Well it's time again for the new Kitsune compilation. Those who read tradehooks would know how excited we get for these compilations, and know how disappointed I was when yesterday I saw it in the Jbhifi but made a promise to myself that I would support the local establishment for music, and their one copy was missing and I had to put it on order. So now I am waiting. So so patiently. Waiting by the phone for them to reach out and say, selecta ur kitsune 8 is here. In other kitsune news, our 2nd favourite kitsune [...]

My mate Wes sent this to me a month or two ago, pretty wicked and very polished.. The Tom EQ edit doesnt sound much different to the original apart from the length of the track. I don't think Wes has a facebook or myspace so I cant link you to that.. Any how here it is. Was - Lined Up (Tom EQ Re-Edit) (320kbps)

if you like vampire weekend, you probably know this by now. the polo ralph lauren wearing band had one single show booked at Oxford arts factory on the 21st Nov tickets were to go on sale on the 19th of October 2 days before the show went on sale it was sold out. WTF!?!?!?! what kind of fuckin promoter sells out a show before it even goes on sale? a retard? answer yes apparently, there is some fggty fan club with an access code. i bet [...]
I thought i had Australian Hip Hop figured out. Lay down a beat, sample an old well known pop track and rhyme about your favourite everyday hardships. Polo Club take your previous assumptions about Aussie Hip Hop, light them on fire, and dance around them like wild men. They combine their love of hitting 808's, vocoders and experimental synths to deliver tracks that have the same head turning ability as a sizzling dish at a Chinese Restaurant. You may have caught them at Parklife last year, Good Vibrations this year or as a support act for [...]

Mick sent me this track yesterday and since then I haven't been able to stop listing to this remix. It's a good blend of the original disco sound mixed with a nice wobbly bass feel. The drop at 2:18 sends a nice feeling through my body. Pnau - Embrace (Mick Matias Remix) Facebook Myspace

Jonathon Boulet tradehook's won tickets to go see Tame Impala the other week at Waves in Wollongong. Little did we know that the standout performance of the night would come from Tame Impala's support band Jonathon Boulet . You probably have heard their song " A Community Service Announcement" getting played all over the triple j airwaves recently, so for something different I'm bringing you the song they opened with on the night " Ones Who Fly Two Who Die" . I'm over waiting [...]
Kitsune Maison's are always a tonne of fun. From artists to compilation to clothes, kitsune are always spot on. Maison number eight looks to be another hit. French Horn Rebellion – Up All Night The Drums – Let's Go Surfing Siriusmo – High Together Le Corps Mince de Françoise – Something Golden Midnight Juggernauts – This New Technology Heartsrevolution – Dance Till Dawn Logo – Junocide Two Door Cinema Club – I Can Talk (Moulinex Remix) Slagsmålsklubben – Brutal Weapons Beni - Maximus (Harvard Bass Remix) [...]
The Very Best's debut album Warm Heart of Africa has just been released on Green Owl records. Dynamic production brothers Radioclit and singer Esau Mwamwaya combine to bring you an exhilarating and constantly surprising selection of pop, dance, afro and indie tracks collaborating with artists such as M.I.A. and Ezra Koenig of Vampire Weekend. Album's like this aren't usually on my agenda, and this blended genre isn't something that i normally enjoy as much as others, but the unique and colourful remixes that are produced i can always look forward to. Afro-Indie can be a minority [...]
now thats a big drop. yep, biiiggggggggggg drop (of tracks). And they're all pretty phat tracks too which gets me warm that special area, it should do the same to yours. lets get down to business: Interesting drop at 1min mark, it leaves you wanting more bass, and if it was an afrojack remix you'd get it but not in this. Shark Attack - Ghost Knives (Disco Villains remix) (320 Kbps) Gotta love DSL, bunch [...]
