Trouble – Totally Enormous Extinct Dinosaurs

Totally Enormous Extinct Dinosaurs (TEED) is a name created by the cleverly imaginative Orlando Higginbottom. Even his name oozes originality and creativity. You may have heard his song “Garden” which is featured on this album, backing the recent Nokia Lumia advert. He is definitely a new artist that wades in the mainstream and strides in the underground. Listening to this album for the first time after only hearing his song “Garden” made me realise his…

The Jersey Bore

I guess GTL must have gotten really boring and barely any girls were DTF. What other reason would Jersey Shore juice head Ronnie Ortiz-Magro take a crack at the rap game with “How The F%#K We Gettin’ Home?” Definitely not for publicity…no…reality stars never do stuff like that. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Anm6166lQNQ The production courtesy of The Extraordinary Gentlemen is not terrible, maybe tolerable at absolute best. The entire song, on the other hand, sounds like something off…

Two new cut tracks from Flying Lotus

Flying Lotus

I’m a FlyLo fanatic ever since I dropped upon his instant underground classic debut “1983”. One of the perks you, my friends, get out of this is an instant update whenever Flying Lotus has something out. A bit late I admit, yesterday, the talented producer uploaded two new tracks provisionally, or not, titled “Lullaby” and “Heave (n) mix2” on his SoundCloud account. As always, stumping 2-4 beats, well layered percussion and mind racketing keys top…

Mr. Little Jeans

Although far from being a Mr., Norway’s Monica Birkenes is one of the most impressive electro artists I’ve sampled in a while, and if you’re just about to contradict me, just hit play below and listen to her cover of Arcade Fire’s Suburbs. Click on the small around in the right of the souncloud player to download. The beats a darn killer, a nice 2-step dubstep instrumental overlayed by Monica’s haunting vocals, which in the…

New Tron Legacy trailer featuring Daft Punk soundtrack

This summer I managed to get ahold of some footage and samples of the alleged new Tron Legacy soundtrack by futuristic house DJs Daft Punk.

Download: Sage Francis – “Three Sheets to the Wind” (Dan Le Sac remix)

The less bearded half of the funktastic duo Dan Le Sac and Scroobius Pip just recently released a smashing remix for Sage Francis’ “Three Sheets to the Wind”. Heavy beats, a wobbly bass line on top of Sage’s infectious lyrics makes this a great party starter, as well as another quality addition to the slew of dubstep remixes catching heat lately. Stream and download from the player below (hit the arrow button on the far…

[VIDEO] The Japanese Popstars feat. Green Velvet – ‘Let Go’

Spontaneous and fascinating, the animated video for The Japanese Popstars’ “Let Go” will make you want to take off, clean and scrub your eyeballs. This is dirty, this is techno, this is awesome! The technique somewhat reminds me of Blu’s stop motion graffiti animation, which you guys should check out, if you haven’t already.
