jungle Fever [...]

Give me anything beat heavy and my attraction for the song will most likely be immediate. Said was the case for Leif's track Timbs. I was first acquainted with Leif through a magazine which touted him as the next 'it' guy from New York. In their case, they were most correct. Timbs is a play on electronic/rap music, and could not have been done any better. Not exactly new to the scene, the song has been around for a few years now. Nonetheless, it's one of those songs that has an [...]

Thanks, again, to the Swedes for providing us (Americans) with a fresh look at American culture. Discobelle , our Grindin' Blog Network papa-bear, has just posted a boiling new mix from NYC club-phenom Kingdom . After doing an interview with us way back when he was just a fledgling, it now seems that we've inspired him to become even greater than he already was. Ha. Now a member of Fool's Gold's finest , and with production coming out an Acephale Records , Kingdom is no longer a mere peasant, he is in [...]

This post is for The Man With No Name. -M Jump Up (Leif Jones Remix) - Major Lazer Really suprised by this one. Really great mix of Electro and Bmore. The drop at 3:43 will KILL you, it's a shame he waits so long to bring it in. Leif is a Wesleyan student as well, for those who are unfamiliar, and he's definitely stepped it up with this in my opinion. Disco Decay (Felguk Mix) - Neelix I love Felguk [...]
Sensual, sexual and strange, the music of Nic Xedro is an interesting conglomerate of trance-inducing whispers and villainous, neck-breaking grooves. It's scintillating and a little towards the theatricality of circuses and sideshows, back-alley meeting points and clandestine cabaret affairs. It's...

Filed under: Concerts and Tours , News Given the name of the event, it's no surprise the crowd at the second annual Brooklyn Electronic Music Festival were pumped to get their groove on. And thanks to the lineup of 40-plus DJs and bands, this year's attendees had plenty of options. With every shade of electro -- from pop to hip-hop and everywhere in between -- there was definitely something for everyone. One of the festival's most promising acts included the house-soaked hip-hop of New York's own Leif, while Milwaukee new [...]

Saturday Post Hello to all. As you know I usually do a Sunday Post that encapsulates the weeks great releases into one giant electronic indie diatribe. Well I am engaged with some family business tomorrow so I'll have to show the love tonight while I have some time and enough energy to espouse my usual rantings and ravings regarding all things music. As a footnote thanks to Mike B for another great night on Thursday and for the Vitaminsforyou show last night at the Lo-Pub. (Images - Alexandros Vasmoulakis ) [...]
