  • Sovnger - Blake, What I like

    Forgettable, loud and obnoxious techno noise but with a cool and crazy video shot in the subway system of Paris, France. Featuring a fast moving and insanely fun relay race, the camera has such an incredibly fast framerate that the fluorescent lights can be seen to be flickering, which would otherwise be imperceptible to the naked eye because of their incredibly high frequency. Ridiculously Awesom... Read More

  • Bloc Party - This Modern Love

    It was on an October night, in Paris. We went to a pub, made some noise outside with a German band. Kele, Bloc Party's singer, went out. We asked him to sing. He said no. We asked again, he said 'yes but'. Then, we asked again... Here it is, just one song, an old song, played acoustic for the first time. Read More

  • Phoenix - 1901

    "We had been playing cat and mouse for months. We attended the same shows in Paris, talked a little, mentioning maybe we could do something together... to then see them leave, become huge, and even more intriguing, elusive.

trentemoller-the-last-resortThe overall feeling of The Last Resort, Danish producer Trentmoller’s twenty-two-track feast of an album for Berlin’s own seminal tech-house imprint Poker Flat is integrative, not segregationist. In other words, this is any purist’s nightmare. Trentemoller’s own strength, though, lies in his devotion to details (he seems to be following Depeche Mode’s famous “Never use the same sound twice” mantra) and his dedication to syncretism.  Nightwalker's moody dub  might be slightly dark, but it is always exhilarating, never depressing. On that level, it is an utter success.
