Heart Attack

Tara Darby shoots for Undercurrent Magazine.

Everyone loves lairy tribal house from the Netherlands:

Silvio Ecomo & Chuckie - Moombah (Afrojack Remix)

So smooth it calmed me down after I had a shitting heart attack at new Minimow like my computer did that time I opened up Turbo Recordings AND Cocoon on the same web browser:
Giorgio Gigli Podcast for Turbo

Thunderstorm

Beautiful songs for the weather outside.

Bicycle- on Memory Tapes' blog
&

Battlehymn for Children (Tensnake Dub Remix)- The Faint

THE END IS NIGH

'Cause Crookers, Bloody Beetroots and other such dirty foul-mouthed Italians weren't enough. The Pelussje posse promise pathetic attempts at 'remixing' the classics that are Modjo's Lady and Foo Fighters with this emerging popular genre consisting of.. wobble.. electro.. fidget house? NO WAI.
Please, I can't throw up anymore, my stomach is empty and my mouth is dry what do you want from me? More upsetting than that time I watched the AA24/7 video on MDMA and almost worst than Mr Trevor Loveys when he added lazy 'bangra' sounds into boring 'ass' beats = a song titled Chips & Curry.
INGENIUS, LOVEYS. CLAP CLAP.

HORRIBLE NOISES: F. Sonik- Vertigo (Umek Remix)

Trouble Vision

Royal College of Art graduate Gudrun Kloepsch juxtaposes the 'I'm the repressed librarian of the dreams when you wake up in an estuary of your own jizz' & 'irritating posh lady freaking the hell out at a bird/height/prostitute mum issue straight outta Hitchcock' looks w/ awfully practical lace glasses.

Music to dream to:
Memory Cassette- Asleep at a Party

(former members of Hail Social & Weird Tapes, on Acephale)

Music to have fucking nightmares to:

Voodeux- Bones

(Mothership)

Magnus Unnar

Amazing shoot in i-D by do no wrong Magnus Unnar.

Peaches- Lose You (Yuksek & Brodinski Remix) (256)

Pretty heavy shit: Joseph Capriati- Kontrol Room from the Sidechains EP

Guy J- Shaman (Lontano Remix)

Lovely stuff.

Hello, I'm Polymorphic and I don't understand SET PROGRESSION: Technomusic Tour podcast

Dirtybird

Romanian producer ICS - Emil and Espagnol on Dirtybird.

Some praise for the record from Riva wonky Starr et al:

"That’s how I like it right now, nice and simple! Thanx rs."

True dat. Anyone noticed he's gone mildly less retarded/i.e rave re: Renaissance Man remix?

I mean, remember House Music? O LOL.

P.s check out ICS' remix for The Martin Brothers' Dum.

And as heard in some live set mixed perfectly pre-Popof's Faces'uch: Emerson Todd- Rumplestiltskin

ONE TIME WITH THE FOGHORN

TINGS:

Renaissance Man- Dubbo.
Absolute legend. This is like when they did that bootcut of DJ Hell and decided 'fuck airhorns' in their Definition of House Music. It had the largest terrifying foghorn sample.
This is 100x that.Plus the Sandy Bitches teaser.
I've always been a bit MEH about Dolby Anol since that Cowbois fiasco but with 'classics' such as Cancer, Linda and Heather, I'm Dry I decided to give them another chance.
Check out the 'bangin choon' that is Tender Touch and their 'humourous' ad on their 'myspace'.

Zoo Brazil

Poor Zoo Brazil. Remixed his own song and made it worse.
Anyway the original's pretty buff: Gainer
Eerie vocals, pretty good techno. And everyone loved Circle Jerks?

Down

Hal Sear takes hauntingly depressing colour saturated photos.

Popof - High & Down

DJ T. - Dis (Solomun Remix):

Google this percussion heavy house gem out on Get Physical & you may find yourself at 'SATANICPORNOCULTSHOP', but the link above you should keep your dignity intact. Btw the Zombielicious remix samples have been available for a bit now inc the highly anticipated Proxy remix of Shottieville (unfortunately so-so), plus them Irish blokes Arveene & Misk, Shadow Dancer, Milano and Hey Today.

There's Nothing Quite Like Jello For Energy

Everyone remembers these Gimme Vigor/Wil Lin tank tops right?
I LOST MINE. Btw this guy's like what, 20?: Laquan Smith

Here's some horrible music:
Magistrates- Heartbreak
Classixx- Cold Act Ill (Radio Edit)
Housemeister- Beef Jerky

And some really nice music:
Guy J- Lamur (Henry Saiz Remix) (The original is better but I'd like to presume you've already heard it.)

Gucci's Flora

I have to like this solely for a perfume in my name-
Chris 'Aphex Twin video' Cunningham directing the new Gucci advert for the Flora perfume. What a horribly inbred accent.
http://dazeddigital.com/Fashion/article/2978/1/Chris_Cunningham_Feels_Love_for_Guccis_Flora_

And that 70's-esque Gucci by Gucci ad was LYNCH?
Awesome.

L.A.

