I needed something to kick off this insanely gorgeous Thursday, something to take away my sleepiness and give me a dose of dance medicine, and YUP I think I found what I was looking for. It took a lot of digging and picking to find some valuable material on The Botaniks, but what I did find was pretty interesting and just what I needed. THE BOTANIKS are a twin-head-mutant from the post-nuclear global wilderness next door, cooking up their future sound by fusing found digital and analogue materials." [...]

The humour of The Botaniks’ Antarctica perils (as twice is always nice), right through to the graffiti tagged art of Germany - plus Antonio Cuna’s Sweater Beats and the duo of PLS DNT STP + Atlanta’s Decomposer , lay session to a wonderful story of pure sexiness & relaxation for any day in the workday week.

![Brandon’s TBE Digest 28 – [9.22.2011] New Jams, Remixes, & Covers!](http://cdn.elbo.ws/posts/3739517_lg.jpg)
Artwork by Jacob Youngblood Ziegler Brandon's TBE Digest is a place where I gather up all the recent jams that are worth a listen (or 10) but don't necessarily need their own post. Here you will find new tracks by known bands, remixes, covers, and even mashups if they are interesting. My favorites of the lot are in bold . I have got to start writing less in these descriptions. You guys come here for the music. Get to it. For more jams by any [...]

Without good Music, it feels like the dark ages. I haven't posted any posts for a while now, been too busy on Boring/Materialistic life that most of you choose to live. But now here I am with another playpost for all to tap their feet to or just simply to enjoy the beats. Afrobeta - Nighttime Mike Posner Feat Rusko - Shut UP M83 [...]
![[PLAYLIST] The Best REMIXES of 2011 – Part 1 (Jan-June)](http://cdn.elbo.ws/posts/3589417_lg.jpg)
Strap on your shufflin' shoes and make sure to stretch 'cause this list is an unmerciful messenger delivering jams of the highest quality. Some of these remixes have been banned by certain unenlightened govern ments for igniting dance parties and group high-fives so share with care. This edition is chock full of TBE Remix alums and a few newbies shaking things up. Everyone's favorite, Passion Pit, nab two spots while newbie Star Slinger clinches two more. In a massive non-surprise, RAC takes a heavy slice of this pie with a full 5 slots. Hey, it's not my fault the guy is a genius. Stay [...]

Não se sabe muito ainda sobre os The Botaniks , e a única coisa que tenho a respeito deles é um email que me mandaram. Lá, eles se auto-proclamam um "duo mutante vindo de um mundo apocalíptico com um som que une materiais analógicos e digitais". Bem, a descrição pode ser mirabolante, mas seu primeiro single é bem menos complexo do que aparenta. Mas "Fond of Jane", o primeiro single, realmente une o soul com elementos modernos e eletrônicos, misturando o antigo com o moderno. De acordo com texto ainda, a música é uma homenagem a um "eterno ícone [...]
![[MP3] THE BOTANIKS make music i’m damn FOND OF and i have to remember to tell JANE about them](http://cdn.elbo.ws/posts/3362607_lg.jpg)
a sting of bees on your upper lip, the thrill of the chase or a caffeine drip ♫ The Botaniks - Fond of Jane ft. Bernhoft If you went through Sunday's TBE Digest then you surely caught The Botaniks' spine-tingling remix of Local Natives. How awesome is it that the Norwegian duo are equally magical on their own? "Fond Of Jane" wiggles and thumps with heavy sensuality that almost seems like the music is flirting with me. It's like a beautiful woman eyeing me from across the dance-floor , her hips like tractor beams [...]

NEW RELEVENT JAMS ♫ Jamaica - 1324 Jericho / New Jamaica track from their debut album I've yet to be inspired to listen to. Anyone heard it? This one is kinda basic but fun. ♫ Operator Please - Catapult / Australia's Operator Please dropped a couple super-fun jams a [...]
Are these two steampunk clad dudes the Norwegian duo known as The Botaniks? I believe so. I dug around their Tumblr account , and this was the first photo they had uploaded, and the caption seemed to indicate this was in fact, The Botaniks . However, beyond this photo, not much is known about the producing team from what I can tell. And wow, their music is so good. I really feel like I'm giving you the password to the coolest speakeasy in town with this one. Cool is definitely the word to describe [...]
