![Best of 2011: Remixes [Top 11]](http://cdn.elbo.ws/posts/3935162_lg.jpg)
Looks like 2011 is almost coming to an end. Looks like various sites have been doing their Best of 2011 list. I still haven't finished compiling my list of singles and albums that came out in 2011. But for now, here is my Top 11 list of the best remixes. This is the first time I've done this. Hope you like it. Adele - Rolling In the Deep (Jamie xx Shuffle) [...]

(photo by cubagallery ) These are 50 tracks that defined 2011 for us, presented in highly unscientific ordered list form, with Matt's songs marked with a "-MG" and my choices with a "-TJ" next to them. To better spread the love, there's only one song per artist. Click the links next to the track to download / listen to the song and go to our Spotify Playlist to hear them all. Enjoy y'all! 50. Austra - Beat and the Pulse MP3 [...]
Bis zur Ankündigung von 50 Words For Snow , bei dem das mehr als offensichtlich sein sollte, hatte ich immer vermutet, dass Shapeshifting sich als das Winteralbum 2011 entpuppen würde. Denn auch, wenn hier und da Kastagnette oder Steel Drums als vermeintliche Sonnenindizien auftauchen, der Grundton ist ein kühl-melancholischer, der selbst Young Galaxy s warme Melodien mit frostigen Bassläufen in niedere Thermalregionen zieht. Und vor allem ist da die glasklare Produktion Dan Lissviks, durch die Peripheral Visionaries als eine weite weiße Eislandschaft wirkt über, die die Musik elegant auf Schlittschuhen gleitet. [...]

Austra: photo by Michael Ligon Kicking off a busier month of concert-going than usual for me these days was Toronto's Austra at the Phoenix Concert Theatre at the beginning of the month. The bigger ticket that night was Feist at Massey Hall but there seemed to be a full-house (if not a sold out one) for the homecoming show for Austra who'd been making waves and touring all year. Doing double-duty that night were twin sisters Sari and Romy Lightman aka Tasseomancy who to me were better known [...]

VCMG If the stream of new music releases slowed to a trickle last week, then this week it's a drip. Here's what's on tap: Tori Amos Martha Berner VCMG Young Galaxy
by teepoo Rather than post you some stupidly generic list of albums you are supposed to expect, I think my top 10 is going to be based on the fact I actually listened to these releases the most this year. Come on , if an album is good, it must be one of your top plays right? These are based on stats according to iTunes and Last.fm plays as well as the fact I physically own them. I don't believe in people's top lists if they [...]

When Handsome Furs' Dan Boeckner sang "A thousand lonely kids making noise in the basement" on Sound Kapital , he was talking about all the angst-ridden musicians he encountered in his travels from Bucharest to Beijing, but he could just as easily been talking about my email inbox in 2011. Every day brought a new batch of fresh-from-the-studio records, singles and EPs by even fresher musicians looking for their place in the world. It's been a fascinating year for new music, for sure. When it came time to whittle down the list of my favourite discs [...]
![[120 - 106] 150 Tracks de 2011!](http://cdn.elbo.ws/posts/3914241_lg.jpg)
El conteo parece que hasta el momento va bien, digo, parece que aun no hay tantas quejas sobre si me estoy pasando de mamon al incluir algunos y dejar fuera a otros pero claro, tal vez esto se deba a que aun no vamos ni a la mitad y aun esta el sentimiento de 'esperanza' de que alguno de sus favoritos aparesca dentro de este conteo aunque bueno, creo que tampoco es ese conteo por el que se estan comiendo las uñas. En este tercer dia recapitulamos algunos de los lanzamientos que sin duda nos dejaron mucho que desear siendo [...]
![Young Galaxy @ Ritual [December 3, 2011]](http://cdn.elbo.ws/posts/3905803_lg.jpg)
Young Galaxy was the second act to play at Ritual on December 3, 2011. I was very excited to see them play. Last time they were in Ottawa was on March 12, 2011 . All I have to say was Catherine was in fine form considering she had a baby this year. The band has had a great year since the release of Shapeshifting . This time they didn't had the visual lights. Just a straight up [...]

Frank Yang There's many great things about the long-running Toronto institution of Nu Music Nites at the Horseshoe - not least of all the fact that they're free - but the fact that they often feature such random assemblages of acts that each set can feel like its own standalone show and not part of a larger bill is certainly a big part of the fun. Such was the case on Tuesday night when rather than one headline-calibre act, as you'd normally be fortunate to have, they had two - and quite markedly different ones at that. [...]

We had a great opportunity to send a quick email interview with our current obsession of the year(if you couldn't tell) Young Galaxy . They're currently on tour with Austra and are giving away the remixes they've done for bands such as Junior Boys, Austra, The Sounds, , CFCF, and many more for free here . I suggest you download it and listen during the reading, some really great stuff here. They are rereleasing their epic 'Shapeshifting' album on December 13th, go get it if you haven't yet! Hi Guys! Such an [...]

Versus es el nombre del compendio de reversiones. En el disco, Young Galaxy echa manos a las canciones de algunos de los artistas más relevantes de la escena actual, como Grimes , Handsome Furs y [...]

Over the course of this year, I've dedicated five posts Young Galaxy , and peripherally included them in a number of others, making them my second-most blogged about artist for 2011 (just behind Austra). This means two things: One, that I really, really love this band. Two, that they're riding on one hell of a year. Not content to end things with anything less than the bang, the band has collected its many remixes done over the last little while and packaged them up as a digital album. The result is Versus , a collection of [...]

Young Galaxy is back! These folks blew minds in Minneapolis this past September when they stopped through with Junior Boys. Since then they have toured tirelessly, including a string of headlining gigs in Europe. This Saturday YG joins label mates Austra at the Triple Rock Social Club. Tasseomancy is opening the show. Check it out, it's perfect for the holiday weekend. I thought it would be fun to catch up with Stephen Ramsay of Young Galaxy and talk about their recent adventures in [...]
