Is Tropical are unstoppable! A lot of news come around as the release of their upcoming album "I'm Leaving" next Monday approaches : here is a little recap so you know what's going on! As you've heard, they were in Mongolia for a mini-tour in Ulaanbaatar and Darkhan city. We’ve heard it was kind of crazy, not [...]
Just ahead of their record release show in London, Dublin duo Solar Bears put together a selection of tunes near and dear to them exclusively for Best Fit. From dance music legends The Chemical Brothers, to newcomers Letherette, this mix spans the electronic music spectrum. When we spoke to John and Rian about the mix, they filled us in on why these particular tracks are so special. Memories of playing with Simian Mobile Disco in 2012, to a longtime admiration for LFO, each song holds a [...]
The first week of May brought some of the best weather we've seen in the capital this year followed by a bank holiday that has - so far - let us down, in typical British fashion. Thankfully, the same can't be said for the last week in music. As April ended, a flowering of incredible tracks dropped, keeping us challenged, entertained and soothed. At one end of the spectrum, the melodramatic, fragile sound of eighteen-year old London boy Jamie Isaac wowed the pants of us, with [...]
![Terriers – Sometimes When You’ve Gone Too Far, You Just Can’t Go Back [Best Fit Premiere]](http://cdn.elbo.ws/posts/4931152_lg.jpg)
Still riding the wave of success from their debut EP Marie Celeste , Dublin production duo Terriers debut their slow rolling funk-drenched single, ‘Sometimes When You've Gone Too Far, You Just Can’t Go Back’, here today. Somehow conjured up out of the darkest corners of Philip Glass’ psyche and splattered across the internet in various forms from CFCF ’s delicate arpeggios slowed to a drooling pace to Elite Gymnastics ’ psychedelic take on ambient, a new style of music has emerged, known as [...]
Having pulled the Grizzly Bear portion of this weekend's festivities, All Tomorrow's Parties are relying on Yeah Yeah Yeahs to wave the I'll Be Your Mirror banner but we're no less excited, for the reasons listed below. Dirty Beaches man Alex Zhang Hungtai is a tour de force on record and more importantly on stage. The Taiwanese-born Canadian guitarist's 2011 album Badlands was a stylised, eerie assault of distortion drenched [...]
A concise snapshot of what’s been getting us – and you excited – in the world of music these last seven days. London duo Snakehips continue their rise as producers to watch with this achingly sweet new cut featuring a guest turn from Best Fit favourite George Maple . Benefiting massively from Maple’s honeyed tones, ‘On & On’ glistens like speckles of sunshine bouncing off the ocean. One of the finest collaborations of the year so far. Emerging Stockholm duo [...]
The first of a new bi-weekly series, the Best Fit Mix will feature a specially curated selection of tracks from a wide variety of artists and producers with an aim to tap into their influences and unearth some hidden gems. Kicking things off is Prince Rama . Hot off the debut of their film 'Never Forever', the Brooklyn group Prince Rama has assembled a compilation of sounds that, much like the band, defy all classification and occupy a universe that is wholly their own. This [...]
The Canadian boy wonder himself, Ryan Hemsworth has single-handedly made the Backstreet Boys cool again by remixing ultra-hit “Show Me The Meaning Of Being Lonely”. The glitchy take even gets to shout out The Amanda Show several times. I predict some inappropriate tweets from Ms. Bynes coming in the near future. Download the track here . Via
Thanks to Dre for putting us on to Olympia, Washington's Braxton/Palmer , and more specifically, his excellent new debut two-part Creeper single, due next month on Ceremony Recordings . " Creeper, Pt. II " is a perfect introduction to the producer's glimmering, vintage deep house, and his preternatural flair for flipping vaguely familiar vocal samples - in this case, an inspired choice from D'Angelo - into haunting, soulful post-2-AM mantras (see also: " What I Want "). Creeper is out [...]
It's would seem you have to get up very very early to get a prime spot in the queues on Record Store Day . Too early infact for me, so after managing to convince myself that it was totally worth getting out of bed at 6:30am on a Saturday (yes on a Saturday) for limited edition vinyl. I managed to get my lazy arse down to Rise Bristol . But it was nearly 8am which was too late it would seem to get my hands on the free 'Music Finland with Line of Best Fit' mini compilation which i'd been [...]
Ryan Hemsworth . Light of my life; fire of my loins; king of the bootlegs; producer of the finest musical catnip. Ryan Hemsworth, I don't care who you are or where you're from (Nova Scotia), I just know that I want my Backstreet Boys remixes exactly that way (twitchy fist-pump lounge jams that periodically sample preteen Amanda Bynes squeaking "Amanda Please"). I feel like you're playing games with my heart a bit with your refusal to drop the full Y2K melodrama of the original chorus, but I'd still give you all I have to give (which is nothing, [...]
Canadian wizard producer Ryan Hemsworth isn't slowing down. Trying to capture a whole nother generation and market, he casts his ... Read the full article at http://www.prefixmag.com/news/ download-backstreet-boys-show- me-the-meaning-of-be/73492/
"I love you. Thank you for downloading. You are perfect" reads a rich text file accompanying the download ZIP of this new Ryan Hemsworth remix. Now, the producer's nostalgic reworking of Backstreet Boys ' 'Show Me The Meaning of Being Lonely' might not be perfect (he surely could have picked a more popular single if he really wanted those Hype Machine hearts) but the composed minimalist pop vibe makes it wholly worth swapping a shout-out tweet for a free download. Listen below and download here [...]

A concise snapshot of what’s been getting us – and you excited – in the world of music these last seven days.

A concise snapshot of what's been getting us - and you excited - in the world of music these last seven days. As April showers ruled the UK, we were sat at home getting hot under the colour about some incredible sounds. A new track from Brighton's Cave Painting premiered early in the week followed by the video to accompany NY trio Neonfaith 's 'Escape' - a song which we first heard last Autumn but finally got [...]
Not sure how I missed this gorgeous live take of “Crystallized” from Melody’s Echo Chamber last week — via UK music blog powerhouse The Line of Best Fit . Looks like the band has expanded their lineup, and sound, since I last saw them.
As the electro curators and beat makers of BeatauCue have their new EP "Lyrel"on its way, The Line Of Best Fit give you the exclusive stream of "lyrel" to listen HERE! Their two other new tracks “Kicking Back” and “Red Blocka”, future nightclubs hits, will be available on “Lyrel” entire EP, that you get right now [...]
