Un mois après la sortie de Mother de Para One , c'est au tour de Das Glow de reprendre du service. Pour son second EP avec Marble , Damien Granier nous présente aujourd'hui Concrete composé de trois morceaux originaux. A la suite du succès rencontré par sa collaboration l'an passé avec Strip Steve , Das Glow s'emploie une nouvelle fois à développer une techno aussi rugueuse que groovy à travers le morceau éponyme Concrete , ainsi que Jenga dont le potentiel euphorisant ne laissera personne indifférent. Troisième et [...]
Hailing from France based in Berlin, Das Glow has been dubbed by just about every label you should care about. With cameo appearances dating back to 2008 on Boysnoize Records and carrying out original hits with Institubes on his shoulders, the man from Nice has continued to appreciate his upbringing by releasing his next EP on Marble Music. Three tracks make up Concrete , his latest outlook on not just genre specific sounds, but electronic music in general. Each number explores a different facet of groove and attitude, adding worth to the piece by drawing distinct lines [...]

It's amazing how often things that shouldn't work together do. For example, as a true Australian, I love Vegemite and cheese— don't try this at home, folks. This love, however, is intellectually counterintuitive; Vegemite should not be loved in conjunction with anything (to be honest, the thought of Vegemite by itself is, in a word, "vomitous"). On the other hand, unlike the erstwhile Vegemite, Western Australian vocalists Scarlett Stevens of The Flairz and Jordi Davieson of The Real Life Animators have never been considered vomitous. Together, fronting their unholy musical lovechild San Cisco, these two remarkable vocalists are even less [...]

Stuarto Glasser, host of the All Around the World Music Show, called me up a little after 5pm Friday and asked if I could fill in for him. Thinking it would be a great way to attract a few more listeners I agreed. I headed home and put together a playlist of some of my favorite indie artists from around the world. The first half of the list below aired as the split show: The Indie Music Show from All Around the World. I began with some lovable indie [...]
Oriel Joans give listeners what they expect from Swedish pop: infectiously light key progressions, trickly acoustics, and gorgeous melodies that evolve from folk-tinged whispers to grandiose hook-filled spectacles. Such is the case with "Chin Up", the Swedish quartet's new single. Stylistically, there's not much separating them from recognizable Swedish pop staples like Loney Dear or

The Los Angeles based producer Blazin put hip-hop drums against prismatic synths on his last beat tape, "Night Career", and it's two parts "Raw Like a Circular Saw" and "Relics of Psychedelics". Blazin has hooked up with his cohort (whose name I find to be genius) TuskegeeCadet on his latest mixtape, "Keep It 100" , a title that connotes the rhythmic artisanship you can expect from the pairing. All beats were handcrafted by Blazin and TuskegeeCadet , with Blazin handling mixing duties. TuskegeeCadet also helped out [...]

We've been fans of hazy electronic Swedish duo Korallreven from the first notes of theirs that we heard last year, and they've just announced their debut album An Album By Korallreven which will be released in November. To celebrate, they've shared their third single, "As Young As Yesterday", featuring vocals once again from Victoria Bergsman, who I've just found out is a member of The Concretes, the awesome band that I saw live totally by chance earlier this year. Good stuff from Korallreven as expected, and can't wait to hear the rest of the album.read [...]
Oi vey... what a week it's been. Sorry not to make it by here for a little musi-geek blurb for the last few days. But I'm here now with my mind still intact (or as intact as it ever is) and I count that a major victory against the world and its efforts to squash [...]

You can head over to Spinner to catch a full stream of the album which comes HIGHLY RECOMMENDED from yours truly. After you've had a go on that, Amazon is hosting a hell of a deal where you can purchase the new album for 4 dirty dollars. Seriously people, go support this dude and G ET ON IT
Photo by Werner Amann Brooklyn's Kevin Devine has never quite gotten the credit he deserves. He's been churning out superb solo records since 2002, not to mention his work as frontman of the now-defunct Miracle of '86. The singer-songwriter's foray into a solo career has covered a lot of ground with a lot to sing about - including the death of his father and the ultimate demise of his band. Now,

Good afternoon pop lovers. We have been a little quiet on the blog of late, but our club has been going strong with brilliant nights in July and August and we are back back back tonight with September's Love Machine club night. The last two nights have seen us branch into the often neglected world of megamixes, initially inspired by Beyonce's Destiny's Child mashup at Glastonbury (we still haven't quite recovered….), then moving into a Spice Girls one last month (no particular reason, although we realised we'd never played Stop at the club before - what [...]

I suppose you could call Don't Wait Animate (a.k.a. "DWA") a trip hop or dubstep band, but since I generally hate those genres-and I really enjoyed their latest EP, Overcast Up Concrete Down, I'm not going to classify them as anything other than Indie. The 5-member band from England sounds a little bit like Bloc Party used to (when BP was still good), but without the punky edge. Maybe if Bloc Party covered Unkle. Or were produced by Four Tet. The vocals and music combine with a sense of urgency and danger-desperate passion. These [...]

Sunny Sweeney's Concrete (Big Machine) is a multi-influential combination of vulnerability and swagger. The Texan native started out as a member of a comedy troupe in New York City and along the way was encouraged to embrace singing. The album is well-stocked with listenable, fun songs revealing Sweeney's persohality and penchant for dark humor. She's got the Gretchen Wilson it-is-what-it-is-and-tonight-I -don't-give-a-damn persona out in full force. Sweeney's expressive voice has a sweetness that can turn on its heel and take on a weary, jaded edge. On "Drink Myself Single Tonight" she launches into an amusing take [...]
