In honoring the late electronic music pioneer Dr. Robert Moog, I will admit that I've never pronounced his name correctly and will hereafter pronounce it properly (rhymes with "vogue"). It will be relatively miniscule gesture compared to MoogFest, a unique and growing festival honoring the doc's vast contributions to the modern musical landscape. After a strong debut at its new location in Asheville, NC last year, MoogFest 2011 boasts a diverse lineup filled with exclusive performances and exciting acts from all walks of genres. Leading the festival this year are The Flaming [...]
Our third installment of Midweek Mixes, that perfect mix of electronic music to get you through the dreaded second half of the week
Hola from Spain! I was lucky enough to make the trip over here to Barcelona for Primavera Sound , a music festival featuring some of my absolute favorite bands in the entire world. I've put together an official guide to help those who are also in attendance navigate through the madness. I haven't mentioned every band playing, only those I am most excited for. In addition, I've selected a stage each day that you shouldn't miss! For those not here with me, festival line-ups are some of the best ways to discover new bands, so check out [...]
These topless chicks above are pointing to the direction they think music is heading to..... I think they are pretty spot on. One of my favourite online blogs about new music, is no other than the brain child from Peter Lanceley , This Music Wins. This week, Pete released a pretty stellar compilation. The 17 tracks listed are in his mind, great examples of how the internet is affecting the collaboration of music across borders. He mentions the affect the internet has on the cross cultural gloablization of music which is a pretty interesting concept. [...]
On Sunday I made my way down to the Netaudio event at the Roundhouse , a yearly event, conference, broadcast and live music convention for which my commissioned piece, a This Music Wins special outlining my thoughts on the stylistic future of experimental music on the internet, went out at 4.30pm via Roundhouse Radio and Resonance 104.4 FM London . You can listen again to the piece below, grab a zip file of all the compositions, or download them individually via tracklisting. Though trains prevented me from catching the headlining ' Nurse With Wound [...]
Matthew Dear 's output over the years has been extraordinary, diverse, and challenging, just like the label he set up with Sam Valenti, Ghostly International, from which he releases under his own name and guises Audion, Jabberjaw, and False, surveying various musical styles that use Detroit techno as a spiritual kind of touchstone (remember 19992s "Hands Up For Detroit"?). When he released 20032s Leave Luck to Heaven , it was obvious that his work was about creating new boundaries as well as pushing them, since he starting mixing pop with minimal techno, creating a different kind of radiantly intelligent [...]

Matthew Dear - You Put A Smell On Me (Breakbot Remix) A funky throwback jam for your Monday blues. Official Website [ ♫ | Download ]
Grimes - Vanessa from Arbutus Records on Vimeo . D' EON - TRANSPARENCY from Hippos In Tanks on Vimeo . You're not seeing double, that is Claire Boucher in two new videos. The first sees her take up dance lessons (add it to the list of recent contemporary dance vids alongside Tune Yards, Kanye and Wild Beasts…) with some done up friends while in d'Eon's 'Transparency' things get strange with a spot [...]
So I finally got around to listening to this Nicolas Jaar character that Laura has been bugging me about. I'm really digging this more experimental-yet-accessible approach to electronic music. Incorporating instrumental recording with deep house beats and haunting vocals, Nicolas Jaar has made quite a name for himself. With official remixes of Azari & III and Matthew Dear tracks, Jaar is quickly winning the respect of some very sophisticated producers. Nicolas Jaar- Keep Me There Nicolas Jaar- Too Many Kids Finding Rain In The Dust [...]
Techno maestro Matthew Dear is not your usual DJ - he maintains four different aliases (Audion, False, Jabberjaw and Matthew Dear) each with their own distinct styles and visual personality. It was under his own name that he released his latest album Black City to much fanfare in August of last year. The Slowdance EP will be the third and final release from Black City and [...]
Matthew Dear just wrapped up a successful tour with Interpol across Europe & the UK. Before he set out on the month-long jaunt, Matthew played an excellent headline show in Brooklyn at the Music... **Summary** Go to website for downloads, videos & more.
Remixes can often be a funny thing. You take artist A, who has a very distinctive and recognizable musical fingerprint and give them access to one of artist B's finest songs and let them have at it. Occasionally the result can be a muddled mess that adds little to the sonic palette while removing all the finest qualities of...

Matthew Dear - You Put A Smell On Me (Photocall Remix) ( mp3 )
Matthew Dear has released an EP called 'Slowdance' featuring remixes for that track plus "You Put a Spell on Me" from his excellent 2010 album 'Black City' . They are giving away a Photocall Remix for "You Put a Spell on Me" that is pretty amazing! Digging it more than the Breakbot remix of the same track that is also available on the EP. Real dark and dancey which equals my cup of tea. Check it out below. You [...]
