WAVES AT NIGHT
W—E—P

Having explored a number of directions in their formative stages, World’s End Press (Melbourne) have somehow found their feet moving about in a post-millennium adaptation of classic Disco and House Music. Their loyal following of dancers is testament to an extravagant and exciting live show. Having spent the latter part of last year recording their [...]

HEALTH – Die Slow (Tobacco Remix)
Brutal video for a remix of a brutal track. I caught HEALTH last week here in Melbourne and it was amazing, if a little short. This remix comes courtesy of the head of the awesome 70’s-throwback mellowtron drenched band, Black Moth Super Rainbow.

FAVICON

NYC’s Jacques Renault (one half of Runaway) can do no wrong at the moment. Every mix/track he has dropped in the last few years hasnt seemed to tire in my ears yet. Favicon is his new release on Canyon’s own label, ‘Hole In The Sky Recordings’, and its four tracks of pure disco edit gold. [...]

Slo Mo

Bryce Isbell (aka FUR) resides in Denton, Texas, which is why I can see the idea of collaborating with Alan Palomo of Neon Indian and VEGA fame on his new release ‘Witches’. I was going to post that track, but decided this one was actually better. The whole album floats around Chill Wave/Glo-Fi territory [...]

%Z!%

With each dose of disco, I need a dose of something slightly darker to balance it out. So along comes the punk/darkwave.
Malaria! were an all female German darkwave band, existing primarily around the early to mid 80’s. Probably their best known track, ‘Kaltes Klares Wasser’ (or Cold Clear Water), has been featured on heaps of [...]

PRINS THOMAS

[ February 21, 2010; 3:00 pm; ]

Nordic producer/DJ/father/et al. Prins Thomas (aka. Thomas Moen Hermansen) has finally graced us with his presence and is set to play some killer gigs this weekend. Known for his trademark “cosmic disco” sound, Thomas has been in the music industry for a very long time, and currently owns and manages two labels Full Pupp and [...]

DBO

‘People’s Potential Family Album’ is a wicked compilation collecting together the best of the Peoples Potential Unlimited catalogue so far. All of the tracks on the album were previously only available on 12″ or 7″ vinyl releases and this is the first time that these obscure 70’s & 80’s soul, funk & disco gems have [...]

BLACK VAN

Black Van is Kris Menace and KoweSix (1/2 of Moonbootica). One could say this is one little exciting side-project, as the boys are now bringing out their first release “Yearning” on DFA (avail. 20th of Feb).The release comes backed with a Emperor Machine remix of the titled track. “Yearning” is quite nice, still growing on [...]

MOSQUITOES

Brought to my attention by Canyon’s latest BIS mix, Australia’s own DFA/Modular signing, The Canyons, have remixed Tame Impala yet again.
MP3: Tame Impala – 41 Mosquitoes Flying in Formation (Canyons 41 Mojitos Poolside Dub) (requested to be removed)
Still on the topic of Modular, one of their latest signings, Adelaide three-piece disco-outfit The Swiss, have just [...]
