Es curiosa la historia de Marcus Lambkin, el irlandés que firma su música como Shit Robot . Debutó discográficamente hace tres años, cuando tenía 37. Nos dejó marcando ocupado con un excelente conjunto de canciones y luego no supimos más en un par de años. A mediados de 2012 lanzó un single doble y de nuevo desapareció. Ahora parece haber vuelto más decidido a continuar con su buen trabajo. "Feels Real" nos remonta a la época dorada del sello DFA , con la voz más aguda de lo normal de Luke Jenner (The Rapture), quien no [...]

Todavía no nos reponemos del cierre del Espacio Cellar. Ahí vivimos algunas de las mejores fiestas de los últimos años, varias de las cuales han pasado por nuestra memoria en estos días. Una los top 3, sin dudas, fue la celebración antes del primer Primavera Fauna, con el dúo suizo Round Table Knights como plato fuerte. Gran parte de lo que hizo esa noche especial fue lo que también hace que el mundo de la electrónica esté atento a sus pasos. El último de ellos ve la luz hoy: se trata del single "I Just Want", [...]

Berlin based power house label Exploited comes through again with another smoothed out, funked up deep house tune that’s sure to get some spins. Already gaining the support of Tensnake, Tiefschwarz, and Zombie Disco Squad, “I Just Want” takes a unique perspective on modern house and gives the instruments, percussion and vocals equal room to breathe while maintaining the cohesiveness needed for a solid house track. Definitely an earlier night slow burner that’s going to get head nods. “Whoo” is a remix of NYC post punk masters The Rapture original track “Wayuh.” It’s a disco tribute to a band that’s [...]
It's all gone a bit 2001 this month, with the return of The Strokes and Yeah Yeah Yeahs. As we were listening to Mosquito yesterday, we got to wondering about some of the less heralded bands from the garage and post-punk revivals that brought a whole heap of hype to NYC around the turn of the millennium. Some of the bands from that scene are still around and doing well, of course — Interpol spring to mind immediately — but the others... Well, we've put on our deerstalkers and done some digging. [...]
Graves Rapture 20th March Introducing the debut single from New York duo Graves. With lyrics and vocals by Ghanaian songstress Ria Boss and production from Alfie Lenox Rapture is a pop heavy electronic anthem that I cannot stop playing. The vocals are wonderfully weird and the production compliments the rough tone of them, as a [...]

Have you heard, Shufflers? Spring is here! And I don't know about you, but I'm so ready for this frigid, unwelcoming slop of a winter to be a thing of the past (for at least a solid seven months). This calls for a celebration. With music! With spring comes color and fragrance and sunshine and birds chirping... and all that other sappy shit. So, I've compiled a list of five songs for you to enjoy during this sweet, sweet transition. I hope you enjoy this blooming spring-inspired playlist! [...]

![[Listen] The Rapture: "How Deep Is Your Love" (Weekend Wolves Remix)](http://cdn.elbo.ws/posts/4833117_lg.jpg)
" How Deep Is Your Love " es una de las mejores canciones que aparecieron durante el 2011 , así que me parece que no fue ninguna sorpresa el hecho de que en su momento aparecieran un montón de remixes a este extracto del mas reciente álbum de The Rapture titulado " In The Grace Of Your Love ", el cual a casi dos años de su lanzamiento, ha sido desempolvado por Weekend Wolves para hacer su propia remezcla que, de ley, incluye esas texturas goth que vienen caracterizando su sonido, sin dejar de lado la parte [...]
![[Listen] Chromatics: "Lady" (Simon Iddol's Grace Of Your Love Edit)](http://cdn.elbo.ws/posts/4828600_lg.jpg)
Ok, nunca había llegado a tener la idea de que algún día Chromatics se estaría encontrando con The Rapture , pero ahora que ha pasado dentro de este 'edit' cortesía de Simon Iddol debo decir que ha sido una de las mejores cosas que le pudo pasar a la vida en esta semana. La verdad, no sé mucho sobre quién sea Simon Iddol, pero hace unos momentos me encontré con este 'no mash-up, no remix, just an edit' que hizo de la versión drumless de " Lady " de Chromatics , así como del remix que [...]

According to DFA.info former LCD Soundsystem/DFA Records co-founder James Murphy (pictured) has filed a lawsuit in Manhattan Civil Supreme Court against DFA Records co-founder Tim Goldsworthy . Murphy is seeking nearly $100,000 from Goldsworthy for allegedly failing to perform services he was paid for, owing outstanding loans, improperly using the company credit card and making unauthorized withdrawals from its bank accounts. The lawsuit filed on Friday claims that "attempts to amicably resolve this matter were rebuffed" by Goldsworthy. Goldsworthy is also accused of "breach of contract" and "unjust enrichment." Murphy and Goldsworthy worked together as a production [...]
![CHAIRLIFT HIGHLIGHTED ‘BLACK’ EVENT AT CAPITALE [PHOTOS]](http://cdn.elbo.ws/posts/4800435_lg.jpg)
Photos by Luis Ruiz Matte put together a night full of music and art/video installations for their party, called simply "Black," on February 21. Music was blasting from Vito & Druzzi (the Rapture DJs) throughout the night as lights scattered around the beautiful Capitale. Chairlift (covering for The Virgins , who canceled earlier) came to the stage at midnight. It was one beautiful set, and the dome-shaped bank-turned-venue was a perfect place for Caroline Polachek's vocals to echo and awe. Charlift [...]
The VPME Exit Calm's self-titled 2010 album garnered high praise indeed with perhaps our favourite comment coming from Todd Eckhart (producer of the excellent Ian Curtis biopic 'Control') who said of the band “ Pure Genius … and the avoidance of all that whiny, sexless bullshit passing for rebellion at the moment." Mani of the Stone Roses/Primal Scream was rather more to the point describing Exit Calm as “makers of proper f*cking music.” After two years spent writing and recording, Exit Calm are [...]
