Whoever went outside, found the first star and wished for Astronomer to remix Glasser - I salute you. Not for the fact you missed the opportunity to wish for a million billion trillion other wishes, that was plain stupid, or even the chance to harbinger the news of world peace, that was also stupid, but more so the consideration to use up your one and only wish so we could all hear this masterpiece of a song. It could be Glasser's ability to haunt us with her mellifluous vocals or the meandering journey set out by a [...]

It nearly feels like spring here in New York, and its ever so much warm in thought with these Portland, Oregon darlings, White Hinterland . Their cover of Arthur Russell's Lucky Cloud is so angelic, it's as if the sky was singing. They are touring worldwide, making stops from Portland to Amsterdam! Hence, I already know where I will be spending my birthday this year! Make sure to listen to my other current addiction Icarus. Which is a single of their coming LP album Kairos (which in Greek means, the opportune moment) debuting March 9. [...]

Hello world- I have a confession to make. Well, despite the hundred and one times I was made to dance to Foals during indie style discos, I was never actually that much of a fan of their first record Antidotes . Okay I liked it that they sang about maths, yes, but it just seemed to lack anything meaningful. However this time around the new Foals single Spanish Sahara has me gripped. It's more panache than trash, and it sounds as if the band has done a hell of a lot more growing up- or [...]

Our wee Pablo is from Lincoln, England. When I visited during the daytime it is filled with old people and ducks. When the sun has set these old people are most likely wrapped in bed and ducks know they need to get out of there with a University in the town you know students are going to be throwing things at them or swimming with them. These students are most likely coming out for a Moda party (run by Andy George and Jaymo ) however, tonight will see everyone in the water as it see's the launch [...]

When the clock hit 12 to signify the start of 2010 I was in high spirits, looking forward to new changes and a bit of luck. So far it's been awful and I seem to be hitting wall after wall. The latest being someone stealing my laptop from my house so I'm pretty behind in the my music not to mention the gossip around Ashley Cole (what a fool). So that's my excuse for not being around sadly. Although 2010 hasn't got me buzzing I'm still walking round with a smile. We have previously talked about both [...]

If we take Claude VonStroke's soundtrack to an arcadia i.e. "Aundy", tie a rope around the song and haul it through the streets of Bristol via Manchester, we get this mercurial remix of Delphic by the constantly impressing Julio Bashmore . It mourns, it harrows and, in a way, it mirrors the suffering of a wounded animal. Ironically to our joy. But it's a mystery as to why the remix has gone down such a dark route, especially since "Halcyon" is a dulcet word that can describe something sweet and care-free, although perhaps Julio Bashmore wants to [...]

This feel blue feel good song is like looking into a kaleidoscope and your emotions twirl in shades of blue, with your heart inside out. The pair up of Primary 1 and Swede singer Nina Persson , take you to a tune of longing for those simpler times, just like Marc Jacob's collection resonated in last week's New York Fashion show. Yet, at the same time its upbeat personality makes you feel it's okay, it's just the blues. DL: Primary 1 feat. Nina Persson-The Blues [...]

I know you rain a lot, I know your grasses are greener, I know you like fish and chips, a cup of tea with biscuits and I know you must be lovely because Crystal Fighters loves you. So, I begin to long going to London, and this hyperactive makes-me-want-to-dance remix by Highbloo for Crystal Fighters "I love London" is not making it any easier to ease it. Oh, London, I might just visit you this summer. In case you haven't [...]

" You have to have your heart broken. That's the reality of life and if you are protected from this sadness, then how can you grow? How can you recognize real happiness when you see it? "- Marion Cotillard . But, Marion, you broke our hearts when you accepted the role in 'Public Enemies'. And we were left kind of disappointed with 'Nine'. Although, after what you say, can we smile even more when we see you for the first time in 'Un long dimanche de fiançailles'? Yes, yes, I 'd like to think so. [...]

This month we've got a very special guest doing our charts, not just for February, but also as a recommendation of acts to keep an eye on throughout the rest of the year. Alex Egan , one half of Skulljuice , one whole of Astronomer , and possibly a few other aliases that will soon come to light, shows us a selection of five records that highlight some of the current genre-blurring taking place within electronic music. It could be argued that this also reflects in his own sound with diverse mixes for Late of the Pier, [...]
What isn't going on at the city that never sleeps? Fashion week, parties, and after parties. As you all know Ed Banger Records just turned 7, here is some of the fun that happened at the after party in New York. The whole crew did not disappoint with the likes of SoMe , SebastiAn [...]

Close your eyes. It's no longer February, nor are we wanting to stop for the promise of Spring, but rather we're choosing to share an ice cream on a sunny July afternoon. It's too hot so the scoops begin to run down your fingers and it attracts the wasps who come as an army of gatecrashers- therefore you run. And run and run and run and run. Till you come to the beach where the sea breeze flings your hair across your eyes that it's nearly impossible to see. You compose yourself by sitting down on a step, watching the [...]

Everybody having a good 2010? Breaking bad habits, challenging yourself, forgiving the past and conquering this decade? Hope so! Here is a fresh off the bakery worthy track remix of M.A.N.D.Y vs Booka Shade 's "Donut" song, glazed to cheeky perfection by Boy 8-Bit . Yum! Keep your eyes open, as he might be visiting a city near you. DL : M.A.N.D.Y Vs. Booka Shade - Donut (Boy 8-Bit Remix) [M] M.A.N.D.Y Vs. Booka Shade - Donut (Boy 8-Bit Remix) [Y] Preview [...]

Contrary to popular belief, Aidy's girlfriend is NOT a computer but in fact a slutty toaster from Eastgate. She warms his bagels in the morning, he leaves her standby on at night- it makes total sense. Though it has to be pointed out that the computer was just a rumour and in no way connected to the recent Vanessa Perroncel saga that's currently littering all the headlines. And, at this moment in time, I can confirm that Aidy is due to become a father of a baby toastette. Okay some of these facts may have been exaggerated for blogging effect [...]

"I must learn to love the fool in me. The one who feels too much, talks too much, takes too many chances, wins sometimes and loses often, lacks self-control, loves and hates, hurts and gets hurt, promises and breaks promises, laughs and cries" - Theodore Isaac Rubin. DL : Glasser - Learn (John Talabot Remix) [M] Glasser - Learn (John Talabot Remix) [Y] A remix from last year, now given away for free by the on form Barcelona-based producer John Talabot . Big ups True Panther for [...]

Most of times I wonder to myself, what love is. I like to think that love being both a verb and noun is that of a recurring state of mind, that inspires your cyclical emotions to a positive state. Which makes your cold days warmer, and your gloomy days, sunnier. Fyfe Dangerfield' s song She Needs Me, goes to show that no matter what goes in his life, his life is always [...]

The Boogaloo Crew comes from London, where they produce good tracks and remixes. Very young and talented, they played at Plan B on saturday right after Solo and came to Paris for Brodinski Residency #2 in November where they rocked it out.
