Happy Christmas (from the Hush Now)

noreply@blogger.com (Joseph) — Wed, 02 Dec 2009 08:46:00 +0000

Here it comes...

Standing out in the cold night air; lights scattered across houses; the snow's sent; red noses; hot chocolate and boots crunching into the earth as they walk past you.

Christmas.

If the Pillows had a brother band that sang in English he'd be called the Hush Now and he'd give away an amazing single just in time for your Christmas mix. Stick this one in between some of Vince Guaraldi's genius jazz renditions and you'll be set.

This Years Best WTF Track - "Snake"

noreply@blogger.com (Joseph) — Mon, 30 Nov 2009 02:27:00 +0000

At night there's a snake hiding under my bed...

I was sitting in the g-lab sorting through a giant batch of emails when I came across the "Reverse Engineering" remix of Oy's single "Snake". The strange voice inflections had me cracking enough to rip out the headphone chord so others could take part in the hilarious and bizarre musical experience.

The original track summons the spirit of salad fingers while enticing you with gorillaz style falsetto. The Reverse Engineering version is more comical, providing you with blunt bold face lyrics over a ghetto-golden-eye instrumental.

There's also an acid house version mixed by Sutekh, if you're into acid house. I find the genre to be near unlistenable seeing as I'm usually sober but for those mad trippers poppin fat mollie hits, you might enjoy this one.

PARTY TIP: Go find a huge crowd of people and play snakes (r.e. remix) on full volume. Whatever is meant to happen will happen.

Oy Album, "First Box, Then Walk" due for Feb 3rd 2010.

Here's the third single off the "Doo Doo Face" debut album from Cali's infamous "Wallpaper". Fresh into their tour with Peaches and Amanda Blank, the group has provided some stellar clips with each of their latest releases. The infectious loop, whimsical strumming and general care free nature of the song will have you smitten.

They're so money.

Kid Sister - Life On TV (Redlight Remix)

noreply@blogger.com (Joseph) — Thu, 26 Nov 2009 09:06:00 +0000

Redlight has put out some previously outstanding remixes but this newest Kid Sister jam is good enough to have ewoks jukin all over endor's forest moon. Adding some electro flair to the already ghettofab beat makes this one a perfect set closer. I will say that the mix runs too long and the ending synth chords clash against the original instrumental.

Don Diablo - I Am Not From France (Linus Loves Remix)

noreply@blogger.com (Joseph) — Wed, 25 Nov 2009 21:16:00 +0000

Don Diablo continues his "I Am Not From France" EP promotion (set for dec 11 release) with a brand new Linus Loves remix. Part ecstasy part Tangerine Dream, this latest mix is both relaxing and engaging. The more I listen to this one the more I fall in love with it (although it does sound a bit like a sample track used to show you what you can make with your new music software)

Major Lazer - Keep It Going Louder (Vid)

noreply@blogger.com (Joseph) — Tue, 24 Nov 2009 13:49:00 +0000

Major Lazer "Keep it Going Louder" from Eric Wareheim on Vimeo.

One of my favorite Major Lazer songs has gotten the Wareheim treatment (following a pattern of vibrantly colorful sexploitation clips). When I first heard this song I wondered how the masses would like it, being an extremely bubblegum pop song too cute for blog house and not quite accessible enough for the radio.

This video will be the way in which this song is accepted into the blog culture.

Oh and Great Job!

Golden Filter - Thunderbird [Video] + Commentary

noreply@blogger.com (Joseph) — Wed, 18 Nov 2009 21:32:00 +0000

The Golden Filter shelled out some big bucks to get R.L. Stine to write their storyboard for the new video single, "Thunderbird". Stine says, "The video reflects the narrative of a couple young teens, just having closed shop at Anthropology and wanting to unwind after a hard day of putting together several giant wooden deer decorations. The Golden Filter gave me a lot of artistic freedom with the project. I asked them what their ideas were and they handed me a piece of paper with three words on it:"

Stine enjoyed working on the project so much that he asked the Filter crew to collaborate on his upcoming feature length, "Lets Get Invisible!" (2011 /Focus Features).

5 Extremely Choice Tracks

noreply@blogger.com (Joseph) — Wed, 18 Nov 2009 07:36:00 +0000

Mailbox just exploded! When I was picking up the pieces and rummaging through the debris I found a few jems I'd like to share with you.

[South Central] These producers caught my ear when they remixed a Wombats track way back when. Their mixes are composed of pure adrenaline, testing the output of your sweat glands with every hyper active dance killer they put out. Look for their debut LP. "The Owl of Minerva" in 2010.

[Dada Life] By now you should know a little something about Dada Life. They are getting huge support form various Producers (Laidback Luke, Tiesto etc) and continue to put out signature sound with every mix (including a perfect blend of appropriate bass synth sounds).

[Viking] One of the blog cultures most promising young producers goes by the name of Viking. His best remix to date has Amanda Blank on the track. I'm speechless when listening to this mix.

[Blatta & Inesha] If you like the Dada Life track, you'll also enjoy this comparable new jam produced by B&I. In this tune you'll catch a nice blend of funk samples, bleeps, bloops and expletives.

[The Knocks] The Knocks have been bringing Heavy Rock Music to the internet since 2k___ and we're all happy about it. Under the Sheets is the second Goulding track they've conquered. Check it out if you like girls singing over dance music.

[Local Love] WHO IS DIARRHEA PLANET?!?!

noreply@blogger.com (Joseph) — Tue, 17 Nov 2009 06:41:00 +0000

Not very much is known about this local group that seems to have just appeared in the spotlight out of nowhere. People have their panties quite bunched up about their SUPER CRAZZZZY NAME which makes me think a lot of them missed out on 3rd grade.

