  1. Bedroom pop producer Tropical Tobacco left home, met friends of Colour Is A Common Mistake, and together they built a new identity they identified as “JUBA” (for the foreigners, “juba” is the Portuguese word to designate “mane”). Both projects stand well with each other, as stated on their present fusion. From it resulted “Bloodvessels” (above, which reminds me I should take a look on vascular notes) and “Lion King” (below, filmed last summer holidays). Neglecting the presence of Makoto Yagyu (PAUS, Riding Pânico, If Lucy Fell) and Fábio Jevelim (Blasfemea, Men Eater, Riding Pânico) in the production of their 1st single would be silly, because their personal touch is unmistakable. Moreover, it was recorded at Blacksheep Studios. Last week they won the contest “+1 Banda Myspace”  (powered by Red Bull Tour Bus). Congratulations guys! Now, good luck and keep going.

  2. It’s not like if I was praising this very peculiar social problem (which I’m obviously not, moral apart) nor its consequences, however Duke Dumont’s passage to Lisbon made me run straightly to “Street Walker” as if I was an addicted or something like that. The sensation of “OMG that bass” I’ve lost in the middle of electro period ages ago and those distorted vocals similar those of someone who is very drunk but insists on beating the rap here and there interpolated with pure synths (the biggest contrast here) are the kick in the ass (read as “right stimulus”) someone needs to exercise properly the pelvic joints. “There’s a woman/ In the street/ Street seller/ Often by the (…) / Uh, wait a minute”.

  3. Already missing PdC? Here’s a new video for Chromatics’ “Looking for love” whose footage is from next year’s Spring-Summer collection of Maison Chanel.

  4. Never mind if it was premiered on Pitchfork, since if it’s beautiful then it must be shared! WIFE is James Kelly’s side project (keep in mind he’s the mentor of Altar of Plagues, Irish black metal band). I could never fully (nor partly) understand why did some men from metal have such a deep relationship with electronic music. I can’t bear metal, and I’ve even given up to try it many years ago. But sometimes we’re touched by things like this and we become no more no less than speechless. I’ve no idea if the forthcoming (and suggestive) “Stoic” EP on left_blank next month will follow this leitmotif (the same we found for example in Shlohmo, Sekuoia, Soosh, IVVVO and several other artists from these days). What I’m pretty sure at the moment is that “Bodies” and its video is a bite of the cherry.

    P.S.: My deepest apologies for not posting a single line in the last weeks, but as I’ve said some months ago, these two last college years would be difficult and time consuming. I’m spending most of my days on coffee, ECG interpretation, and working on my thesis, which is obviously driving me nuts. I haven’t checked my inbox, but I’ll do it, it’s promised! I try to “atone my crime” by posting on the facebook’s page singles’ links I find interesting. Feel free to check them too.

  5. When you put together an impressive video and add to it a precious chillwave song you get exactly what it is on this video. It’s “Corvette Cassette” by Slow Magic.

  6. Like I said before, while we were teenagers, in the mid of the 00’s decade, we witnessed the arising and the subsequent fall down of many pop-electronic projects (some were in fact good ideas that unfortunately didn’t succeed in our country). Today when I accidentally hit Golden Bambi’s video (thank you Anarchicks!) I had the pure sensation of going back to fifteen and rediscovering the genre. Golden Bambi are a duo (XMRR & BlackBambi) about to release their two debut songs on Tunacat. Yet being a rewriting of an old story, they’re not fixed on a specific influence, which makes them ear-catching. More precisely, even though “Little Things” has its own amount of Gaga, they push it up somehow like Queen of Hearts, while “Rabbits” is sexy. Period. Summarily: “This is so wonderful, there’s not a chance to let you go”.

  7. An ultra-sexy tune, because they’re needed too! It’s Daniel Avery’s “Taste”, out now on Phantasy.

  8. François Boulanger is a baker of sounds, and the man behind the projects Ssaliva and Cupp Cave. The last was debuted on British label Ramp Recordings a couple of months ago, and has been played over and over on my portable ever since. The designation “Retina Waves” could be replaced to tympanic waves, with no damage to the music, because far beyond the obvious hearing mechanism allusion, listening to this album is an every time pleasure. It’s made of joyful contagious tiny melodic strains which send shivers down one’s spine. I’m not exaggerating: even the suggestive titles chosen for the different pieces evoke the desire to dance! In some degree, if you liked Magic Panda’s debut or Cuthead’s down-to-earth beats you’ll probably be fascinated with Cupp Cave too, as the album runs and shines on its own fluidity.

  9. Work Drugs’ “The Art of Progress” was a song they said to be scheduled since 1994, after the signing of the Kremlin accords. They had it stored till today, when it was released and put on download. It’s comforting to realize how such a smooth melody hides a message.
