Titled, Mandroid , the new record follows on from his slick Goliath album released earlier this year and sees Knight take his rough, cinematic, electronics to ever darker places.

![[Audio] Pet Shop Boys’ ‘Vocal’](http://cdn.elbo.ws/posts/4986159_lg.jpg)
Vocal is the second full track to see daylight from SynthPop legends Pet Shop Boys ’ highly anticipated forthcoming new album, Electric . The Stuart Price produced LP will be the duo’s thirteenth studio album and from all accounts eschews your usual PSB ballad tracks for a short, sweet, collection of dance tracks. What we’ve heard so far from the album has been pretty modern Italo sounding. No so with Vocal , this drags Pet Shop Boys SynthPop into Euphoric Trance territory and as such is unsurprisingly being championed by Armin Van Buuren. Neil [...]

It has been a while since Vito (aka Aeroplane ) dropped a new mix. It's always exciting when we have the chance to check what the Belgian producer has been listening. What really captivate us about in his mixes, is the fact the he doesn't really care much if a track is more or less known. Do you understand the concept? This time he's gong more Italo Disco. To be honest, it sounds so good to listen to a brand new mix coming straight from the sky. Grab your copy below, and check out the tracklist after the jump. [...]
House hotness on Trax Records, press release above and get the release HERE.
Levende legende Giorgio Moroder leverde afgelopen maandag zijn allereerste dj-set in New York af. Hoewel de man naast hem, Chris Cox, waarschijnlijk vooral het technische gedeelte uit handen nam getuige de video's . Niettemin moet dat toch een fijne ervaring zijn geweest om te dansen op al die spacedisco hits van de man terwijl hij in de booth staat. Met dank aan Redbull Music Academy Radio is de set terug te luisteren.
Legendary Disco producer, Giorgio Moroder , played recently his first-ever DJ Set in the United States at Output in Brooklyn, NY. We're honest fans of the Italian disco icon, way before the recent boom, specially after his participation on Daft Punk's latest album "Random Access Memories." If you're not familiarized with the background of Giorgio Moroder, you should definitely make some research. He's the man responsible for convincing Donna Summer to sing, helping the disco queen produce some of her greatest hits. He also produced for notable artists such as David Bowie and Blondie amongst others. For more info [...]

Here’s something a bit special from Finnish artist Jesse Oliver of, one of our favourite production duos, Jay Lamar & Jesse Oliver , fame. Just released on On The Fruit Records is his solo Purified EP. This is a release that’s a little more personal, a little more experimental in it’s approach, and a little more conceptual that what we might expect from this guy, but the results speak for themselves. The three tracks on the Purified EP haven’t been near a computer in their production. this is all [...]
