![Dubstep Roundup Vol. 30 – 4.20.2012 [Knife Party, Above & Beyond, Picture Book, Chromeo, and more...]](http://cdn.elbo.ws/posts/4230526_lg.jpg)
Its Friday boys and girls; how good it feels. In the middle of planning my next Lights & Music event, I decided to dust out the old Itunes when I found this dubstep roundup that was meant to go up a few weeks ago. Sorry about that guys. I'm still trying to find a balance between all of the projects I've taken on in the last year. This roundup reflects the much more melodic side of dubstep; which frankly is what I prefer. So, in an attempt to just get this bad boy up on [...]
A spot of sun-tinged musical nostalgia for you today. That's if a track a year old qualifies for nostalgia? "Sunshine" first cropped up last spring, or maybe even before that. It's just so long ago, that I struggle to remember the exact date. The 2011 version was beautiful in its simplicity, an entrancing dance beat topped with alluring vocals. The track is courtesy of brothers Dario Darnell and Lorne Ashley, also known as Picturebook. The brothers originally hail from New York, but were raised in Manchester. For the past 3 years they have been based in Liverpool. Perhaps "Sunshine" was [...]
Some poppy sounds from the brothers Dario Darnell and Lorne Ashley aka Picture Book with Greta Svabo Bech, who you might remember from the deadmau5 single "Raise Your Weapon": Hannah Cohen's "Child Bride" and her melancholic melodies: Wrongkong's crazy video for "Dear Euphoria": My Second Surprise's video for their folky Beirut-like track "Bring The Sunshine", directed [...]
Picture Book just announced a free Extended Mix download of their acclaimed single, "Sunshine", taken off their remix EP, At Long Last: The Mixes, out this April. Sunshine features the stunning vocals from Greta Svabo Bech of Deadmau5's "Raise Your Weapon". The Extended Mix is produced by Hugo Leclercq, better known by his stage name as Madeon.
Picture Book's Dario Darnell releases his second round of Dreamy Drum Sessions - this time with some help from Calvin Harris' Flashback. This video is pretty sick. Picture Book's new EP, At Last, is out now. Enjoy!

Hello world, you can call me The Boulevardier. This is my first guest post for Remix86 and all I can say is I'm very excited to part of this wonderful blog space. I am on the other side of the globe to the other three current contributors, being based out of Auckland, New Zealand. I pass my time studying, reading, blogging, snowboarding, partying, and being a radio and club DJ. I have an indescribable love for music- Jazz, Hip Hop, Soul, Funk, Disco, House, Chillwave, Synthpop, Filter and everything in between. I am personally a big fan of Justin Faust [...]
Justin Faust just released this upbeat, melodic, remix featuring vocals from Greta Svabo Bech, who you may know from deadmau52 Raise Your Weapon. The original track was great, but Faust adds some electro flare to give it a little more of a kick. Check it out! Preview: Download: Picture Book - Sunshine (Justin Faust Remix) [...]
You might not have heard of Picture Book before, but Justin Faust 's remix of their track "Sunshine" will get you curious enough to check them out. The duo from Manchester put out a four track EP featuring Grammy nominated vocalist Greta Svabo Bech just this past month. The first track, "Sunshine," was lucky enough to be given Justin Faust's funky touch. The remix is dreamy, melodic, disco and all around feel good. <iframe src=" http://w.soundcloud.com/player /?url=http%3A%2F%2Fapi.soundcl oud.com%2Ftracks%2F37973461&sh ow_artwork=true" frameborder="no" scrolling="no" width="100%" height="1663> If that remix put you in a groovy place, I highly suggest taking [...]
Justin Faust produces a stomper remix for Picture Book 's ' Sunshine '! Picture Book released their first commercial EP 'At Last' early 2012. The four track EP was co-written and recorded with Grammy nominated vocalist Greta Svabo Bech, who featured on Deadmau5′s 'Raise Your Weapon'. Now the stellar EP receives Faust 's 'gangsta swing' treatment giving ' Sunshine ' that extra little punch. Also be sure to check out the official video for the original version of ' Sunshine ', very cool.

Well bugs, it's been a while. Trying to figure out the best way to work Bounce was no simple task, but it looks like we've finally got a handle on it. This newly hosted site is polished, functioning faster then ever, and we're ready to go. Thanks for sticking with us through the past 2 weeks of post-less-ness, but now we're back for good, and re-starting off with a bang. At Noon PST, we've got a big Ultra Ticket Contest going down, but for now let's hear some music. Since this winter has been relatively warm for both [...]
Just a few random tracks to brighten your day! Brand new remix of Picture Book by Justin Faust , the kind of song that makes you wish summer was already there. Picture Book - Sunshine (Justin Faust remix) [click to download] | HTML5 | And old Ryskee remix by Fare Soldi [...]
This has been floating around for a while now, it's been playlisted here a lot so I have no excuse as to why we haven't posted it before. We featured the original of Picture Book and Greta Svabo Bech 's 'Sunshine' a while back but just never got round to pimping the awesome Justin Faust reMix. Well, the man has just posted it to his SoundCloud account, so what better time to rectify our oversight. We thought the original was a really catchy track, but a little to Euphoric fluff for [...]
Picture Book are brothers Dario Darnell and Lorne Ashley, born in New York and raised in Manchester. And, yes, they are related to August Darnell (Kid Creole) but we shall try not to hold this against them. Free download of the dancefloor friendly Hogo Lecercq remix. The original mix of Sunshine (with vocalist Greta Svabo Bech) is a perfectly innocuous piece of dance pop chart bothering fodder. The Dreamy version is, frankly, stronger since the vocals get more play. It reeks of suntan, sangria and disappointing holiday sex. The Justin Faust version goes [...]
The Oscars are this Sunday, and 2011 was a forgettable year in cinema. I can't honestly say that I've seen a great movie in a long time, though, I've only seen four out of the nine movies up for "Best Picture." The stage appears to be set for "the Artist" to win big in which makes Harvey Weinstein look like a genius. The one movie I regret not catching while in theatres in 3D is the Martin Scorsese film not starring Joe Pesci, "Hugo," based on the children's book. "The Help's" supporting cast should win "Best Supporting [...]
Picture Book are brothers Dario Darnell and Lorne Ashley, born in NY and currently living out of Manchester UK. The youthful, bright and busy nature of the track spills from their youth although the vocal accompanier of Greta Svabo Bech heels this as a proper world dance track. Hugo Lecercq is actually a new moniker of young French gun Madeon and could possibly be a slightly more commercially appeal-able sou nd as shown across the "Sunshine" track. What do I like? The pop sensibility with a lifting body, arching melody and painless [...]
Picture Book are sibling duo Dario Darnell and Lorne Ashley. Born in New York City and now based in Liverpool, the pair had a good footing into the industry, with their father, August Darnell, being the lead singer of the legendary musical group, Kid Creole and the Coconuts. Their debut EP was crafted whilst they both studied at Liverpool and although the sound fits under the genre category of electronica, inspiration has seemingly come from all parts of the spectrum, with additional help from Grammy nominated vocalist Greta Svabo Beck. Think Deadmau5. Think 'Raise Your Weapon'. [...]
