Nowadays in these realms of dance music we tend to get a few people who like to think a little "outside the box". Some people think about driving their basslines further downwards. Some people reduce their dirty dutch house down to 108 beats per minute and then their are some people who like to move the beats forward, faster and harder. Regarding the latter, Pyramid have a free download out and about and it is yours for the taking. Bigging up the future jungle [...]
In our current climate of exponentially expanding micro-genres and sub-sub-niches, we're usually only a few mouse clicks away from finding or assigning a particular tag to any given musical artist. In instances when a group or solo musician seems to have hit upon a sound that hasn't already been neatly classified, it seems there's a whole host of anxious internetters just waiting to cobble
Four to the floor beats be damned, sometimes high energy builds, monumental drops, and squealing synths are no match for simply great music - that's what we have here. Loui Rose Allen, or Foxes as she prefers to be called, is a London-based singer who is following in the footsteps of equally beautiful Brit songbird, Ellie Goulding. Her dazzling vocals beg to be remixed and, while infectiously poppy, never sacrifice their emotion or honesty. Remember her name, because we think we are going to be seeing a lot more of her in the future. The first [...]
Photography: Cody Cobb So the blog went down for about a day, but it's nothing serious just forgot to pay some bills. Anyway, I'm very happy with this Shuffle, I hope you will be too. P.S.: Happy Birthday Joe, totally forgot about it! Foxes - Youth (Pyramid Remix) Dalo - Flight of the Lost Balloon Benjamin Francis Leftwich - Pictures (GZUS [...]
This will be the second remix we've brought you of Foxes new track 'Youth' and yet again it's a talented young Frenchman who remixes this compelling new female talent. He doesn't reinvent the wheel, but does make a stellar straight-up electro track out of the rousing vocals. Each time we hear something new from Pyramid he shows us he's always improving - whether he can keep it up remains to be seen, but it's going to be fun finding out.
First up is legendary DJ Double R's rework of On'n'On ... he simply doesn't do the track any Justice . Justice - On'n'On (Ruined by Rick Rubin) Little Dragon's vocals on Ritual Union are perfectly tamed by German dj/producer Tensnake. He took what were amazing vocals, built an environment around it that allowed it to breath, and it flourished into an overpowering sedative. Little Dragon - Ritual Union (Tensnake Remix) Don't [...]
Consistency is the key and that is exactly what Pyramid has in spades. Everything he's put out has been top notch. Pyramid first popped up in my waking life with the Destiny EP, in whcih he, along with MEO and #125, demonstrated his interpretation of "destiny" in three parts. With this remix of Foxes ' "Youth," he's proved that he deserves some recognition on sound of 2012 lists. With a slow drawn out kickdrum beat in the intro and Loui Rose Allen's sultry vocals (my new favorite female vocalist), the track [...]
Singer/songwriter Louisa Rose Allen's recently had a second wind, as Foxes , when Neon Gold, always with the finger on the pulse of eclectic Pop, snapped her up for the release of her new single 'Youth'. released earlier this month. Appropriately for Neon Gold, the single exists in the nexus between Ellie and Marina. Take Marina's quirkiness and Ellie's percussion led bombast and wrap them up with impassioned vocals and a sense of accessibility and it should see Foxes make quite a mark in 2012. You know Neon Gold has an eye for these things. The internet [...]
Etienne Copin aka Pyramid is one of the most exciting producers on the "scene". I love the way he drives his synths. This kid is going to be huge! Check out his remix for "Youth" from Foxes . This is just another example of what he can do. Don't forget to check him out on Soundcloud for a lot more great music!!!

The best Pyramid in the world I would say. Pyramid always delivers really good stuff, if it's original tracks or remixes. He has got such a potential that even Kitsuné included him on the latest Kitsuné Parisien II. With this remix of Foxes first release "Youth" we can't do more than bow. Foxes is the girl of Loui Rose Allen and you can compare her to acts such as Marina & The Diamonds, Bat For Lashes and Ellie Goulding. In other words, this is great music, and we're sure that you gonna hear [...]

Si usted, es una de esas personas que se asustan facilmente con alguna pelicula de terror en la que la imagen se mantiene estatica con el lente borroso bajo un efecto infrarrojo en medio del bosque en el que solamente escuchan algunos susurros, esto les va a encantar. Chance y a estas alturas del partido ustedes ya esten un tanto familiarizados con Hydra Head debido a que en el pasado este sello ha llegado a editar algunas cosas de proyectos como Prurient y en general, su catalogo esta muy apegado a lo que es el noise, [...]

Portland's electro-dudes Starfucker send out good vibes in Pomona.
Over the Christmas season whilst most of us have either been partying, preparing food or selfishly eating as many chocolates as they can we have had a release unleashed upon us by one of the biggest, fattest and most prominent names in the Breakbeat genre, the @StantonWarriors. 'Shoot Me Down' is released in various guises but not just any. The remixes that are present are created by some of the biggest names in their chosen niche and we have quite an ensemble. The original version of 'Shoot Me Down' [...]
Here is a (partial obviously, these are the things I will remember for the year anyway) list of important names that came up this year. Pyramid Pyramid has been around for quite some times but he really started getting attention this year, his 10 tracks long EP "Lost In Space" is simply filled with awesomeness, that guy will seriously be big in 10 years. His songs could fit so much [...]
As one of the last posts this year with a new release, we give you this amazing EP. It's the first collaboration between these three artists, Tracasseur favourite Pyramid together with 125# and MEO . Could be one of the best and most interesting releases this year actually. The EP "Destiny" is a 3-part story about destiny. Three visions of the same theme by three electronic music lovers makes this release into an electronic music story that should be listened to in the right order to get the right feeling. Love how [...]
It's been a while since we did a Blind I staff compilation. These are always a joy to put together, because we all take our time hand-picking the music. Only the person who zips it up (in this case it was me) gets to listen to the compilation in its entirety before it gets posted so it remains a mystery for most of the staff until it's complete. We definitely bring our different flavors and styles to Blind I for the Winter . There are some upbeat songs, but overall it has [...]
