When In Rome

If you are a fan of Phoenix you are going to simply love this track. This remix of Rome by Devendra Banhart (I have no idea who this is but after listening to this track I want to know more) is incredibly beautiful and haunting. The remix went up on the band's blog a few days ago and now I am posting it here.

It is simply amazing.

Black and Blue

I had a great weekend visiting the lovely town of Isla Vista. Friday night was a great party thrown by some promising young DJs. Sick music. But in the meantime some new tunes for you to get your dance on.


Miike Snow has had another one of their tracks remixed. This time by Tiga. This is quite simply some delicious electro. I'll let the track speak for itself.

Thanks to RCRD LBL for hosting this one.

Dance Baby Dance

The boys are back! Chromeo has returned with a new single from their brand new album Night By Night. They haven't released anything new since 2007 so this is some good news for any fan of Chromeo. Follow the link to the website where you can sample the funky 80's guitar that laces this track.

Chromeo- Night by Night

Emil & Friends has another song. You can go along and add it to the list of songs named after girls. It's a funky little jam. Listen for the subtle guitar at the very end of the track. I really want Emil & Friends to release a full album already. If you haven't grabbed the Downed Economy EP do yourself a favor and get it.

I Feel It

DJ Tiësto will be releasing his new studio album Kaleidoscope on October 6th. The new album features vocals from a range of guests including Nelly Furtado, Calvin Harris, and the twins Tegan and Sara.

Speaking of which the track Feel It In My Bones is a sick sick jam. Wait for it around the 2:55 mark. Sends chills down my spine. The twins' vocals match with Tiësto's production seamlessly. Not surprising considering he has remixed the twins before. Definitely check it out. It's awesome. I am very excited to see what this album has in store.

Tiësto will be going on a world tour after the release of this album. I highly recommend checking him out if you can.

I Haven't Vanished

The blog is not dead. I was just pondering my next move. I kept getting my posts deleted by blogspot telling me I was violating copyright law. Anyhow I have decided to try and stay away from posting anything mainstream (as those posts are the ones that vanish) and stick to the smaller names and track samples. So let's see how long this lasts.

So I present the first new sample of music in many a month.



The group is called The Vanish. They hail from the Big Apple. The song is called Heartbeat. The track is pretty catchy with a nice little buildup in the beginning that leads into some buttery lyrics and then the whole thing drops. Cue heart thumping.