Their shows live up to whatever pre-conceived notions you could come up with about whether you like them or not. Take the DP challenge and go see them live wherever they decided to play out next.

After listening to their Debut E.P. "Aloha!" a couple times, It's become pretty clear that they have no real agenda or targeted audience to please. They're most likely just a bunch of dudes playing music for fun.

Their sound is a mixture of poon-wave, post-soft-core-murder-surf and dick pop.

Love it or Hate it, here's their full E.P. FO FREE

Finally. New DTTT

noreply@blogger.com (Joseph) — Mon, 09 Nov 2009 20:50:00 +0000

Death to the Throne + the XX? Why didn't I think of that?

Probably because home boy mr. Phoenix has been out of sight, out of mind for some time; Most likely working on some official remixes or something.

So when listening to this new one, the anticipation built until I audibly shouted, "YES!" when that signature DTTT stutter beat came back.

enjoy:

Video of the Year: Wallpaper. - I Got Soul, I'm So Wasted

noreply@blogger.com (Joseph) — Sun, 08 Nov 2009 22:31:00 +0000

One of the best singles of the year has just become one of the best Videos of the year. For cereal, this is such a good video!

No other dance music video has captivated my attention all the way through as much as this one (skipping past this years trends of '80s donnie darko rip off' or 'i found a bunch of 80s cult fim clips and put them together to match 130bpm' or of course your standard 'skeet food on a ho's face' video. No!

The clip for 'I got Soul, I'm so Wasted' (Directed by Jason Zada) is drenched in creativity and club scene nostalgia. (I laughed out loud when he shoved the phone into that broads face). Also check out the equally brilliant 'T Rex' vid.

DJ Hell and Bryan Ferry have both been hard at work on each of their new albums, Hell's "Teufelswerk" is already receiving plenty of positive press and Ferry's work is still in progress.

The two of them come together on this new single, "U Can Dance" to create a driving dark dance hymn that shouldn't be missed.

Dragonette vs Buffet Libre

noreply@blogger.com (Joseph) — Sun, 08 Nov 2009 03:44:00 +0000

If you hadn't heard, Dragonette put out a new Album titled, "Fixin to Thrill" that has plenty of 'stuck in ya head' goodness like 'Fixin to Thrill', 'Liar', 'Pick Up the Phone' and the latest single, 'Easy' which recently got the Buffet Libre treatment (produced by BL and mastered by Sidechains)

I can't decide whether I like this or the original better. The BL remix injects the open spaces of the original with extra clicks, pops and overall glam that has you envisioning attractive eighties ladies with frizzy hair, bright lipstick and high heels strutting up and down the runway (of your MIND).

LBCK

noreply@blogger.com (Joseph) — Thu, 05 Nov 2009 01:31:00 +0000

LBCK are a duo based out of Long Beach California. It sounds like they may have gotten ahold of some Ed Banger compilations as you'll hear many familiar sounds of gritty punchy dance floor beats.

I have to say these guys are off to a great start as far as production goes. Their rendition of 'Day and Night' has replaced the Crookers remix as the new staple for hearing the signature Cudi theme in the club.

New Mmmatthias + New Algeronics

noreply@blogger.com (Joseph) — Tue, 03 Nov 2009 18:56:00 +0000

[Mmmatthias] In the last project he worked on, I ridiculed Mmmatthias for not putting enough effort into a Jeffer remix (although him and dAi should get credit for tinkering with the whole 'Power' album). Now he's paired with artist Gringo Oba Oba on a darker, more intricate movement which is part of a full EP you can find over at Beatport or Amazon.

[Algeronics] Algeronics also has an E.P on the way, called 'Me and You' which you can sample below. From what I'm hearing it sounds perfect for the wobbleheads out there. Purchase links to the full E.P. are available on his myspace. If that isn't enough for your bass fix, Algeronics has also re-envisioned one of your favorite Daft anthems with brilliantly placed basslines that will sweep you off your feet.

WKOBDYB found some time in between working on their new E.P "Love of Luxory" to create an edit of one of the new Kings of Convenience singles.

The result is something similar to a light healthy snack that you eat before bed. Best served at night time when your a little tired (but still awake enough to move your feet). Enjoy this one, I'll definitely be coming back to it.

Act Yo Age vs DCUP

noreply@blogger.com (Joseph) — Thu, 29 Oct 2009 05:16:00 +0000

Prove that you're the coolest kid in your hood when you drop the latest DCUP remix of Act Yo Age. You know the drill, DCUP is no stranger to NN. He puts out only ACE mixes and we love him for it. Not sure if it's the small room echo on the flute or what but this song reminds me of a Japanese garden for some reason. The only other song to have reminded me of a Japanese garden is the Hercules & Love Affair remix of Cut Copy's "Far Away".

Has anyone been in a Japanese Garden? whats it like? Would you listen to this if you were there?

Thanks Sweat It Out for another sweet free remix. I will always love you,

sincirely yours,
Joseph

Lady Gaga Joins the Warp Trend

noreply@blogger.com (Joseph) — Wed, 28 Oct 2009 20:46:00 +0000

Whether you're a lover or a hater of what the Beetroots are up to these days, you have to give them credit for starting this whole...not sure what to call it, "warp" noise trend. It'd be nice if her producer utilized the sound instead of completely ripping off Warp.

its not just Gaga though, Dada Life have a more tasteful interpretation

Osawa too

Seeing Gaga put this sound in her song means a couple things: blog dance continues to have a big impact on pop trends

AND

People will be more open to hearing warp (and other harder tracks) played on the dance floor instead of fleeing in fear thinking "WHAT IS THIS NOISE?!!!"

live chanting always makes me giddy. this looks like fun:

The set decoration for their show at I love Techno 2009 got me to thinkin, "what would it look like to have the Beetroots playing on a Covenant Battle Cruiser?":
