Some news from Spitzer




U met them last year in the blog when they shared with us Avida Dollars and now they are back with a fresh mix of Kylie Minogue´s "In my Arms". I dont like Kylie at all but after some hearing I must say this remix is good enough to make an approach :)
Some heavy and broken synths here, also reminds me to the style Paper Faces (Jaques Lu Cont) used to add to their mixes. must hear!
They ll be releasing this mix soon with the original track and they have been asked to remix two tracks for Sally Shapiro so expect them soon here.


Some info about them below:

« Hidden behind "Spitzer" are two Rock brought-up brothers. Two
brothers who got breast-fed in their earlier years by Axl Rose and
Jimmy Page. After 7 years of faithful and loyal services towards the
Indie music scene, they decided to abandon their mediator and
drumsticks for a new passion. They found themselves utterly seduced by
the synthetic environment and the animal beats of Techno. Musicians,
and now producers, their music became a hit amongst bloggers on the
net. The blogosphere was amazed by the twilight dark ambiance and the
frenetic robotic sound of some of their tracks available on the Web.
Understandably backed up by the whole electro Lyon community, booked
by the Festival des Nuits sonores, they were also called by Kylie
Minogue to create a crazy remix, that is still very secret. Track
after track, Spitzer creates a new map without boundaries nor rules,
frenetic and grandiose techno music set in between Nathan Fake's
grandiloquence and the rhythmic scathing of Trentmoller. Sought by
many labels, Spitzer is already cooking some new remixes and is
working to finalise their first EP, "Roller Coaster". The two brothers
will also start an Australian tour beginning April 2008. The two
Spitzer brothers will road trip from one club to another and get the
dance floor groovin'."


Meet Kjetil Grande !

Straight from Norway, Grande just released his new ep "Uppers, Downers, Screamers & Howlers" and was kind enough to share some of the tracks with us. Expect also the release of his new album really soon.

from his space

"
aahh... you might think im tryin´ to be funny... but I´m really serious this time! My name is Kjetil Grande and I am a Norwegian guitarplayer & "singer". I was 15 when I first picked up my moms Bjarton guitar and her Lillebjørn Nilsens Guitarbook, and skipped the first pages of the book, cause I didn´t want to learn no chords. I tell ya, there wasn´t too many cool licks in Lillebjørn Nilsens Guitarbook, but as soon as I stopped doin´ my homework I figured out how to play.

Since then I´ve played with Norwegian blues/r&b band "Good Time Charlie", a bunch of old American bluesmen, a bunch of garage bands, and a bunch of norwegian rock/pop artists.....

These days I´m releasing my debut album, and I´m proud to announce that "Uppers, Downers, Screamers & Howlers", is out now!

Todd Nickolas remixes HEARTSREVOLUTION



One of my favourite tracks of last year by far, the first remix i know of and I must say im impressed. This new mix is more "playable" in djiing terms and respects the great vocals from the original. I will play it 100% sure this summer (here).

Heres some additional info from Todd Nickolas from his space. theres also more remixes and tracks to listen and download.

Todd's career in music and sound production began at the age of 15, with an analog synthesizer, a drum machine and a four-track cassette recorder. Armed with a self-taught knowledge of how to play and program the equipment, tapes of unique electronic body music began to pile up. In 1990 Todd and long-time friend and musical collaborator Dom Paterson did their first studio session as ADSR. They realized quickly that they could just as easily achieve the quality of studio recordings themselves, without having to worry about rushing through expensive studio time. The pair began to purchase more analog keyboards, digital samplers, drum machines, effects processors and mixers. Out of this mess of wires, circuits and patch cords Floorshaker Productions was born in Ottawa, Canada. The next four years saw the release of two albums, numerous 12 inch singles and placement on several German compilation CDs alongside the likes of Moby, The Prodigy, Alec Empire and CJ Bolland. Critical praise drew comparisons of ADSR to luminaries such as Orbital and Leftfield. During this time Todd also maintained an extensive nightclub, rave and radio DJing schedule, making regular trips to Europe to unearth the developing sounds of techno, trance, trip hop and drum and bass not readily available back in Canada, and expose them to a hungry audience. In addition, he completed a degree in Communications from the University of Ottawa. Needing a change of scenery, Todd moved to San Francisco in 1995. Following a busy stint of live performances of new solo material, he took the position of head music buyer with Pulse Soniq Distribution. For the next 3 years the demands of work and DJing temporarily put production on the backburner. However, it was during this time that a notable placement alongside Cocteau Twins' Robin Guthrie and John McEntire of Tortoise was acquired as Todd was featured on Moonshake's (Creation Records, Too Pure, C/Z Records) collection of remixes from their "Dirty and Divine" album. 1998 and a return to Ottawa, Canada saw the founding of Phonics Distribution by Todd and childhood friend Linus Booth (aka DJ Booth / Jokers of the Scene). It was not just through Phonics that a portal to the worlds of nu-jazz, minimal techno and IDM (intelligent dance music) was opened to a large North American client base. Shanghai Beats was also formed as a weekly experience of sound, food, drink and conversation guided by the Phonics resident DJs, receiving widespread press acclaim from opening night. The immensely popular evening drew capacity crowds each and every week. This period also saw the musical reunion of Todd and ADSR partner Dom, as Todd remixed the track Backslide for the Soma Sonic "Future" album on Sonic Images USA/Subsonic Recordings. A move back to the West Coast occurred in 2001 as Todd accepted a position with comedian Tom Green's Los Angeles based Internet division, TomGreen.com. Primarily handling the daily audio and video editing of content for the site, he was commissioned to produce original music and sound designs for the official website of Tom's film "Freddy Got Fingered", as well as for other websites, web design education facilities and television pitches. Todd has also completed work for Quicksilver Software, projects with The Aura Group, and Suzuki Automobiles. Original music production, DJing, sound design, consulting and remixing continues under the names Civil Discobedience, Onaisa, ADSR and his own name, Todd Nickolas.

