Accompanied by this excellent track by Pixelord, is an equally (if not more) striking visual treat. The video for 'Been Lookin' came out just days before the release of his Supaplex EP. With a combination of smooth and stimulating graphics and samurai movie footage, this video has a strange yet alluring element. Video editing/directing credit goes to Dan Hankinson.

Hallo! Here's... some stuff... for you to listen to... or whatever.
First up tonight is a nice little techno diddy by Hamburg, Germany based Yør. Recently released on the Purple Maze label, this crunchy track features an extremely high level of white noise, giving it an atmospheric dream-like aura.

I'll begin this post the way I seem to begin many summer days. Out of a grogginess; out of a haze: out of the dream world and into the sun of the day. Pyramid is a young artist from France whose hallucinatory brand of hip-hop inflected electronic music conveys that essence perfectly in the form of this remix.

WASHINGTON, DC -- Friday night at the back bar of the Black Cat we will be hosting a fun little shindig alongside our good friends at Blisspop. It's a (very) unofficial after party for Identity Festival, so come through if you've still got dance fever. Or skip the festival altogether and come hang out!

Since his track "Entrance Song" appeared prominently in Maya Jane Coles' Essential Mix last summer, Eats Everything (real name Dan Pearce) has taken the dance music world by storm. In that same year, Pearce saw his very own entry onto the shortlist for Essential Mix of the year, followed by numerous releases on a list of labels which reads much the same as a list of our favorites might:Augustushttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06102645521143293703noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5058145260689076878.post-4379739943559357102012-06-28T23:29:00.000-04:002012-06-28T23:32:08.850-04:00The Nite Life
I've got a couple EPs here for you to check out today. This first one is a release courtesy of Brazilians Digitaria and Funky Fat and all the tracks on this "Masochist" EP sound right at home on the Hot Creations label. Each features presumably the same sexy female vocals, but they are also equally unique. The old soundcloud ep preview seemed lacking so I'm putting the full songs below.

Blissed-out, Baeleric-inspired deepness on this first one. Honestly this track seems like it was made for a sandy dance floor in Miami at sunset or something. Just start listening at the beginning and wait for the drop at the 1:30 mark if you want to see what I mean.

Summer is occurring all around us in full effect in the northern hemisphere right now, and inevitably this golden season affects the forms and styles of the music that end up getting blasted on every speaker within reach of me. Darker, harder edged sounds get replaced by lighter and softer ones, and I find myself absolutely in love with anything and everything that would be perfect echoing Augustushttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06102645521143293703noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5058145260689076878.post-79480550711592031592012-06-24T23:05:00.001-04:002012-06-24T23:05:13.808-04:00Mixtape Sunday: Episode 008
Eats Everything has been a definite favorite of ours around here. He's a fantastic performer and his bouncy bass-driven style of house is infectious. However, this mix he did last week for Resident Advisor is delivered with a mild mannered energy; something his signature sound would not lead you to expect.

German producer B-Ju boldly made his way onto my "to watch" list with his tricked out, slow and sleazy remix of Wool & Cerebral Vortex's "Erotic Dancer". His latest effort, an original production soon to be released on the Squelch & Clap label is in good keeping with the UK funky/hip-hop influenced sound that characterized that remix, a sound and vibe I've grown increasingly fond of PKhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13947989297564251809noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5058145260689076878.post-2063708342692474292012-06-20T14:11:00.002-04:002012-06-20T14:11:20.090-04:00Bwananana
If you're a fan of UK bass music and garage, then Bwana is someone you're gonna wanna follow and keep on your radar. This 21 year old producer hails from Leeds, UK and has been making music for about one year.

It has been exciting to see the Venezuelan duo of Delete and Israel Sunshine tear up the scene this year after seemingly appearing out of nowhere. Getting signed to the notorious Crosstown Rebels label is no small feat and this mix should give you a pretty good idea of how they accomplished that. This mix is about what I would expect from them at this point (amazingness).

I just came across this Mr. Rodriguez, but apparently he’s been in the game for quite some time releasing tunes from deep house to acid and nu disco and dropping remixes for acts like Tiger Stripes and Crazy P. But with aliases like ‘Future Beat Investigators’ and ‘Acid Kings’, just to name a few, how could this man not produce all kinds of great music.

I'm writing this right before we hit the road to drive up to San Francisco for Maceo Plex and Maya Jane Coles tonight (so stoked), so I'll have to keep it brief. These tracks are a taste of the weekend-inspired jams we'll be bumping on the roadtrip, and in honor of tonight let's start off with some Maceo Plex.

SCNTST is probably one of the most fascinating producers flying under the radar out there right now. The 17 year old German prodigy on Boys Noize's label seems to switch up his style on every new remix or original that he puts out, all the while retaining a really high level of production quality.

Gigamesh's new All My Life EP on French fashion house/record label Kitsuné is some serious heat. Ranging from sun-soaked nu disco, to moments of almost-psychedelic dream pop, this release really has it all. Aside from the title track, this B side "Dream On" is probably my favorite one off the EP. Check it out below and be sure to head over to Beatport for the full release.
