A kind man from Muzikology B.V. sent me this awesome pre-release. Dutch producer Don Diablo teams up with UK rapper Example for this one, set to be released soon (on 29 June 2009 I believe)! Here’s what the press release had to say:

Don Diablo and Example team up for their joint effort “Hooligans”, which is set to become the mosh pit anthem of 2009! On remix duties: Noisia, Spor, A1 Bassline, Doorly and the main man Don Diablo himself. Make sure you grab your copy of “Aerodynamic Hooligans” as well, which is a mash-up Don Diablo did of his Hooligans track with elements of Daft Punk’s “Aerodynamic” and yes, you know it will work like a MoFo on the floor! Release date: 29.06 (except Australia / North America / Mexico, release dates tbc). Check out the music video here: www.youtube.com/watch?v=OH78CezwPOQ.

The video is pretty rad, so give it a look! They also sent through links to download SEVEN different mixes of the track, one of which is a mash-up with Daft Punk’s “Aerodynamic”. Grab them below! Grab some album art for the tracks over here!

Long time electrotrash friend Richard the Third has just finished working on his upcoming album Third World From the Sun. The good news is that you will be able to get most of it via MTN Xploaded (not live yet) and you can listen to some of the tracks on his Facebook page.

However, as a favour to us he sent us the dirty disco banger “Dancing with the DJ’s Girl” featuring the Tutus (and Desmond). The track features that sexy deep bass that we love along with the unique and catchy vocals of Desmond or is it his Tutus? They only way of getting the full album which includes this track is to go to one of his gigs and beg him for a copy of the album at the DJ Booth.

So in case that doesn’t work, or you just never go out but love listening to banging electro here it is:

Hipless Couples (Nabbed off the Daydream Nation Facebook group)

I have been really slow in getting this post up! A while ago Len Cockraft aka Hipless Couples dropped a track in my inbox. The track is called “Just FFFuck” and it’s a pretty hard hitting, banging electro track.

Len used to be the drummer for the band “The Wild Eyes“, I was a big fan of them, so for me it is awesome to see someone from the band releasing some electro fun! Len is also involved in the Daydream Nation parties that have been taking place at The Assembly in Cape Town. I’m sure you will be hearing more about this swinger in the coming months!

Grab the track below (or check our Downloads page!)

Kind words by VEREVÜLFF

“With Lapses’ roots firmly planted in hip-hop and soul, and as with many fans they fond hip-hop stagnated and bored the crap out of many of it’s dj’s/producers. Forcing them at gun point to explore other genre’s, which we can only thank them for… because now Lapse makes dance music, and plays dance music.

Still collecting the fuel for his tracks (from his love for funk/soul), with hand claps and cow bells. Lapse has always made and played music to move too, whether it’s moving too work, play or too and from the bar it doesn’t dare you to stand still.

His is the soundtrack to all you salmon swimming upstream. “

After years of searching, unplanned plans emerged. Being tired of hearing the same songs with the same formulas, music with more politics and trends than notes in their music, all of this couldn’t possible be within the majority of music in our country. There could be no salvation in a business like that.
So Oceans and Cities emerged.
This music has no face.
This music isn’t about trends and fashion.
These songs don’t complain or embrace.
There are no words, you already know them..
These songs echo with your own voice and thoughts.
And it will always be in progress, moulding and shaping the sound, feeding it till there is no more space left and you are left with something.
The storm is outside, come in here.

Check out our downloads section for some free Oceans & Cities mp3’s!
