Image by ARTEMIS for Hobogestapo @ Controversy II with DJ Kaos & Knightlife. Just adding to my post last week featuring DJ Agent 86 ; he's been kind enough to share his amazing remix of the classic Pink Floyd anthem 'Another Brick In The Wall' . You'll be happy to know that he doesn't steer away from the original much at all, only to amplify the bassline, keeping in tact David Gilmour's famous guitar solo. (This is light years away from that murderous Eric Prydz remix of the same tune [...]

Kid Koala (Ninja Tune) et Dynomite D (bien connu pour avoir remixé Money Mark et collaboré avec les Beastie Boys ) ont uni leur force avec Chris Ross and Myles Heskett , éminents membres du groupe Wolfmother (Modular), le temps d'un album et d'une tournée US (9 dates) . Initialement le duo (Koala & D) s'etait rencontré pour produire la musique d'un film qui finalement n'est jamais sorti...avant d'etre présenté aux australiens plus motivés que jamais par ce projet.

Delphic This Momentary (single) Modular Recordings Release: August 28 Delphic: (adj.) Obscurely prophetic; “Delphic pronouncements”, "an oracular message”. Anyone with half an idea about Manchester knows it’s the birthplace of the most important movement to influence the present-day banger. Without Tony Wilson, his label Factory Records, a band called New Order and the Hacienda nightclub the idea that hundreds of young, burning bodies needed a particular kind of music to go with their ecstasy-induced dancing and the club’s flashing light scheme wouldn’t have [...]

Looks like the modsquad have done the deed and are on the verge of releasing Modulars 'Leave them all Behind' Compilation trez (3).

Tracklisting for disc 1 and 2 follows; MIXED Phoenix - Lisztomania (Clasixx Remix) Fever Ray - Triangle Walks (Tiga's 1-2-3-4 Remix) Canyons - Blue Snakes [...]

ok. Modular are definitely one of my favourite record labels out there. Apart from their idea of a music festival last year, they house some of the best bands out there. People who know me will know that I don't shut up about how good Cut Copy and Van She are. I also LOVE the Avalanches and am waiting on their new release. And their recent signings of Canyons and the Bang Gang boys have got me a bit excited. But, i do digress. Every few years Modular put out a compilation called Leave Them All Behind. I'm [...]

I think we’ve already established that Bag Raiders ’ Shooting Stars is one of the most perfect songs in the last few years, if not the history of civilization, so it’s joyous to see that the boys’ new home, Modular, are pushing the glorious single out to the masses. That involves a shiny new video for the single as well as some extra shiny remixes from the likes of Kris Menace, In Flagranti, Siriusmo, Cassian and Shazam. The Menace and Cassian mixes are top notch stuff, never trying to top the original, but just add a new [...]

The single comes correct with remixes by Kris Menace, Siriusmo, In Flagranti and Shazam, and a video directed by New York upstart Ron Winter. Just watch the clip and make up your mind !

This 123 came out on Modular last year and seems to be sold out, think it was a limited edition press. after purchasing a while back I didn't realise it was Ladyhawke until recently, now that this tune is getting rinsed in the mainstream- either way this remix is a cool take on things. As Phonica puts it "Mock & Toof's punk funk workout really hits the spot!"

ok. so it's a new music post and it's all some decent electro stuff that has got me a movin lately. There's a bit of local stuff, some US stuff, and I think some stuff from Vietnam. There's some thumping stuff and some great chilled stuff. So, i guess by now you've guessed that there's some stuff in this post. ...hmm...I'm watching the doggies absolutely kill the hawks (it's 58 to 2 and the first quarter hasn't even finished yet!). We're playing bloody well. So that's why i sound distracted. Anyway, I'm not as excited about [...]

Canyons are fast risers. Signed to < strong> that Aussie label, the Sydney based duo (formerly Perth) have just recently signed a deal with DFA too, due to release a 123 in July. How to describe this track? Its got a touch of balearic, with a dark and low pulsating bassline, and a haunting horn creeping through the beat. This is definitely a dark, midnight club track but a very promising evolution from their last big track we featured on Waves, Apples & Pears. MP3: [...]
The Presets released a new video for Kicking & Screaming this week. It's pretty much just a live performance video, but since I've seen them live, I can appreciate it. I caught these guys at Monolith last year and it looked a lot like this crowd, just jammed into a room that held only about 300 people...shhhweaty. Previous: MP3 : The Presets - Talk [...]
"Kicking and Screaming" The Presets

This Friday Granny has a mighty storm brewing in her fine tea. Jacques Renault , one half of Brookyn duo Runaway ( DFA / REKIDS / I'm a Cliche / Wurst Edits ) will be making an appearence at Sorry Grandma!, alongside UK's dub house & deep space disco guru Trus'Me - this night won't disappoint. Jacques has also released (while ago) a selection of fine edits on the rad Revenge label. JD posted up a track from the release a short time [...]

Here's some oldies, but make no mistake, they're very much goodies. They're from Australian artist/producer/prankster Spod , who's been terrorizing the locals for a few calenders now with lots of craziness. He just released a new 7" on Rice Is Nice the other month backed with a dangerously good cover of 2 Live Crew's We Want Some Pussy. Hot shit right? Here's two of the dude's classic remixes, one for theredsunband, the other a "no-effing-way" 8-Bit mix for Wolfmother. We need more of this. Wolfmother - Woman (Spod Remix) [ [...]
