Amazing dubstep remix showing the genre hasn't gone all "dumb and bass", with a total lack of progress as a genre, and lost the plot... And here's more from the album... Check out Heron's remix album "We're New Here" on 21 Feb 2011. The whole remix album was done by Jaime of The xx which is I think is awesome! For more check out here . Here's one of Heron's throwback jams that everyone has sampled (from Air to Common)... [...]
NOTE: This list will be updated with songs and music and pictures galore until the end of December! Please keep checking back! Sorry I haven't been around. I've been trying to figure out what to do. In my opinion if I can't give you guys my all then... there is no point in even trying... Normally that would lead to me saying I'm packing it in... BUT that's not what I want to do. I want to pull my extraordinarily depressed head out of my arse and [...]
It is no secret that here at Arcadia we are huge fans of Klaxons ... I haven't written a review for their new album yet because I want the review to be a little deeper than " OMFG IT'S SO GOOD " lol... In fact I realize that I don't have a whole lot of objectivity with bands like them and Bloc Party so it takes me longer to review the material. WHILE we are waiting for that... hows about you kids enjoy this live version of "Echoes" in anticipation of [...]
It's hard to draw any parallel here between Acid Washed and uhhhhhh Britain (in order to connect them to this blog lol) buttttttttttt Acid Washed is playing a show for Clash Magazine in London (broad format breaking smile) soooooo that's how I'm working them into the blog! Normally I don't break format but there are just too many good records coming from Record Makers for me to ignore. I want to write more but Blogger is being weird so I think I'm just going to [...]
Simian Mobile Disco are funny guys. I mean they are humble, very amusing, and very dedicated to their work. After their awesome Temporary Pleasure they're working up some new tracks and a new mix... here's what Wikipedia has to say about the former: "During the introduction of their Essential Mix made for Radio 1, broadcasted on the 9 January 2010, they gave hints on what would be a "techno-based album" expected for later in 2010. Since then, the duo has also established what will be a quarterly residency to JDH [...]
This video has tons of things I like that I shouldn't... guns, cigarettes, Zippos... and two thinga I enjoy which is Ray-Bans and Burial ...
I don't even need to tell you how good this is... just look at the track listing. Our man Don Diablo has killed it again... I promise you'll be seeing his name a lot more here again in the future. Now that I'm getting my shit back together! Don Diablo takes you on a trip down memory lane! This thursday, Don did an interview with BBC Radio 1 and dropped a Klassroom mix for Kissy Sell Out's radioshow. Grab the radio broadcast right here, and check out what Don was bobbing [...]
The Charlatans are back and of course this is cause for excitement... it's even more exciting for those of us stuck in the U.S. since they're touring here in September! This song is actually a lot heavier than what I was expecting for their lead single but I really like it. Check out their "beautiful Michael Clarke inspired, Douglas Hart of The Jesus & Mary Chain fame directed video" for their new single below! The Charlatans - LoveIsEnding Horrors Remix by [...]
I just got at Toddla T about an interview we've been waiting on since before his first feature in Dazed and Confused (i.e. a LONG time). I got an early listen of this beast of a song and wanted to try to get his attention before he was doing like 20,000 magazine interviews because of this... and of course I don't think I emailed him lol. Who knows, maybe it'll still happen, but if it doesn't you'll understand why right after you hear this song... it's so Summer perfect that everyone will want a piece [...]
You don't want to hear me talk about how awesome this is... you just need to hear this as fast as possible. One of dubstep's most important names, Caspa , returns with a very sick tune called 'Back For The First Time' and I promise after one listen you'll be fiending for more Caspa... at least a remix lol... check out some press and then the new video below! After a short spell away, Caspa is back with one of the most highly anticipated releases of the year on his own [...]
Of course one of the most talked about things on the blogosphere is the new M.I.A. album "MAYA" . Some reviews are good, others are not so hot, but arguably the most important verdict comes from Diplo (who has been involved in the production of all of her albums thus far)... For those of you who are just arriving to the M.I.A. and Diplo show... they started dating after she walked into our dear fabric's nightclub while he was playing her first single "Galang" . They had [...]
If you're gonna come back from not writing, you better come back with something BIG... So I give you a previously UNRELEASED version of Frankmusik's "When You're Around" . It's sort of dubsteppy in places... and then there are other sections which sound like peak dance floor time music. Ideally it would be awesome for all the DJs out there who want to be able to hop between those two genres without sounding like a git! Frankmusik - "When You're Around (Masterdon Remix)" YouSendIt [...]

I just heard from Frankmusik for the first time in the a while... prompting an "oldie but goodie" post... Frankmusik- "Ice Box (Cover)"
Ellie Goulding - "This Love (Will Be Your Downfall)'
After cellebrated remixes for Dragonette, The Antlers, Little Boots, Dragonette, Cartridge and Patrick Wolf, Barcelona's DJ duo Buffetlibre release an official remix on Plushgun's Mixtapes. A high energy electro remix which, as usual, Buffetlibre offer as free download. Plushgun - Mixtapes (Buffetlibre Remix)
Seemed like a good headline to get you interested... but then again how could you not be interested?!?! Even if I had just said "wicked remixes" in the headline it would have gotten a lot of people interested.. but by saying "remix competition" there is no way that any respecting blogger, dj, or producer can overlook this info. Throwing the word "fame" in is like throwing in the word "free" lol... Even if you win there are no promises of fame (as you can see below that's not [...]
Here is a preview of the upcoming To My Boy album! The Habitable Zone Sampler by To My Boy After taking a brief break the boys are back veering away from the previous new rave tag placed upon them... it's a very new sound full of rich spacey pop perfection that won't leave your head for quite some time... read more in the press below: To My Boy will release their sophomore album, The [...]
Got a new one here from good old Sarah Goldielocks called "3rd Eye Vision" ! The track is available as a free download by tweeting or updating your Facebook status about the track ... sounds like a solid deal, especially given the quality of her recent output! Apparently Chris Ofili has an exhibition on now at the Tate Britain and Goldielocks, Mala, Cooly G, Tinie Tempah etc, and were asked to write songs to correspond to his paintings. In case somehow you forgot (or were too young) Mr [...]
