Graphic by Mark Hofmann 2011 will not be remembered as a particularly good year for the world. Between a myriad of horrifying natural disasters, the uncertain outcome of the Arab Spring, political gridlock in the U.S., the EU's seeming unraveling state, austerity protests, and a generally ugly economic period, the events of this year have not offered much to smile about. But for dance music fans, 2011 was a year rich with exciting music coming out of house, techno, bass music, and everywhere between and around. While it might not be remembered as [...]
PS1 Warm Up is an annual summertime tradition in New York City. The new season of daytime/early evening parties at MoMA in Long Island City traditionally featuring DJ talent from all over the world kicked off on Saturday with choice sets from Zoovox, Protect-U, Delicate Steve and Beautiful Swimmers who collectively set the stage for headliner DJ Pierre . Known for his work pioneering acid house via classic Chicago anthems like "Generate Power," Pierre took the overflowing crowd (see pictures below) on a true deep-house journey. Pierre decimated the dance floor by dropping classics like Marshall [...]
[ Meakusma ] ( buy vinyl ) (buy mp3s tk) The eccentric Meakusma imprint seems like a perfect fit for maverick Tel Aviv producer DJ Yoav B., who has made a career of not fitting in. Wisdom Traxx EP is his debut for the label, and its four tracks embody a rough and heavily psychedelic kind of house, their grooves frequently obscured by an overarching sense of madcap experimentalism.

The tracks are usually very progressive in nature and involve a large array of Hypnotic rhythms and percussion. In the similar futuristic minimal house music as Two Dogs In A House , Silver Ripples , & Jonathan Kusuma . These tracks utilize a lot of IDM and dance music elements similar in nature to many releases on Warp Records . by alex auclair
Nickodemus Nathaniel Plyers could have spent an erasmus year perfecting his French, in the majestic city of Paris. He could have spent it continuing his studies in psychology, in the beauteous city of Budapest. But instead, he chose to spend it in a self-induced coma on the fourth floor of Northwick Park hospital, Harrow, Middlesex. Forgetting to tell his distraught family where he was going for a whole year, they huddled around him whilst he embarked on the fantastical voyage, that would turn him from boy to man. For ever since he had first visited it, Nickodemus had planned to spend his erasmus year in the [...]
What vinyl platters could wake 20JFG prematurely from its cryogenic slumber in 2010? What repetitive beats could make its unconscious and partially thawed corpse shuffle towards the nearest dancefloor? What warm-hearted heaters could possibly defrost that heart of stone and illuminate that mind of disillusionment? What songs offered comfort when we were sat down and told that our plan to freeze ourselves in search of a better life in the future, had received some major setbacks? In the year that moved at 60 b.p.m, magic at higher tempos shone like the opening ceremony of the Ark of the Covenant. ////////////////////////////// //////////// 2 Dogs In a House [...]

2011 VIA Festival / Official Preview
Words and coverage by Rick Moslen Last year a tight-knit collective of local artists, musicians, DJ's, and all-around sweet folks threw Pittsburgh an inaugural music festival blending predominantly electronic music with art and technology, the likes of which no one could've anticipated. Since then VIA hasn't disappeared. They book monthly dance parties and concerts throughout Pittsburgh under the moniker, "VIA Presents..." This is all-fantastic, but when the hell is the next festival? Judging by the flyers hanging around town, for five days starting next week they'll take over Pittsburgh's music scene again to grant [...]
