The famous French label Ed Banger, home of such low-key acts as Justice, SebastiAn, Uffie, Cassius or Mr Oizo has launched its latest compilation mixed by Busy P & Dj Medhi : "Let The Children Techno". Tracklist includes a wide variety of artists, most of them in short one-sided tracks which means the album could ultimately be more suited for mixing purpose than for home listening. As the stickers says on the cover "A brand new compilation of all fresh and unreleased music down and up-tempo,love and dub-step, warm and cold-beats and more international than Jesus.Just like the season." You'll surely find something of your taste in there but expect a lot more down's than up's.Beyond that, first SebastiAn debut (Total) is scheduled for May 2011 while Justice second studio album's first single ("Civilization") is set to be released on April 4. Quite a frenzy for Pedro Winter in 2011!
Tracklist :
01 Mr. Oizo: "Let the Children Techno" 02 Busy P: "Procrastinator" 03 Duke Dumont: "Hipgnosis" 04 Siriusmo: "Idiot" 05 Para One & Tacteel "Infinity Riser (Remix of Bernard Fevre's Dali)" 06 Breakbot: "Shades of Black" 07 Sebastian: "Enio" 08 Mattie Safer: "Is That Your Girl?" [ft. Telli from Ninjasonik] 09 Gesaffelstein: "The Voice" 10 Cassius: "Shark Simple (L-VIS 1990 & the Neon Dreams Remix)" 11 Djedjotronic: "The Invisible Landscape" 12 Discodeine: "Grace" 13 Feadz: "Far From Home" [ft. Claude Violante] 14 Brodinski & Tony Senghore: "Anagogue" 15 Bobmo: "Control" 16 Zombie Nation: "Relax" 17 Riton: "One Night Stand" 18 Skream: "Boat Party" 19 DJ Medhi: "TragicoMehdi" 20 Flying Lotus: "Caravan of Delight"
Here's a succinct overview at recent releases mixed together.Those are extract from the last Bpitch Control, Kompakt, Ed Banger and Get Physical Music labels compilations plus feature studio albums like Siriusmo, Maceo Plex and Rainbow Arabia.Fresh tunes from late 2010/ early 2011, this is as fast as you can get :)

As previously and correctly annonced in the last post, the new entry is about the 1 hour 22 minutes of the warm winter end of 2010 mix.Only two months later.Well, it' still full of synth waves, electronic weirdos themes,sci-fi post rock and discoïd breakbeats.Doesn't really describe anything right ? Just listen to it then or pay close attention to the tracklist.Hope you enjoy anyway!

Well, at least those that deserve in my eyes some special attention in the end of the year perspective.Totally subjective criteria indeed.
1.Daft Punk - Tron Legacy Soundtrack
A Soundtrack , not a studio album for the french duo but what can i say, i love Daft Punk and i love Hans Zimmer and for December i got them both in the Tron Legacy (Original Motion Picture Soundtrack).
2.James Holden - Dj Kicks
James Holden never disappoint in terms of mix compilation.Since his 'At The Controls' in 2006 that guy has my infinite respect.This dj kicks mix is more slow pace and kind of weird at first but after a few listens you begin to fully appreciate what was done here.Gratz.
3.Agoria - Balance 016
New installement of Balance by Agoria is also a reminder of 2010 electronic music : slower, more thoughtful and closer than ever to other genres.Listen to 'Emilia Torrini - Gun' to see what i'm talking about.
4.Ewan Pearson - We Are Proud Of Our Choices
One of the sweetest and smoothly electronic ballad of the year.
5.Seth Troxler -Boogy Bytes Vol.05
Well that one cames early in 2010 but i had listen to it many times.Partly because the intro was such a good party mood inducer with Dinky's satirical lyrics."Don't try to act smart, quit trying to be big" (horrible sound)
6.We Have Band - WHB
Nice short electro-pop album.Need to see them live to be more enthusiastic but 'Hero Knows" is a perfect ending tune for anything.
7.Groove Armada - Black Light
You could ask what is electro in that synth-rock loud waves of riffs and melodies.But yeah there is definitely something of the 80's here but in a good way.Two vocals : one female (and good) one male (hmmm...) alternatively on each tracks.One sure thing : listen to it very loud or don't.
8.The Chemical Brothers - Further
Talk about 'back to the roots".Weird 7h album for 'Les Freres Chimiques'.Lots of good stuff , Escape Velocity is quite the hit for me but unfortunately his length (11'56) cannot be compromise in a single 3'mn radio edit.We'll wait for the remixes.
9.Caribou - Swim
It's the hype of the season; Caribou trust reviews and made first 2010 album in the Resident Advisor Selection.As it is quite good, i think it may be overrated.
10.Underworld - Barking Deluxe
Well that's my weak point, i deeply discover electronic music with them and i can't avoid put their 6th studio album, especially when it has good reviews.Classic big trancey anthem but really find 'Moon In Water' unique and enjoyable repeatedly.
