Photo: Hobogestapo So right now I am on my way to Playground weekender, and to brag about this I have decided to schedual a post, and by reading this you know I am going. This post is a rather lazy post, its pretty much the selection of the best tracks I have received in my inbox over the past few days. First up is the busiest man in electronic music at the moment, his name is Don Diablo, I have posted his tracks in the past when I have been in the mood [...]
Going to visit some big, big players in this post. It's still contemporary stuff and packed full of quality so you should be able to absorb plenty of lovely Recommender energy, it's just that some of you will already know these guys. We have to give everybody their slot on The Recommender and nobody deserves their pop more than the following kings... SEBASTIAN Looking back through the now plentiful Recommender archives we can't quite believe that we've never posted about this fella before! [...]
Having invited Ted & Francis to appear on a couple of their compilation, Kitsuné Music are finally dropping their first EP on April 20th. Floaty, Disco, ElectroPop will be the order of the day! Here's an appetizer. Ted & Francis - All Ways (zShare) (MediaFire) As a bonus, here's a reMix the boys did for Sébastien Tellier which didn't make it onto the single. Sébastien Tellier - Kilometer (Ted & Francis reMix) (zShare) (MediaFire) [...]
Allure , from Paris, France really gives the french touch a twist and adds another french touch. This is pop, jazz, electro and smooth elevator music at once. The production is so clean it could come from a robot. It just grows in to your brain, the melodies accompanied by vibraphone and sounds that really aren't there makes it so elegant you just forget, for a while. What really made me stunned was the remix of Sébastien Telliers 'L'amour et la violence', it's incredible. I'd be surprised if you would think otherwise. According to his myspace he's preparing [...]
might as well post some remix posts once in a while. Since there are so many remixes out there that you just have to hear. I wish I could write individual posts about them but, there just not enough time. We'll call this the dödsmix. Fair. I will start easy, 5 remixes, but oh yes they are some pretty heavy ones. Pegase , LVC , 80kidz , Moulinex and Freak You gets the honor to start the death row. Enjoy. (Right click to download) mp3 [...]
Aeroplane have been knocking out some fantastic reMixes these past 12 months (as well as producing some mighty fine tunes themselves!). each one a slice of Italo infused Nu-Disco excellence! Here are some of their best, starting with their most recent for Cobra Dukes . Cobra Dukes - Airtight (Aeroplane Mix) (zShare) (MediaFire) And one of my favourite Cut Copy songs. Cut Copy - Hearts On Fire (Aeroplane POP Mix) (zShare) (MediaFire) [...]
Тизер к новому синглу Sebastian Tellier - так хочется увидеть полноценное видео от этого безумца! Да и вообще, я как-то незаслуженно обходил вниманием импозантного француза, ждите подробного материала о нем в скором времени. Sebastian Tellier - Roche (Breakbot remix) (ysi) Sebastian Tellier - Kilometer (A-Trak remix) (ysi) PS как-то через раз медиафаер работает, так что часть файлов сегодня на зишаре.
Jeune artiste Parisien de la scène Electro-Pop, Allure transcrit dans sa musique toute la richesse de son parcours. Il a déjà exploré de nombreux styles (formation classique, jazz, hip-hop, …) mais c'est la musique électronique qui depuis 2007 lui procure l'énergie et la créativité dont il a besoin. Musicien et compositeur, il utilise le vibraphone en parallèle des machines afin d'habiller ses morceaux d'une sonorité classieuse et envoûtante. Cultivant l'art des contraires, ses productions sont à la fois douces mais incisives, élégantes et dansantes, subtiles mais accessibles. Une démarche qu'il développe actuellement pour la création [...]
MP3 : Sebastien Tellier - La Dolce Vita MP3 : Lucio Battisti - Acqua Azzurra Acqua Chiara
Wow.. Following what was probably the shittiest week ever.. I couldn't have had a better day.. Not only do I get the keys for my new downtown apartment tomorrow and get to go on a tour of Dallas and Fortworth on Friday.. but I just found out A-Trak and Boys Noize are comming to Austin for SXSW.!!! How sweet is [...]
It's been a while since the last post. Well, a while is a bit of an understatement but I'm back trying to get your attention posting tunes again. I've just moved to Stockholm and it will be interesting to see what the town has to offer. I'll try to keep you updated. First out. The number one song from last year that i wish I'd listened to more Does It Offend You, Yeah? - With a Heavy Heart Beautiful Breakbot [...]
Hey guys, I like browsing artists by label since they usually group DJs and producers by style and quality. A-Trak's label Fool's Gold is extremely influencial and contains artists that I profoundly like. First, A-Trak himself who had not produced much recently came up with his remix of Kilometer by Sebastien Tellier. Mr.Winter himself (Busy P) called it remix of the year. I would moderate this statement and say that the remix is very good but is not much of a surprise comming from one of the best DJ in the world. [...]
Ahh, my first post. Indeed, a make or break situation - you only get one first impression, and I've been bouncing the whole "which song do I post?" idea around in my head all afternoon. Do I hit you with some left-field shit or go for the banger? I finally settled on a track that R$S would be crazy not to post - A-Trak's rendition of Sebastien Tellier's Kilometer . Mixing Seb's natural sexiness with some killer violins and Trizzy's unique groove, you have my word - this one will rock [...]

Do you prefer fires or foes to be friendly? Your tigers mini or republic? Your Sebastiens with or without the acute accent (é)? Confused? You're not the only ones. For as many bands as we listen to on a daily basis and try to keep neat and organized in the muddled recesses of our brains , from time to time we can't help but become hopelessly and utterly confused between similarly named artists. But it doesn't have to be that way! Below, we countdown our top 10 mental stumbling blocks and try to assess the subtle [...]

Nashville has been non stop for me lately; A general toss up between going to or playing at shows, going on dates, engaging in stuff white people like (frequent trips to whole foods - you have to try the cherry cream soda) engaging in stuff black people like (Is the new Pharrell any good?). In my scattered state I was able to plan some time for music hunting and these were the jems that I cam up with. An A-Trak mix that refuses to be left off your next mix cd, [...]

Is it just me or has Ed Banger completely fallen out of the Electronic music scene? Hopefully they will be releasing a new compilation sometime soon. Well I just downloaded DJ Mehdi's latest remix and I must say I like it. I've always been really fond of DJ Mehdi , both as a DJ and a producer. Plus he's a really nice guy, I had a nice talk with him at a concert last year hah. I'll also throw in A-Trak's newly released remix of Kilometer by Sébastien Tellier , which I [...]
