Decibel Festival founder, president, and curator Sean Horton stopped by The Morning Show to reveal the first half of the 2012 lineup first to KEXP listeners. Seattle is beyond fortunate to feature one of the world's preeminent festivals of electronic music, running September 26-30, and based on this early look at this year's lineup (60 artists out of 120), it's only getting stronger. Rising Australian star Kimbra , Carl Craig , Fennesz , John Talabot , Ariel Pink and Matthew Dear top the list. KEXP listeners will also [...]

Op een voor Oranje tragisch verlopen EK schoot de bonkige spits Wiltord mij in de finale naar een minidisc-speler. Voetbalpooltjes, weet u wel. Die geluidsdrager was ook toen al op zijn retour (was ie ooit een succes eigenlijk?) maar dan...
Dieci anni in un battito di ciglio o se preferite in un glitch. La decade degli Zero ha portato con sé, insieme a consumismo, desolazione e involuzione del genere umano, una band che prima mancava e che ancora oggi stupisce e inorgoglisce saperla italiana. I Port-Royal da Genova hanno festeggiato lo scorso anno il decennale della loro carriera e oggi ci propongono una raccolta del loro materiale più difficile da reperire, un doppio disco pregno di suoni e umori, pregnante sussidiario del decennio attonito che ci siamo lasciati alle spalle. Nel primo dischetto di "The Golden [...]

I feel I could start these listings posts with 'Christ, 25th October, already?' pretty much every single week at the moment. Not that the world is getting away from me exactly - in fact it all seems to be slowly locating some semblance of normality after a couple of months trying to get my head around my new full-time responsibilities - it's just that I have been constantly busy since I left Proper Job and in those circumstances time just buzzes past at a frightening rate. This weekend we finally got into the territory of proper cold. Not [...]

Rei Harakami is a Japanese IDM DJ, his work reminds me a lot Wisp's, really peaceful, but with some DnB in the back. #5 Rei [...]
This has been been on my iPod non-stop... Yes, i've recently rediscovered my love for Royal Bangs. In the midst of rediscovering it i had a thought......"wouldn't it be cool to make a list of royal related bands?". So i did.. A Very Royal Variety ---------- 1. Queens Of The Stone Age - Do It Again 2. Port-Royal - The Photoshopped Prince [...]
Having broken my no-hangover-sundays-from-now-o n rule there is little in the way of energy to be mustered from inside the cavity that is my cranium. So while I prepare for a night of twisty turning, performed in pools of haemorrhaging sweat that shimmer in the backdrop of nightmares which involve hugger in all manner of atrocities I leave you with this monster piece of ambience courtesy of Italy's Port-Royal. There's a movie soundtrack somewhere just waiting for this to add the necessary gravitas. Talk to you circa 3:38am. KD Port-Royal - Leitmotiv/Glasnost [...]
A couple of days ago the supreme rulers of all things Indie-Electro, Ladytron , released the fourth and final instalment of their 'Remixed & Rare' series. Each release of the series focused on one of their four studio albums collecting reMixes from the single, B-sides and other gems. Taking it's tracks from 2007's 'Velocifero' it's mostly collected from the singles that accompanied the album with a couple of surprises thrown in. Take a listen to some of our favourites. The Toxic Avenger absolutely hammers home his dirty Electro-House banger version of 'Ghosts', Port-Royal [...]

I'm not in this month's MAP, though the eagle-eyed among you may want to query that. "Look", you say, "a little Daily Growl entry for England, just like usual". But no my friends, no. Because of all the hospital shenanigans at the start of the month, I never got round ...

Päevase hilinemisega küll, kuid aasta esimene MAP on nüüd siin. Lisaks Eesti loole soovitan kindlasti kuulata Austraalia, Hiina, Islandi ja Iirimaa lugusid, neile on Popopi rasvane kvaliteedimärk peale surutud. EESTI: Popop UNCANDY - Lovecool UNCANDY (jah, on oluline kirjutada kõik suurte tähtedega) on multitalent Maria Juur Tallinnast. Tema kodulindistused on Eesti indieskeenes juba omajagu kahinaid tekitanud ja kuuldavasti ei pea [...]
