Hey! whats going up over there?
Yes, yes, I know... it's been a long since the last post, but hey, I make this as a hobby calm your tits. Ok sry for that, sometimes I think I'm funny... any way, why I'm here? easy, just to keep uploading, eventually, quality posts with interesting information or just with awesome music. This post is one of the second type:
Here's the last master piece of Soulwax celebrating the 30th anniversary of Play It Again Sam (PIAS), 2manydjs have made this special mix containing tracks that were released on the label over the years. PURE GOLD. enjoy!
And, as an extra (because I know you love extras) a Soulwax documentary on Canvas, Belgian Television. High recommend to see (or to start to see and finish burning out your house... for example) bye!
The answer is: a fucking huge mountain of work (so many electronic music news this summer... Shit!). Now this is like when you wake up from a dream, crowded of naked chicks and you realize that that was only a dream and you have things to do (things sucks), something like that metaphor was the summer of the NoizeBusters team.
So, what we are going to do? for the moment, let's start with the last job of ZZT. And, maybe, in the future we make a post of random music on a compilation of this summer best tracks for you bitches, bitches love random music.
The cut and paste hybrid of dance and hip-hop that is Nickel Und Dime has actually been around since last November. To mark the recent release of the Partys Over Earth remix album, which features reworkings by the likes of Julio Bashmore, Erol Alkan and Justice, the duo commissioned the brilliantly named Femme de $arkozy to make a video for Nickel Und Dime to help "raise it out of cult obscurity". The resulting vaguely NSFW video features heavily edited clips taken from the Bob Fosse-directed 1983 thriller Star 80, a film based on the true story of murdered Playboy model Dorothy Stratten and seems to perfectly encapsulate the song's slightly menacing seediness.
Sir Bob Cornelius Rifo better known as the Bloody Beetroots, returns this summer with a pumping new track suitably titled “Rocksteady”. Set for a June 26th release on Ultra Music, “Rocksteady” is the smash follow-up to his massive club record “Church Of Noise” which featured Sweden’s master of punk rock and The (International) Noise Conspiracy’s Dennis Lyxzén.
The genius Bob Rifo wrote for everybody this:
‘Rocksteady’ embraces the garage-punk sound that the Bloody Beetroots Projects is so famously known for – rock infused exploding beats and vigorously energetic electro house. Keeping in theme, the suitably rock ‘n’ roll video, directed by Wyatt Neumann, makes its debut June 28, just two days after the single is released. Sir Bob talks about his experience on set “You know what, my brain does not collect recent data but last week I was in Death Valley and it was mad fun! Girls, Shotguns, 70’s muscle cars, Dust…Nice!”
If you want to hear the single live, DJ/Producer Sir Bob Cornelius Rifo has teamed up with his Italian partner in crime, Tommy Tea from the FXs, for another Bloody Beetroots DJ Set tour this summer. Don’t expect the same old show though, the masks are different, the sounds are changing and they have brand new hi-octane club banger ready to annihilate the dance floor.
Fuck Yes! I Love You All! Sir Bob Cornelius Rifo
So, this is great, after the successful church of noise theme we all were waiting for something more, and here is it. That was a long wait but it worth's if Bob keeps his quality

I know that for some dubstep fans (or people who appreciate intact eardrums and variance in music’s amplitude) talk about Skrillex as a dubstep producer might be considered blasphemy because his style is the “bro-step”. He is a great producer anyway call it what you want, and with the music, like with everything, if you don't like something don't look/listen/lick/eat/or whatever you're going to do with it. This time Spy Films director Arev Manoukian shoots his latest film featuring electronic music artist Skrillex & Wolfgang Gartner . This film is the hauntingly dark journey of a newly married man trapped in a deep erotic dream. The dream quickly turns into a nightmare as he spirals down into The Devil’s Den. Check out!!
Here is A-trak and Dillon's summer anthem "Money Makin'"!! came out today on Fool's Gold. One of the most mature songs I ever listened and a video that keeps with the two DJs absurd sense of , they star in the clip as repairmen who transform a busted ATM into a hard-partying dance machine that takes the big city by storm... until the dough runs out.
