A thing of beauty is a joy forever: this remix of Nosaj Thing’s Fog by Jamie XX is, following this reasoning, everlasting bliss. A combination of two of my favourite producers at the moment; there’s nothing in this world that would make me any happier at the moment! Nosaj Thing has remixed The XX’s Islands […]

Originally, the purpose of this post was to hand you over twenty-five R&B remixes. Listening to Mala’s Alicia for the 1000th time, which is probably one of my favourite tracks ever done by Mala if not one of my favourite tracks ever, it occurred to me we needed a top list of good R&B remixes on here […]

Square Mode’s mail had me lost for words – I literally only have this little information to tell you. The most straight to the point promotional mail I have ever received, probably. It went something like: “Hello, this is what’s up, bye.”. I got my search engine on and the following is what’s up: Square […]

Some things in life we can rely on as fact; they are a given, they are pure truths. Just as we know night follows day, as we know the Sun rises in the East and sets in the West, and as we know toast, without fail, always falls butter-side down – we know that California […]

I first talked to _mero the day the iPhone 4 came out in Dublin. We both got one that day, and I think we both got the last ones available in the shops we went to. I was a complete iPhone noob so he was able to tell me all the various different cool things […]

Kamau Baaqi, the skilled Dubai-based, Detroit-born and Berlin-elect producer, who’s better known under his nom de guerre Darling Farah, has released his EP Berline through Civil Music earlier today. This release holds two tracks by his own handcraft; the title-track and one sweet club mix to go with it. The original version sounds big, in […]

It’s Friday night, beautiful weather – let’s get drunk together. Don’t we all live by these wise, yet completely idiotic words? I guess so.
