Bird Man

Mr. Oizo's pseudonym purportedly is a corruption of the French Oiseau, meaning "bird". You may know know him for the production of many bangers for fellow Ed Rec label-mate, Uffie.

Quentin Dupiex is no one-trick pony, however. Known for the Levi ad campaign which featured cuddly creature "Flat Eric", Dupiex is an experienced producer as well as director and film-maker. Foreign language 'Steak' debuted in France in 2007 while his strange and quirky music videos never cease to surprise in their ingenuity and purposefully rakish movement and camera angles.

Black humor/horror "Rubber" was released in 2010, with the soundtrack (composed by Oizo himself and Gaspard of Justice) being released on the same month on Ed Banger Records.
Sporting a wide array of mixed reviews the movie is set to be release on Netflix for instant viewing on July 1st, 2011.

You should, like, totally watch it.

Tensnake Revisited

You might have seen Tensnake's video for the song 'Coma Cat'. The song is great; The video is even better. As one of the comments read on the video, 'Booze-stealing lesbians, doesn't get better than that'. Forgive me, I'm going to have to get used to simple html again before I can post in anything other than barely-readable elementary school-level prose.

Until then...

Enjoy these low-fi throwbacks to the early 80's...

Caetano ~ Haiti

I once had to write a paper about this song in an ethnomusicography course. Timely. And dope when recorded in studio thirty years ago.

Theophilus London

Although he looks a lot like Spoek Mathambo from last post... he isn't.

But I'd take a hefty wager that you had already guessed that.

The debut LP from Theophilus London drops on July the 19th. And it's gonna be ill. Czech it out here.

Thus spoke Spoek

We have talked about Spoek Mathambo, the South African self-proclaimed genre starter and fashionista who double-fists his two electro heavyweight bands - Sweat.X and Playdoe.

Anything he touches is bound to be full of heavy baselines and battery tasting. Be careful.


Sibot - WoW Bass feat. Spoek

Mexicans with Guns feat Cerebral Vortex and Spoek - Nuts and Bongos

Bear Island!

Good video of Basement Jaxxs' "My Turn"

Oh my, I get it.

So, I finally came across the official video for Uffie's "Pop the Glock," which was released, like, a millenia ago. The song is still great. Except now in a really girly way.

Still great video though. And this song could be played anywhere.

Quesadilla Castle

Great Harrison Schaff music video...

As always..

More Malente videos... In sweet, sweet HD quality.

Hyperactive

I was shocked to hear that one of my favorite electro artists of all time is just 19. Fellow Institubes (Surkin, Orgasmic, Curses!) and Parisian, Bobmo has created a really independent sound in his short walk on earth. Straight from his myspace:

"BOBMO is a young (17) producer hailing from the hyperactive city of Paris via the even more hyper city of Bordeaux. While in high school, with no musical training, he launched a short-lived rap career, making beats on his Playstation (no, really!), spitting awkward tales of murder and woe."

Sounds like a normal, goofy kid. But truly a men among electro boys, He travels Europe with the Ed Rec gang and fellow young Institubers, such as Surkin, touring the huge club scene there. You really must hear this. Incomparable.

Man, I want to produce on my Playstation..

Noise Porn

Malente has arguably the coolest website intro this guy has seen in awhile. This website lets you mix his songs together. Its pretty Sweet.

One Mane - Five Letters - PARTY

This is some seriously badddd bass. I have been sitting on this for a while, keeping these tasty bass treasures all to my self. The breakdowns are seriously sweaty and hardcore. Soo much fun in the club. I had the opportunity to drop these tracks a while back, and you cant help but bob your head... so... WHAT ARE YOU WAITING FOR!!??!?!?

More to Come..

Sorry about the looong no post, but I have been very busy and for some reason the blog has taken the blunt end of my priority list.

That being said, I have TONS to tell you guy, so expect more later today as I work tirelessly on getting everything organized.

In the mean time, watch this video while I get the rest of my Malente post ready.
