For blot en uge siden, hvor det overraskende nok også var torsdag, kunne vi præsentere den 15. udgave af Five For Thursday , på vores blog. I dag føjer vi et 0 til enden, men denne gang hander det om at vi nu har rundet 150 stk. skrevne indlæg. Vores mål var ca. et indlæg om dagen - da vi kun er lidt over et halvt år gamle, så har vi jo egentlig holdt det meget pænt. Vi ønsker hermed jer alle en rigtig god weekend. Smæk musikken på din iPod og nyd den, det bedste du overhovedet har [...]
Za młody jestem, by mieć sentyment dla lat osiemdziesiątych. Może za późno podłączyli mi kablówkę, może to kwestia doskonałego smaku, ale z dekady cekinów i kobiet-manekinów niewiele przyczynilo się do ukształtowania mojej muzycznej mikowatości. Niektóre piosenki wkradają się do głowy bezwiednie. Nie zawsze mi to przeszkadza: Jestem dzieckiem Najntisów. Ich kolorowy triumwirat trwa już od kilku sezonów, a ja się klepię po udach, pokrzykując uuuu-uuuu!! Nie sposób jednak nie docenić żywotności ejtisowych tematów. Ejtis w temacie. Skurwiel w tomacie. Bałns. stara raszpla nie rdzewieje: Madonna - Into The Groove (Sidechains [...]

House is coming back...or did it ever readlly leave? I'm so glad that Sidechains is getting so much blog attention....its well-deserved. He's been creating a lot of musical buzz (prob due to the fact that people are dying for something other than distortion and fidget) and pulling bits and bobs from old house, filter house, disco, etc. Yes, please give me some tracks that can snuggle up next to Black Box or Fingers Inc. . 'In the beginning there was jack......' and now there's Sidechains. Sidechains - Dr [...]

Play Five fait partie des 13 blogs sélectionnés par Streetkiss pour proposer un morceau dans la " World Blogs Best Playlist " édition " Love Spring 2008 ". Du coup, j'ai choisi Johnny Neon, mon coup de coeur de l'année, et Lazerkill , le track que j'avais proposé en exclu sur Play Five, mais qui mérite d'être plus amplement diffusé ! Le principe de proposer un morceau pour la playlist incluait aussi de joindre un petit texte (en français et en anglais) pour justifier son choix. Du coup ça donne ça [...]

Le principe est simple : 13 Blogs , 13 morceaux pour attaquer avec amour le printemps ! Nous avons contacté 13 blogs musicaux parce que ce chiffre porte bonheur et que nous les apprécions. Nous leurs avons demandé de sélectionner leur meilleur morceau pour attaquer le printemps. Après une première expérience concluante avec "The Early 2008 World Blogs Best Playlist" , place à ce second opus que nous avons modestement appelée "The Love Spring 2008 World Blogs Best Playlist".

My favorite Francophile Spaniard, Sidechains, is back with another disco'd out, soulful ballad full of walking basslines and sweet vocals, smooth enough for the finest Crydamoure releases. If...

It's a few days ago, when we received following footage from Alex Ferrer, who shipped around a mail form the south to introduce his project Sidechains , a new producer from Barcelona. You can meet a talented fresh, funky, housy, blasting mix of tunes, that seem to be unable to hold still, won't let you standing frozen on the floor, won't let you turn down the corners of your mouth and puts you in a great, auspicious humor for the night. Check Sidechains latest publication "Waiting so long" sneaking around the corner with [...]

Sometimes I hate living in Germany. I've just tried again to preorder Hadouken! 's debut on vinyl, but it's not even listed on amazon or Warner yet. Coming to preorder music, Germany is very limited. Being a poor student, I can't afford purchasing it in the U.K. or any other foreign country. Well, guess I just have to be patient. Same goes for Apocalypso which drops in the UK and Australia in the next few days, but in Germany in a month. A month ! I do want to support the artists [...]

photo: Jack Walsh it is such a satisfying feeling for me when i find music that is perfect for walking.. walking long distances is always such a punish. and because it is an active activity, dancey beats that are good to walk to are often good to bust out in a dj set.. the other day, blouse got sent a bunch of tracks from Spanish producer Sidechains but because i was so busy i didnt get a proper chance to listen to it til i was walking home [...]

Image cred: Unknown. Not a lot of fancy facts in this one-just some goodies sent our way. Keep em' coming! Disco for some, electro for others, and the Rascal for everyone. Big uppins to Los Angeles' own Luv-Tek for pumpin' out tunage via his collab duo newly named Lazrtag . LT swears by the hairs on his Vihny-Vihn-Vihn (inside joke) that there are big things to come for this two headed monster. Barcelona also threw us some 128kbs goodness from Sidechains . Someone get these guys a graphic designer, and they'll be [...]

Ok, it's the middle of the week, my job hasn't killed me yet, and with some fortune and some good tunes who knows, I might just live to see the week end...There's much to look forward to anyhow, and first up is CCC excellent ep Pepites which should be out on the 22nd of this month . I'm really looking forward to that after hearing an intresting preview the other day. It's always intresting finding your friends hidden talents. I'm feeling loads of envy of my good friend the prince for actually [...]

It's been a calm weekend since im still on penicillin after my little throat complaint. On friday I spent several hours with my royal friend the Prince and a highly placed leader from Central America, making new propaganda posters. This sunday is'nt like most other sundays filled with dread over the loss of memory from the previous night. Today my anxiety is rather conserning the future of electro (as I know it) to come. What has happened to the french electro scene? I need a bright star on the dark music skies, [...]

I love Barcelona. I'd have to say it's one of my favorite places on earth. It has an unmatched attitude towards expression and the arts and couples that with the laid back Spanish demeanor and the beautiful urban architecture. From this description alone you would think that there is an endless stream of amazing music dance music flowing endlessly through its city streets. Well it seems to me that this wasn't the case at all until recently, at least in our niche corner of the musical universe, when suddenly, we started hearing multiple electro artists springing up from the depths. [...]
I'm sorry for the lack of post during the past week, but I was suffering from very severe illness...well, for me it felt like it was very severe, but in reality it was nothing more than a flu. Anyways, since it it this time of the year - no, I won't be putting up endless Christmas songs, phffsh - the 'Top of 2007' lists keep rolling over the blogs, and I thought, I should do my bit. So, right now
