Finally, after a 3 year hiatus MSTRKRFT release their second album, Fist of God! I loved their first album, The Looks – it is probably one of my most played albums of the last couple of years and combined all of the ferocity I had grown accustomed to from Keeler (formerly of Death From Above [...]

“Invaders Must Die” – it is, for me, one of those releases that stands out above pretty much anything else. The Prodigy have a tradition for lengthy gaps between albums (a lovely 5 years this time) but manage to pull off a great LP each time. You could almost say it’s well worth the wait, [...]

It’s been a long, anticipated wait for me, and when I heard that Yuksek‘s first LP was being released in February I was straight online with my payment details at the ready! It was released on the 9th in the UK ad of course I received my copy on that day! Influences apparent in his [...]

A remix by, a then, unknown French production duo named Justice started [...]

I first heard her new single, “Quicksand” a couple of weeks back when it came in at second on the track listing of the aforementioned Kitsuné Maison Compilation 6. This is now being released through Kitsuné on the 15th December. “La Roux” – simply [...]

Good old friends of Eyemaylisten, Drive A, have new material and we are very happy to shout about it. They are back with a great new look and have certianly matured; I can almost perv on them now ^_^. Their new single; ‘Are You Blind’ is worth checking out. It’s a stretch out of the [...]

Good morning. I have something of great delight to share with you on this beautifully muggy Sunday morn; Boom Boom Satellites and their CD “Exposed”. “Japanese dance rock pioneers Boom Boom Satellites (aka bassist/programmer Masayuki Nakano and guitarist/vocalist Michiyuki Kawashima) celebrates their 10-year anniversary with the digital release of “Exposed.” Boom Boom Satellites are widely [...]

Well goodness me, didn’t that take some time. Our internet resources have been out for a long long time.. and still are.. but alas, we are learning to work around it.
