While I don’t put much stock in anything that the Daily Mail reports, the song is pretty damn chill. Long too. So, just in case you wanted to pass out at your desk on this Thursday morning, or if you need a track to soothe your frazzled nerves after your 3rd cup of coffee, we’ve got just was the doctor ordered. Kudos to the Marconi Union for this. Hit them up if you’re in Manchester and need to take the edge off a gabber show.
New Burial EP!
One year and one day after Burial brought us Truant (featured below), a new 3 track EP is dropping Dec 16th. I finally have something to look forward to that doesn’t involve consumerism or high-fructose corn syrup this month! (via FACT)
Ten Questions With Terry Gotham: Suntalk
@TerryGotham Saturday 8 oclock @ Rockwood 😉
— SUNTALK (@SUNTALKMUSIC) November 27, 2013
And, after not being able to get details straight and embarrassing myself in front of the rockers, so I went. I saw a fantastic new band called Suntalk Saturday night. Rockers with serious chops, I can’t wait to hear them on the radio. I got to interview them after their tight set at the Rockwood, a cozy space just south of Houston St.
1. What is it like being a live band during the EDM boom?
Demetrius – It’s a little intimidating, a little bit. However, it’s also inspiring at the same time because, we believe in our music enough to still put it out. We still feel as if we have something worth giving. We didn’t die down, I know people who say “we can’t go up after that (dj).” I’m still playing burner shows, and I make sure they listen to the music.
Different Sports As Dance Music Genres
Mixmag threw together a great little feature showcasing different genres of music as different sports. It’s pretty spot on, and now I can’t think of Armin Van Buuren without imagining him in volleyball shorts. That and Jay-Z as a cloistered, shady darts champion? Classic.
New Collaboration Between Volkswagen & Underworld is Awesomely Dangerous.
Volkswagen recently tapped old school stars of electronica Underworld to help them develop an an app that takes data from your VW systems on brakes, gas, steering and creates music with it. That’s right, you can generate Underworld-designed grooves by driving your car. Of course, the app both isn’t out yet, and also seems a terrible way to increase auto-accidents. As the beat gets harder as you get faster, this couldn’t possibly go without incident in the USA. Check out the full tech demo below, for 18min of synthy, electronic goodness & a VW driving around a test track.

How To Make The Next 5 Pointz. Stop-Motion How-to Guide Included.
It’s totally possible, and it seems that a group of competent writers can get an entire building done in short order. There’s no reason to waste time trying to get the management of one building change its mind or to punish the owners. You find 10 others that agree with your goal already. The public has your attention, use it wisely. A group of Australian taggers show you exactly how easy it can be. Run around, have fun, and film it in HD. Way better than bitching on facebook, and it was just for a spray paint brand ad. We can do better. #rip5pointz
Broke On Holiday: ReSolute, Cielo (Free), Output (Free), Sankeys & More!…Turkey Day Weekend!
http://www.residentadvisor.net/event.aspx?542313
There’s quite a bit going on over the long weekend so you have no excuse to whine about being stuck dealing with your family, as long as you live in limping distance to the 5 boroughs. I’ve got a semi-competent list of quality goods that won’t break the bank. That way, if you need to buy another drink to deal with your family, you don’t have to sell any plasma. I know, I’m a generous soul, once again making it all better with bass. Here they are, ordered by day. Come on out and burn off all of them stuffing-related calories. Pictured above is Hector Moralez, with deep support at an underground venue in Brooklyn. There’s a strong chance this event will be fabulous, and a certainty it’ll have a deep, latin, funky & soulful vibe to it. There aren’t very many of these spaces left in NYC, and at $15.00, you’re paying what I paid when there were more than a decade ago.
Stock Footage of Dogs In Slow Motion Set To House Music
Really, what else is there to say. This is kind of wonderful. Delicious, cute, afternoon snack filled with dogs running around to house music. Does what it says on the tin.
Breaking Bad Theme Out TODAY on Vinyl, Walking Dead to Follow. But Only At Hot Topic.
Just in case you needed to sample either theme of these shows, your prayers have been answered. Breaking Bad’s theme is dropped on deluxe vinyl today, with The Walking Dead theme hitting release on December 3rd. Thanks to Stoney Roads for the heads up. Mix this with your “Dance Bitch” track and you’ve got a genuine (but terrible) cable thriller mini-mix. The hilarious catch is, you have to actually go to Hot Topic to get your copy. You heard me right. Are you willing to walk into that corner of mall-based faux/alt/bubblegum punk couture to get your hands on that last record for your 2014 Halloween Mix?
