Halloween weekend was last weekend and as all of you know I absolutely HATE Halloween on so many levels its not even funny. BUT Im going to keep things a little festive today and make MIAMI HORROR the topic of this Music Monday Im sure MIAMI HORROR is old news to the good majority of you who actually read the Music Monday posts but I really dont care. I have been listening to M.H. on repeat for a week straight and I can't seem to get enough. Since there are [...]
Pic: by Mr. Curieux, monsieur-curieux.blogspot.com Nous sommes déjà à la fin d'octobre. Le souvenir des vacances s'est définitivement évaporé de nos esprits pour laisser place à la monotonie des cours. Le froid vient de reprendre (durement) ses droits et Noël approche mais pas à grands pas, du moins pas encore (ce qui n'explique pas pourquoi nos boîtes aux lettres comment déjà à être acculées sous le poids des catalogues de jouets & co.). Quoiqu'il en soit, pour vous sortir de cette douce torpeur je vous propose les remixes suivants qui [...]
The Temper Trap are fucking great. Man, Australians are on fire at the moment. I just downloaded their album today (delayed I know) because as i was watching the news this morning, I heard they got a fair few ARIA nominations. Siq bro. Btw, for all you foreigners, the ARIAs are a low budget version [...]
First off, we don't like the name Cagedbaby , but this matter of preference was conveniently chucked aside when we heard some of their stuff. Having remixed the likes of Armand Van Helden , Sneaky Sound System and most recently Empire of The Sun , they have gotten under our skin time and again. This time round they are releasing their 2nd single " Medicine ", which is a stunning piece of production, making it a must have when it comes out Oct 12! Having [...]
Well last weekend I did my first DJ gig. My DJ friend dragged me along to a DJ course which culmated with us DJing a catwalk. It was worse than it sounds haha. The models were all kids and they played videos during our sets, it was incredibly annoying. It probably made me look better in the end as I didn't have to do as many transitions. During the course we got to play with some Pioneer CDJ-1000s and my friend & I were under the impression we would be using them for the [...]
Whoah, talk about a break from blogging... Apologies my dearest readers for putting the smoke machine on low but now things are about to get heavy. JD is overseas (I think..?) for a tiny bit so I better put this party into full gear. Let's cut to the chase: Bang Gang's and ex-Riot in Belgium big boy Beni released his killer track "Maximus" a while back on Kitsune, featuring Sam Sparro on the vox. A remixes EP also followed dropping late last month but the mix you are about to grab [...]
Montreal DJ/producer CFCF (aka Michael Silver) has repeatedly won me over with his electronic pop remixes of HEALTH, Sally Shapiro, The Presets, and Woodhands. Now he sets his sights on an album of... [go to the website to read the rest of the article, download mp3s and more]
Suicide Sundaes – stop your grinnin' and drop your linen. Every Sunday electblake and jsully of Earmilk will bring you the weeks dirty servings, and some old favorites through a throwdown-throwback to simpler times. A time when bangers were big, remixes were bigger, the bassline bled, and we didn't care about anything as long as came in kicking and left screaming. To hell with sketchy sunday, we want to shove another dragon down the hole. This week we bring you more from our boy HAEZER and crowd [...]
Et voici le 100ème article ! Celui ci sera dédié à Pance Party . Alors tout d'abord c'est quoi ? c'est qui ? Pance Party est composé de trois jeunes de 23 ans , Andy originaire de Philadelphie , Eric originaire de la Bay Area et Et Ben (plus affectueusement appelé Swardy) venant du Maine [...]
The Presets - Talk Like That (CFCF Mix) Read my review of The Presets @ NYC's Webster Hall here. In May, The Presets debuted a clip for 'Kicking & Screaming'. MP3: The Presets - Talk Like That (CFCF Mix)
VISITOR . Formerly Cobra Dukes, (aka What She Wants before that) this London duo belt out euphoric, almost camp, stadium power pop anthems to perfection - a feat that I dont think even the Killers can come close to, so people should stop namedropping Brandon Flowers' band. Still, they are so Girls Aloud ! The boy version. In a super good way. Synth heavy like the Presets with big vocal pop vibes like Frankmusik . Los Feeling is produced by one of Australia's finest purveyors of synth pop, Diamond [...]
Hello everyone, and welcome to the second installment of Dan's Dance Party. I would be Dan, and I'll be showing up on your glowing rectangle every Thursday to make sure you have been, will be, and are currently breaking it down, with much gusto and vigor. There's slightly less caffeine in my bloodstream this weak, so those readers who were too old or too tired to handle me last week might have a better shot - to the rest of you, rest assured, I'm just as amped about this week's column. Why am I amped, you ask? Well, [...]
God, I love this group. Today marks the official release of the Sneaky Sound System 's fourth (and final?) single, "It's Not My Problem." The song is but one of the many terrific tracks off of Sneaky's 2008 album 2 , a devastatingly overlooked (referring to America, obviously) collection of dance-pop gems a la Cut Copy and The Presets . Be sure to watch the video above, created by fan competition winner, Maik Hempel . It's fun, it's adorable...and even more impressively, it's fan-made! Poor little cartoon [...]
It's been a while between mixtapes but I've returned with a collection of tracks that have been frequenting my dj sets over the past 4 - 5 months. You'll noticed that there's a more prog-tech 'after 3am' style to this mix, which explains the title. 'This Ain't No Disko' - Mixed by A.D.D [ZSHARE] 1. Jimi Hendrix - And The Gods Made Love 2. SabastiAn - Dolami 3. Clap Rules - Old Sequencer 4. DJ Agent 86 - Acid Management 5. 101 - Rock To [...]

i'm currently working on about 209348203984 music wise and they're all mid-motion. whenever that happens, this blog takes a backseat. lots of changes, big exciting things for existing nights, and a new mix i can't wait to unleash. it's sultry as fuck and wayyyy out of league of what i've done previously. i would post a bunch of songs from the tracklisting but i realize they're all on this site already. how about a classic? the presets - this boy's in love (lifelike remix) [...]
Glasnost is like a happy medium between The Presets (vocals) and Cut Copy (instrumental), leaning more towards the disco-pop sound of the latter. It's pretty surprising to read that this four man band is based out of Houston, as I would have presumably guessed that they were Australian. Either way, "No Survivor" is pretty perfect.
