Can I tell you how much I love the backlash against Journey's "Don't Stop Believin'"? Since 2007's Sopranos finale, Steve Perry's ode to small town girls living in lonely worlds has been worked into Kanye's Glow in the Dark tour, given the jazz hands treatment in both Glee and Rock of Ages , and become go-to karaoke dynamite for a generation swaddled in faux-worn sex-pun Aéropostale tees. The rolled eyes are understandable then, when the track comes piping through a diner's tinny PA at 2am; as if we have all tacitly agreed [...]
Those dope kids in Finger On The Pulse and Famous Friends have Voltron combined this coming Saturday night for a rad show in Williamsburg Brooklyn, combining the DJ sets from London, UK-based Valerie collective destroyer Russ Chimes, a special live...

Ok here is the first ever weekly Cassette Culture cassette! It tells the story of a boy called Brian and a girl called Abigail. You can download each track individually, download them all in a zip file or download my shambolic attempt to mix them (constructive criticisms very welcome). We kick things off with Thunderbird from atmospheric electro-pop outfit The Golden Filter . The start of this is like emerging into the sunlight through one of those beaded doorway curtains. [...]

Hi. Kunk is very busy preparing some stuff, so blogging, unfortunately, again had to wait. This is not a super unique post either and I'm usually not doing it like this but now I'm just gonna share some remixes I really liked in the past couple weeks. Kinda trying to set stuff to the winter-mood we have here. You know, fog and rain and colder than fall should be. I'm in between dancefloor-exploding hotness that melts the coming snow and the ice-queen coolness and beauty that has its home in the clouds around the mountaintops. So my choices are: [...]

Suicide Sundaes – stop your grinnin’ and drop your linen. Every Sunday electblake and jsully of Earmilk will bring you the weeks dirty servings, and some old favorites through a throwdown-throwback to simpler times. A time when bangers were big, remixes were bigger, the bassline bled, and we didn’t care about anything as long as came in kicking and left screaming. To hell with sketchy sunday, we want to shove another dragon down the hole. This week we're bringing you some bangers from throw down specialists like MSTRKRFT and LA Riots, [...]

Ever since Russ Chimes first started making waves on the blogosphere waaay back in 2007 he's gone from strength to strength. Unleashing quality production after quality production. 2009 has seen him make the big waves and you know, it's quite cliched to say it but '2010 will probably be his year'. He's currently super-busy working on new original material and remixes including a track called 'Don't Wait For Me' for some guy called Fabio Lendrum . The original tune sounds pretty cool but imagine what it'll sound like once it's been 'Chimestered'. I cannot wait [...]

So checkk checkk one two, and check out these new tunes (And crank em' loud) DISCLAIMER: *ALL OF THESE ARE HIGHLY RECOMMENDED * [...]

Songs to enjoi the weekend thoroughly. Chromeo - Night By Night (Siriusmo Remix) ( alt ) Marina & The Diamonds - Mowgli's Road (Russ Chimes Remix) ( alt ) Plasticines - Barcelona (Rory Philipps Remix) ( alt ) Robbie Williams - Bodies (Fred Falke Remix) ( alt )
Seriously! Ever since these two reMixes of Marina And The Diamonds forthcoming single, ‘Mowgli’s Road’ (Originally the B-side of ‘Obsessions’), dropped into the electronic rumors inbox I haven’t been able to stop listening to them. And don’t make me pick between the two, I couldn’t do it. Mille ’s rework is upbeat with a bouncing bassline. It’s arpeggios and strings brilliantly capture the epicness of the original while Valerie man Russ Chimes brings his 80’s styled disco funk to the track and then hits you with massive electro breakdowns. [...]

Har under en tid nu försökt tentaplugga som bara den, men kommer hela tiden på riktigt bra ursäkter till varför jag borde göra annat. Annat, som typ att vakna en morgon (helst i en thailändsk bungalow) och inte behöva tänka på skolarbete. Ett tag var det Lotto och Drömvinsten som hägrade men det funkade inte. Poker har jag ju en del bekantingar som lyckats bra med, men jag har inte tålamodet till att sitta framför datorn så länge (inte heller talangen heller för den delen). Men så kläckte jag idén att man kanske borde pröva casinospel. Roulette och spelautomater, det [...]

If you dig Dreamwave-Music it is an absolute enrichment of your life to be in a mailinglist & circle of friends of a Dreamwave-collective-Managemen t. After felling in love with Valerie Collective from France we situate our second fondness at the Binary-Headquarter in the States. And it's even the best enrichment if any single publication of these collectives place their musical bullet directly into your heart. After sharing the first 2 singles of Binary next release Binary Presents: LA Lights 2 weeks ago it is time again to flood 2 new [...]
+ Marina & The Diamonds - Mowgli's road (Russ Chimes remix) (via popjustice )

Eric Testroete has this photo ensemble running on vimeo that is quite worth the 7 minute admission. It's his trip to Japan flashing before your eyes, literally. I had this general idea mapped out to take video/images of my frequent trips to San Francisco and make a similar presentation using this very song All My Friends by LCD Soundsystem . It obviously works well and I was obviously beat to the punch. Great song. cocoip [...]

LA Lights is the debut compilation from Binary Entertainment . It's compilation which showcases their trademark dreamwave sound. It features 2 tracks from each of the 7 Binary artists. It's nearly impossible to pick a highlight from it because my favourite track on the comp is always changing. If you weren't convinced by last weeks post about Binary, I have further material to hopefully convince you that this is an comp more than worth your time. We have some remixes of NightWaves 'Fascination', a delicate, dreamy track that could be taken from a good [...]
