This week's Monday Mix-Up is coming to you in a bit of a different format - Soundcloud Set. Why, you might ask. Well, because I don't currently have my wonderful hard drive with me to pull my usual collage of old and new, hip to square tracks. This week's set includes a few tracks from well-established artists like The National and Breakbot , while others come from lesser-known artists like Small Houses . Enjoy and have a splendid Monday.
The nightclub scene can be a tricky beast. Clubs open and close, what's trendy now won't be in a year and the turn over rate is pretty high for a "sustainable business". However, Lure (where The Cabana Club once stood) in Hollywood seems to have a something good brewing. Being opened in May 2012, Lure is not only one of the hottest nightclubs in LA right now, but seem to be on a consistent track with booking the best of new and old talents of EDM. This was ever so apparent, with the bottle service crowd in full swing, [...]
Fresh off releasing his debut album, By Your Side , Breakbot is finally retreating from Justice's shadow that hangs over Ed Banger Records. Sprinkled with glitzy synths, gold- glistening basslines, and enough French house funk, Breakbot is channeling a lot of artists. Everything from Michael Jackson, Chic, and a la Discovery era Daft Punk can be heard in the Breakbot’s debut effort. And ofcourse with every debut album- there involves the long nights of inebriated partying, sleepless touring schedules, and ceaseless press interviews. Probably with a bad case of jetlag and [...]
Sonar Festival has always boasted one of the most unique line-up around. Never claiming to be a strictly dance music festival, it is packed with all kind of artists, from DJs to those with really weird music and quirky live performances. I always find Sonar quite refreshing especially if you're sick of the samey-samey line-ups typical of most EDM festivals these days. While the usual suspect in the name of Skrillex, Major Lazer and Diplo will be there, the other artists are really worth checking out. As with last year, the event is divided into day and [...]
Taking cue from the irrefutable king of ripping and running, we bring you the sweetest, the most bomb dot com deals in digital music this week. And, we answer the three Ws for you too. We've tried to bring you some records/EPs all priced under a hundred bucks (except for that one double-record), so you can save some of that hard-earned bread for the next great gig. What: Sky Rabbit - Sky Rabbit Where: Flipkart - Rs 54 [...]
Una nueva entrega de los 10 recomendados favoritos del mes en NNM.cl y una nueva ocasión en que el lugar número uno es para el noruego favorito Todd Terje . No sabemos cómo lo hace pero cada lanzamiento de Terje es un nuevo hit asegurado. El turno esta vez fue de la canción "How Do You Do?" de los ingleses Hot Chip , la cual forma parte de su último disco In Our Heads y que, mediante la remezcla del escandinavo, ha sido convertida en una bomba space disco. Más adelante, y cambiando un [...]
Breakbot is a beyond busy man with touring, remixing and having just released his first album, By Your Side. The humble and softly spoken Frenchman was able to take out some time from his mad busy schedule to have a (very giggly) chat with me about the album, hair maintenance tips AND you're hearing it here first, the possibility of Breakbot on Broadway. Congratulations on your first album! The artwork is amazing. I’ve read that you used to be an animator. Did you do the art yourself? Thank you! Well I [...]
Gosh dammit, what a week for music videos as Breakbot rounds things out with "One Out Of Two" feat Irfane! Typical lush-ness from the Frenchman although set on a somewhat sunny American coast. There are a few soothsayers in the comments on Youtube drilling this down the essentials. So... Breakbot broke up with some crazy ass girl... who, for vengeance... tracked him down and turned him into a watermelon... with a magic gun... and then... she ate him... so he would always be a part of her? [...]
Quedan sólo cinco días para el lanzamiento del esperadísimo álbum debut del francés Breakbot y con cada adelanto que escuchamos las ansias son mayores. Hoy es el turno de una nueva canción titulada "Another Dawn", la cual pueden descargar de forma gratuita gracias a la revista Mixmag . El tema cuenta, nuevamente, con la colaboración de Irfane en la voz y formará parte de By Your Side, el cual saldrá a la venta a partir del próximo 17 de septiembre bajo el sello Ed Banger Records .

Tinie Tempah" MP3 | Tame Impala - "Apocalypse Dreams" MP3 | Diddy, Mase & Biggie - "Mo Cities Mo Problems (Carlos Serrano Mix)"
Fue una tarea difícil el elegir las 10 mejores canciones recomendadas por NNM.cl durante el pasado mes de junio. Junto con la tremenda calidad de las publicaciones, también nos encontramos con muchos lanzamientos que ya se encuentran, por qué no, dentro de nuestros favoritos a lo mejor del año (incluso aquellos que ni siquiera han sido publicados todavía). Es por eso, que partimos nuestro conteo mensual con el espectacular remix de Erol Alkan a Gee Up del inglés Kindness , canción cuya versión original forma parte de su disco debut el que nos [...]
Still Going - Work That Shit Party By Stef Siepel The Weekly Froth! A weekly take on six tracks, most of which have recently popped up somewhere in the blogosphere. Bit of a mixed bag with a slight leaning towards house, disco, and remixes, but generally just anything that for some reason tickled the writer’s fancy. ‘Work That Shit Party’ by Still Going Here we go, here we go. Still Going gets it going (...) with this one, a release [...]
Breakbot nos trae un nuevo trabajo de la mano de Ed Banger, como adelanto de By Your Side , el próximo disco del francés que verá la luz en septiembre. El EP One Out Of Two fue lanzado esta semana e incluye la nueva canción del mismo nombre, que incluye vocales de Irfane, además "Programme" (de la cuál te contamos hace unas semanas), y remixes de la canción que da nombre al EP. Uno de los remixes a destacar es el de los productores norteamericanos Oliver .
Cuando llega la hora de hacer una recopilación de lo mejor que les recomendamos este mes en NNM, nos damos cuenta que abril fue un mes lleno de novedades, sorpresas y regresos. Nuestro conteo mensual comienza con un nuevo remix del gran sabio noruego Todd Terje y su infalible capacidad para crear joyas. Seguido muy de cerca, está el lanzamiento que tanto esperamos, aproximadamente un año: Mr. Overtime de los suecos Punks Jump Up acompañados de alguien que nos visitará pronto, Dave 1 de Chromeo . Más adelante, tenemos un nuevo lanzamiento del [...]
[Joakim] "Caramellas" appeared on Aeroplane 's debut EP released in 2007. Despite Stephen Fasano's departure from the duo a couple years back, Vito De Luca has managed to maintain the characteristic cosmic disco-electroncia sound that the dyad originally visioned. In recent days De Luca has announced a remix package (out today), featuring refixes from the likes of Cassius , Breakbot , and veteran producer, Joakim . Joakim 's dub is one of the three hand-picked tunes present on the 123 track list. With a beat-heavy breeze, Joakim Bouazziz has [...]

Last Friday, Fool's Gold Records descended upon Paris for a night of epic proportions. The night featured a live performance by Chromeo and DJ sets by A-Trak, Nick Catchdubs, DJ Craze, Breakbot, Kavinsky, and Rogerseventytwo. CLICK HERE FOR THE FULL PHOTO GALLERY Thus far, my experience in Paris nightlife has been limited to shi-shi nightclubs and lounges, where the music is generally commercial and the people are generally too cool to dance. It turns out the music scene is a whole other animal [...]