11.Bot'Ox - Babylon By Car
That's french, that's a melting pot of rock/electronic genres and that's awesome; that is all you need to know.
12.Michael Mayer - Immer 3
If you don't know Michael Mayer and his hugely acclaimed first Immer mix compilation then you know what you need to do.This modern iteration keeps the feeling of a soft cotton pop candy environment with a large touch of Mayer's usual melancholia.And no it's not placed here because of the Charlotte Gainsbourg remix by Superpitcher (really ? yeah seriously!)
13.Susumu Yokota - Kaleidoscope
Of course an ambient album is not recommended if you're not used to those long repetitive loops of infinite echoes and sound patterns.But 'Her Feminineness' , a track by an unknown Japanese producer with a loop of European church bells is worth the effort.
14.Sebastian Mullaert aka Minilogue - WaWuWe
2 Mixed Cd's from one of the duo behind Minilogue.And that does what you expect : it's deep, really deep, progressive, well mixed and perfect for home listening in a rainy day.
15.Apparat - Dj-Kicks
Apparat is talented, that we all agree.But i think his Dj Kicks is going in too many ways too many times.It's still very good with a selection of fine surprising tunes.A bit demanding.
16.Pantha Du Prince - Black Noise
I needed a 16th and Pantha Du Prince second album is absolutely well crafted and charming.Like a sorceress spell.
That's all folks.Next coming is Xmas Mix post. Happy New Year!
Here's the second and final part of the series.Enjoy the bumpy electro kickass rock side !
Tracklist :
01.Bot'Ox - Rue De L'Arsenal (Yuksek Remix) 02.Clark - Growls Garden 03.Yuksek - Supermenz (We're Not) 04.Bag Raiders - Turbo Love (Light Year Remix) 05.Ray Parker Jr - Ghostbusters (Don Rimini Remix) 06.Mason Vs Princess Superstar - Perfect Exceeder 07.Queen Of Japan - I Was Made For Lovin' You 08.Ladytron - Ghosts (Cassette Jam Mix) 09.Vitalic - Poison Lips 10.Arthur Agent - Hold Your Head Up (Soulwhacked Mix) 11.Alex Gopher - Aurora (Shinichi Osawa Remix) 12.MGMT - Kids (Soulwax Remix) 13.Daft Punk - Technologic (Vitalic Remix) 14.T.Rex - 20Th Century Boy (Hoshina Anniversary Remix) 15.Richie Beretta - Release The Booze Hounds 16.Wolfmother - White Unicorn (Mr. Jimma Remix) 17.Justice - Phantom Part II (Boys Noize Remix Kodomo Re-Edit) 18.Digitalism - Taken Away (Lapse Remix) 19.Tiga - (Far From) Home (Digitalism Remix) 20.Shinichi Osawa - Star Guitar 21.A-Ha - Take On Me (The Twelves Remix)
Following the previous entries about the upcoming Tron soundtrack which will be equivalent (i guess) to the 4th Daft Punk studio album, we have a few new things to add on this topic. First, the release date has been fixed to the 7th December (10 days before the movie actually).Tracklist has even "leaked" :
Tron: Legacy Soundtrack:
01 Overture 02 The Grid 03 The Son of Flynn 04 Recognizer 05 Armory 06 Arena 07 Rinzler 08 The Game Has Changed 09 Outlands 10 Adagio For Tron 11 Nocturne 12 End of Line 13 Derezzed 14 Fall 15 Solar Sailer 16 Rectifier 17 Disc Wars 18 C.L.U. 19 Arrival 20 Flynn Lives 21 Tron Legacy (End Titles) 22 Finale
You can listen to the new track Derezzed if you haven't done already :
If you want more , there is some details here on Pitchfork and on Dazed where they made the cover (in 3d).
Also if you been on a island for some time maybe (maybe!) you still haven't see Daft Punk and Phoenix playing together at the Madison Square Garden :
Definitely 2010 is the year of the come back for Guy-Manuel de Homen Christo et Thomas Bangalter.Cant' wait for a 2011 Tron live tour!
