Chicago, you're a bunch of lucky kids this Tuesday because Soundbar is being invaded by two of Hot Biscuits favorite groups. In case you didn't know, that's Jokers of The Scene and Acid Girls of course! These two have been posted so many times on this blog it would be irresponsible for us to not rep this even! They are both two of the best North American acts right now. Their remixes alone would be reason enough to go see them. However, when you factor in there amazing dj mixes posted on this very site along [...]

Check out Moneypenny's debut single "Say No" remixed by fellow Chicagoans Hey Champ. There isn't a doubt that the quirky electro/dance DJ duo Moneypenny is doing big things. In fact, if you know anything about the local electro-music scene in Chicago, Moneypenny (formerly known as Rocktapussy) is a household name. Both DJ's A-Cup and Mother Hubbard have longstanding and respected careers on the city's nightlife scene, and there's something about their musical synergy that always turns their parties into a sweaty, rockin' good time. Now branching into live performance versus just mixing, Moneypenny has released "Say [...]

Aside from the massively huge Halloween show with Chromeo, Crystal Castles and Boys Noize , I think this Basement Jaxx tour stop is going to be one of the biggest shows on the year for Chicago. With supporting acts like MSTRKRFT, Modeselektor, Bald E, Moneypenny and Jordan Z you can't really go wrong. Also, in case you didn't know why Jaxx were hitting the tour life again, it's because they're promoting their newly released, highly anticipated Scars album. Scars is their newest release since [...]

The duo, which began strictly as a DJ project in 2008, quickly blossomed into a full-fledged live act as Jessica Gonyea (A-Cup) and Chess Hubbard (Mother [...]

Hey Champ are certainly the 'in-form' remixers at the moment, straight off the back of blinding remixes for The Sounds and 'that' Database Vs. French Horn Rebellion track . This remix of Moneypenny is taking things to the world of italo-disco. Cannot wait to hear what magic they've sprinkled on their forthcoming mixes for Priors and Passion Pit . ♫ Moneypenny - Say No (Hey Champ Remix) [ M ]* ← ♥ ♥ ♥ * Props to [...]
The boys of Green Day once said to wake me up when December comes . While we're not there quite yet, this does mark the last Friday of September 2009 and thus, the last Friday Mixtape of September 2009. So, take the time to reminisce about the month that was Pavement, Kanye, and CoS' two year anniversary, while enjoying this week's best mix of new singles, covers, and remixes as well as mp3s from some up-and-comes you might just want to check out. NEW Singles: "Alleycat" by Awesome New [...]

And all that... C.L.A.W.S. - Gravity and You (Kind of like Tech-House with a few drops of pop-synth, aka awesome) C.L.A.W.S. - Radiance (I feel like the synth that comes in at 3:56 is talking to me, aka awesome) Cassius - YSTC (Don Diablo Remix) ( DD adds a nice energy to the enjoyable, yet stationary original) Fat Phaze - Mateo (Feeling the atmosphere that's going on here, reminds me of UNDO Records ) Feel My Method - [...]
