Jet Pilot



A track by Audioporno (on the ghettotronica label) has been sitting in my backlog for some time. It’s crunchy with electro stabs, and gives you the irresistible urge to bounce around.

Digitalism - Live


JetPilot


Saturday, 01:14 AM



The German electro duo Digitalism recently played in Brussels recently and I happened to stumble upon a live recording. Obviously I’m going to have to share the love. The sound quality is reasonable, although one can tell it’s live.

Digitalism - live in Brussels 10.06.2007

At around t+50 minutes into the set there was an awesome glitchy version Never let me down again by Depeche Mode - I let my secret squirrels do their thing and bring it back to me, and since I haven’t seen it around the blog community of late (last and only time, according to hype machine, is on fluokids last November) here you are… enjoy!

There is a robot mixing in my bedroom


JetPilot

Not actually, but I’ve been wanting to use this image forever! Although this tasty treat is electro-ey and the vocals distorted enough, and has a unrelenting beat that makes me think of all the robotic arms in a car factory swiveling to their own groove.

This is also a special treat because my friend in music Jake is over in Melbourne seeing Riot in Belgium tonight! I’m incredibly jealous, especially since he also got to shake Tiga’s hand on Friday! Enough of my pining though, here is the music:

Blamma Red Shoes


JetPilot


Jun 5, 02:53 AM



I stumbled across a Blamma Blamma remix of Blood Red Shoes’ It’s Getting Boring By The Sea. I’ve talked about some of Blamma Blamma’s previous work that I’m quite partial to, and this remix is a slightly different to their previous work as it’s still reasonably recognisable as the same song, and also rockier than the other stuff. I still like it, and it is dance-fantastic. It’s due to be released in the UK on V2, June 11. So make sure you buy it freaks.

Udy - Reset the Bet


JetPilot


Jun 5, 02:44 AM



Udy is the creator of the Under Your Nose project. He likes to DJ techno, electro and house among other styles and is an avid producer making all kinds of random tracks (Apparently, he is also obsessed with taking over the world). One of these random tracks made it’s way to me, is called “Reset the Beat” and was mastered by his good friend at Electramento, Vortechtral.

It’s quite a bouncy and distorted, song, and is probably more techno orientated then I’d usually listen to or play, still I thought it’d be worth sharing with you:

Luna-C

Luna-c was fun. Although my set wasn’t that flash and most people were in the main zone dancing to the headliner (i.e. Luna-c).

Rather than try and describe anything further, I’ll show a few videos. First is a tour between the three zones (some of that camera shaking is me dancing, but some of it is also the bass shaking the camera:

SCUOLA FURANO


JetPilot


May 28, 12:55 AM



Scuola Furano, from Italy, sent me a minimix with some of their new tunes, to be on their EP coming out in June. They’ve played with the likes of Justice, Busy P, SMD, Uffie, Sebastian. 3 years ago they released an album and also an ep last year - and look to be coming back strong.

Here’s the blurb they sent with the mix:
“Hey creep, you heard it on the radio, you seen it on the tv show…Scuola Furano are back! Hot on the heels of recent massive live dates with Justice, Chemical Brothers, Snoop Dogg and more, SF have taken some time out to prepare a FFFRRREEESSSSHHHH mix in collaboration with MySpace and MantraVibes rec. Including 3 HOT new tracks and 3 old skool CLASSICS…
Check it out!”

It’s quite housey and minimal in parts, but sometimes that’s a GOOD thing. More for the contrast when glitchier stuff comes in later.

Young Americans - Dial 1


JetPilot


May 28, 12:39 AM



Tyler from Young Americans passed me this excellent track. Glitchy and electro, it hits the right spots for me.

“You can dial 1, dial 1 for the operator”

(Note: Still catching up on some musical goodies that were emailed to me. They’ve most likely popped up elsewhere, but if you missed out first time round, then lucky for you I’m posting them now)

La Grève Générale – Rave or Die


JetPilot


May 23, 11:04 AM



Man, I’ve been hellish busy recently, so this gem of a mix from none other than La Grève Générale has been sitting sparkling away in my inbox for a couple of weeks now. You’ve probably seen it floating around the mp3 blog scene already, but if you missed it, grab it now. It’s some good stuff, a recorded live mix from Rave or Die at the Rocklands Party in London held Saturday 5th May. LGG seem to never disappoint me.

I think it’s the eclectic and interesting track selection that does it for me. Keep it up guys!
