Miami Horror, released!!!

November 13th, 2008 | Posted by Christopher

I never thought I’d see the day — and I’m sure neither did he, where 22 year old DJ/Producer from Melbourne would see his own EP come to fruition.  It is indeed being released TOMORROW! (The 14th of NOV.2008).  I couldn’t BE more thrilled.  

You probably mosly know Miami Horror♥ from some pretty smashingly hot and superfresh retro inspired remixies … filled with synth, killerhooks and dancyness!

He’s remixed bands like Pnau, The Presets, Faker, Datarock, Party and Midnight Juggernauts. In the space of a year, he’s turned megastar on the interwebs and blogosphere.… Read more »

Thursday, Throwdown

October 23rd, 2008 | Posted by Christopher

There are a couple of bands that are really jiving with my chi. I’ve fully been working overnights doing Xmas setups at the department store — and the IPOD filled with this kind of stuff has helped a horrid experience become like a hot-knife through hemp-butter. Read more »

Ladyhawke - Debut, reviewed.

October 21st, 2008 | Posted by Christopher

I’m feeling blue. I don’t usually do a bad review. Mostly because it leads to BORING reading. This album is NOT BAD! It’s just, lackadaisical. I want to squirt petro onto the fire, but I wouldn’t do that because I burnt myself as a child spraying hairspray and lighting a match. No, that’s not why I have bad spelling and grammar. I’m an artist, not a dictionary. McCoy would be jealous … except, he used Doctor … never mind, I digress. Read more »

So TUMS UP for best new band name … EVER?!  I’m insanely sick, and can only come-up with a somewhat ‘tossed salad’ … if you will, posting.  Not in the tossed salad way you think I meant, either.  I ♥ cold meds.

Last.FM sayz:

Luke Smith and Shaun Libman always wanted to form an electronic band; the only problem was they couldn’t play any electronic instruments. After their initial attempt at being an “a cappella electronic band” failed, they turned to a nearby drum machine and synthesizer (both made before the members…

Have you ever heard a REMIX of a song & really creamed over it … then you hear the original and you’re like, WTF?!?  That’s what happened over ‘This Heart Attack’ by FAKER.  They released a wicked remix single & there’s a couple of tracks that I really ♥.

I thought I’d post them both and then give you a chance to hear/watch the original tune.  Make sure you hear both remixes before you watch the vid.  Hopefully you’ll have the same reaction I had.  Then I can say I told… Read more »

My mouth waters for the day when these two Sweedish boys release a new album. If you’ve never checked out ‘Boylife’ … where have you been?!?!

I thought I’d post a couple videos the duo have done, that I enjoy.  Tomorrow’s FRIDAY!

Keytar + Synth + Beats = ♥

If this doesn’t take your rainy days and Mondays away … I promise to personally mail you a Xanax.  Je suis trés trés allumé.

They call themselves Grafton Primary.  Gee, I’m starting to think Australia is giving Sweeden a run for it’s money … sexyelectrobeatishly speaking.

meet electric♥youth

September 3rd, 2008 | Posted by Christopher

Electric Youth are everything that I love about where duo’s like Bronwyn & Austin are taking music.  I dig the pure creativity, the electro-vibe and the synthtasticality of it all … ♥♥

I happened to discover Electric Youth as I was browsing a few of my favourite electro-pop blogs.  They’re completely fresh, not even signed.

♥Juvelen♥♥♥

August 24th, 2008 | Posted by Christopher

Honestly, I haven’t been as excited to discover a new artist on last.fm in a LONG time!  NOT only that, but have EVERY song by said artist work my wiggle!!!  His name is ‘Juvelen’.

He says about himself:

Straight from the motherfuckin dungeons of pop! Born in a Stockholm basement some two years ago, rising from the ruins of compromise and time wasted, Juvelen signalled the start of something funky fresh. Finally the record will be set straight. The good name of pop music will be restored, and sexy will once again be…

Tracey Thorn - Out of the Woods

August 23rd, 2008 | Posted by Christopher

Do you remember ‘Everything but the Girl’ ? ‘Step off that train, walking down your street again.  Past your door. You don’t live there anymore.’  Of course, they became known for more, but it’s most memorable for me.  Tracy has been in hiding, so to speak, for two decades.  This is her first solo LP release since going MIA.  I have to say, it’s a masterpiece, screaming 80s new wave, smooth folk, and juicy electro-soul.

The mix between slow paced songs and those that have sexy beats is well thought out… Read more »
