Our first event features Simian Mobile Disco at Webster Hall on December 6th. Our prize package includes VIP tickets to the show [...]
Although belated this review is a necessity. If you're in Berlin in September, Berlin Music Week is a must. Describing the city of Berlin isn't a hard task if you're here for a week of music. They live and breathe partying and when they have their biggest music week in town they definitely don't leave any stone unturned. To say we were excited is an understatement. Leaving Outlook Festival in Pula, and traveling north 1200km en route to Berlin was not a minute task, as we had to travel across 5 countries, the majority in German, [...]
5. Surtek Collective - Shari A big forthcoming release on BoysNoize Records is from Surtek Collective . The first video and teaser of things to come is "Shari" a punch bowl mix of a TV dance proggy filted with rather fitting footage of a space craft heading for the orbits! 4. Simian Mobile Disco - A Species Out Of Control Simian cut some shapes in a seriously tripped out manner. A quick hat tip to 802s visuals and DMT, hi-oh! [...]
Space's 23rd birthday coincides with one of We Love's biggest events to date. The Chemical Brothers make a rare appearance with a DJ set in a room perfectly suited to their immersive sound. A pair of the finest producers in music today, Simian Mobile Disco are in support. Wearer of many hats Nathan Detroit and [...]
"A little nonsense now and then is relished by the wisest men." -Willy Wonka The Beach Boys – “That’s Why God Made the Radio” The video for the titular track off The Beach Boys' reunion album is packed with enough sun-soaked blissful footage to make you want to pick everything up and move to SoCal. First Aid Kit – “Blue” First Aid Kit nabbed legendary Swedish actress Ewa Fröling for their latest video. Casual film viewers might remember Fröling from the 2009 Swedish adaptation of [...]
Remember nu-rave? When bands like Klaxons and Hadouken! smashed a few synths into the faces of the indie crowd who lapped it up like fluorescent puppies, who dropped it again a year later. The glow sticks ran out and the 'Make X not Y' tees suddenly weren't cool any more. But no sooner had the neon paint dried on the desolate ground of Reading festival that a new breed of British electro rose from the ashes, acts that had more to their sound than whoop, whirr, splat. Artists such as LCD Soundsystem , MSTRKRFT [...]
[ the official image of Sonar; a still from Sergio Caballero's forthcoming film, 'La Distanca' ] The city is buzzing. Club-rats, artists, and industry folk of every rank have flocked here to witness what is widely considered to be one of, if not the most influential three days in the world of electronica, internationally. We'll see about that, as low-life will be on site, reporting the tides and triumphs of this so anticipated celebration of the multi-media arts. " Sónar once again makes Barcelona the world capital [...]
Simian Mobile Disco Unpatterns out on 5.29 Stream | MP3 | CD | Vinyl B- Let's compare Unpatterns to a conversation over dinner. You're sitting across from James Ford and Jas Shaw of Simian Mobile Disco—who are hosting—there's a plate of food in front of you, probably a drink, and the conversation wheels between everyone. At times, the discussion itself dominates your attention, overwhelming whatever sensory imput the food and [...]
What's up everyone? There are few things I enjoy more than the return of summer in Montreal, and this isn't solely due to the sunshine and glorious weather (although that obviously helps). May also signals the return of some of Montreal's favorite musical events, specifically Piknic Electronik (which starts tomorrow) and the Mutek festival (which takes place at the end of the month). As if that wasn't enough, Simian Mobile Disco will also be stopping by La Mouche next Saturday night as part of their world tour promoting the release of their brand new album [...]
"A little nonsense now and then is relished by the wisest men." -Willy Wonka Bear in Heaven – “Sinful Nature” Pretty Woman probably isn't too many people's go-to movie to watch while tripping. That didn't stop Bear in Heaven in their latest music video, in which they give Julia Roberts and Richard Gere a weird and psychedelic reinterpretation. Darkside – “A13 Ever watch Star Wars and wonder what those pesky Sand People do when they're not terrorizing [...]
James and Jas of Simian Mobile Disco dropped the Unpatterns LP today on Wichita Recordings . The duo will be conjuring up magic live via subtractive synthesis at Fabric in London this Friday evening to celebrate the release; (tickets and info here ). The publishers have generously and wisely made the entire LP available for free streaming. (And thankfully, they have opted to leave out the frustrating fade ins/outs that are typical of many SoundCloud "previews" these days). If you haven't heard their classic debut LP [...]
In an interview with UK newspaper The Guardian , Simian Mobile Disco revealed their favourite samples to include in their music. With their new album 'Unpatterns' set to be released shortly, this is what the UK duo had to reveal. Roland 808 Kick Drum It was both hip-hop and house, it formed and invented a lot of club music. People recreate that sound to this day, but when you hear a real 808 doing it, you can still tell. It's an analogue machine, which means a new sound is generated every time it's [...]
Simian Mobile Disco 's Unpatterns is one of our most anticipated releases of the year. Ahead of its release they have just dropped the new video for club banger Put Your Hands Together. Created by ISO Studios Hans Lo , the 7-minute long video is a hypnotic mesh of lines and colors that somehow totally coordinate with the music and send us into a trance like state! Simian Mobile Disco: Put Your Hands Together (Video Premiere) via Hard Candy . [...]

Get ready, because Fixed has a huge weekend in store for us with two awesome back-to-back parties with The Twelves on Friday and Simian Mobile Disco on Saturday. We're giving away a pair of tickets to each event, enter the contest after the jump. On Friday, Brazilian duo The Twelves will hit up Good Units, along with Fixed's JDH. One of the coolest things about The Twelves (other than their music) is their insane ability to remix on the fly. On a side-note, their remix for The Black Kids' "I'm Not Gonna Teach Your Boyfriend How To Dance [...]
Simian Mobile Disco have released a video for their newest single Gizzard out now on their own label Delicasies . The single is available both digitally and on 123 vinyl.

Sin duda, la sigla NSFW tiene muchos efectos sobre la gente que la ve por ahí regada en la internet actualmente, puede hacer que evadas un link sin reconsiderarlo -como lo haría un niño inocente tras encontrar mal en su camino- , o bien, que rápidamente lo sigas "antes de que lo quiten de la red" o que regresen tus papás a la casa. Inicialmente, por supuesto, la intención es que tengas precaución antes de hacer click sobre esta sigla (originada hace no más de 3 años y) ahora muy común dentro del " netspeak [...]
Our first encounter with Fixed was just over a year ago (Halloween 2009 with Boys Noize), and we have to say, it's been quite a ride. One thing we've learned about Fixed is that they have amazing taste in music, bringing us a wide variety of forward-thinking electronic artists. Fixed residents JDH and Dave P have the uncanny ability to tailor their opening sets to the style of the featured guests, preparing the audience for what's to come while showcasing their own multi-faceted talents. This weekend, Fixed will officially ring in six years of radness by continuing their [...]
