So two out of 3 of my essays for my finals week are done. I think that gives me about 3 hours to celebrate before I start on my final one. (A 6 page paper about the future of skype and television, if you're interested). Luis Dubuc, formerly of The Secret Handshake, has a new project called Mystery Skulls and he has released a straight up banger. "Unstoppable" is everything I want in a dance track. Amazingly catchy hooks, a killer beat, and a heavy bass line. Check, check and check.
Wolves Like Us release new video for 'Secret Handshakes' before touring UK next week. That's all. There's a choice quote from one of their biggest fans here too.

This record is rather crude, but potentially very effective. No man or woman should grow bored of playing Eurodans , not ever, but there will come a time when you need something else with a bit of razmatazz, a bit of energy. As I previously mentioned, this does err a little to the right, but let the thing flow and the art - the nuances - seep out and transports this no-NRG, hat slapping beamer cross state into the jurisdiction of cool.

Have you ever heard a track and thought, "Wow, that's right on, but there's just too much going on between the vocals." Me too. That's why I always take the time to do some splicing and dicing to create an ideal mix. My philosophy is simple: In order to bring electro/house/techno to the mainstream, you've got to take the time to cut out all those extra beats. The process is a simple one. There's no need to get all technical about it (Girl Talk started out with a simple wave editor and I use Mixmeister Studio). So instead of laying [...]
You may have noticed that of late our posts here at TGTF have moved a bit more towards the mainstream. This hasn't been a conscious move - we just write about stuff that interests us. So when I get this remix by Designer Drugs of a Secret Handshake track, I feel bad. It's as mainstream as you can get, just the sort of thing that US college kids go crazy for. But I love it. It's a bit long and takes a minute to get really going, but it's perfect for summer. I'm sure there will [...]

photo: zacfisher Well Zane Low and Annie Mac played some brand new Bloc Party yesterday. The reception so far is mixed, some saying its a 'failed club track', but I wouldn't put it that way personally. What you have to accept with Bloc is that they're constantly moving forward style-wise (which is why some people think bar Silent Alarm they're poor, but its all down to taste at the end of the day), and so this does seem to have a more advanced 'Intimacy' feel. The piano is decent as is the [...]

The Secret Handshake is Luis Dubuc, a one man show from Dallas, TX.. TSH's new album, My Name Up In Lights is out now.
