MOUSE ON MARS\u00a0<\/strong>[GERMANY]
\nmine is in yours\u00a0<\/strong>mp3<\/a>
\nif you’re following the free mp3 releases from\u00a0better propaganda<\/a>, then you’ll undoubtedly have this – a track from the new\u00a0mouse on mars<\/strong>\u00a0album ‘radical connector’. i haven’t followed the band that closely, but i’m assured that not only am i coming very late to the party, but that this track is also a departure from their trademark sound. this is mid-tempo vocal electro pop, retaining some of their experimentation and adding significant acoustic guitar into the mix. conversely, another track from the album – ‘wipe that sound’ – is much more dancefloor friendly, which instantly suggests that ‘radical connector’ is going to be a release to pay a great deal of attention to when it drops.
\nSTEREONOVA\u00a0<\/strong>[ITALY]
\nsometimes\u00a0<\/strong>mp3<\/a>
\nstereonova<\/strong>\u00a0are two italian DJs who have moved into production, making some tidy progressive house in the vein of\u00a0sacha<\/strong>,\u00a0digweed<\/strong>,\u00a0deep dish<\/strong>\u00a0et al. they have residences on a couple of europeean radio stations too –\u00a0rotationz.be<\/a>\u00a0and\u00a0novaradio.de<\/a>. i’m conscious that house doesn’t get much of a look-in on this blog, so this might go some way to redressing the balance… maybe? \ud83d\ude42 [site<\/a>]
\nTHE REVEREND MANAGERIE<\/strong> [US: PENNSYLVANIA]
\nplaytime relaps<\/strong>e\u00a0mp3<\/a>
\nhad an email from the\u00a0strangely familiar audio-sault<\/a>\u00a0crew inviting us to check out their site – so i duly recommend you do. it’s a community of bootleg \/ mash-up artists, with some well known names on there and a great selection of tracks to download. many of them i haven’t come across elsewhere, so it’s worth deeper investigation. i’ve no idea what original sources the above track was taken from, but its lack of familiarity makes it even more striking. for more info on the artist,\u00a0click here<\/a>.
\n
\n<\/a><\/strong>the\u00a0city slang<\/strong>\u00a0label (home to\u00a0radio 4<\/strong>,\u00a0calexico<\/strong>,\u00a0album leaf<\/strong>\u00a0and more) runs a monthly mp3 club – essentially a way of distributing free mp3s, with added data capture so they know who’s visiting. the selections are hit and miss, however this month they’ve chosen germany’s delightful\u00a0tonetraeger<\/strong>\u00a0– a dusseldorf folktronica duo who have roped in musicians from\u00a0kreidler<\/strong>\u00a0(to rococo rot<\/strong>\u00a0offshoot) and\u00a0tarwater<\/strong>\u00a0to assist with the new album. sign up to download\u00a0here<\/a>.
\nfollowing on from the recent bastard-pop version of\u00a0the clash<\/strong>‘s ‘london calling’, various mash-up artists have had a crack at\u00a0blur<\/strong>‘s ‘parklife’ with wildly varying results. the obligatory vocoder cover versions are there (have to say, getting a little bored of those now…) however there’s enough diversity to make most of us grin. check out the drum’n’bass rework of ‘end of a century’ or the splicing of blur and\u00a0the beach boys<\/strong>\u00a0on ‘godlife’.

\nalso a belated hello to kate from\u00a0red lotus radio<\/a>, a new addition to the blog community with posts from outside the usual locations, taking in japan, uzbekistan, italy, russia and more. kate was also the first blogger to alert me to the\u00a0bjork<\/strong>\u00a0teaser mp3 and for that i’ll be eternally grateful \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
