I'm always drawn at the site of micro structures, pods and/or any type of compact-living unit. I guess you could say it's the kid in me who always loved his club house (I took over a shed in our back yard, and turned it in to my personal headquarters). Also, a few years back, while living in Chile , I took a trip with 3 friends out to Pan De Azucar , a Natural Park where the desert meets the ocean, for what was supposed to be a 2 week camping trip. Fascinated by the sense of community [...]

These last couple of leaks off of The Coldplay Sessions is really starting to get me amped for February 7th; M.i just dropped "Bubble" a few days ago, and I can honestly say that I'm digging the hell out of it. As I've mentioned before, M.i has a super laid back flow, and he makes it very easy to like his music. He brings along Brooklyn native Scienze to do some damage on his beautiful jazz influenced beat. This Austin native is becoming one of my favorite emcees; this dude has skills on the mic and [...]
M.i just released "Bubble" the latest single off his upcoming mixtape, "The Coldplay Sessions". This song features M.i's classic flow, mellow sound and excellent produciton quality. When "The Coldplay Sessions" is released, M.i is going to show everyone that he is #NotSomeKid. Preview: Download: M.I - Bubble (feat. Scienze)|Mediafirej Previously: Jack Johnson Sessions (Mixtape)| Crawl [...]

Austin TX emcee M.i returns with his single, "Bubble" off the upcoming project, The Coldplay Sessions . The single is a flip of Coldplay's "High Speed" from their 2000 album. Joining M.I. on the track is Brooklyn emcee ScienZe. DOWNLOAD| M.i (Ft. ScienZe) - Bubble
NPR gave these guys a lot of play on their 2011's Biggest Discoveries and Surprises show. I'd never heard of them, but this album is awesome. It took 7 years to make. Here's what Bob Boilen had to say: It's a look and a study, in song and in sound, of life in a small Scottish town. It doesn't romanticize it — it paints sort of hard pictures of what life is like there and what people think. King Creosote & Jon Hopkins - "Bats in [...]
Via the widget above, stream the new George & Jonathan album, Beautiful Lifestyle . For those of y'all who loved that Rustie album, Glass Swords , this is a you-must-listen-to-this kinda moment. G&J don't exactly make video game music, but it's obvious that their stuff is heavily influenced by it. I wouldn't go as far as to call this "8-bit" music. Actually, it's more like 16-bit. Super Nintendo is the superior console. We all know that. Anyway, if you're down for a set of twelve fun, colorful, bubbly bangers, then stream [...]
Dusty Bubbles is exactly how you'd picture it . Russian producer Alexander Goryachev, 813 , gets the sounds slowly wafting above the ground until they pop. Several tracks seem like they've been adapted from 8-bit video games and turned absolutely funky. He says, "Welcome to the future of boogie beat," and there's no better way to describe the album's grumbling synths and upbeat vocal samples. If this is the future, well, I think we'll all be happy. To quote the great Doc Brown, "If my calculations are correct, when this baby hits eighty-eight miles per hour... you're gonna see some serious [...]

Ну что ж, один из моих самых любимых битмейкеров 813 намеревается выпустить свою вторую ипишку на RAD . Да такую, что все герои боевиков из 80-х сразу перевернуться в гробу! В связи с этим делом, ребята решили поRADоваться 22-го октября вместе со всеми ценителями синтов, цыпочек в розовых купальниках и Майями-грува. Прямая речь: 'В этот раз презентацию четвертого релиза Mood серии мы решили провести в уютном баре Lilienthal. Серию продолжает наш сподвижник 813 . Если вы помните - он уже успел отметиться на RAD своим дебютным релизом около года назад. Саша Горячев [...]