Ooh, Permanent Vacation S/S '09

P.s So Cobrasnake directs a video. Sorry, but has anyone realised the 'hot girl' looks a *bit* like she suffers Downs? FO.

Oh. He hangs out with Steve Aoki.
That explains it.

Old but, can't believe I haven't put up any Oliver Huntemann & Dubfire: Dios (Jon Gaiser's Atheists Anonymous Remix)
(Less dark / less epic, rising 'toilet bowl' Dios)

Please Fuck Off Psuedo-Fidget Wonk 'DJ's

"People ARE still playing fidget."

REALLY?



Jesse Rose et al pioneering post-fidget/posh wonk on Dubsided. Let's get a move on guys.

LOUIS FUTON

Bethnal Green. Courtesy of: stalking Matt Walsh's twitter.

Slam - Hot Knives

Lovely rising bass- like a techno Motor, if SebastiAn had a penchant for arpeggiated tinkly bits

Cari Lekebusch - Shaded (Compuphonic & Kolombo Remix)

'Cause everyone loves Cari (sorry Shaman Remix 1, totally > original & possibly 2) Lekebusch and Kolombo of SNIFF fame

Air France - Beach Party

Who The Fuck Are You?

"The Bloody Beetroots".

Relentless after playing his remixes of I Love To Move in Here, Homezone, & What You Need, Proxy at last night's Bugged Out in the Scrutton St warehouse (complete w/ mid-less echoing soundsystem, populated by a mix of motionless Ipso Facto women, Nathan Barley men, and hardcore Turbo nerds totalling...3) went on to drop WHO ARE YOU (Bloody Beetroots Remix). Playing an hour of his own material as the crowd would have wanted it, Matt Walsh must've been depressed to follow him.

Loveable Tiga was dressed down at his own launch party sans gloves/sunglasses/possibly shoes, with a so-so somewhat predictable set (you know, RIVERSIDE, MOTHERFUCKER aka the post-Big Money Comin'?, many a Shoes remix and *cough* Washing Up) plus bewildering 90's rave track. Whilst out of nowhere behind the Turbo crew, Busy P appears quietly grinning, as he IS Jesus (of the scene).

... Well worth being covered in Shoreditch cretin, the sweat of the worringly numerous hefty men in LOVE with Tiga & more bruises than during sex, as we agree this was the necessary time to see Proxy live, especially as the epic crowd-engaging "everybody get low!" shenanigans solemnly signalled the final demise of the track of 2008, Raven... Ahh closure.

After keeping my boyfriend up at 6.30am post-rave by asking on loop 'who's mohan das, who's mohan das, who's mohan das?' = here's Mohan Das - Oh Yes.

RIP YSL

Oh how I love my new RIP YSL bag:

P.s Succumbing to the evils of Sven Vath via a track called Trashbin Dance w/ Roman Fluegel, some 'groovy' DJ Koze - The Spitzer Group, aaand Marco Carola - Ninety.

Style of Eye

Sunday at Fabric heralded hectic dancing to Trailer Trash room spinning mostly Dekker remixes and Tiga's new shit.
Style of Eye did his Girls into his VV Brown- Leave Remix which meant the WORST POSSIBLE TIME for someone to talk to me-
EXCUSE me, Belgian man trying to put his penis on me from behind on the dancefloor, you are NOT from 'MTV' and I am TRYING to dance to some motherfucking tech house.
Needless to say, he got punched in the face by flailing asian girl.
Too bad Ona wasn't playing.

Here's a mix by the Swede himself:
We Are Blah Blah Blah's EP12 mixed by Style of Eye

Tracklist here

ARMAGEDDON EDIT

For a song called Leisure.
How quaint:
Dimitry Fyodorov - Leisure (Armageddon Edit)

And I don't care what anyone says about the Bloody Beetroots Remix of Adam Sky ft. Zoo Brazil's Circle Jerks.
Dumbed down version it may be, and Dim Mak twats indeed.. but I LIKE IT.
Beetroots' cliche sound of them rubbing each other's testicles all over the track and all.

In recent podcast #9 Tiga claimed Circle Jerk was "a horrible name, we didn't have anything to do with that"..
Alternatives: - Crap Circles?
- Circles Are a Bit Shit?
- Triangles are Trendy Right Now Because of Kate Moross Etc But Zelda Was Doing That Shit TIME Ago?

I'm disappointed those Shoes aren't Louboutin.

Sweet Jesus.
Video for Shoes.
It's like wandering into the Gareth Pugh A/W '06 show if it was the '80s and psylocobin was more readily available.

EXPECT: Tiga's fucking weird shit and I think that's Josh Hartnett on the drums.

Orca Mallorca

Spontaneous purchase of a child's paddling pool and £1.97 BBQ requires summer tunes:
#1:
Orca (Ian Pooley's Orca Mallorca Remix) by plinky plonky Tonka.
(Not much like the original. Nice one Mr Pooley.)

I have phases where I suddenly do a bit of a full-on handjive to his techy stuff like Freeze and Website but, funny how Tonka used to be so gay.