01.Nathan Fake - You Are Here 02.Paul Kalkbrenner - Aaron 03.Thomas Fehlman - Permanent Touch 04.Principles Of Geometry - A Mountain For President 05.Vitalic - Second Lives (Lifelike Remix) 06.They Came From The Stars I Saw Them - Rabbit Seal Monkey (King Of Town Extra ½ Remix) 07.Siriusmo - Nights Off 08.Booka Shade - Regenerate 09.Abakus - Glamour 10.Phil Keran - Past The Present Future 11.Kiko - Preludia 12.Extrawelt - Fernweh 13.Ricardo Tobar - With You 14.Minilogue - Little Sisters (Nox & Beckers Remix) 15.Moonbeam - Tiger 16.Misstress Barbara - Four On The Floor 17.Dusty Kid - Constant Rising 18.Micronauts - Sweat 19.Trentemøller - Moan (Trentemøller Dub Remix) 20.Water Lilly - Unchained Melody 21.Kate Wax - Angel Blues 22.The Mfa - The Difference It Makes (Superpitcher Remix)
Hey guys.Been a while since last entry, "been there done that", blah blah blah....So i've a couple of things going on here in the near future.First i'll upload mixes from the Schyzophrenia Party, beginning today with the smoothly sweet electronic candy that i personally enjoy and in the near future the second part which is more of a dancefloor-electro rock-lol tunes set. I also have an ongoing project featuring more ambient and deep aspect of influences.I'm starting to use Ableton (for better or for worse) and maybe will includes more editing than previous stuff.Furthermore i'm collecting some stuff to try another work with more dark 80's / electro (as Anthony Rother Electro) sound that should hit the road in late November/early December if i'm lucky.Besides i'm getting a large plate of new stuff as the year ends and will probably go in a frenzy furious rush mode of getting everything from the "50 best 2010 compilations/albums/singles" articles we'll soon see everywhere.So here we go!
2 sets.One electro synth/progressive-house oriented (say Principles of Geometry,Extrawelt and Moonbeam) and one for the late-night electro blog-house/rock remixes mood (MGMT,Yuksek,Wolfmother). Thanks to GraphicalInk for the design.
Well, it's been a while since i've been introducing a record label here.So i will fulfill my duty with this obscure,extravagant but very enlightening one.
As their facebook page says : "Thisisnotanexit Records is the cult UK independent record label inspired by David Lynch, William Burroughs, Guy Debord and Factory." so you know already that is not gonna be your typical dancefloor-big-kick-ass-electro-tuna-oriented record label. Sounds more like a reminiscence of a underground post-punk scene or an early surrealist avant-garde movement.And well, the fist compilation they released is called :
THISISNOTANEXIT - Manifesto # 1
This is definitely that one you need to get if you want to discover some of the best tracks they produced because the tracklist is very diversified and with names like "Pand City Band" you sure as hell want to take a spin with them.
Chapter One - Unmixed 01. Detachments - Messages 02. Brain Machine - Pulsations 03. Professor Genius - A Jean Giraud 5 04. Panda City Band - Wet Journey 05. Naum Gabo - Like Crystalline 06. Spectral Empire - Lift Shaft 07. Pink Stallone - Vlad 08. Night Plane - Let The Right One In 09. Hatchback - Jetlag 10. Moscow - Boson 11. Young Monday - Zaire 12. Weird Tapes - The Walking Dead 13. The Dark Esquire - What You Need 14. Parallels - Ultralight 15. They Came From The Stars, I Saw Them - Rabbit Seal Monkey
Chapter Two - Mixed by Simon A. Carr 01. Spectral Empire - Innerfearence (Chateau Flight Remix) 02. Hatchback - White Diamond (Prins Thomas Miks Del 1 & 2) 03. Brain Machine - Heaven 8 04. Detachments - Fear No Fear 05. Naum Gabo - Pictur (Joakim Remix) 06. Club Silencio - Turpe Traxx (Sankt Goran Remix) 07. They Came From The Stars, I Saw Them - Moon Song (Serge Santiago Totally Different Mix) 08. Detachments - Circles (King Of Town Remix) 09. Parallels - Midnight Voices 10. Professor Genius - A Jean Giraud 1 (Brennan Green Version) 11. They Came From The Stars, I Saw Them - Moon Song (The Gospel According To Mung 2012 Live At The Hacienda Version)
"Whether the compilation is indulging the label's more overtly demanding and uncompromising side or its friendly, more immediate tendencies, the generally tense surrounding created by such diversity and contrasts is what makes the entire proposition an edgy and constantly unpredictable listen. Manifesto #1 is a manifesto indeed."
None of the names should ring a bell, but i assure you some are really excellent.I, for myself, can listen to the remix of They Came From The Stars I Saw Them (what a mouthful!) by King Of Town over and over again (and so do you) :
Lastly, there is a bunch of videos here, so go give it a try!
We already talked about these Daft Punk-related news a couple of months ago here and here (remember the Cryda Luv remix ?). A new trailer has coming up for Tron Legacy as the comic-conmadness is actually going on.You can watch it here :
But, most important, you can listen to bits of the new Daft Punk soundtrack on the official website.5 tracks are available right now but it's not a very user-friendly interface (no really, it's not) so you can listen to it on youtube :
or you can download them in mp3 here :
DOWNLOAD (could be removed so don't wait too long)
As it sounds yet really great, i think they might be some loop hiding the full potential of these songs without a single beat.We'll see in the next future if climax peak will be reached as the soundtrack reveal itself to go darker and dafter.
