Don't Fear the Holy Ghost



Holy Ghost! did a pretty cool remix of the new Van She cover of Blue Oyster Cult's Don't Fear the Reaper. Unlike the original, which has a lot of layered synth sounds, the Holy Ghost version is pretty minimal. This is what Alex from Holy Ghost had to say about it on Myspace.
While we were on tour last spring we got asked to do a remix of Van She's cover of Blue Oyster Cult's "Don't Fear The Reaper." (A remix of a cover, how post-modern.) The deadline was really tight though, so the only way we could do it is if we rented a studio in Paris and worked there for the 5 days we had off. Luckily, we found a place we could work on such short notice.

We didn't have ANY of our usual gear with us (let alone our hard drive!), so we built this thing on foreign equipment: old ludwig kit, roland jupiter 6, fender bass, roland sbf 325 stereo flanger, percussion, old upright piano, and of course, a space echo.

In the end it worked out....I think.

Happy Holidays Y'all,

Alex

Pretty cool I think!

The D.A.



Recently, I was fortunate enough to see a show by The D.A. From Elpaso Texas. They're a five part band that includes keys, bass, guitar, drums, and most notably a trumpet player that uses all sorts of weird effects. They've got a great sound, and great lyrics that give the sonic landscapes they create some substance. They just got done with a midwest tour. They recorded their newest E.P. at a little place called the Sonic Ranch. When I say little Im joking, because it's probably the largest recording complex in the United States. The lucky bastards were able to record on the same Neve console that Motown records and later, Madonna used. Check out their E.P! It's a pretty awesome Post Punk/Dance Rock record, and I haven't stopped listening to it. They have been gracious enough to post the entire E.P. for our readers to download!
Apologies to Cesar for taking so long to get this review up!

New AC Slater!!



AC Slater samples an infamous Henry Rollins monologue making fun of electronic music that you can watch here, and turns it in to a heavy bass track that will crush the dancefloor. Pretty hilarious how he throws it back in Henry's face! "Jungle trance hip hop, fuckin shit music" Haha

French Horn Rebellion remix Tigercity

Damaged Good$




Damaged Good$ popped on my radar about a year ago after I heard about their high energy performances. Based in the Dallas area, they have received international recognition for their work in a very short amount of time. Great production and funny pop culture references make their new single "The Great Escape" off their new project $pread Love Not Germs a good listen. As a bonus, we're also throwing in the A1 Bassline remix of "Yo Righteous."

True Psuedo



True Pseudo sent us a bunch of tracks. Out of those, the Designer Drugs and Pilotpriest remixes were by far the best! Unfortunately, they only supplied us with clips of these songs, and you can't DJ with those! The original is pretty good too,and we have an extended version of that for you. Hooray!

Buy the other tracks on Itunes or BeatPort!

Instead of putting in the work to actually write about anything, Im going to just post all the good tracks Ive gotten for the last month or so with a little blurb or something and hope that the tits at the top of the page are enough to distract you from my laziness.

TiTAN is someone we have talked about before, and as I predicted he is delivering great music once again!! His new remix of Airys is a klller on the dance floor. This is my favorite of the tracks Im posting today.
Airys- Vedo in Te(TiTAN remix)*****

This Burns remix of Passion Pit is a sweet Nu Disco reinterpretation that will sit well with the alt-hoes that all seem to want to hear Passion Pit these days.
Passion Pit - The Reeling(Burns remix)

Wolfgang Gartner is really good, and Lights Over LA hasn't dissapointed me yet.
Wolfgang Gartner- Push Rise(Lights Over LA Edit)

New Neon Indian


The nameless duo Neon Indian has released a new track! This stuff definitely falls under the newly coined term "Dream Wave" that's being thrown around a lot lately. I got great feedback on the last tracks I posted from them, and I think this track is even better. This one is a little more polished and upbeat than the tracks from the previous post. It's most likely the single on their soon to be released EP. If we had a ratings system, Id give this one 4.9999 out of 5 robots.

Neon Indian - Deadbeat Summer

Neon Indian



Neon Indian is a mysterious duo composed of a boy from Austin, and a girl from Brooklyn. They will not reveal their identities to the public for the time being, but I can tell you that they have had commercial success in the past. This stuff is more dream pop than dance music. Take a listen I think it's pretty good.

