It took us a few days to recover from the festival and the whole trip. So if anyone still cares, here's our report. Oh and sorry for our amateur photos, but after this we really don't think it's such a big deal. DAY ONE: Hunting for Hipsters After a couple of days of walking around Barcelona and checking out its night life, we came to the festival dead tired. Walked through a couple of shows and sat around watching hipsters. I've never seen so many in [...]
A column by Paul Blandford. Apologies for the tardiness, it would seem that I haven't done a column in quite a while, due to the fact another little bundle of joy has entered my life... meaning 3 women in my house now! Anyway... Having been a fan of both these next artists for a long time I thought the next instalment of the column would be an ode to 2 (3 if you include their recent collaboration!) of the most pioneering acts in electronic music at the [...]
One guy got injured but Skerrit Bwoy had fun. Me too. On thursday Electronic Beats Cologne took place with appearances by Moderat , Major Lazer , Kele of Bloc Party , Miike Snow , Turboweekend and Little Dragon . We saw the last three shows, Kele , Moderat and Major Lazer. All three ways of playing electronic music live known to mankind. Bloc Party s [...]
Where? Roskilde, Denmark When? July 1 - July 4 (warmup from June 26) Web? roskilde-festival.dk If there is any such thing as a grand old man on the Danish festival scene, it is the Roskilde Festival . Celebrating 40 years of action this year, the festival is once again ready to invites music lovers to the biggest music festival in Northern Europe. While the festival's lineup doesn't have as sharp a musical focus as, say, Primavera Sound or Sonar, Roskilde has a special ability to [...]
What a great way to start this year’s festivies! For springten ‘s opening concert last night, Moderat performed a spectacular audio-visual show in a magical setting on top of a hill that overlooks the whole city of Graz. Beautiful music and gorgeous visuals by Pfadfinderei. Moderat is an electronic music project that started in Berlin as a collaboration between Sascha Ring (aka Apparat ) and Gernot Bronsert and Sebastian Szary (aka Modeselektor). Their first full length album took a long time to [...]

There are in fact probably approximately 125+ good reasons (just cast your eye on the tags below) to be excited about Primavera Sound 2010, and if you've already bought a ticket (or are still planning to) you'll probably have your own personal handful. I'll leave you with 14 (below), one for every day until Primavera Sound 2010 kicks off in exactly two weeks time. I don't know about you, but excited doesn't even begin to describe it for me. The lineup truly looks is as if the organisers carefully studied and then booked my last.fm [...]
Vai ser no próximo dia 5 de Junho que a formação germânica irá actuar no Optimus Clubbing na Casa da Música no Porto. A banda de Hans-Joachim Roedilius e de Dieter Moebius após um longo hiato regressaram em 2007, tendo efectuado uma série de concertos pela Europa. Apesar da idade, os mestres da música electrónica, ambiental, kraut, espacial,... ainda produzem da melhor música que anda por aí. Para acabar a noite, actuam os Chrome Hoof e Moderat.
One of the better albums I've heard in recent months is Galaxy of Nowhere from Mondkopf . Part of the Fluokids family, Mondkopf is a 23 year-oldToulouse-born Parisian-based producer whose sound is a mix of the big beat drops of Modeselektor with the emotional synths of M83 / Apparat with the electronic melodies of Nosaj Thing . He has remixed the likes of The Golden Filter, The Teenagers, and most recently, Caribou . Galaxy of Nowhere is the most engaging thoroughbred electronic album I've heard [...]
En uge efter, at Roskilde Festivals ledelse ved et pressemøde i Tivoli, offentliggjorde festivalen officielle program, er der blevet sagt det, der skulle sige om programmet. Nogen har været ude af sig selv, andre har været ude med riven og selv, er jeg for sent ude. Alligevel vover jeg pelsen og giver her, min (forsinkende) [...]
Starting this post off with a BANG, I think I'll expose some of you to some new talent. DIE ANTWOORD are a crazy trio from South Africa. Kinda like the Afrikaans answer to Coco Solid or Bumblebeez . Check their insane video below. SLAP IN THE BASS are a bassline/electro/house duo specialising in Lee Mortimer -esque insanity, though parts of it remind me of the more ravey Kicks Like A Mule , Squire of Gothos or Kanji Kinetic . They're also known as Dirty Monkeez , who [...]

(Photo by pitzigoiul ) This week has been pretty hectic for me, hence the lack of posts. Don't worry, I will make up for it next week. I leave you all with a picture of two women caressing, as well as a few auditory gifts from my current itunes playlist to pass the time, enjoy. Joey Beltram - Slice 2010 (Carl Cox Rerub) Essentially, I Feel Love 2010 Afrojack - Pon De Street Typical Afrojack Style (that's [...]

"There Is Another Sky" is the latest episode of Caprica. Watching it was an enthralling experience as it tackles questions of identity, power, the illusive nature of reality and the myth of home. Tamara Adama is at the heart of things, a character who up unthis point was almost forgotten by the audience, effortlessly transforms into one of the most compelling. Witnessing a virtual intelligence come to terms with their existence, and then master their domain was fascinating. The Adama clan is now on equal dramatic footing with the Graystones, and the origins of the first Cylon war are coming [...]
Click image to download these albums 10. Borgore – Foes (16 Bit Fuck Hoes Remix) The kids these days are calling this stuff gorestep. I suppose if indie rock taught us anything it’s that a vigorous taxonomic assault on dubstep is inevitable. Seems like things are moving pretty fast for a genre that just recently emerged from UK garage (or was that speed garage? no wait, grime? 2-step? jungle? bassline? d&b? dub? whatever). Call it what you want, this song is face melter. Download audio file [...]
Mmmmm! Slow fade-in mornings. Moderat - Rusty Nails The juan Mclean - Happy Hous (Lazaro Casanova Remix) The Swiss - Bubble Bath
Ok so a week into 2010 is a bit late for a "best of 20093 post but any regular readers (are there any?) will know i've had problems with hard-drives, my internet connection, my laptop in general and more recently some other stuff has came up that has prevented regular posting recently. But back to the post.. Deciding on the songs and the order of them for this Top 30 was a hard decision (the Top 30 albums was even harder, post that at the weekend) [...]
Na een bijzonder heftige stemperiode is 'Lobo' (afkomstig van de Narrominded Split LP 4 ) van de Amsterdamse electroproducer Garçon Taupe met 1007 stemmen uitgeroepen tot de beste dancetrack van 2009. Röyksopps 'The Girl and the Robot' ontvangt met 989 stemmen het zilver, terwijl het brons wordt uitgereikt aan 'Seven' van Fever Ray, dat slechts 1 stem minder kreeg.