Саша! Саша делает вещи. Новый релиз 813 называется «Dusty Bubbles» и у него есть все шансы быть ещё круче прошлогодней кассеты « Back in Space Jungle ». Выйдет всё это на RAD , которые уже готовят отменную вечеринку по этому поводу. 22 октября «Dusty Bubbles» будут выжигать колонки тут .
Grandiose Kunstintalation des in Frankfurt arbeitenden Künstlers Tomás Saraceno . Er erschafft mit seinen an Seifenblasenartigen Gebilden ein Stadt in den Wolken. Mit hängendenen Gärten und fliegenden Menschen. Und im Grunde würde ich jetzt eigentlich nichts lieber machen als mich in solch einem Bubble Ding zu legen und dabei einen Mix feinster Elektronischer Musik zu hören. Besuchen kann man das alles übrigens zwischen dem 15. September 2011 - 15. Januar 2012 im Hamburger Bahnhof in Berlin. Sollte also jemand sich dort in [...]
"The internet is showing us what it thinks we want to see." Those are the words of political activist and internet enthusiast Eli Pariser. Highlighting the potential dangers of personalized search results in the form of filter bubbles, this recent TED talk discusses the evolving nature of internet search. Where in the past, our searches may yield the same or at least similar results in the form of relevant websites, filter bubbles are effectively creating personalized universes of information that are specifically tailored to us. On the surface, this may seem like a positive [...]

LA/Montreal-based duo LOL Boys have presented a hypermodern opus on the current state of electronic music. Bubbles mimics just about every uptempo sound that's influenced producers over the last decade, which I originally wasn't that into, but going deeper into tracks like Touch Them and Feel Them displayed an obvious understanding or structure and prowess. This is all very surprising considering the last thing I heard from them was a Korallreven remix we wrote about a year ago. Fortunately the album has been [...]
LOL BOYS han sacado nuevo ep, después de haber escuchado su anterior release LDR, creo que no hace falta decir mucho sobre ellos, sólo queda gritar una y otra vez que son la booomba. En Bubbles, vais a encontrar sonidos rave, mucho tropicalismo, ritmo y más ritmo e incluso un poco de caribean reggae que [...]

" This is a big release! Where Latin America went up north to meet the duo, Jerome Potter from Los Angeles and Markus Garcia in Montreal. Together they are bringing Cocobass material that changes everything we have done so far. An amalgam of influences from Chicago's Dance Mania House to Airport Trance to Netherlands Bubblin' to Calypso. They are channeling up all the styles of tropical music to bring something completely unique and entirely dance floor ready. This release is also inspired by Jerome's pet named Bubbles who is [...]

Our friends over at Cocobass released this new LOL Boys EP on monday and it's already blowing up everywhere on the interwebs. While Cocobass is home to some of the most influential producers from Latin America, this might be their biggest release yet. LA based Jerome Potter and Montreal based Markus Garcia are the duo behind LOL Boys which in my opinion have been producing straight up fiyahs since I first heard of them a while back. Bubbles EP features some next level calypso, dutch house, bubblin' and even a little moombahton blending which clearly [...]
LOL Boys ( aka Markus Garcia and Jerome Potter ) not content with only producing some of the most unique genre spanning and quirky beats you can find, or their genius addictive black hole of a Tumblr , have now joined forces with Cocobass , a long running Venezuelan label for like minded, forward-thinking tropical/latin artists to get their music heard. Kicking off this ideal partnership they are offering their first EP for Cocobass , ' Bubbles ' an immense 9 track offering for FREE . This fantastic showcase of [...]

Bubbles es el nombre de esa perrita que ven allí. Es de Jerome P, tiene 17 años y ya casi es ciega. En el arte que con mucho amor hice para el nuevo release de la disquera más genial que he tenido jamás (la única lol) le coloqué ojos nuevos y yo creo que ya está empezando a ver mejor. Comosea, que el nuevo release de LOL Boys sea inspirado en una mascota es bien tierno, pero lo masiso que es el EP completo y la cantidad de descargas/blog posts que hemos tenido ha sido abrumador. [...]

Heartwrenchingly dedicated to the pet of Jerome from LOL Boys' dog (who is now 17 and blind), this new absolutely free LOL Boys nine track EP will tug at both your heartstrings and the muscles that operate the dancing/flailing motions of all important limbs involved. Released for free on Venezuelan label Cocobass Records, it combines their nearly endless influences ranging from subdued Chicago influenced house music to insomnia-informed 3ball to some homebrewed concoction of calypso, percussion based techno and bubblin' music, all nine tracks manage to take the theme of "(SOMETHING-ING) THEM" to [...]
