I’ve just finished watching Karim’s latest video for the chilling “Triangle Walks,” that just premiered over at stereogum, at the end of which is hard for anyone not visually impaired not to sit back for a few good seconds and gasp “WOW!” The video just hits you from the very few frames - beautifully dark-blue lights, [...]

“Kids, don’t do drugs” might serve as a good motto for MGMT’s latest video for their incredible single “Kids.” The video’s story follows around a toddler (most likely on acid. lol) who seems to see monsters everywhere he walks around, even in people. Guess there’s a dormant monster within every of us, even in your [...]

Karin Andersson’s debut self-titled record, released under her Fever Ray moniker, is one of the loveliest of the year, packed with a vibe of serenity and bliss. It’s incredible how Karin channeled her creativity and talent on the album, proving she will never really be able to stay away from music. Let’s just hope she [...]

I wasn’t left very much impressed by Beastie Boys‘ last album, the all instrumental The Mix-up. Sure, it had some really nice beats, on which you could easily groove to, but at the same time it kinda felt a bit repetitive. My more or less disappointment was caused, however, by the sentiment of loathing for [...]

OK, this is one weird ass music video, but weird has always kinda been a good word to characterize Royksopp’s work, be it visual or musical. Basically, it’s all about a hilarious soap opera between the talented Swede Robyn and a red tin headed robot. Robyn is left alone in her bead, watching MTV (Ouch!) [...]

The latest remix from The Golden Filer of Empire of The Sun’s “We Are The People” is proof yet again of the duo’s remarkable mixing skills, as they’ve managed to turn the original 180 degrees, providing us with a stunning electro anthem. Contemporary percussion mixed in with old school ’80s drum beats and some awesome [...]

Last night Animal Collective played a set in D.C.’s 9:30 club, where they simply rocked the sold out crowd. On top of that, fans had the chance to hear in first audition a new AC song, going by the working title of “Bleed.” One can plainly see it’s still a very raw version, but even [...]

1901 is maybe the most catchiest songs of the year. It’s fun, upbeat and has a really steady flow of rhythm - can’t go wrong, right? Anyway, we’ve got two awesome remixes for you today of Phoenix’s single. First, the one by The Tremulance in which 1901’s upbeat chorus is taken to the max with [...]

Justice’s latest mix of Lenny Kravitz’s late 80’s debut single, “Let Love Rule”, is packed with a lot of groove, sex and funky beats, as well as the duo’s signature sound, making it quite a interesting rehash. It provides some definitely good practice for two as well, seeing how they’re due to hit the studio [...]

80’s old school synth pop, mixed in with contemporary beats and CSS-like anthem chants in the chorus - that’s how Clubfeet’s latest single Teenage Suicide, in a nutshell, sounds like. Clubfeet is an Aussie electro outfit that once again enforces the already solid dance music scene in the land down under. Yes, quality dance music is [...]
