MP3 blog 2011/06/23

blgo 2011/06/23 - wait what?  hmmmm...

Did we not do one of these already this week?  Well, actually, yes.  But I had a big backlog of amazing new stuff, so now you'll need to sprint to catch up.  It's for the best.

So does anyone still even get these on facebook now that I can't send messages?  Has readership plummeted?  Let me know if yr still around...

Oh and if you are in Ottawa for July 8th, I'm throwing a big 2-part event.  Art show from 8-11, dance party 11-2.  Get the details here, and please share everywhere:

Balam Acab - Oh, Why:  New release is WANDER / WONDER and wow they've really taken the epic synth ballad to heart.

Cat People - Sorry:  Reminds me a bit of Whale mixed with Vampire Weekend, which is not a bad place to be.  New album is called Love Battle.

Engineers - What It's Worth (Helios Remix):  I am a big Helios fan, and it's about time they got more remixes out!   They are a bit like Ulrich Schnauss, but with less of a heavy foot on the fuzz pedal.

Friendly Fires - Blue Cassette
Friendly Fires - Live Those Days Tonight (Tim Green Remix):  Both from the new LP Pala, this is energetic synth pop at its best.

Geotic - Union:  Delicate idm resting on a basic plodding synth beat!

Germany Germany - Dance
Germany Germany - Natural ft Donne:  Last seen back in blog20110527, here are two more amazing Germany Germany tracks from the new album Adventures.

GS Boyz - Stanky Legg (Lunice Remix):  OK OK OK, how could I NOT???  FUCKING STANKY LEGG.

Headless Horseman - 1chrd (Blackbird Blackbird Remix):  With this and the Balam Acab, the worlds of dream pop and witch house just got closer.

jj - Ice
jj - No One Can Touch Us Tonight:  New album coming called No One Can Touch Us Tonight!  Very excited.  After rejuvenating themselves with their Kills mixtape, they are back in top pop form.

Niva - Ghost In My Head:  This track is like the last three songs, all added togther.

Oneohtrix Point Never - Transmat Memories (Hollagramz Spiral Edit):  Yeah totally did NOT expect to see OPN get a techhouse rework, but I'm not complaining.  After people remixing David Lynch's song and even Spider Pig, anything's possible.

Purity Ring - Lofticries:  flipside on the dopetastic Ungirthed 7"!  Grotesque beat mutation reveals seduction in the twisted machine.

Ryan Hemsworth - Laboratory Ruins:  chiptune style dramabreaks!

SebastiAn - Embody (DJ Premier 95 Break Remix):  It is great to see both SebastiAn and DJ Premier in top form here.  From the new Embody single.

Swarms - Ur Voice Shakes:  More with the sweet breakbeat smoothness, this time dubsteppy style!

The Antlers - Putting The Dog To Sleep:  OMG YAY MORE ANTLERS!!!

  1. I don't know if I can keep up! - I'm still rocking hard to Chuck D and Edwin van Cleef from a few weeks back - but you're right, it's for the best: sort of like running after the ice cream van. Thanks for being so kind and generous, CPI! x c
