Yay, first Discotexas post of the year! Today Portugal's best label release their first EP of the year - Helsinki duo Jay Lamar & Jesse Oliver 's "Diamonda" EP. In my best of 2011 list I wrote about Hannelulauri that the Finns are great at mixing disco with progressive house, and gave a few examples. Actually, another example I was thinking of were these guys. There simply are no other people, except the Big French guys, who can make progressive house so fresh and, well, so not cheesy. See for yourself: [...]
There’s an argument that geographically defined music scenes have become a thing of the past since the spread of the internet. But place remains vital when marketing new music, as if the creative communities of certain cities are more valued than others. If Villa Nah were from New York, London or Berlin, you’d have heard of them before now – conventional machinations would have made it so. (If you have heard of them, you’re in a minority. Award yourself a biscuit.) But they’re from Finland, so here’s the duo’s debut album, landing in the laps of UK listeners without any [...]

having always followed helsinki duo Villa Nah it was exciting to see the release of the 'midnight versions' ep, a futuristic deep space double including the frighteningly cosmic 'running on' with a monster remix from kebacid (Jesper Dahlbäck and Jori Hulkkonen) and 'all the days' with a dub and remix from half of keb Jori Hulkkonen . usually found on finnish label top billin the guys have moved (or have been persuaded) onto tigas seemingly endless pit of talent Turbo label and all for good reasons, this is good... like really good!

Villa Villa, Villa maravilla, pero esta vez desde Finlandia, y de los que ya se había hablado aquí en este blog cuando sacaron su disco de debut, ese elegante synth-Pop y brillante directo, y como su padrino es Jori Hulkkonen, quien colabora en producción, y ya les hizo un remix para el tema Rainmaker, y se los llevo a colaborar en un tema de su último álbum, ahora los mete en Turbo Records (Tiga) para sacarles un Ep de remixes a cargo de Kebacid (Jesper Dahlbäck & Jori Hulkkonen), del tema Running On y el mismo remezclando el All The [...]

BBC called Villa Nah’s debut album “the sort of sleek electro-pop that’d be gobbled up greedily by tastemakers and playlisters alike given sufficient notice.” Unfortunately, key VIP tastemakers and select playlisters were NOT given sufficient notice, so the Turbo hit machine stepped in to service the hypecloud, licensing these two brilliant ‘Midnight Versions.’ It should [...]
Tweet Oooh lookie lookie! More 80s-esque electronic pop! You thought the new new wave sound was starting to peter out, didn't you? Well, not yet. Check out the duo Villa Nah. Theirs is a tried and true early 80s homage that would sound snugly on a mixtape featuring the likes of say Mirrors and OMD. Incidentally Villa Nah, like Mirrors, recently finished a stint opening for OMD in the UK. Not too big a shocker as again like Mirrors, one can hear a distinct OMD influence in the sound of [...]

If you follow TBE, you know that I love getting Nurdy" to remixes, but I also like me some chill tunes. Enter Villa Nah, the laid-back electro-poppers from Helsinki, Finland. This Duo may hail from Finland, but they remind me of a chilled-out, darker version of Australia's Cut Copy. So here, take a time machine back to the days of Depeche Mode and check these three jams. P.S. Check their Myspace and listen to Bennys Burning. ♫ Helsinki 78-82- So Lifelike featuring Villa Nah ♫ Villa Nah- Ways [...]
Almost 50,000 revellers converged on the Isle of Wight last weekend for the 7th Bestival. With arguably its strongest line up ever, an eclectic mix of music (and weather) and a reasonably hedonistic crowd, Bestival 2010 was a huge success. The problems of poor sound quality on the main stage experienced in 2009 was dealt with by a newly located main stage, the results being of the highest order, even from the back of the viewing area. The last couple of years had led to complaints from regulars that as Bestival had got bigger it had lost its original charm. [...]
