London’s own Floating Points adds his lofty/jazz style to Tellier’s epic tune. I just recently discovered Floating Points after hearing his tune “Love Me Like This” on one of Joy Orbison’s mixes. Subtly is where this electronic scene is going and Floating Points and Joy Orbison are right on par with that. Sébastien Tellier – [...]

Jaga Jazzist are an eclectic group of 9 Norwegian musicians that bring forth their own version of electro-jazz-funk. Their latest tune “One-Armed Bandit” showcases how nimble and versatile of musicians and songwriters they are, cramming in multiple movements that the band describes as “Wagner meets Fela Kuti.” Jaga Jazzist – One-Armed Bandit (Radio Edit)Checkout the [...]

The metal maven Mixhell takes a stab at the Dewaele Brothers classic tune “Theme from Discoteque” a track they crafted under the moniker, Samantha Fu. Mixhell turns it into a very disco-rock sound track, almost sounds like a Soulwax Nite Version of the original. Lookout for Mixhell this December as he joins the Soulwaxmas tour. [...]

Photo by Kirsty Mitchell In Flagranti turns this already strange tune into a weird italo/epic 80s track especially when that gnarly guitar part kicks in, reminds me of ZZ Top. Fantastic track.Crystal Fighters – I Love London (In Flagranti Remix)

I love this dark House/Italo revival that Azari & III and Pink Stallone are leading. Pink Stallone enlists Joey Washington to add an authentic touch of House to their track “Hydroplanes” with its creeping sequenced bassline. Word on the street is that there is a Vietcong Disco x Pink Stallone coming soon, so be on [...]

Graphic by Doin MusicMySpace is slowly redeeming themselves with these fantastic live sessions. They capture Miike Snow’s epic extended live sound. “Silvia” is a standout live track that really showcases how moving and epic of a band they are. This might be the album of the year for me – too much good music [...]

Crystal is a very unlike addition to the Hooligan Disco sounds of Institubes records but they are a Japanese quartet that does a great job making a nod to the early electronic greats, Kraftwerk, Yellow Magic Orchestra, Jean Michel-Jarre, Human League, to name a few. There is something very quirky yet sincere about their brand [...]

Ellie Goulding has been making her rounds on the blogosphere and I am finally getting around to give her some Asian Dan love. I am a big fan of her vulnerable/innocent vocal style paired with some very familiar indie/electro pop beats. I feel she is doing a good job following in the steps of her [...]

2009 is quickly coming to a close and I have been thinking lately a lot about how many great albums came out this year, from Miike Snow, Grizzly Bear, Phoenix, and Tiga. But I think Bibio’s. “Ambivalence Avenue” is making its way up to the number 1 spot for me. I cannot get enough of [...]

I remember hearing this tune as an opener for one of Erol Alkan’s Parklife sets that I downloaded a few weeks ago and I was blown away. I then heard it again on Busy P’s Essential mix and found out who this fantastic producer from Hamburg is. Boris Dlugosch has been around for quite a [...]

Fred Falke strikes back – this time using his magic French touch on LA’s Music Go Music, that 70s ABBA/Olivia Newton John, disco band signed to Secretly Canadian. Interesting use of that 8-bit sounding synth. Check out what Kama Maza from Music go Music has to say about Fred’s remix:“Fred’s version leans more towards those [...]

Warm, thoughtful, introspective and soulful electronic that comes from the UK seems like an oxymoron but acts like Bibio, Bullion and Lone are doing it quite well. Lone (Werk Discs Records) from Nottingham, United Kingdom produces warm/organic sounding beats that evoke images of lovely autumn days. His synth sounds swirl and swarm you in a [...]

You all know and have seen ROB on TV, on every late night show this summer laying it down on the keys/synths for this little known French Pop Band, Phoenix. This track is the 4th installation in his 12 month long release of musical pieces through Institubes Records. Mr. Tellier joins ROB on this latest [...]

Once again I will state that I love Joy Orbison and what he is doing for electronic music. It is a refreshing sound that is cleansing our burnt out/bloghaus banger palette. There is a a hint of the crazy dubstep everyone is raving about but in a very tasteful way. My favorite element of Joy [...]

VHS Head is a mysterious Blackpool, UK native producer signed to Skam Records.Rumors are flying around that VHS Head is a secret moniker of the amazing Jackson & His Computer Band. I had the pleasure of checking out Jackson’s DJ set as he opened for Justice this last week in NYC at Webster Hall. Not [...]
