Aussie newcomer Lancelot is making a hell of a splash with his first release, his We Can Dance EP released on Beatport Monday (2/20), which boasts a killer remix package with familiar indie-dance names Goldroom , Fabian and Moonchild , and another aussie newbie Frames. Lancelot's sound fits perfectly with the slow-house, disco and tropical house currently gaining momentum with those of us who still like our beats electronic but are in need of some that soothe rather than hype. His original Spoken Word was even featured in The Magician 's [...]

January was one of the greatest months for new music that I can remember, and these were some of our favorite songs and artists to come our way. Lapalux - Gutter Glitter Grimes - Genesis Ghost Mutt - Sweat Mode Parallel Dance Ensemble - Occupied 813 - Pumbleous Bubbles Hermitude - [...]

Parallel Dance Ensemble: "Shopping Cart" [Maxxi Soundsystem Remix] This is what we call obsession. Brighton's deep-disco don Maxxi Soundsystem did it again. This time he delivers another great remix of Parallel Dance Ensemble "Shopping Cart" . Taken from "Possessions And Obsessions" remix EP, out now on Permanent Vacation, which also features reworks by Salax Peep Show (aka Axel Boman and Petter), Maxmillion Dunbar, and Permanent Vacation's own Spectacle. Last month, Maxxi Soundsystem released his debut EP "Make Or Break" on Needwant and in case you [...]

A clip of this track was released by Permanent Vacation Records on New Years Eve, and I stumbled upon it the other day on redthreat . Full disclosure: I don't know too much about Parallel Dance Ensemble except that the musical genius, Robin Hannibal , is one half of the duo. This is the second time I've listened to them, but I do know this is a hot track - quite frankly anything Hannibal is involved in is bound to be amazing (i.e. Quadron [...]

Permanent Vacation released this one a day before New Years. Here's one I've been really vibing to. Another win for Maxxi Soundsystem. Parallel Dance Ensemble - Shopping Cart (Maxxi Soundsystem Remix)

I will have to take further actions for you to GET IT! Soon come, for now... get on this & stay amped! Good things a coming!

Summer time calls for a fresh set of summer jamz, and I'm currently playing this whenever the sun remembers what time of year it is. An early release on Yam Who's ISM label, this sounds like Neneh Cherry's little sister free-associating over a Wordyrappinghood edit. Its actually NZ rapper Coco Solid with producer Bobbi Soxx (might not be real names) who make up Parallel Dance Ensemble. Sticking to a Disco-not-Disco groove that sounds old but new, Yam Who? manages to keep the feeling of the original but tighten the beats for the dancefloor. You can't help but move [...]

It's been a few years since Peaches, Fannypack, and Avenue D's glory days so it's nice to hear a little booty-clash-boogie coming back. " Parallel Dance Ensemble is the brainchild of Denmark hip hop producer Robin Hannibal of Owusu & Hannibal fame and New Zealand rapper Coco Solid. They started making music after meeting at the 2008 Red Bull Music Academy." Their latest EP Possessions And Obsessions was released in March off of Permanent Vacation. It hasn't gotten much buzz as far I can see, but the music is fun and cheeky plus their music videos are [...]

I've been telling you about BCB for a minute now. I've been telling you about all things Robin Hannibal come to think of it. The Copenhagen Kang always & I mean ALWAYS seems to create the perfect groove. BCB for those that do not know are comprised of Robin Hannibal of Quadron, Ronnie Vindahl, Thomas Bisballe, and David Cytryn; with additional vocal contributions from Coco O of Quadron and Liv Lykke. The group was formed due to their common "love of hip hop, soul and funk," meeting once a [...]

Aight. Normally I would adhere to our 'late pass' rule (considering it came out last year & all), but trill saliva is I don't even think y'all are even up on game & that's just being trill. A handful of the faithfuls know whats up. Most of you are my friends & for those that are not usually email or twit or facebook or in one way or another let it be known that they respecognize the gangsta knowledge n what have you. That being said... let me put y'all on to something you are all sorta kinda on yet [...]

Parallel Dance Ensemble curiosa mezcla la de este dúo, formado por la neozelandesa Coco Solid (Jessica Hansell) y el danés Bobbi Soxx (aka Robin Hannibal [Owusu & Hannibal, Quadron and Boom Clap Bachelors]), después de debutar (aunque con carreras en solitario cada uno de ellos) con un 12" en el 2009 'Pizza Turtle Cadillac EP' para el sello ISM Records (propiedad de Yam Who?), han dado el salto al sello alemán de Permanent Vacation, donde acaban de publicar un mini-álbum) de 5 temas en vinilo, y con 9 tracks en la edición digital. Un disco en el que se [...]

After their well-received 12" release in 2009 on Yam Who's ISM label, Parallel Dance Ensemble , aka Coco Solid and Bobbi Soxx (producer Robin Hannibal), just released their new 9-track EP "Possessions & Obsessions" on Permanent Vacation. The official video for their new single "Shopping Card" was directed by Lisa Dunn.
[There is a video that cannot be displayed in this feed. Visit the blog entry to see the video.] I'm a huge fan of everything the whole Boom Clap Bachelors (BCB, Non Plus, Quadron, Owusu & Hannibal, Parallel Dance Ensemble, IOU) camp does. This is a dope song/video with Robin Hannibal on production, Bobbi Soxx & Quadron's CoCo Solid on vocals/lyrics.

So, if you couldn't guess by the album art alone; There is a new blogger in Disco Hands-ville and he goes by the name Pretty/Ugly. However, all that is irrelevant due to that fact that he makes nothing in comparison to this slammin' track. It's a shame we haven't posted this sooner. If you don't own a pair of rollerskates, get some NOW! This jammy ham jam will have you all up in a 1982 daydream. Coco Solid lends some nonsense rap-style vocals to this thumping bassline, but honestly, she could be talking about last night's liquid taco bubbleguts (and [...]

'80s revivalism... good or bad? Turns out the answer is black and white... I'm pretty sure we can all agree that just about any music being made today that's too heavily '80s-influenced is usually a steaming pile of aural shit. I personally blame Interpol for this... because fuck Interpol, that's why. But here's a new record that has changed my tune somewhat. From now on, I think you can say that music being made today that's too heavily WHITE '80s-influenced is usually a steaming pile of aural shit. [...]

" Tous les soirs, Karen me faisait découvrir le Londres branché qu'elle fréquentait depuis ses études. Nous allions dans les nouvelles boîtes. On y croisait de nombreux écrivains, des éditeurs à succès, des attachés de presse, des producteurs ainsi que de jeunes acteurs. […] Parfois, nous nous rendions à d'autres fêtes, dans de nouveaux restaurants aux noms évocateurs. Karen buvait jusqu'à ne plus tenir debout. "Tendre est la nuit", gémissait-elle. Elle ne citait ni Keats, ni Fitzgerald, mais une chanson dont c'était le titre. — "Quelque chose à te dire", Hanif Kureishi. Pot pourri, [...]

Mmmmmm I'm in the best mood. It's been nice and sunny, really looking forward to this weekend, and a bunch of incredible records just landed on my doorstep - will be posting some time later. So let's do some fun music! I'm pretty late on posting this but Sidwho has been copping some play by so many cool people lately. Such a great spacey funky jam. Hooootttttt rolling bass, hiiippppppp disco drums. Golly I love this song. Ahhh this weather is amazing, it's so fucking hot in my room I think I might melt! [...]
