Hi there Sorry for the lack of activity lately, busy busy busy... Guess who just released a remix for Louis La Roche ? Our boy Magna ! It's part of LLR's remix contest for Untrue and it has all its chances to win in my opinion, brilliant balance of synths, violins, vocals and dubstep parts. Bonus : Vito 's March mix, 2 weeks late but eh, it's a good [...]
Hi there Did you guys ever heard about Tobtok ? Well I did not until today, and that's a shame ! He released an EP called Reincarnation on Stardust Records today. If I had to actually compare his style to other artists' I'd say he's between Daft Punk (Discovery period) and Madeon, that's not too bad right? There is only one thing I don't really enjoy, it's the way the songs end, [...]
Made my day, and it's only 9am. Magna's just killing it one more time, that remix is really different compared to most of the other, he chopped the vocals and he did good ! The Rapture - How Deep Is Your Love? (Magna's 'Stripped' Remix) by Magna -Here
I kept this treat for the end of October. Released today, I present you Magna 's brand new EP, Scar ! Scar by Magna It starts with an intro that will remind you of Mr Oizo's weirdest creations, distorted notes, mashed up samples, high piano notes and most important of all, an ending that will make you know what's going to happen to your ears for the [...]

Booh !!! First of all, before any talking. Beyonce - Crazy In Love (Fare Soldi Chiapponzilla remix) [click to download] Simply incredible, the original track is already amazing (yeah, I said it.) but Fare Soldi took it to a whole other level. Track of the summer that hasn't even started yet ! [...]
Hi everyone Yesterday a compilation was released, featuring some of my favorite artists, The Phantom's Revenge, Magna, Quinten 909, Galactik Knights... But that compilation is no usual compilation, it came out for a reason, raising money for Japan. You like good music ? You like to do good things ? Then you know what to do !

Do you remember the wonderful Encarta? Before super fast Broadband and Wikipedia, us cool kids back in the early 90's had Encarta. At the time it was the most futuristic thing imaginable, but like most Microsoft products these days, it soon became redundant. We're not sure if Errors created 'Magna Encarta' as an ode to that classic program, but we sure hope so.
Click here to view the embedded video. Released yesterday via Glaswegian label Rock Action Records as a 7" picture disc, Errors new track 'Magna Encarta' now has a shiny new video to accompany it. Slowly bubbling with layered synths, the track subtly builds as soaring strings and a snapping beat creep in. With a typically momentous rhythm in place, it's not long before the song is a swirling, hazy cacophony of electronic post-rock noise. At just over the 6-minute mark the harmonies twist and [...]
This great double-sided picture 73sees the return of Glasgow's Errors.It has not been long since their excellent remixed album 'Celebrity Come Down With Me' was doing the rounds, but here they are back in the driving seat. The title track's a series of ups and downs - big, analogue synths - faliing, re-surfacing, wavering keys, flattened snares, the choral, the cinematic, cheap electronics, electro beats - it's all here for over six, twisting minutes. 'Ganymede' is a complete change of landscape - a track set on repeat with woozy, fluctuating guitars. Errors are a band that continue to impress and [...]
Glaswegian electronic rock band Errors are set to release a 73 picture disk in April ahead of few UK dates and a wider tour of the States support fellow Scots Mogwai . The A-side is called 'Magna Encarta' has been made available and you can check out the naughty little numbers below. To me, it sounds like a twisting and turning epic post-rock track played through an electronic filter and sped up - which obviously is no bad thing! There are a few UK shows in April listed as well: [...]
Magna is back. Well, not quite yet. But he just dropped off this quick mix containing three tracks off his upcoming EP: " Radio ", " Simple Things ", and " Step Outside ". Are you ready? mp3 Magna - Three Tracks in Three Minutes (320kbps) <3
Well, comments refuse to work in the new ilictronix 2.0, so I'm going to take a break and post some goodies! Magna sent me a 3-track sample as a holiday gift to all. It's public on the 24th, so consider this a semi-exclusive. So enjoy this nice little cheese-sampler of sorts, "Three Tracks in Three Minutes." Featuring the sexy tracks "Radio", "Simple Things", and "Step Outside." And as a bonus, a new remix. You'll dig it. [...]
At first glance this post might look completely random, but I assure you it isn't. The tracks I am about to post were all played by me at my very first DJ session! And they are insanely addictive and good too off course. Janelle Monae – Tightrope (TEAM BANZAI Remix) [click to download] Let's start off by throwing in some Team Banzai (still going on as our artists of the month). The original already caught [...]
I am all too pleased to do this post. All the way from Central Pennsylvania, seventeen year old Jake Decoteau , also known as Magna , has just put out his third EP entitled, THREE . It's four tracks and one special remix. He's releasing this as "pay-what-you-want" through his Bandcamp . So, if you dig the tracks - which you will - and you're not a cheapskate - which you aren't - buy some beer, throw whatever cash you have left at him, and throw a huge bash! You are ready. [...]
Well, with my first year at Lollapalooza in the books I think I can safely say that I'm now "into the festival scene." Lolla 2k10 was amazing and I'm looking forward to closing out the year with North Coast Fest, Sonar and the Mad Decent festivals. Given that this was my first year, I found myself "shooting" a bunch of videos with my iP4. Some good, some bad, but in general they're all pretty awesome. I welcome you to check out a couple of those videos below and all of them, in 720p HD, right here . I'm not going [...]
Young guy from Pennsylvania, only sixteen years old and he already produces great music. Magna is his name and he has just released his debut EP "Three" for free, or as he puts it "pay-what-you-want". You can not only hear that this guy got talent, when hyped LBCK makes a remix of your music, it's a receipt for quality. Give some of your high-fives at Magna's MySpace and take a listen to "Three". The "Diamond" tracks are awesome stuff. Magna - Are You Ready? [...]
Unless you've been living under a rock for the past few months, you should know that Magna's long awaited third EP (appropriately titled THREE) is released today! Now, I must admit… I am a massive Magna fan, so I couldn't help but jump on the idea of doing an album review (or rather, EP review) for Three. I now realise that it is really hard to critique something that you really love, so it was quite hard for me to tear the EP to pieces and scrutinise it. It also should be noted that I am a VERY harsh [...]
Two weeks ago I announced Magna as our artist of the month . In the interview, we talked about his upcoming EP - THREE. Well, I'm pleased to say that it's now available for download! You probably heard the tracks of THREE in the post, but even so - download the EP now!! I mean, would Prez really choose an untalented artist to feature? I've been told I'm very picky. And it's not like me to "advertise" like this, so clearly I'm talking about something big. [...]
To kick off our new, steady, rhythm of ilictronix Featured Artists (once a month, I promise), I am pleased to announce our latest spectacle, Magna. At only 16 years old, Monsieur DeCoteau is capable of producing house music that makes yours truly question the universe (that's right, it's that good). But you know what? Why do I need to tell you? Hear from the man himself. COMMENCE INTERVIEW . But first, how about some shiny press photos? So, tell us a [...]
