"Creating music is an urge, I need to do it, it maintains some kind of personal balance I guess." While he claims to be the "weird cousin you don't see much" in terms of the Paris music scene, it seems relatively easy to spot producer, DJ and remixer extraordinaire Joakim on track lists, blog posts, event [...]

Christmas's not over yet...there's still time for a few more pearls inside your socks over the fireplace. This time Krikor's the Santa. The exquisite french producer that once had a dead band (Krikor and The Dead Hillbillies) to pronounce that "God Will Break it All" has now unburied the OST of 1981 John Carpenter 's movie named Escape from New York . Krikor placed his hands over "69th Street Bridge" and "The President is Gone" and the result is epic. The first track has a strong bass and some pleasent heaviness, so that Krikor defines it [...]

Principles Of Geometry will return next year with a new album, entitled "Burn The Land & Boil The Oceans", on Tigersushi Records. Before it's released, Joakim, Pilooski, and Krikor have reworked three tracks from the forthcoming record. Joakim's "tape edit" of Principles Of Geometry's "L.A." is such a great tune. Already supported by Erol Alkan. Give it a spin below: Principles Of Geometry: "L.A." [Joakim Tape Edit] Principles Of Geometry's "Edits" EP is out today. Buy here .

Samedi 20 février 2010 Purée, à peine arrivé et soirée déjà foutue: These New Puritans annulés (impossible apparemment de trouver trace du fanta(sque) orange Jack Burnett)... Ouinnnnnn... J'essaie de convaincre les autres de ramasser les gaules et de rentrer chez nous, en vain... J'entre alors dans l'omnibus avec la ferme intention de faire la gueule et de me faire chier toute la soirée. Pas facile sur le papier (on est à Saint Malo, c'est la Route du Wock) mais, heureusement, les premiers groupes à s'y produire auraient donné des envies de meurtres et de [...]

2 mai 2000 Cher journal, Quelques wewants & moi-mêmes sommes dans un bar, près du Café de la Danse où Flexa Lyndo, les Papas Fritas et Tahiti 80 vont se produire... Tony Goddess , le chanteur des excellents Papas Fritas, est avec nous. Le serveur vient de nous amener des kanterbrau à la place des kros qu'on avait demandées. Autant dire que ça a chié et qu'il a été obligé de nous les changer devant le regard abasourdi (c'est une image) du Tony à qui nous dûmes donner quelques explications à [...]

Despite having been producing for the last 10 years, and being aligned with Paris's more discerning circle of electronic producers (Tigersushi, Kill The DJ, Dirty), Krikor 's releases have been sparse, and seem to have flown under the radar. His music is challenging to say the least, occupying the defiantly experimental end of the spectrum. 2004's "No More OGM" is a discordant, 303-fuelled nightmare trip which rivals Mr. Oizo for sheer abrasiveness, while this year's Erasure Is Our Ally EP is one of wonky, sonorous house music. Those approaching the album with this experience of Krikor will [...]

Do you remember that great scene with Buffalo Bill dancing in "Silence Of The Lambs"? Well I think you do...and if you forgot watch that spooky clip below. Anyway he dances to Q Lazzarus wonderful "Goodbye Horses". There is not much to say about this one-hit wonder besides that Q Lazzarus is also the name of the afro-american singer in this band that split up in 1996. Here is the original together with a fine edit by Krikor . Q Lazzarus - Goodbye Horses [...]

Q Lazzarus is a female African-American singer, best known as a one hit wonder for the 1988 song " Goodbye Horses ", it features in Married to the Mob , The Silence of the Lambs , Clerks II and Grand Theft Auto IV . A only recent discovery of the brilliant krikor extension of the famous tune. Off beat 80s synth pop at its finest, this is a Bicep fav! Q Lazzarus - Goodbye Horses Q Lazzarus [...]

For those of you who remember the film The Silence of The Lambs you should recognize this song from one of the most disturbing scenes. For those who have forgotten, Buffalo Bill (the film's main antagonist) dances around partially nude. Disturbing huh? Q Lazzarus' track became infamous because of the scene above and has been parodied many times, like in Clerks II . The Krikor edit is formulated from the extended mix (with a longer intro and outro) with the bridge at the end removed. [...]

Image by flight404 The signal went dead here for about 10 months. To the subscribers that stuck around, I appreciate it. I'm offering this 80 minute mix (3x longer than usual) as a humble apology for the absence... I know its not really summer yet, but I always get summer mixes when the leaves are falling off the trees. So I am seeding this one early. Full disclosure: there really isn't anything summery about it. Just a lot of my favorite tracks. [...]