Directed by Ben Solomon and Daniel B Levin, and featuring cameos from P-Thugg of Chromeo, rap legend Greg Nice, Action Bronson and more, "Money Makin'" is yet another must-see FG music video, and the perfect kick-off to summer jam season. Click here to buy the single.
Fuck yes! that Gigamesh sure is great. Check out the brand spankin’ new video for the jam “Dream On”. This is the last track on his next EP “All My Life”. The EP is out on May 28th via Kitsuné, if you haven’t already previewed it run bitch and listen it below because is great!
Peep the video and enjoy the fresh, funky moves from the world’s greatest dance trio Turbo, Kelly + Ozone, better known as TKO!
American Dream Part II is released June 11th on Totally Enormous Extinct Dinosaurs debut album 'Trouble'. This video is a collaboration between ADAM and Totally Enormous Extinct Dinosaurs. TEED's debut album 'Trouble' available to pre-order now here.
Martin Solveig is back with a new episode of SMASH. This time for the track that gives name to his incoming EP, 'The Night Out'. An epic and hilarious chapter from one of the best Djs and producers on earth. A room with A-Track, Porter Robinson, Zedd, Dillon Francis and an invisible Madeon. I bet that more of one will kill for five minutes in that room!
You can order Martin's E.P. "The Night Out" on iTunes
And for those who really are interested about music, here you have a little of history about this mastermind...
...perhaps it is our well-documented mutual antipathy, or maybe it is our
well-documented ignorance, but Britain’s perception of French music is
plain wrong. On the surface, it is indeed the land that listens to
Europap and still loves to jive badly to La Bamba ’ but scratch beneath
the surface and you’ll find a wealth of talent gasping for air. It has a
long and noble tradition of fine singers, musicians and producers, from
y y to Guy Cuevas, from Jacques Dutronc to the Saintly Serge Gainsbourg
and Jean-Claude Vannier; from Ze Records to Africanism! and from
Cerrone to, yes, Martin Solveig.Martin Solveig has been involved in
music since he was knee-high. As a boy, he studied classical music. By
age 13 he had acquired his pair of decks and began DJing, although it
wasn’t until 1992 that he discovered electronic music. His schooling
came courtesy of a sales job at the vaunted Parisian record store Champs
Disques on Champs Elyses. Martin’s big break, at the tender age of 18
and thanks to the encouragement and support of mentor Claude Monnet,
came when he landed the residency at prestigious Parisian nightspot Le
Palace. A move to Les Bains Douches, a legendary club in the city, and
then Solveig’s own Pure parties at Queen cemented his growing reputation
as one to watch. But simply being a DJ has never been enough for Martin
Solveig and his production ideas soon began to filter out on to vinyl,
as he always knew they would. If Heart Of Africa, on his own Mixture
label, drew admiring glances, it was his contribution to the Africanism
series (with Bob Sinclar and DJ Gregory), the stunning Edony, which
turned heads. Originally intended purely as a club track, Edony shot to
the top of club charts and from there launched itself into mainstream
arenas. Martin’s debut album, Sur La Terre, was the work of a young man
bursting with ideas, styles, and experiments. Over the next few years
Solveig hit hard with one killer cut after another, abetted by some
frankly brilliant mixes by the likes of Pete Heller and Mousse T.
Rocking Music, with its echoes of Prince and Michael Jackson, was an
instant anthem wherever it was played and transferred from underground
floors to Radio 1 playlists with consummate ease. The follow-up, I’m A
Good Man, voiced by legendary growler Lee Fields, was a plaintive cry
from a wronged man and in Mousse T’s Breakbeat Mix brought a taste of
Noo Orleans funk to modern electronic dancefloors. ‘The new album
probably has a slight flavour of the ’60s and ’70s, which have always
embodied a certain freedom for me, being a child of the 80s, the
economic crisis, the condom generation?!
