1000 Minutes, its been awhile. Infact, so long that anyone that actually reads this blog has probably forgotten what the hell its all about. If you need an explanation and a look over my list so far, follow this LINK. 82. Mumford & Sons - Little Lion Man [4:07] [ time remaining 693:58 ] ( Drop IO ) ( Alt Link YSI ) This track for me is a classic example of how much your opinion of music can change when you attach a personal [...]
Hey guys! Been extremely slack because of tests and shit but finally here with some new joints to get your study on. Dizzee premiered this track on Radio 1 the other day, which will be on the re-release of Tongue N Cheek that he's preparing. For now we only have the radio rip of "Dirtee Disco" , albeit an ok quality one - the official track will be out on the 24th! I can see a few Dizzee fans not liking this one, as the title suggests has Dizzee rapping over a disco beat and features vocalist Daniel Pearce, [...]
Wow just noticed that I've got a truckload of stuff sitting here for you guys that I've forgotten to post so hope you dont mind a massive drop! Couldnt miss out this huge track from Rusko, given away for free on Mad Decent! Been getting some airplay for awhile now but i don't say no to anything free. Rusko - Da Cali Anthem Yep, more Rude Boy remixes. I'm [...]
We fully understand that when it's all said and done, just as with that other song , the amazing new clip for OK Go 's "This Too Shall Pass" single will far surpass the actual record in terms of public appreciation (especially for anyone that grew up playing Mouse Trap ), but let's give the Chicago act some credit: beyond being masters at making killer, on-the-cheap music videos, OK Go can also do brain-sticking pop (whether of the power-, alternative-, psychedelic-, or Prince-influenced variety) very well. In the nanosecond it took to re-play [...]
The end of '09 saw Brooklyn based Body Language ( www.myspace.com/bodylanguage ) on a string of successful dates across North America with Zero 7 and while they were out Neon Gold and RCRD LBL premiered two of the hottest dance remixes of the year! They are also working on an official remix for Neon Indian 's Should've Taken Acid With You .. keep you posted on that one. Also, the two guys are a production/writing team (worked on Passion Pit 's debut LP - Manners ) and the band are dropping a remixed EP of their debut, [...]
David Guetta is as busy as ever - he's just about to release his latest single featuring Kid CuDi "Memories" taken from the album One Love for which we can expect the video any day now! He's also just dropped an unreleased track featuring Novel, who also appears in the track "Missing You". Guetta continues his RnB influence in the new track "Hero", combining soulful vocals over an upbeat dance track. David Guetta - Hero (Featuring Novel) David Guetta - Memories (Featuring Kid CuDi) (David Guetta's Fuck Me I'm [...]

As like myself the list is eclectic and not definitive so feel free to comment with your roadtrip tracks! Here goes! First on the playlist would have to be "Cool Me Down" [...]
2009 is over already? It doesn't seem like long ago that I was writing my best of 2008 list and here I am again, doing the same for the final year of the noughties. Like I said last year, I find these lists a real conversation starter, or argument starter considering none of us ever agree. But I'm going to stress that this is my personal top ten and I must admit, it was a tough choice...but here goes. 10. LILY ALLEN - IT'S NOT ME, IT'S YOU [...]
Ke$ha has been ripping up the charts feeling like P Diddy with her debut TiK ToK, going platinum here in NZ and in OZ and also making it to #1 in Canada! Her debut album "Animal" is out in January 2010 and judging by the new track out from Ke$ha "Your Love Is My Drug" we can expect more party anthems to come. Check it out below! Ke$ha - Your Love Is My Drug Crookers also dropped a new track from the [...]
Passion Pit have taken to work on Max Tundra's "Which Song" taking the already upbeat song and pumping up a few notches! "Which Song" was released on Max Tundra's (Ben Jacobs) album 'Parallax Error Beheads You' this time last year, and is a perfectly good display of musicianship, however Passion Pit adds a certain specialness.. NZers - DONT forget to catch Passion Pit at Big Day Out!!! Max Tundra - Which Song Max Tundra - Which Song (Passion Pit Remix) [...]

Το καλοκαίρι τελειώνει επισήμως, 22 Σεπτεμβρίου βγαίνουν πάλι τα άπειρα cd και δεν έχω προλάβει να καταχωρήσω τα θερινά.Πολλές πόρτες άνοιξα, λίγο έμεινα.Το ημερολόγιο όμως πρέπει να ενημερωθεί. Αρχίζω λοιπόν. Passion Pit (michael angelakos, ian hultquist, ayad al adhamy, jeff apruzzese, nate donmoyer). Από εμβατηριακή άποψη οι φετινοί μου Kissaway Trail σκέφτηκα προς στιγμή κι ας μπατάρουν προς MGMT και JUSTICE. Το επιτυχημένο τους EP Chunk of Change, που γράφτηκε για δώρο Αγίου Βαλεντίνου μιας πρώην πλέον φιλενάδας, οδήγησε στο εξελιγμένο Manners με διάφορες καλές συμμετοχές. Αλμυρά νερά, ρεύματα ,πλημμύρες, [...]
Wow - it's been ages since I wrote anything vaguely resembling a blog. Apologies if you've been getting withdrawal symptoms and needlessly phoning the police... I'm back now, and ready to resume normal Some Of It Was True! service. The reason for the sustained silence is simple: Bestival - including a lunatic, super-hurried build-up, and a slow, pained comedown, and return to drab office [...]
Thought it was time for an update on the awesomeness that is Passion Pit . Pashy Pit have been my favourite electro-pop outfit this year, the dreamy falsetto and sexy layered synths have helped backup the statement which haunts many an artist - The Next Big Thing. Passion Pit have well and truly arrived, with their debut album Manners released earlier this year getting massive reviews and the boys just announced a Fall Tour in the U.S! Anywho, heres a few remixes that I havnt posted yet, a few new and some not so, but all will [...]

Passion Pit are well and truly taking over the world (and by the world, I mean blogs) so if y0u havn't checked them out yet, you should have a good reason! You can always catch up by reading our previous posts on the electro/rock/pop band to check out their album and get a bit of background deets. They are running a remix competition over at The Daily Rind where anyone can download a snippet of "Little Secrets" to remix and voters pick their faves, right now the front runner is the [...]
