Little Boots - New In Town



This one is pure pop bliss. If you don't like pop, fine. Have it your way. If you enjoy well written and executed pop music, you'll recognize this piece of candy for what it is. Lookout Lady Gaga.

Truckasauras - Fak !!



Watch the Ultimate Warrior get ultimately gay with your childhood hero and reality television ass Hulk Hogan. Exploiting the obviously gay overtones of the sport, Truckasauras packs in some real funk , just like the Hulkster packin it between UW's tits.

Skyzoo - The Necessary Evils



Directed by Tee Smif, KCCC

I've heard good things about Skyzoo and apparently there is a lot more to come. I like it, this is true hip hop!

Animal Collective - My Girls



I feel like I've never really understood these guys until I heard this track. It's Beautiful, like the Beach Boys singing over the Orb.

Junior Boys - Last Exit



I really like Junior Boys. I've already posted a couple of their videos. If you like this, search the others. They have proven to be one of the best and most versatile electronic acts around today. From dancefloors to chill lounds, these boys know how to make it sound good.

John Acquaviva - Metal Detector



I think I may like this video better than the song. The video's hilarious, metal detector hijinx, of national security proportions. The song has a nice edge to it, as it plows through the dancefloor like a tingle of the spine, from the bass in your face.

Richie Hawtin - The Tunnel



music video for the richie hawtin track "the tunnel" by ali m. demirel

This goes out to all those who couldn't make it to DEMF this year. Here's a piece from techno legend Richie Hawtin. Hawtin is famous for his Plastikman of rave lore. Nobody has done it better or as long as this dude. He's like a techno fudamentalist with no desire to ever sell out to cash it in big. The continuing works of genius from this dude needs props from all.

Moby - Whispering Wind



A good Moby song without the formula that made him famous (I mean outside the electronic music field). It's a nice relaxing tune with insightful lyrics and a nice vibe. Sunday driving music, let the top down!

The Pink Mountaintops - White Witch.



I've always liked witches and this white witch is no exception. It could definitely be longer, but I like what I hear.

Marc Romboy feat Chelonis R Jones - The Beat



I really enjoyed this video. Nature is truly freaky, just like the vibe on this trance electro mover.

MF Doom - Dead Bent



MF DOOM, video for Dead Bent from his classic solo debut Operation: Doomsday.

When Doom is on, there's nobody better at flippin lyrics. I wish there were more songs like this on his new one. He's still one of my favorites.

Salem - Astronaut



Had to place this one again just to make sure it was really as good as I thought it was. I am instantly in love with this song. Great stuff, really!

Terre Thaemlitz - Fat Chair



from the album 'chill out phase two' (1994) Label: Instinct Records, video. Andy Goldsworthy - Rivers and Tides

This is a truly beautiful meditative composition. Both the video and audio hint at a journey of sorts through life with a definite end that is poeticaly unavoidable.

The Juan Maclean - One Day



The Juan Maclean - "One Day" Album - The Future Will Come - www.thejuanmaclean.com Directed by Patrick Longstreth - www.patricklongstreth.com (c) 2009 DFA Records

The Juan MacLean does electro house with all cheese withheld for your dietary needs. If I'm not mistaken this guy is from Columbus, although his music comes via New York City in the name of DFA Records. Buy them, love them.

Max Peezay ft. Ears & Radioclit - Emergency



Max Peezay brings together a nice crew for this one and the result is dope. I always think it's ridicuous that American audience's aren't more accepting of British hip hop. Oh well, their loss.

AtOm

The Prodigy - Omen



The Prodigy return with what they do best. Loud beats with a punk edge that make you want to take a few spins in the pit. In the spirit of NIN and Ministry, The Prodigy are making a strong effort to get back on top after a long lull between hits. This one is apparently on The Terminator: Salvation Soundtrack. I've always liked them, I felt that maybe they had lost their way after they hit it big, but if you like there early stuff, you should like this.

Deepchord Presents Echospace



This is some serious dubtech ambient out of Detroit. Those seeking builds to a crescendo need look elsewhere. Deepchord bubbles along with some subtle subconscious grooves that drive without warrant of a destination. Enjoy the journey through the streets at night in Germany, viewed through the black and white lense of future art.

Ani Maamin - DeScribe דיסקרייב , JewDa Maccabi , Taz



Ani Maamin official music video Ani Maamin official video clip Music produced by Taz, Music engineered by Elyada Ramon. Lyrics by DeScribe, Taz, JewDa Maccabi. Video directed and produced by DeScribe.

I came across this one looking for a video for Taz. He shows some nice production skills on this track. I think from the looks of this, these are some true Jewish hip hop heads producing a peace anthem for the homeland via NYC. All in all it's a really strong effort that I'm quite pleased to have found. Hip hop is worldwide culture.

Erika Rose - Rosegarden



Erika Rose's debut album Rosegarden, video title track "Rosegarden"

Wow, this girl's got some real talent. We'll be hearing more from this souljazz queen in the future. I like rosegardens alot and this song fits like a glove. It's good to see botany become the focus of some new art. Simply beautiful!

1200 Techniques - Karma



I can't believe I haven't heard of these guys before. They are obviously a well-polished group that likes to make funky music for puppeteering, an underappreciated art for the ages. Freaky, yet with none of the disgusting displays in such videos as Team America and Sad Kermit. Let's keep our puppets pure America, and we'll try our best to get our kids to follow. Puppets are the answer...buy your child a puppet today... puppets.