Then I’m into wine, parties and
low necklines, so I feel quite in tune with the title.’ So says Martin
of his latest album, Hedonism, which amply showed the maturation of his
productions, moving effortlessly from the familiar terrain of
four-to-the-floor rhythms, to take in the sub-R&B of Black Voices or
the audacious modern reading of Requiem Pour Un Con. ‘Serge Gainsbourg
is a master and I wanted to pay humble tribute,’ says Martin. ‘The song
provides a little break in the album’s progress, as well as a French
touch that I’m attached to. I think the best songs are made to last and
be covered. New versions always have something new to add, even if they
never achieve the magic of the original.
‘This cover version, defiantly
electronic, compared to the sparse and organic original, ably
demonstrates the Solveig modus operandi, producing music that is
simultaneously synthetic and natural, warm and glacial. ’I use both
electronics and live musicians, sometimes with classical instruments
like keyboards, horns and any piano instruments,’ explains Solveig.
‘Most of my drums are programmed, but what I really love is using
classical instruments with an electronic device. For example I used a
big B3 Hammond organ, recorded a whole session with a musician and then
took bits from it and made it sound almost like an electronic sample.
You still have the good quality of the instrument, but with the ability
to make it a bit faster or more repetitive or whatever. That’s what I
like ’ to get inside an organic sound and make it electronic.’ Martin
Solveig is not prolific, but everything he makes is worth waiting for.
He has always eschewed the remix treadmill, not because he disapproves
of it, but it is simply not his path. Solveig’s destiny lies elsewhere.
His life is good. Fulfilled. ‘Even if I sometimes grumble a bit from
tiredness, I’m a child blessed by fortune and very happy in his everyday
life,’ chuckles Martin. ‘I should quote Karl Lagerfeld: ’Holidays are
for people who work’.’ And all work and no play would make Martin a very
dull boy indeed.
Pendulum formed in their home-town of Perth (Western Australia) in 2002, when producers Rob Swire and Gareth McGrillen teamed up with acclaimed local DJ Paul 'Elhornet' Harding. While their individual formative roots ranged from producing drum & bass, breakbeat and hardcore, to playing in metal and punk bands, their comparable talents proved an unstoppable force when they managed to single-handedly conquer the world of drum & bass in their first 12 months together.
And the theme of this post is that this guys recently have made a remix of the well-known track of Prodigy "Voodoo People". And have counted with the help of the director Ron Scalpello to make a great video. The track gets a techo/drum and bass induced update by experimental Aussie upstarts Pendulum. Needless to say, it doesn't quite match the original, but it still delivers a techo-fused boot to the throat. Enjoy.
Just in case you managed to miss it somehow, the new Radio Soulwax hour (Featuring the Soulwax remix of the Arcade Fire that's sent the world a bit crazy) can now be seen here!!!
The third leg in a trilogy of hours that contain animations that 2manydjs have made for the Under The Covers live DJ show, this one is decidedly more danceable. It mainly consists of a recent releases and has a few exclusive unreleased tracks, with some classics thrown in for good measure.
They start out with Saam Farahmand's amazing trailer for RSWX called "Machine" which was a joy to play in front of big audiences if only to see people's reactions on their faces, and continue onwards with what is possibly the most party-friendly show on RSWX yet.
This mix contains quite a few Belgian tracks, and only one animation that was made for a specific market, see if you can guess which one it is.
And the winner for most charming video of
2012 so far goes to: “New France (Feat. Zola Jesus)” by Orbital, from
their upcoming album, Wonky, out on April 1 via ACP
Recordings. It follows a stuffed toy lion that ventures away from the
innocent playtime he has with his child owner, to a life of clubbing,
pool and bro hangouts. Directed by Ian Bucknole.
Veteran UK electronic music duo Orbital will be releasing their first
new record in eight years soon, so there’s definitely a good amount of
buzz leading up to it. This is the latest video and single off
that new album. There’s two huge positives right there. Combined? Music
bliss.
Finally came the music video for the track that gives name to the last EP of the italian duo who is breaking all the dancefloors where ever they go. We are talking, obviously about Cyberpunkers!!
Where do you head musically, once you have produced the top notch street rappers and nu disco bands in your home country of Germany earning them a string of top 10 hits and multi gold status albums?
