In lieu of his upcoming sophomore album, Return to Paradise , Australian pop artist Sam Sparro decided to unleash a new and free EP for all ears to hear. And whilst this all happened prior to the turn into the new year, we're slightly behind on the good stuff here in Beastonia, but that makes it no less rad. No, in fact, we're appreciating it even more now that the initial "zomg wow and how" factors have worn off on everyone else, and we can reveal how [...]

What was one of our most oft repeated tracks of the past year? Well, that honor goes to Discodeine 's Synchronize , although the other work, Singular , from the French production partners, Pentile and Pilooski , sat hgh atop those rankings as well. But it's the former we're spinning yarn about today, because the brand new video for the debut single has just been unleashed and the d-i-r-t-y labelmates put together quite the h-o-t clip. [...]

Ok, I can get down to this. And I will. The Golden Filter tossed us an early New Years' gifty... in the form of a new mix of an old favorite. They say: "somewhere in mid 2010 we did this oddly techno version of Hide Me . Expunging our inventory of anything 2010 so go have a listen." [...]

Oh hi! Remember me? I barely do... considering the whirlwind'rishing sort of week we've had since right before Christmastime factivities and still continuing on through this moment. Seriously, this very minute right now. Neither here nor there, though, cause I was simply going to leave this space untouched til the new set of calendrical offerings, but that's not really fair to you or me. I need a hot few seconds to breathe and release and let my weird words fly, so herein, a brief catchup. And hopefully 'tis not the last til [...]

ZOOOOHHHHH MAN! Once again, Baron Von Luxxury encapsulates the year that was and tosses a ton of my favorite tracks into one seamless mixtape. Last year , he did it with 2009 Was an OK Year , and this time, it's Baron Von Luxxury Loved Me for an Hour and a Minute in 2010 . Consider my ears BANGED! "When I'm With You (excerpt)" - Best Coast [...]

Massive Attack - Heliogoland (Virgin) released: February 8, 2010 Seemingly oft-forgot as a release of this year, being that a super early leak in late late '09 caused the Bristol duo to push up the official outing of Heligoland , Massive Attack's fifth [...]

Sure it wasn't the summertime soiree we'd grown accustomed to over the past two years, but the 3rd Annual Brooklyn Electronic Music Festival (BEMF) , with its new December date and stages split between neighboring venues Public Assembly and Music Hall of Williamsburg, still managed to usher in local 'lectro-heads, lovers and artists alike for one night. And hey, the new wintertime placement? We dig and dug it, considering 3 changes of tank tops were not needed and left in the drawers of Beastonia. But hey, let's talk about the music we saw! [...]

OH MY GOD WE ARE REALLY WRITING ABOUT USHER RIGHT NOW. It's like Katt Williams says, "this shit right here n*gg*? This shit RIGHT HERE?!" Forgive my inanities; I am a full bottle of head cold medicine deep and something about Ursh's new single is making me tingle. So his new single is called More . And it's a filthy dance banger [...]

I hate Christmas music. In fact, I've been lamenting it outright for the past few weeks. Don't believe a beast? Case in point right here . I will however... ...get the hell down to this mix from my buddy IAMXL . DON HO MELE KALIKIMAKA HAWAII TINY BUBBLES FOR XMAS LOL LEI BMORE. Juke-le Bells, y'all. [...]

Check it. I'm beyond exhausted, but feeling revitalized by this new Jamie Woon track. Yet my weariness bodes for noncreative words, so I'm ctrl-C'ing and ctrl-V'ing straight from a press release. Oh the horror! The reception to [Jamie Woon's] Night Air track and the remixes from Ramadanman, Deadboy and Becoming Real as well as the video directed by Lorenzo Fonda has been amazing. Just before we see out the year Jamie has posted a [...]

You heard the exclusive world premiere of the Dreamtrak Diamond Sound Remix of CockNBullKid 's next single, Hold On to Your Misery , on East Village Radio 's Belly of the Beast earlier tonight, and now you can download the track for free. We're all winners! [...]

How's that for a damn post title? It's like, "hey ILU IRL LOL WTF NBD" . And if you can't understand anything I'm spitting at you right now, then let me make it a little bit easier. I have a radio show . You already knew that. What you didn't know is that I have a HUGE night planned, with MNDR [...]

Well now, this is a rather beautiful way to start your day. Check out the Marcus Soderlund directed clip for ceo 's current single, illuminata , which is out now. mp3: ceo - illuminata

You have nothing better to do on Thursday night. I'm making that a firm full-on fact right now, because you will instead, be present at the Free Williamsburg holiday party. It's got some backing love from SPIN Magazine as well as Newcastle Brown Ale . Our buddies The Hundred in the Hands are performing, and my grrrrll Whitney Fierce and I will be tag teaming on the 1's. And the 2's. Or on my laptop. So, you know... it's free, and rad, and you should probably go. [...]

Let's not beat around the proverbial bush here. I have two slices of awesome to toss your way: one which could culminate in a tangibly titillating item, and the other, well, it's just another silly cochlear pleasure from yours truly. Monetary markdowns and mixtapes... it's a rad thing! Dudes, giving someone a laptop for Christmas (only 10 shopping days left!) is a pretty sweet way to say ILU IRL, so if you're gonna do so, why not make it one in the [...]

So what's that Duck Sauce remix of Chromeo and Elly 's Hot Mess sound like then? Funky. Chromeo (ft Elly Jackson) - Hot Mess (Duck Sauce Remix) by sheenabeaston [...]
