At the start of this year London based duo Picture Book released their début single, S unshine , which we grew quite fond of, especially the storming Justin Faust reMix.

In My Head is the EPs standout track. Of the four originals present it;s the one that sticks with you the most. Skilfully mixing fluffy commercial dance [...]

Black Emperor -- the ever-elusive purveyors of dystopian gloom and doom -- have emerged from the woodwork (i.e. their Mile End, Montreal abodes) to release their first album in a decade, entitled Allelujah!

From the first listen I fell in love with this one. I know it sounds like a friday tune, but when music is this good, it works any good day. Justin injects a powerful 80’s influence to the happy-go-dancing original version – which I found out that the original version has additional production and mixing by Hugo Leclercq , a.k.a. french boy wonder Madeon – from there the heritage of that signature synth work on the song’s bridge. It’s as if -through it- Hugo’s letting everyone know who’s partly responsible for your frantic dancing while enjoying this one. [...]
I was scheduled to attend a math training tonight so right after work I stopped by our local supermarket to get a sandwich made. While waiting in line a couple in front of me was trying to figure out what to order. The woman made a comment about wanting to be a "vegetarian." The guy fired back "Don't get me any of that vegetarian s**t." My co-worker, ever the fire starter, whispered to me loud enough that they could hear, "That's one of those vegetarian haters." Both the guy and girl turned around and stared at us. We were captured [...]
Daisuke Tsutsumi, Art Director at Pixar had an idea with his friend, illustrator Gérald Guerlais, to create a picture book that would travel around the planet so that illustrators could fill it with their remarkable images. 6 years in the making, 71 participating artists and more than 56,000 miles of travel was what it took to complete Sketchtravel . The rules were simple, an artist would illustrate a blank page and once completed deliver the book in person to the next [...]

My twin brother won a gold medal for achieving the highest leaving cert geography result in Ireland in the year 1998. Six months later, in NUIG's college bar, a drunk know-it-all from Kells chipped his front tooth on the medal in a reckless attempt to verify whether it was solid gold or not. The medal's current whereabouts remain unknown. I'd like to think the weetabix wonder world atlas contributed in some small part to the winning of that medal. not just [...]

![Dubstep Roundup Vol. 30 – 4.20.2012 [Knife Party, Above & Beyond, Picture Book, Chromeo, and more...]](http://cdn.elbo.ws/posts/4230526_lg.jpg)
Its Friday boys and girls; how good it feels. In the middle of planning my next Lights & Music event, I decided to dust out the old Itunes when I found this dubstep roundup that was meant to go up a few weeks ago. Sorry about that guys. I'm still trying to find a balance between all of the projects I've taken on in the last year. This roundup reflects the much more melodic side of dubstep; which frankly is what I prefer. So, in an attempt to just get this bad boy up on [...]

A spot of sun-tinged musical nostalgia for you today. That's if a track a year old qualifies for nostalgia? "Sunshine" first cropped up last spring, or maybe even before that. It's just so long ago, that I struggle to remember the exact date. The 2011 version was beautiful in its simplicity, an entrancing dance beat topped with alluring vocals. The track is courtesy of brothers Dario Darnell and Lorne Ashley, also known as Picturebook. The brothers originally hail from New York, but were raised in Manchester. For the past 3 years they have been based in Liverpool. Perhaps "Sunshine" was [...]