You turn your skills to the upfront club sounds of House and electro and ace the dance charts with a string of jaw-droppingly original cuts... Well you would if you are TAI (aka award winning producer Tai Jason), and he’s currently on fiiiyaaa.
After a childhood spent living around the world, from the UK to Thailand, as a teenager, TAI found his heart lay deep inside an MPC drum machine, and spent years collecting his legendary hip-hop beats and programming those effortless grooves. He has turned his production expertise to the club-floor producing cuts, from his stunning studio in Germany.
Being one of the most unknown faces on today’s market he’s nevertheless an extremely high demanded remixer with releases on the top labels of the electronic music section, that's possible for things like his last EP called "At The Disco" thas was released on Dim Mak Records.
Check out more of this EP, and if you like it buy it here!
The french electronic band The Shoes get Jake Gyllenhaal to star in
the music video for their song “Time To Dance” . Donnie Darko does not like the hipsters, and hasan instinctmurderer whodo not know, but we like. The video was shot by acclaimed director Daniel Wolfe
of Somesuch & Co films (Plan B - The defamation of Strickland
Banks). Gyllenhaal previously appeared in a video for Vampire Weekends single ‘Giving up the gun’ as a crazed tennis player. You can already buy Time To Dance EP.
We could listen the remix of SebastiAn a couple posts ago, but in this EP are also included remixes of Esser and Rocky Piano. The french duo is on tour in their natal country so if you are there, don't doubt it and go to see them. For the rest enjoy eight and a half minutes watchign a psychopath killing hipsters. Great track. Beautiful video!
Three artists, one song. The song is "DoYaThing" featuring Gorillaz (probably the most successful virtual band ever), Andre 3000 (a famous american rapper), and James Murphy (you may know him of LCD soundsystem). The song was released last week and today the video for the track has launched, of course featuring the super excellent animation that we are used to see from the Gorillaz. You can download it here!
Definately one of the best tracks from his last album 'Living The Edge Of Time'. After his video for "Always on the run" Yuksek bring us the last video that will be launched next monday 27th. The aftermath: ‘Living On The Edge Of
Time’, an album inspired by the numbness of life on the road, the
feeling of being alone in a crowd and constant need for creative
exploration – but also a collection of unabashed, jubilant pop tunes;
introspect and uplifting at the same time
Butbesides thevideo, this songhasbeenremixedmajestically by one of the most exciting djs and producers to explode onto the scene in recent years. Of course we are talking about Brodinski and his encompass noisy techno, bass heavy house through to more melodic minimal that makes of this track a masterpiece.
We talked about this huge original track a few posts ago. Now the Italian duo of wrestlers are back with a killer video for their track 'Blue Demon'...WILL BE SAFE IN THE DARK
This is what happens when two heavy names in the electro underground scene decide to collab together! The track will be officially released in mid-August, but it has already been presented in live atExtremaOutdoorEindhoven.
After a long talk Diplo and Don Diablo decided that such a cool track deserved anequally awesome video.
They looked for directors and actors in Hollywood, L.A,...and afternot findingwhat they wantedandpretty muchgaveup for lost. Then an idea came to their minds. An idea about the
favorite dutch due Zanger Rinus. This is what happened when Zanger Rinus & Deborah received a promotape of their "Make you pop" track...
Antichrist have now officially been making music for a whole year! This band has managed to rise dramatically, perhaps for its mix of electro and dubstep and... do not know, who gives a shit? are good at what they do and that's what it takes. This year they've got a lot of fans around the world and that is what encourages them to continue working.
Is assumed that this year we have new EP, I hope you do not make us wait too long. For now we can hear his latest original mix:
And we can enjoy too their latest remix:
EXTRA: we couldn't talk about a remix of the last track of Tiger & Wolf and not about the original one and another remix that F.O.O.L. have done, so here they are:
This French dance wunderkind Madeon wows the crowd a few days ago at Hull City Hall with a spectacular (maybe spectacular is not enough to express the way that this guy selects the tracks for his mixes) set during Pete Tong's show. Seems easy to launch so many samples with a huge mix of basses and make it sounds good but not... f**king electro Mozart you are awesome!
