Dave Edwards is a New York producer with over 100,000 plays on his remixes of Mike Posner, Ellie Goulding, and Flo-Rida. His M.O. goes "if it sounds good on a guitar, it sounds good anywhere." He's starting a big 2012 push which will see him gigging out and touring, and is definitely one to watch. facebook.com/itsdaveedwards twitter.com/itsdaveedwards youtube.com/itsdaveedwards No related posts.

Hi there Sorry for the lack of activity lately, busy busy busy... Guess who just released a remix for Louis La Roche ? Our boy Magna ! It's part of LLR's remix contest for Untrue and it has all its chances to win in my opinion, brilliant balance of synths, violins, vocals and dubstep parts. Bonus : Vito 's March mix, 2 weeks late but eh, it's a good [...]

The Roches : The Troubles [ purchase ] "The Troubles" generally refers to the period of unrest in Northern Ireland between the late 1960's and the late 1990's. Ireland is a former colony of England, and won its freedom after a civil war in the 1920's. However, England retained control over the six counties of Northern Ireland. There was much violence during the Troubles, originating from protests against the British Army and the majority Protestant population by the Catholic minority. This song, off the Roches' self-titled 1979 album, makes [...]

Louis La Roche might as well be called Treasure Fingers Junior. La Roche, like TF (Ashley Jones), pumps out nu-disco jams at an unparalleled rate. Ever since I heard Louis La Roche's remix to Basement Jaxx's Raindrops, I've been infatuated. That classic catapulted the young London-based producer into the bloggosphere and he's only kept soaring. Given his latest productions, you can safely bet La Roche (aka Brett Ewels) is here to stay. Louis La Roche - Los Angeles by [...]

The Roches : Deck the Halls [ purchase ] The one constant in my family's holiday celebrations over the past 20 odd years has been The Roches' Christmas album, We Three Kings. The Roches were a band that my wife, whose tastes ran toward the folky, and I, whose tastes were a bit harder edged, both liked. We appreciated the beautiful and quirky harmonies, and the music snob in me was impressed by their work with Robert Fripp. In 1990, We Three Kings was released, and we [...]

David J Roch will be releasing his debut album August 22nd on Dram Records. His song "Dew" is promising for those craving something dark. His voice sounds like he's been broken into pieces and is now borderline menacing. I'm sure the word "haunting" will be used numerous times to describe this debut. What comes through in his songs more than anything is raw emotion. It sounds ready to soundtrack the climatic ends of prime time TV shows, which I mean in the best possible way. People will be all over this. [...]
David J Roch - Dew David J Roch is preparing to drop his debut album in about a month. Having had a snoop around the Soundcloud streams I think this is my favourite track. Somewhere between the fragile falsetto's of some of his earlier stuff and a heavier, slower, rolling rock music. Antony Hegarty meets the Seldom Seen Kid... kinda. marcus

In a market that is over-saturated by singer-songwriters, David J Roch certainly does stand out. He has one of those voices that explores the deepest depths to the highest of highs. His songs are painfully honest and it's no wonder why our friend Dee Caspary used Skin & Bones for his choreography last week on So You Think You Can Dance. That, AND it features Melanie who just absolutely melts my heart with each performance. If you are in the LA area between July 29th and August 14th and aren't hip to The Nvitational, [...]

Lucy Wainwright Roche , dochter van Loudon Wainwright III , mocht onlangs in de AB haar nieuwe album voorstellen als voorprogramma voor haar vader. Dat debuutalbum, dat er kwam na 2 ep's, bevat 11 songs en een bonus, Say Yes , een duet met Ira Glass . Wat meteen opvalt bij Lucy Wainwright Roche is dat ze een hele heldere stem heeft, die [...]
Good weekend, everyone? The rapture didn't occur. Or did it. Maybe for us hell is just more of the same, you know? Although if this is hell I have to admit I love it. Friday night my friends and I hit up some area bars and got joyously intoxicated like a beautiful perfect little family [...]

![Roch: Lightweight Bipolar Mania [Album Review]](http://cdn.elbo.ws/posts/3437674_lg.jpg)
Hip Hop music has less than subtly switched gears from it's former peddling of brassed out beats over rhythms that are either clever, vulgar, captivating, or all of the above. No, now days hip hop has been branded with a real artistic revolution, as well as some fine examples of diversity by adding elements of R&B, electronica, and even a bit of indie rock in the mix. And a stellar combination of all these elements can be found perfectly on Light Weight Bipolar Mania from the spectacular wordsmith and soul man known as [...]
It seems that Dan Deacon has hit a point where he pretty much just gets to do what he wants these days. It's well deserved with often strange results. The latest is his collaboration with filmmaker Jimmy Joe Roche . The two have teamed up to create "Hilvarenbeek," which is a short film that you can check out above. Dan Deacon tour dates are posted below. Dan Deacon tour dates: 05/20 - New York, NY - American Museum of Natural History 05/21 - Brooklyn, NY [...]
Leur nom pourrait presque tout dire, mais il ne dit presque rien: ils s'appellent « Bonaparte » et viennent de partout et de nulle part. Leur style est aussi très simple (ironique) à définir: un electro-disco- punk sous des airs de pop , parfois baroque, quand il n'est pas qualifié de trash ou de « japanische klassische musik » sur leur myspace. A la base de cette turbulence musicale et scènique il y Tobias Jundt, suisse naturalisé berlinois d'âme. Après un premier album écrit en Nouvelle-Zélande, un groupe s'improvise, et à celui-ci s'accole assez [...]

I've been slappin the Sebastien Tellier for a while now, but it was only until recently that I discovered his identity. It's always cool when some dope music comes from someone you wouldn't expect. When you have one of those "Damn I didn't know they looked like that," moments. Nonetheless, Sebastien is a special one. With seven albums under his belt, Tellier's 2008 album Sexuality is the artists most erotic work to date. It's deliberately electronic, and deliberately provocative, yet music for any occasion. Call it bedroom music, but what's in a genre nowadays. Download: [...]

After a blighted early attempt at a music career with the band Curbar, David J Roch reemerged with a new moniker: Little Lost David - used as a perfect analogue to suggest him reaching out on his own. Now, for a third time, he appears before us with his given name, his final chrysalis-to-butterfly transformation, turning all that sore misery into something beautiful and vibrant. Skin and Bones is the common link found between these two paths. From shaded, brittle vocals, either set deep in the mix or caught [...]

Label: 2011 Sony ATV Music Publishing Release date: 04/04/11 Link: Myspace Buy: Amazon Say what you want about David J Roch but one thing is for sure; he possesses an impressive set of pipes. Pretty outstanding actually, he can switch from bluesy baritone to soaring falsetto with not so much as a second thought – making his debut album Skin & Bones one that can't fail to make you sit up [...]
MUSIC FOR ANIMALS, THE FOREIGN RESORT, WAX FINGERS ( Holocene , 1001 SE Morrison) The Eric Bana-looking lead singer of Music for Animals has a really fucking great voice. Sometimes he's doing his best Robert Palmer impression, a kind of skeevy '80s come-on whisper, but there are hints in some of their best songs-especially the opening of "If Looks Could Kill"-that he could really open up and blow us away with something exceptional and possibly early Bono-ish. But for now, Music for Animals are wallowing in a retro groove, and that's fine. [...]
