Ghostwood - Red Version
Every style of music has its predecessors. Whether they directly link to today’s music or just paved the way, there’s always a connection. 808 state circa 1989-92 produced some great tracks that had a big impact on the British electronic music scene and pioneered the acid house movement of the time. This track comes off their 1990 album ‘Utd. State 90’, and various remixes have been played by Justice in their recent sets (see the PinkPonyParty DJ set). The second track is another heavily Justice and SebastiAn played track, by a Belgium group called Outlander released 1992. If you went to their sideshows you may have heard it before. Have a listen.

The lovely people at Modular are giving us a chance to see the mighty Cut Copy light up the stage just in time before we set off on our adventure to the mighty Daft Punk gig. I already got my ticket to this gig (right in the middle of exam time - heh, that won’t stop me!) With Knightlife and Damn Arms supporting, what more could you ask for?
Actually there is something more I could ask for, and thats the Cut Copy album ‘In Ghost Colours’ which is unfortunately due out next Feb. Although, to keep us happy the single from the album, ‘So Haunted’, will be released in the coming weeks. Suss the myspace rip and tell me what you think about the track - I think its a brilliant follow-up from ‘Hearts on Fire’.

If you haven’t heard of Knightlife then what a laugh!; this majestic character’s tunes will be hitting a dancefloor near you in the not-so-distant-future. His signed to Cutters, a label setup by Cut Copy themselves which has had such acts like KIM to Midnight Juggernauts. Grab his 12″ ‘Ambopop/All Systems’ here and check out his new demo - gosh!

Finally, this blog has made the transition from the idea womb as a mucous covered blob and formed itself into something a little more recognisable. Nice work pat. Shall we get started then? Obviously these two need no introduction. Everyone by now has at least danced their freakin ass off to tracks such as pogo and burst their eardrums to Jupiter room. Isi and Jens of Digitalism are making the music that’s making half the world dance. If their album Idealism isn’t in your possession or you still haven’t have a listen yet, then your crazy or in a coma. Here’s something a little harder to find to add to the collection, plus a few of Jens’ own solo tracks under the name ‘Jence’.
MP3: Digitalism - Saw You In 2 Pieces
MP3: Digitalism - Jet Set
MP3: Jence - Pogo Galactica
MP3: Jence - Wired
Testing 1-2-3. Over and out.
