LBCK European Tour Video + new track!

LBCK spent the last month touring and tearing it down in Europe in their first ever European Tour. I would say it was a complete success as you can see in their 'European Adventure' tour video that they just released. The video features the electro duo getting to know far away friends in the business, exploring the countries and, of course, rocking shows in Belgium and Germany, as well their "Start" Release Party in France and I Love Electro Festival in Italy.

Sasquatch LINEUP!


107.7 The End out of Seattle just snuck out this poster with the lineup for the 10th Sasquatch Music Festival. Here we go! See you there!

Straight Up


Alright, I'ma get right to business so you can get back to your blazy Sunday. And we are gonna get blazy on this one ladies and gentlemen so sit back, relax, and let's light that fire. Oh, and it's the $uper Bowl as well so grab a drink will ya?
First up, Matthew Kyle. Now I've been meaning to do a post on this guy for a while but for now I'll just let you take a dip in some of my favorites from this SlowJamSexMaster. More from this guy to come, I guarantee it.

If you haven't already heard of B. Bravo, well here we go. Hailing from that place known as The Bay Area and dropping some great beats like none other.
B. Bravo - Swing My Way RMX (Couldn't embed this bad boy, but you'll wanna check this one out.)
B. Bravo - Midnite (My fave and the one that got me obsessed.)

A more funkafied "New Beat" from Toro Y Moi's LP Underneath the Pine. Mark February 22nd on your Calendar people.

Alright, last but certainly not least. Some NW Sol for ya. This kind of honest rap has got a great West-Coast feel to it and gives me confidence/excitement for the future of hip-hop. Look out for the Prince of Seattle in the near future. Let it flow.

That's a wrap, go Packers.

RÜFÜS

For some reason the only music I've been posting as of late has had some ties to Australia. Its a pure coincidence. Or its probably because that country has been pumping out some spectacular music in the past few years: The Presets, Cut Copy, Miami Horror, Midnight Juggernauts, DCUP, GLOVES, Das Moth, Damn Arms... to just name a few. Well, now you can add RÜFÜS to that illustrious list. RÜFÜS are three dudes from Sydney who have that unique Australian sound which I'm currently infatuated with.

Their tunes consist of a lo-fi groove generated by subtle beats, an alluring melody and dreamy vocals. Their vocals has a Presets sound to it especially when it reaches the falsetto like in Paris Collides (my fave). They recently released their first EP of their own label MONEKELEON but they have plans to release a club version of We Left with remixes from Go Go Bizkitt!, Brokeone, Symbolone, Beaumont, Springflower, Monseiur Adi, and Ride the Universe. A solid list of remixers so you know I'll be eagerly awaiting that release. Hopefully they'll release an album soon because I could use some more RÜFÜS in my life.

[VIDEO] Metronomy - She Wants

If you didn't know already, Joseph Mount and the gang are getting ready to debut their third album The English Riviera in April.
I can't fucking wait.
Especially when I read this quote from bassist Gbenga Adelekan:
"We've been recording a new album which is pretty much done. Some of it is like Daft Punk meets the Eagles if you can believe that. Some of it is even weirder, more electronic. Some of it is almost like stuff from the first Metronomy album, very weird electronica. And then there's some really cool pop music on there as well. We've gotten a really good response to the new songs we've played. It's going to be a lot of fun to play live."
Daft Punk meets The Eagles? I'm down. Until then, check out the video for their first single "She Wants" directed by Jul and Mat. It's a brilliant piece of work, showcasing the french duos creative expertise in motion design and special effects. Oh, and the song? It's got that very distinct Metronomy sound but with a more composed and relaxed vibe that I can't get out of my head.

AMTRAC

Volcano children, allow me to introduce Amtrac, a 23 year old Kentucky native who cannot be relegated to a single genre. His tracks feature influence from all sorts of music, from nu-disco to synth pop, from electro house to dubstep, from breath takers to straight rump shakers. He released an EP entitled WHY and it definitely demonstrates his versatility as an artist, but the question remains which genre path will he actually follow? Or will he do the Diplo thing and just produce whatever he feels like?

Behold, the WHY EP

Amtrac - Emergency (My personal favorite, the whole thing is a ridiculous booty bass infused build)

Amtrac - Feel Good

Amtrac - Overtime

And not to be overlooked: the remixes
REMIXES by AMTRAC

I haven't heard one of his songs that I don't like yet, let me know if you find one.
