flyer design by Shawn Lee It's Friday the 13th, and the amazingly on-point monthly Little Rock party Cool Shoes has come to Fayetteville ! I've been pumping Cool Shoes here on AiMT for years now, so I'm very happy to help bring it to my home town. Tonight we've got Cool Shoes residents Wolf-E-Wolf and Cam Holifield along with myself and local DJ/promoter extraordinaire Beat Bachs . The Cool Shoes crew will be bringing down tons of extra sound, lights, and [...]

V-Nasty | via @THArealVNASTY Haven't made a BOOTYHOLES post since '09. White Girl Mob might just keep this series sustained throughout 2012. We'll see.

Julianna Barwick | photo by David Blake Hutchinson To kick off AiMT 2011 , here's what is by far the most Flash-overload feature to ever grace the site. Hopefully it won't make your browser tweak out. Inevitably these SoundCloud streams will start to vanish, which will make this post a lot less fun. Enjoy them while they're here! Also check out last year's ambient list . #20 [...]

I've been organizing things for the annual AiMT year-end lists, and I noticed that Rush Hour just posted this mix featuring their catalog highlights from the past year. All the tracks come from the Best of Rush Hour 2011 comp . Rush Hour has been around since '99 but became very active last year and killed it with quality house reissues peppered with some intriguingly nostalgic new material. They've followed suit in 2011: Tracklist: [...]
Oh the bliss of monolingualism. My own lack of understanding for Yelle 's lyrics permits my imagination to run wild, much wilder than her lyrics could ever be. And this bizzaro-chic video directed by Jérémie Saindon doesn't hurt in that department. "Comme un Enfant is my favorite track off Yelle's Safari Disco Club , and I'm tickled to see it finally get the single/video treatment. Here are some choice remixes off the EP: "Comme un Enfant ( Second Date Remix)": [...]

photo by Amandine Paulandré | Vice Style I'm hoping my girl Azealia will get a mixtape out by the end of the year, but if not, I'm more than happy to continue bumping the handful of recent goodies she's graced us with. "Grand Scam" is more of where that came from, and it's produced by Machinedrum , whom I appeared with on the Dosage compilation years back when I still produced. [...]

Around that same time of the album's release, earFear member and AiMT regular 607 sent me his marvelous flip of Diplo and Douster 's "On!," which you can peep below. Upon receiving it, I tucked the MP3 away in some obscure folder and pitifully forgot about it. [...]

Montrealer beat weirdo Lunice has turned out this dark-yet-lively collab with my current favorite up-and-coming MC, NYC's Azealia Banks . I can't wait to hear what else Azealia cooks up this year. ♥ THIS SONG ON THE HYPE MACHINE ! BONUS: If you haven't caught Ms. Banks' video for "212," her tremendous flip of Lazy Jay's " Float My Boat ," please do so now and do yourself a favor:

This CREEP mix for the Field Day London festival has been floating around for nearly two months, but it's just now landing on my radar. They threw one of my blends on the playlist, which is a big honor considering I'm a fan of both CREEP and Lauren Flax 's various solo and group projects. Hopefully these two will drop an album soon.
