Kavsrave should be selling is beats to huge R’n’B/Pop Stars. Yet another one of his productions “Deluded” is screaming for Justin Timberlake-esque vocals. The huge stabbing synths and growling bassline will fulfill any of your Timbaland cravings. “Delude” is yet another fantastic production by Kavsrave who has already impressed me with his last release, his “Quotes EP” out on Numbers Records. Big choons.
The now solo Aeroplane has reworked Chromeo’s first single “Don’t Turn The Lights On” a straightforward disco dancefloor track. A super slick and sexy tune. Pre-Order “Business Casual” here.
This is a release massive release I am looking forward to on Ed Banger Records out at the end of the month, August 31. The single “Cryptic Motion” is a return to funk for Mr. Squarepusher – sort of his take on a Dam Funk’s boogie sound. Here is a teaser of the B-Side to the release, a remix by the one and only Mr. Oizo. The weirdo motherfunk ship has landed courtesy of Ed Banger Records.
Take a hugely successful buzzband and then have the “it” buzz-artist remix their hit single – should work right? Ah the lovely music industry we live in by any means possible how can we the hype alive?! Well in this case it works as the pop prince Penguin Prison brings down the hyper-active falsetto of Passion Pit into a whispery, Holy Ghost! Yacht House, Disco sounding track. I really enjoy that bite in the bassline.
As the musical genius Gonzales prepares to unleash “Ivory Tower”, his latest venture with the help of the one and only Boys Noize here is his next single “I Am Europe”. A playful “guess-who-am-I” track that lays out all the comical absurdities of Europe. Make sure to check out the music video which is more of a trailer to the epic film that coincides with the album that features Tiga.
Djedjotronic takes on “I am Europe” turning it into a massive “diplomatic techno” track ready to globally dominate any dancefloor.
Looks like there is only one screening of “Ivory Tower” in North America which will be in Brooklyn, so everyone be there for this epic occasion.

The power-rap Brooklyn trio Lionshare has just unleashed their latest mixtape “Shareholders R.E.P.O.R.T. Vol. 1 Part 2: Orphan Acronym” – an absurd mix full of sweaty party jams.
Here are a few words about the mixtape from the trio themselves: “The title – an orphan acronym is one whose letters don’t stand for anything – speaks to LIONSHARE’s playful subversion of hip-hop’s eccentricities and contradictions. The sound follows the group as they flirt shamelessly with dubstep and other genres of electronic music, but there’s still a sense that they’ll return to rap and beats at the end of the night, with sheepish grins and flowers. ”

Mayer Hawthorne returns with a cover of an “Otis Leavill” track with the help of Nottz – marking a slight return to Mr. Hawthorne’s hip hop roots. “I Need You” is a lovely LA feeling summer jam, just in time as August arrives and summer slowly winds down.

Van She Tech returns with a series of bootleg banger remixes of some of their fav tunes. First up is CeCe Peniston’s “Finally” mashed up with Daft Punk’s “Aerodynamite” – one of my fav Daft Punk B-sides. An overall super fun Bootleg Banger of an edit. For all of you lucky enough to be in Aussie this weekend, Van She Tech shall be DJing at the Splendour Festival and apparently will be dropping the next Van She single off their upcoming sophomore album.
July 13 marked the day Hey Champ released their sonic baby into the world – “Star”. A synth rock album with an emphasis on the rock. All the blog favorites are on the album, Cold Dust Girl and Neverest but my personal favorite is the title track “Star”. It is a lofty synth pop song that reminds of Joe Jackson’s “Steppin’ Out” meets ELO and the Buggles. Star feels like a galactic theme song for a Japanese space cowboy. Download and listen below…