Neon Indian - Should Have Taken Acid With You
Neon Indian - 6669 ( I Dont Know If You Know)
Neon Indian - Seriously, It's Over

We Have Band

Photos by Mikael Gregorsky.

SXSW recap: I made the mistake of going to see way too many Djs this year at SXSW. I heard everyone play pretty much the same set over and over. It was lackluster and disappointing. The live acts I did see were awful. Kanye sucked! His "Good Music" showcase was pretty lame. Seeing Dead Prez's surprise guest performance beforehand was way better, but they got fucked in to being stuck on the DJ stage. The good live acts I did see were Kap10kurt, Codebreaker, Vega, the Twelves, Quaff, and We Have Band. We Have Band was by far the most entertaining. Everything about them is just right. They're a three part group that look as good as they play. I expect that they will blow up in the near future. Here is their cover of The Pet Shop Boys' West End Girls.

Yacht!


YACHT) is playing in Norman this Wednesday!! (3/18) and in Dallas Sunday (3/22)! If you are in town, you MUST go to this show. Yacht is an amazing band, and amazing bands do not pass through Norman very often. Be there, or be sorry.
YACHT was formed in 2002 as Y.A.C.H.T., "Young Americans Challenging High Technology." The current incarnation began gestating in 2008, and at this point bears no resemblance, except biologically, to the previous versions. The YACHT of 2009 is the true form of YACHT.

The 2009 form of YACHT is highly indebted to the Mystery Lights of the Far West Texas desert, where most of the new YACHT album, SEE MYSTERY LIGHTS, was written and recorded.

Strictly speaking, YACHT does "perform music." YACHT provides inspiring Teachings of constantly changing elements: PowerPoint presentations, immersive audio, live audience audits, and shamanistic video environments. The YACHT Performance is expressly designed to provide groups of people with catharsis and purification.

Here are some free tracks from their Website that I thought y'all might enjoy.
Yacht- See a Penny(Pick it Up)
The Blow- Hock it(Yacht Remix)
Architecture in Helsinki- Do the Whirlwind (Yacht Remix)

New Designer Drugs Remix of Avian X



Avian X isn't exactly the greatest thing in the world. Fact of the matter is, if I heard her on MTV or something, I'd turn down the volume a whole lot. She's hot though, so I'd watch her dance. Designer Drugss does an amazing job remixing this track. They are able to take this blah pop track and turn it into a pretty good dance track! I dont know how they do it, but these guys are damn talented. They roll out amazing tracks ever week it seems. Way to go guys!

AVIAN X - Dark circles (Designer Drugs Remix)

Jesse Jamz


Jesse Jamz is one of the better young talents in the Electro Blogosphere currently. He's been Djing since he was only 16! He's played almost every major city, and every major party in the US... and he did all of this while based out of Kentucky. I was fortunate enough to see him at Robotic Wednesdays in OKC where he tore it up. He's getting tons of buzz as we speak, and he's only going to get bigger. Jesse was generous enough to send us three awesome tracks for you all to listen to!

Bach & Gina


I have been wanting to blog about these cool cats Bach & Gina for a while now, and I finally have the chance! These guys should be big right now. Take a listen, and I think you'll agree!
In Barcelona’ is the fresh, brand new sound from 2009 by Bach&Gina. Bach is from the north, Gina is from the South, and both had to wait till 2002 before they could finally meet and eventually collaborate musically together. Though coming from totally different musical backgrounds – the former being a saxophonist interested in dub and jazz, while the latter plays guitar and has rock and pop roots – this unlikely duo was brought together by their common interest for electronica. After a few years of working together, Bach hit the road to Barcelona where he spent a year. It was only when he came back that these two decided to work together on an electro pop album project. These guys seems to take malicious pleasure in challenging musical preconceptions about genres and styles, resulting in what could be described as some kind of ‘harmonic dancefloor’. Fluctuating between electro-rock and new disco beat, their music brings Barcelona straight into your ears, a city famous for its parties where punks, geeks, and bp’s are partying crazy style till dawn. It’s actually hard not to smile and dance when listening to B&G’s sound. With In Barcelona, their debut EP, our two heroes – as they like to be called – aim to drift from private party to private party so as to deliver their catchy sound and share their vision of partying, in which everybody fits.

Bach & Gina- In Barcelona
Bach & Gina- Just Disco
