Cassius - Nike mix

The classic French house duo Cassius just finished their “Cassius Play” mix for Nike+ (you might remember the much talked about LCD Soundsystem “45:33″ mix in the same series, the idea is to make a continous track that would suit runners ie music fitting for a 7 min warm up, 30 min run and 7 […]

Jonas Game - Fish And Shark

This is the new Jonas Game single “Fish And Shark” that’s released by Sincerely Yours today. Heartfelt pop music the way it’s done in Sweden. Here’s the story:
“I rented a string quartet and professional musicians, went into a fancy studio contrary to my ideals. Somehow lost myself along the way, sort of like Fleetwood […]

Tepr + Kid Sister

So i guess big bad music labels DO have emotions and hearts under those stone cold DCMA notices (well, i didnt actually get a notice). Apparently they felt bad about making us take down TEPR's remix of Santogold, but cleared his remix of Kid Sister for us to post. So hope this will satiate until we can bring back Miss Santi…

 Kid Sister - Pro Nails (TEPR rmx)

Feel This

I am feeling way smoothed out on the R & B tip today. Silk sheets, roses, chocolate all that shit. Drink these tracks in like a fine wine.

Phoenix - If It’s Not With You

Junior Boys - High Come Down

Taylor Savvy - Trying To Find My Baby

Wallpaper - TXT ME

Jimi Tenor - Can’t Stay With You Baby

HEALTH

Argument: blogs are killing albums. We cherry pick the best songs for you to download bypassing the need to buy the album. We could debate that argument and whether we’d like to admit it or not, there is some truth to it. But the bigger truth is blogs are not killing albums any more than […]

Mystery Jets - Plimsouls remix

It’s been a few weeks since Bristolian electro/house producer Plimsouls graced the pages of Discobelle. But now he’s back with a remix of the Mystery Jets single “Two Doors Down”.

MAGIC JOHNSON! ANOTHER REASON YOU WISH YOU LIVED IN LA.

LOS ANGELES, the never-ending land of hate and pleasure, seems to be in the midst of a musical renaissance pumping out dance and punk bands alike that are taking the world by storm.

OL FACTORY RECORDS has been one of the labels taking the lead from the more punk side of things, giving a home to many of the bands that are mastering their craft in the hallowed halls that is THE SMELL. The boy/girl duo, MAGIC JOHNSON, is their latest offering (along with LA IS WAX PAPER)and like their local peers before them, MIKA MIKO, ABE VIGODA, IMA GYMNIST, UNDERGROUND RAILROAD TO CANDYLAND, etc, they keep up with the snotty-ness while displaying their ability to write a good pop hook to boot.

Check out a couple tracks from their debut 7" 'Telenovelas' out now:

MAGIC JOHNSON - LA CASA

MAGIC JOHNSON - PA SU MECHA

Le CASTLE VANIA VS. GRUM

hey Just wanted to share my latest work with you guys! its a remix of my homie Grum's song Go Back. if you like it be sure to stop by my Myspace page and add it to your profile! ;p   

 

 

Grum - Go Back (Le Castle Vania Remix)

 

 

also here's a little video of this song in action at the Last Ever Check Yo!

METERHEAD: LA MYSTERY

There's a new mystery rising out of the LOS ANGELES dance scene. The question is, who is METERHEAD?

These tracks popped up in my inbox and may or may not be from someone we all know and love, but my opinion is, as a debut, not too shabby. Maybe within the tracks you will find some cues as to who the mystery man or men are. Here's one original and a remix of the already classic 'Disco Sirens' by MIDFIELD GENERAL. Until then, check them out and let the dance floor decide.

METERHEAD - PAUSE

MIDFIELD GENERAL - DISCO SIRENS (METERHEAD REMIX)

I LOVE THE MAE SHI!

I love THE MAE SHI

…but it took me a while to get there. A few months ago i picked up THE MAE SHI's new album and totally fell in love with it. It's been on my play list ever since.

What's funny about that is that this band has been right under my nose for years now! Not only do they hail from LOS ANGELES, but JEFF, who plays in the band, was my roommate for 2 years! I'd seen them play a few times back then, but the last few years since I've been focusing more on IHEARTCOMIX stuff I admittedly don't get to go out as much as I used to. All the while these dudes self produced and released (until Moshi Moshi picked them up) a fucking brilliant record!

The lead single is called 'Run To Your Grave' and is absolute goodness in more ways than i want to describe. You really just need to check it out for yourself:

THE MAE SHI - RUN TO YOUR GRAVE

They even self-produced and directed the video for it which is equally impressive. Make sure to run out and get the album for yourself 'The Mae Shi Mixtape'.

The Black Ghosts

This week’s Black Ghosts video premier is of “Until It Comes Again” and is directed by Barcelona’s Santiago Garrido Rua:
The Black Ghosts - “Until It Comes Again”
Week 4 of the The Black Ghosts/CULT-GEIST video project. The Black Ghosts had a video commissioned for each song from their debut album due for release July 8th on […]
