Intimacy was one of the best albums released in 2008 and the proof that Bloc Party are able to reinvent themselves whilst staying true to their indie roots. Their first album, Silent Alarm, had been remixed (by Ladytron, M83, among others) and Intimacy just received the same treatment. We loved the original gloomy version of Signs and Armand Van Helden made it a very danceable tune. Make sure you check the video below! Kele and his bandmates played two sold-out gigs last weekend in London, and are about to tour America. Bloc [...]

I've been thinking a lot lately about the relationship between music and the current economic climate. As the artistic world collectively looks towards community building and proactivity, music trends thus far in 2009 suggest the reverse. Unlike other art forms, we form a personal connection through music, searching for voices and instrumentation that echoes our own inner thoughts. In tough times we can surround ourselves with bright colors and optimistic exteriors, but in our own heads we remain unsure and unsettled. So far in 2009 we've seen DJs re-embrace the dark rhythms of dubstep and drum & bass [...]
A little preview for Bloc Party's Intimacy Remixed album, which will be released on the 11th of May on a limited edition CD or triple 12". It will also be available digitally. The album comes with remixes from Gold Panda, Mogwai and Filthy Dukes and will lead off with this remix of Signs by Armand Van Helden which will be out on the 27th of April.

Bloc Party have got to be one of the most remixed bands around. The band themselves clearly embrace this as they are now set to release their second remixed compilation. In 2005 we saw the release of their critically acclaimed debut, Silent Alarm, shortly followed by the brilliant 'Silent Alarm : Remixed'. Now, four years on we are told of the forthcoming release of 'Intimacy : Remixed' a collection of reworks which make their 2008 release more suitable for dance-floors than the original indie anthems. 'Intimacy : Remixed' is released on May 11th this year [...]

Song Crystal Stilts ~ " Love Is a Wave " myspace: 2,716 mp3 download Crystal Stilts are out of Brooklyn and are playing a grip of shows at SXSW this weekend. Their sound is like soulless surf music. I think last time I said they sounded like The Velvet Underground decided to go to the beach for the day. Video [...]
Bloc Party 's album from last year is gonna be remixed by some interesting and huge acts. The remixes are gonna come out on the 11th of May, preceeded in April by a single, featuring the Armand Van Helden remix of Signs. This tune isn't too impressing (check the vid), but, on the other hand, Villains made a tasteful banger out of the opening epic track Ares. Reminds me of South Central edits with the sirenish 'ALARM ALARM'-sound. Villains are from LA and I love them since their Thriller remix and the [...]
That clip above is parental controlled and we cannot foresee what happens if you got not youtube-account and cannot prove that you're 18+. So at that point we warn you: if you're soft, wait some hours for the next article to read. But we do not care about underaged grrls reading the blog, that got no clue of faking an ID or (a ton easier) faking your age2.0.

It's no Silent Alarm , but Bloc Party's rush-released Intimacy is at least the best BP album since Silent Alarm . Meaning it was better than A Weekend In The City . It's not an opinion I can get a lot of support for amongst the people I talk to because not a lot of the people I talk to still listen to them after Weekend . But don't go by my ears, take the band's decision to release a track-for-track remix recreation of this year's LP, as they did [...]
Like its older brother "Silent Alarm" the dance floor friendly jams from Bloc Party's third studio album "Intimacy" will be tweaked, cut and shuffled by the likes of Filthy Dukes, No Age, Mogwai and Phones and resold as "Intimacy Remixed". If the album is half as interesting as the below video for Arman Van Helden's remix of "Signs" then it should easily be album of the year. In a throwback to the industrial dance music videos of the nineties human anatomy is replaced with clubbing paraphernalia, you know, dials for eyes, LED lights for spines, disco balls for [...]
