Who could have forseen that 2 piano players and a drummer would be enough to change the way music will be listened to in the future. These guys could be as important as BATTLES. Includes KRAZY BALDHEAD (ED BANGER) and SPITZER remixes.
At roughly thirty-six minutes long, this 4 track single plays like an EP and holds its own throughout. It comes as no surprise that the centerpiece of the disc is the outstanding DFA remix, clocking in at just over nine minutes, with its catchy-as-hell pulsating beat and seizure-enducing disco...
FRANZ FERDINAND guitarist NICK MCCARTHY & ALEX WAGNER launch BOX CODAX - a catchy pop/disco/electro project on GOMMA. Meeting somewhere inbetween GNARLS BARKLEY, TALKING HEADS, WEEN & old school BEASTIE BOYS there fresh sound gets remixed by METRONOMY & NAUM GABO to sweeten the pot.
The first collaboration between the prolific avant-garde German duo and the synthesist and future U2 producer bore tasty musical fruit. Meshing Cluster's affinity for loops and repetition and Eno's penchant for processing sounds, the trio proves that ambient music does not merely consist of...
DELPHIC are the missing link between CHEMICAL BROS & NEW ORDER, between UNDERWORLD & MUSE. On "COUNTERPOINT," they offer an epic, ravetastic moment produced by EWAN PEARSON. Includes a tech house bumper remix from THE CHAIN and PAUL WOOLFORD offers a heavy hitting techno mix. Incl. a dub.

EMPEROR MACHINE - Seka Wants Your Vcs3 (A White Light Circus Mix)
EMPEROR MACHINE - Lift Up Chong & See
EM has recently remixed DAFT PUNK, ROYKSOPP, &
MUALLEM of COMPOST. Here "LIFT UP CHONG & SEE" is a stew of
eclectic analog synths and percussion, while "SEKA WANTS YOUR VCS3"
gets a remix from WHITE LIGHT CIRCUS (DEAN MEREDITH OF CHICKEN LIPS).
Repressed and back in. 5 of 6 12"s with two more electro disco from ANDY MEECHAM (aka 1/2 of BIG TWO HUNDRED and CHICKEN LIPS). Dirty, funky and gloriously anaglogue these tracks are sure to satisfy fans of the previous 12"s (which have been played bY EROL ALKAN, LINDSTROM and more).
Back in. The final 12" in the "VERTICAL TONES AND HORIZONTAL NOISE" series. Dope electro punk funk disco tracks that seem to channel DFA, VANGELIS and GIORGIO MORODER. Dancefloor friendly but challenging and edgy. This is dark and moody but never boring or sleepy. 3 tracks.
Bass driven instrumental club track that sounds like a hipper JAN HAMMER or one of JOHN CARPENTER's soundtracks (think "ESCAPE FROM NY" or "ASSAULT ON PRECINT 13"). Very dark and moody. The next cut is a more upbeat, lighter percussive track. And the last two are a bit more glitchy.
The now 2 piece band seems to have gained more street cred than you can shake a stick at lately and for good reason. Free Blood has has got some serious, serious heat on the mic and mixing board. Wow! That's what first thing that pops out of our mouths whenever we listen to...
HIGAMOS HOGAMOS - Major Blitzkrieg (Depth Charge Buzzer Remix)
HIGAMOS HOGAMOS - Major Blitzkrieg (Major Moonlight Remix)
HIGAMOS HOGAMOS - Major Blitzkrieg
A new project from two members of FORT LAUDERDALE. A swaggering, anthemic bass driven instrumental made up of breakbeats, electro and indie. Comes with remixes from MICKEY MOONLIGHT (ED BANGER) and labelmate DEPTH CHARGE (with a ballsy in yer face electro-fied mix).
Super obscure double pack release, with remixes from Martin Buttirch and Adultnapper. "'From a time when there were few 'rules' in the production of dance music, this track combines all sorts of elements that were heard in the music of the time. Subtle use of a sampled breakbeat, layered over...
HOT CHIP - Touch Too Much- Kollektiv Turmstrasse Remix
You know you're always going to get a heavy remix package when Hot Chip put out a newie and 'Hold On' is no exception. Switch weighs in with not one but two fierce bangers before Mock & Toof deep things out nicely on the flip. Disc two brings Berlin-resident Ewan Pearson in on the A side with an...
DFA's latest signing's J.O.Y. consists of K.U.D.O. (Major Force West, Skylab, Unkle) and Kan Tagaki (major force), who have recorded with and remixed everyone from david axelrod to the psychonauts to de la soul. For their first single, they’ve enlisted the help of Yoshimi of the Boredoms & Ooioo,...
“The mid to late 1980s was the period when I really started to buy a lot of records. I was particularly obsessed with (mainly) American bands like Sonic Youth, Big Black, Swans, Butthole Surfers, Flipper etc. etc. This project came about after a late night (slightly tipsy) conversation between...
JELO, ME & JOHN - Due To Love (Rudi Stakker Remix)
JELO, ME & JOHN - Due To Love (Ryan Riback's Overdue Remix)
"Due to love", co-produced with Me&John and featuring vocalist Kevin Drew from Broken Social Scene. This track isn't your regular JELO affair. A hooky vocal and progressive musical chords over tough tech house and rock infused drums gives this a big room feel. Teaming up this time with studio...
Chrysanthemum is pure pop with a decidedly dark and unique approach, catchy and indelible once heard. Mr Polar describes it himself as a confluence of the...
"Slightly" and "Gridlock" are two of the brightest flashing diamonds on Losoul's Care full-length. These are songs of enduring beauty, hymns to celebrate the joys of an endless club-night. Subtle rhythms -- cautious and coltish at the same time. Reduced grooves and deep sounds, richly filled with...
