![[It's So Hard to Say Goodbye]](http://cdn.elbo.ws/posts/3073355_lg.jpg)
I just wanted to give a quick final update for the DISCOHANDS faithful. I will not be running DH anymore, but I am taking my talents to South Beach.. I mean to TILTMAG.com where I will be joining their team. Thanks for the support while it lasted, and I promise you that you will not be let down if you follow me over to TILTMAG , the talent over there is great, and I think you'll agree that their taste in music is superb. Sing us out BIIM! Boyz [...]
![[Goldfrapp + Grum]](http://cdn.elbo.ws/posts/2341235_lg.jpg)
GAH! The Holy Duo of Electro is back for another round this Spring with an album titled "Head First". I'm going to have to take a moment and put this on my list of things to purchase and geek out to when released. Obviously, if you have been awake and reading blogs, Grum is "all-the-rage". Yes, I am a grown man. And yes, I sound like a 15 yr. old school girl. Do I care...what do you think? Maybe I expected too much from Goldfrapp's comeback single. Just maybe...However, this one is a grower. Grum helps that growth spread all [...]
![[Lady Gaga + Grum + Hercules & The Love Affair]](http://cdn.elbo.ws/posts/2341193_lg.jpg)
Wow, Gaga has had a big year. Who knew things would blow up to the point of already needing a break from her image, in just a matter of a year? Too bad I can't get enough and I had to go to iTunes and buy these diamonds in the major-corporate rough. On top of that, little did we know she could be remixed so well? Here we have two fantastic remixes of an over-played Top 40 hit that will actually have you not reaching for the "skip" button. Hercules & The Love Affair can do no wrong. Even though [...]
![[Caribou]](http://cdn.elbo.ws/posts/2337699_lg.jpg)
So, I am on my way out into the real world. However, I just wanted to drop this day-brightener on you. Caribou is coming back in April with a new album and this mp3 is "freegal" (ill-freegal being the opposite) courteous of Mr. Daniel Victor Snaith himself. The new grip will be titled "Swim" and from the sounds of it, it will be just as playful as previous albums. I can't hate on the lack of a game-change, because honestly, he could sing about genocide and his melodies still make me think of fuzzy puppies. Caribou [...]
![[Breakbot + Pacific!]](http://cdn.elbo.ws/posts/2337215_lg.jpg)
I've been procrastinating on blogging about Breakbot for some time now, and there is just too many great remixes out there to postpone any longer. Breakbot has made a habit of remixing Pacific! which I LOVE. Recently he's remixed AIR and many others as well. But imo the remixes of Pacific! is where he shines. The remix of "Runaway to Elsewhere" is what got me hooked, and then I came across the remix of "Hold Me", which is total class. His presence hasn't been a secret, as he was quickly gobbled up by [...]
![[Anoraak + Mika]](http://cdn.elbo.ws/posts/2337115_lg.jpg)
Wowee Zowee, I've been jonzin' for some new Anoraak for a while now. As great as Anoraak's music is, I think he might be one of those rare specialists that excel at remixing, think Sally Shapiro and his "Anoraak's Anorak Christmas Remix", now instead of Winter, think Spring. That's what I'm hearin' when I listen to this boss ass remix of Mika 's "Blame It On The Girls". This track is HOT, it's one of those rare ones that have no flaws you'd swear Mika created this track for the sole purpose of [...]
The once great Salt-N-Pepa once said, "Opinions are like assholes and everybody's got one." So here's mine. When the Gorillaz's demo'ed 3 trax from their upcoming album last year, I was buzzing so hard, I swear my iPod hated me. The songs sounded so raw and fitting after a great, yet very polished second album, "Demon Days". Now that I've heard the final mix of the new track, "Stylo", with Mos Def and Bobby Womack - I'm not-so-much impressed. However, I'm still looking forward to the final project. Frankly, I think this simple and repetitive remix, by Tenkah upgrades the [...]
Granted, this is nothing special. However, after hearing all the buzz about the major-label swagger-jack of Uffie by this new artist "Ke$ha", I had to laugh when I saw this online. I hope you do too. P.S. I'm not the hugest Uffie fan, but if I had to pick - I'm Team Uff - all the way. Just listen to her glide through, like a Puma, on Mr.Oizo's Remix of his own already-bossass track - "Steroids". Mr. Oizo - Steroids - feat. Uffie (Mr.Oizo Remix) Mr. Oizo's [...]
![[MSTRKRFT + Laidback Luke]](http://cdn.elbo.ws/posts/2334516_lg.jpg)
I am all about simple, short thoughts. Aaaand, I'm slightly less than motivated on this breezy Northern California afternoon. So, since it's St. Valentine's Weekend and a lot of you will be bombarded with senseless acts of love, I decided to post this Laidback Luke remixed gem from 2009 by MSTRKRFT. It's all about heartbreak, but the charging beat is enough to get you out of a funk for at least 5 minutes and 31 seconds. Hit the bottle and repeat... MSTRKRFT - Heartbreaker - featuring John Legend (Laidback Luke Remix) [...]
