Joe Goddard , of Hot Chip and The 2 Bears  fame, has crafted an absolutely brilliant remix of the wonderful YADi , and we can't get it off repeat. This track has been around for a couple months now, but we figured we'd do the courtesy of sharing it in case you were unfortunate enough to miss it like we did. It starts off on a mellow vibe as minimalistic bass, drum rolls, and what sounds like the clip of a gun fill your ears, then YADi's bright voice fades in with the first verse and [...]

Vindos da França, o duo de musica eletrônica Juveniles já aparece em nossas páginas desde 2011, quando divulgou seu primeiro single, "We Are Young" , lançado pela Kitsuné . Em 2012 o single "Through The Night" ainda deu título ao primeiro EP, também lançado pelo selo, e agora, prestes a dar início à divulgação do seu disco de estreia, os rapazes acabam de lançar “Fantasy”, uma produção electro-pop que destoa das anteriores por deixar a vibe depressiva de lado a favor de um número alto-astral e ligeiramente funky, que nos remete aos grandes hits da [...]

Another off-shot from Hot Chip which includes Felix Martin, Al Doyle and non-chip dude Tom Hopkins.   New build  teams up with Joy Joseph (vocals) and Sarah Jones (drums) on this electronic infused punk track.  Think Talk Heads punk but with more synths. False Thing by newbuild

Phages é um projeto musical vindo de São Francisco, Califórnia. Mesmo com a vasta quantidade de informações que a internet nos dá, isso é tudo que ainda se sabe sobre essa banda (ou seria projeto de um homem só?), que combina elementos eletrônicos e batidas leves lembrando muito duos como AlunaGeorge e Bondax . Com o lançamento do EP Take Me With You , o Phages apresenta seu primeiro material que, apesar de curto, é muito bem produzido. Apesar de americanos, seja lá quem estiver por trás do projeto, se mostram ligado aos sons eletrônicos [...]

Originalmente formado em Ontario, o Born Ruffians vem ganhando cada vez mais destaque na cena alternativa do Canadá desde a sua formação em 2004, ano em que também lançaram o primeiro registro, de forma independente. Com o vocal poderoso de Luke Lalonde, o quarteto fez barulho com algumas performances locais em Toronto, ganhou popularidade online e finalmente, debutou em turnês junto a nomes como Franz Ferdinand, Hot Chip e os conterrâneos canadenses do Tokyo Police Club . O primeiro disco numa gravadora grande, Red, Yellow & Blue (2008), tem o viciante hit "Hummingbird" e [...]

The latest artist on the Alt Pop R&B train is Arlissa . Having recently scored a hit with a track featuring NAS, she’s about to release her début solo single. Stick And Stones is actually a pretty endearing slice of ElectroFolkSoul, that tends to get stuck in your head, and comes backed with reMixes from MJ Cole, Friction, Wookie and Hot Chip ’s Joe Goddard. Not bad for her first single. Goddard whips up a little of Hot Chip’s quirky ElectroPop magic into the the track. Replacing the tracks bombastic Folk with shrill synths [...]

Hot Chip sont de retour avec une partie de soccer dans leur tour bus. Réalisé par Peter Serafinowicz , le clip de « Don't Deny Your Heart  » rend des footballers et supporters gays, tout le monde s'aime dans un stade où au départ deux équipes se confrontent. Un clip amusant comme à leur habitude.

On a recent trip to Germany I was made privy to an up and coming French-Canadian artist named Dan Bodan . Based in Berlin, Bodan makes romantic electronic pop music stripped to the bare essentials and marinated with his soft yet hauntingly attractive voice. With his first single already out on DFA Records , his unique talents within the field of minimal electro-pop have not gone unnoticed. On "DP" and "Aaron" you can hear the ghosts of Tears for Fears [...]

Taken from the new-ish Album 'Look At Where We Are'.

Hot Chip are easily one of the most stylistically innovative bands to ever come around, and their new track Night And Day is no exception. So when someone pulls off a remix of them that actually works, we're always impressed. And this remix from Paris'  Dead Rock Machine   really works . This gem arrived along with a modest note in our inbox a few days back, and we had no idea what a punch it was going to pack upon first listen. It's brimming with French electro attitude, a touch of disco, and a pop topping [...]

Alors que Hot Chip font encore parler d'eux pour leur dernier album, voici le clip de l'un des titres phares « Look At Where We Are » . Réalisé par Danny Perez , cette collab' entre Domino Records et The Creator Projets est une réussite, des effets spéciaux sympa pour un rendu global plutôt cool. Ajoutez à ça un upload discret sur la chaine Youtube de Domino Records du remix de ce morceau par Major Lazer et vous avez votre plein d'actu à propos du titre.

Just in time for my return from the Pitchfork Music Festival in Chicago this weekend, Hot Chip have released a new video for their In Our Heads  cut "Look At Where We Are." Although they didn't play this track during their set on Saturday, their sunset-backdropped performance did reveal some previously unseen emotive subtleties to their music-subtleties that come in ample supply both on this song and in its accompanying video. This clip was directed by Danny Perez, who notably collaborated with Animal Collective two years ago for their Oddsac  project. Perez's uniquely skewed creative vision [...]

Their fifth album finds the English band sounding relentlessly alive and superbly crafted with a release that is one of the best of the year.
