So having a few good friends as computer engineer graduates really pays off sometimes.
Anyone who frequents Hypem is going to love this (and if you don’t frequent Hypem, then I don’t know, man, you are really missing out on life):
My friend F, who keeps a great blog documenting his endeavours with programming has created a Google Chrome extension that inputs a download button next to every song on Hype Machine, so that when you hear a great new song, you can have it at a click of a button! Amazing.
To me, this really demonstrates the possibilities open source web technology creates for users, and poses some fascinating questions regarding intellectual property. I really wish I knew how to program now considering its many advantages in today’s world.
Oh, and if you’re not using Google Chrome as your default browser for whatever stupid reason, (Firefox, Safari… or dare I say IE?) you should probably get on that shit now.
相信喜歡YUCK和The Pains of Being Pure at Heart這樣類型的吉他/噪音流行樂隊，大概不會想要錯過The History Of Apple Pie這支倫敦五人編制的新團，繼他們發行於年中的上一張單曲You're So Cool後，新單曲Mallory好像是今天發行，比較有意思的是The Horrors的Tom Furse替他們這支新作弄了個混音版本可以透過下面來試聽（並提供WAV檔下載）。The History Of Apple Pie - Mallory (Tom Furse Optimello Orchestra Mix) [WAV] The History Of Apple Pie - Mallory
Straight from the UK I present you with Feral aka MC Kinky. This gyal is one of the coolest homies around and is also an absolute boss when it comes to producing and has by far one of the best vocals in the biz. The kinky MC is credited as being the first white female ragga MC in music history! She has worked with names such as Pete Tong, Paul Oakenfold, Danny Tenalgia, Joost van Bellen and many more. Furthermore, she also had a residency in Ibiza at Manumission which is this big circus-like club night that I have yet to experience. Nowadays Feral aka MC Kinky is busy bustin’ out new tunes and performing at festivals and totally killin it in the scene, boom!
Exclusive to Feral PartyKids, we are giving away the first 100 downloads of Feral aka MC Kinky’s upcoming single “Chit Chat” for free!. Grab it quick as this massive track is not available for download anywhere else and won’t be available as free download anymore once the download limit is reached. To other producers or DJ’s out there that would like to get their hands on the wav, hit us up and we’ll hook you up.
Jumping on the bandwagon early, Yes You appear to have but one song, which you can download below and nought else but a truckload of hype.
Gypsy and the Cat without the bombast but still packing plaintive vocals and cheesy string synths. Another worthy contender in 2011 from Brisbane’s surging electronic scene – a scene surging much like a river might surge after a torrential downpour.
Pictures Music are set to release the debut 12” from Lewis Roberts a.k.a. Koreless. An exciting 19 year old producer living in Glasgow, delivering crisp emotions via gentle 2-step bass which is rolled together with hi-hats. Tracks such as 4D, MTI and Up Down Up Down were created a year ago and only now are seeing a release date. Since then Lewis has got himself some management and new fans/ friends in Jamie XX, James Blake and Sampha. Koreless creates music which is designed to arouse emotion, creating an atmosphere wherever it is played. Other releases are already being planned for the young producer coming thorough on Pictures Music (also home to Seams and Darky Sky), as well as a collaborative project with Lone on Dublin’s All-City Records label.
If you head over to the Picture House website you will be able to grab ‘Up Down Up Down’ for free, which will be released on the debut 12″ (HERE)
