Download: The Rejection (Blazing Lazer Reject Disco Mix) - Dangerous Muse (2006) (Alt Link) * This song has to be one of the defining tracks of my adulthood. Fresh out of high school, this track became the anthem to Sydney's exploding dance scene. Next to this, the original is balls . [...]

Sweden / Germany / England / U.S.A. Experimental / Electronic / Opera I pressed play on a 4 and half minute Intro track with no prior knowledge of what I was about to hear. As the brooding atmospheric wails and electric bleeps swelled across my brain I knew what it was for. Track 1: "Intro", gives you 4 and half minutes to erase everything you think you might know about The Knife , Mt. Sims , and PlanningToRock . [...]

Cassette Kids are back! With a brand new single 'Lying Around' to share with the blogosphere, the guys and girl are preparing to launch their next album 'Nothing On TV' (produced by none other than Michael DiFrancesco of Van She ), bringing along a whole array of synths, drum machines and other toys. "The reason why we're in a band and we're being creative is because we want to be proactive, do what we want, to be part of and to create pop culture rather than [...]

U.S.A Experimental / Rock N Roll / Pop Spoon are not what you'de expect from 4 white Texans. In fact, Spoon are not what you'de expect from anyone around the age of 40, but there is something irresistibly charming about them. Transference is youthful, vibrant, dynamic, engaging, and at times, just plain old fun. Unlike hype bands that explode onto the music scene only to disappear and never follow up with any new music (Hello? [...]

Middle Eastern-psych-snap-gospel turned happy, catchy, poppy fun Alan Wilkis style. Great to have this land in my inbox, have been listening to this on repeat since I got it. A perfect addition to any iPod. Check out more of Alan's remixes. They're gold. Download: Ambling Alp (Alan Wilkis Remix) - Yeasayer (Alt Link) ENJOY!!!

Two Door Cinema Club . I am yet to be disappointed with a single thing the Irish band have released. When their album drops I'll be one of the first in line, money in hand, bouncing up and down in excitement like a little kid after hearing an ice cream truck. Just got my hands on their next single 'Undercover Martyn', out on Kitsuné , which comes with four remixes and a 're-rub' from the extremely talented French producer Philippe Zdar . [...]

Hot off supporting Depeche Mode 's Europe tour, French / New York duo Motor (Bryan Black and Mr. No), are soon to release their 3rd album 'Hyper Machine'. Due out in February on Dim Mak Records the record features their signature mix of metal, tight guitar riffs and funky techno beats that defined their previous releases. "We wanted it to carry on the spirit of those first two records, but at the same time we had to break new ground. We knew after [...]

Relative newcomer Felix Cartal is about to unleash his debut LP on Dim Mak Records and we've been sent the title track and first single 'Popular Music' to give you an idea what to expect from the album. The release is everything you'd expect from Felix; heavy beats, distorted melodies, and epic buildups and breakdowns rein supreme throughout the album. Warning: Keep a look out for his very large tracks "Berlin," "Drone," and "Boy and His Computer", as they may very well blow your head clean off. [...]

Scion A/V and Fluokids recently showcased a five track release on Fluokids very own blog. Featuring tracks from Don Rimini , Renaissance Man , Mondkopf , The Teenagers and more the release is a sick dance fest that'll get you shakin' your tail feather like you just don't care. If you like the words 'large' and 'epic' used as adjectives to describe the music you listen to, then your sure to like these. I can't [...]

Ever since I heard ' Drop The Phone ', I've had a soft spot for New York band Shy Child . Their music always made me dance and although I've never seen them live, I've heard great things about the show they put on. They are no strangers to fame, having played O2 Wireless, Big Day Out and having supported the likes of Klaxons and Björk . So the reason I'm posting about them (because I haven't really heard anything new about them for ages), is that on [...]

Hailing from the very efficient land of blond hair, beer drinking, Sauerkraut and techno music comes a man who defies all stereotypes (maybe not beer drinking). Tensnake 's seductively smooth music has been gracing my ears periodically for the last two months. Always meant to blog him, but never got around to it. That was until I got my hands on his upcoming EP 'Coma Cat', when I felt an obligation to spread his glamorous, epic disco funk to the world. It's chilled [...]

United Kingdom Vocal / Pop Rock / Soul "Dark times ahead" - The opening line to Lucky Soul 's sophomore album A Coming Of Age. Believe me, there is nothing dark about this band at all; they are all about sunshine, rainbows, puppies, and wholesome teenage road trips along the Californian coast. Their lead single " White Russian Doll " sounds like the latest Holland-Dozier-Holland brainchild, but with enough 2010 spunk to keep it sounding fresh. It's [...]

So another Daft Punk 'leak'. Real or not? This track however, actually sounds like them. The track has elements of Thomas Bangalter 's score for Irreversible and the drum sample used sounds exactly like the drum sample used in their track ' Face to Face ', but slowed down which would indicate that Daft Punk are reusing their own sample library like they have done in the past. French media however have proposed that a copy cat [...]

After some collaboration effort by electronic music god Fatboy Slim & indie hero David Byrne in The BPA , they once again are teaming up for a strange concept album about the widow of the Philippines' former dictator, Imelda Marcos .