![[PARALLEL DANCE ENSEMBLE (...makes you "say ahh"...) ]](http://cdn.elbo.ws/posts/2334517_lg.jpg)
So, if you couldn't guess by the album art alone; There is a new blogger in Disco Hands-ville and he goes by the name Pretty/Ugly. However, all that is irrelevant due to that fact that he makes nothing in comparison to this slammin' track. It's a shame we haven't posted this sooner. If you don't own a pair of rollerskates, get some NOW! This jammy ham jam will have you all up in a 1982 daydream. Coco Solid lends some nonsense rap-style vocals to this thumping bassline, but honestly, she could be talking about last night's liquid taco bubbleguts (and [...]
![[Barretso]](http://cdn.elbo.ws/posts/2334518_lg.jpg)
Like Brett Favre, I'm coming out of retirement. The reason might very well be Chilean up and comer Barretso . This guys is consistently releasing dope tracks and only gets better. There is a reason he was signed so quickly, and if you haven't heard what he's offering, you better get to it. A few of his tracks have caught on like wildfire in the blogosphere, but I feel like it is only necessary that I lend a hand to spread the word. It's been a while since I've blogged last, but I'm back for good. [...]
![[Death to the Throne]](http://cdn.elbo.ws/posts/2161462_lg.jpg)
Although he is not yet considered to be of the top 100 dj acts according to the status quo, aka DJ MAG.. Disco Hands begs to differ. In fact, we declare the list to be totally bogus. I've yet to read the entire list, but I'm sure Diplo, Tiesto, and other completely ridiculous acts are up there. Death the Throne must love that old adage "if you can't beat them, join them" because he's sent us his own Tiesto inspired track, a remix of the XX's "Shelter". The track is actually enjoyable, which leads me to believe that [...]
![[Classixx + Drop The Lime]](http://cdn.elbo.ws/posts/2078090_lg.jpg)
We've got a new remix from the always great Classixx for Drop The Lime's hot track "Devil's Eyes". The remix is a nice change of pace as it slows it down and draws out the drama. I'm not going to go into it too much, just grab it for yourself and enjoy. Drop The Lime - Devil's Eyes (Classixx's B-Live Mix) Myspace >>> Drop The Lime Classixx
![[Relation + Lifelike]](http://cdn.elbo.ws/posts/2075613_lg.jpg)
80's sounds have been nothing new as of late, the usual cast from Valerie Collective, On The Fruit Records, and other inspired artists have continually put out the tracks that we know and love. I sometimes think of them as quasi-80's songs, resembling that era, but still derivative, still new, still exciting.. but selective of a nitch 80's music scene. Lately though, I've been noticing some artist putting out tracks not so synth based, not so electronic, not so upbeat.. maybe even a bit more 80's? Let's remember that the 80's tracks were not always futuristic synth crazy [...]
Valerie Collective shining synth-star, Stephen Falken, in conjunction with Flexx Records presents to us his newest masterpiece "Vision". This 4-track journey is classic Falken, dominated by mysterious pitch black synths. It is self proclaimed "The Mid 80's Movie Score You Never Heard." That is.. until now. And if you love the album like I know you will, visit Flexx Records and grab the real deal . The artwork itself is worth the price of admission. Stephen Falken - Visions 1. Stephen Falken - The Deal 2. Stephen [...]

![[Drop The Lime]](http://cdn.elbo.ws/posts/2052418_lg.jpg)
What goes good with Bacardi? Lime? Yes, but even better, Drop The Lime! Let me explain.. Bacardi has been picking up lately on what the cool kids (you and me) have been listening to these days, so they've worked with some of our favorite musicians to put out some really great new tracks, Drop The Lime being one of them. Don't let Michael Moore convince you Capitalism is a monster, here is proof that great things can come from the belly of the beast! We love Bacardi (can I have a free t-shirt?) and we love Drop The Lime! [...]
![[Reni Lane + Acid Girls + Frankmusik + Chromeo]](http://cdn.elbo.ws/posts/2049720_lg.jpg)
I've been obsessively enjoying a few tracks recently, to get my mind off the increasingly monotonous aspects of life lately, first up is a really great remix from RAC of Reni Lane's track 'Place For Us'. This track reminds me of the awesome Aeroplane remix of the track 'Paris' by Skeleton Boy featuring Au Revoir Simone... and I don't care if they're similar or not, just sayin. Reni Lane - Place For Us Another track I've been going insane over is the Acid Girls track 'Wake Up' featuring Frankmusik. What a pleasant [...]
![[Washed Out]](http://cdn.elbo.ws/posts/2045738_lg.jpg)
I was introduced to this music by a friend, and figured I'd pass it on. Washed Out is an unsigned talent coming way out of Georgia US of A. His music is ultra chill, but in that lo-fi beautiful flavor much akin to Ariel Pink. These tracks are off his Life of Leisure EP, so check it out, and appreciate. Washed Out - Get Up Washed Out - Hold Out Washed Out - New Theory And when you're done, please pay some respect by [...]

Wow.. what a hiatus. I completely walked out on this whole blogging thing, but for good reasons. I'm bizack, but I'm going to keep it simple from here on. I'm really busy lately doing some shit for educational purposes, but I can't give up on this blog. If I have the time to do some features I'll do them, but I'm going to plan on throwing music up more often, but with less writing. So if you're here for the music, great! That's what I'm here for as well. So if you've stuck around, thanks for checkin' back and keepin' [...]