The Teenagers - Reality Check

From Insound

Consisting of three lovely French 20-somethings, lead singer Quentin Delafon, guitarist / synth man Dorian Dumont and bassist Michael Szpiner, The Teenagers are a band that could have only come from Paris. Their sound is built around a backbone of golden pop melodies, with a penchant for leftfield visioning - all enveloped in a sardonic wit and lingering Sofia Coppola soft focus. While the trio left their teenage years a few years ago, adolescence is a concept that cuts to the core of the group. They're in love with the idea of the dreamy teen, inspired by sunset walks through the park, clogging up shopping malls for no good reason, holding hands, and stolen kisses in the cinema.

from Yellowstereo

The Teenagers love to have a good time. For those who didn’t know, these guys have been busy recording their debut LP from Merok Records in the UK, and Beggars/XL in the US. The title of their debut is called “Reality Check”, and it is due out for digital download on January 15th, a mere four days from now. The hard copy isn’t set to be out until March 18th in the US (March 17th in the UK).

BUT… if you hurry over to their Myspace page anytime in the next 4 days, you are able to listen to the album in its entirety UNTIL January the 14th. See Below for the link.

Over the last year these guys jumped on the scene with their raunchy and vulgar “Homecoming”, and most recently with “Starlett Johannson”, along with some pretty rocking remixes that have been hopefully rocking a indie-dance floor near you (I know I spin them where I play).

The album is twelve tracks long, half of which I had yet to hear before today (I had heard some of the demos for other tracks that have been floating around and on their myspace page, and hadn’t heard the mastered versions).

Listening to the album all the way through, its obvious to hear the new-wave and 80’s synth pop influence on these guys’ sound. Most tracks on the album have pretty catchy refrains and get stuck in your head. A number of them also make you want to move your feet and Dance Dance Dance Dance.

As an overall album, I feel like it is split into halves (for the most part) with most of the upbeat tracks in the first half. This includes the singles currently released (Homecoming and Starlett Johannson), and the 3rd single titled “Love No” (Out 3/10/08). On the second half of the album, the dancy vibe changes into more of a storytelling mode, something The Teenagers do a pretty good job at (in a humorous way of course, just as a Teenager should do!)

Listen for yourself, and preorder the album RIGHT HERE! Below is the tracklist. Personal favorites for me after the first few run throughs are “Streets of Paris” (totally new to me), and “Feeling Better” (Heard demo prior to album version).

The Teenagers - Reality Check
01. Homecoming
02. Love No
03. Feeling Better
04. Starlett Johannson
05. Streets of Paris
06. Make It Happen
07. Wheel Of Fortune
08. Fuck Nicole
09. French Kiss
10. Sunset Beach
11. III
12. The End of the Road

Meet Plimsouls ! ! !



Just 19 years old, Plimsouls has been featured on many of the leading electro blogs, including Fluokids, Palms Out Sounds, Slutty Fringe and Electric Zoo, and has been tipped by many to have good things coming in 2008 (Pretty Much Amazing went as far as to say he was the 2nd best artist you've never heard of - high praise indeed!).

Ignoring the Ed Banger/Institubes distorted electro noise that is followed by so many, Plimsouls creates a genuinely unique sound that has begun to attract the ear of a number of labels and has been approached to remix some major artists in the new year.

If you like Crookers, Switch, Solid Groove or just like those heavy beats and stabby synths then this is for you. Anyways I dont like any of the above but found something new and fresh about Plimsouls, it your call thou but u should listen to it right now!
Here two tracks for yourlistening pleasure I personally liked a lot 3000. U choose-

Plimsouls - 3000

Plimsouls - You don´t look so good

OMG ! its OH SNAP!!



From Maryland USA my new friend Oh Snap!! is letting us have a listen to his new production "im too fat to be a hipster" featured in his upcoming EP called NEW SNAP!! CITY due out in February. The Vocals are great and the simplicity of the arregements show that sometimes is easiear to keep that way and still make a killer track out of it. Also included for your listeninig pleasure a cover from Colbie Colliat´s "Bubbly".

Later on expect some heavy remixin from keem all hippies and the video clip with "some hilarious concept"...

An new artist to pay attention in the future.
