Scarlett Johansson recorded the song with Massive Attack

Massive Attack have collaborated with actor Scarlett johansson on the soundtrack of a Mexican forthcoming thriller. Dias de Gracia (grace period), directed by Everardo gout, also original music by Atticus Ross, Nick Cave and Warren Ellis and Shigeru Umebayashi has.
Dias de Gracia is a tale of murder and kidnapping of split across three separate scenarios, with different composers marking each narrative thread. Each segment took place during a World Cup of different final in 2002, 2006 and 2010.
Bad Seeds, Cave and Ellis scored the 2002 history after drop heard their work on the proposal and the assassination of Jesse James by the Coward Robert Ford. "They have created a piece that integrates superbly sounds, noises, urban environments and animals, which could only have been composed by them," said.
Ross, who won an Oscar in February for his work with Trent Reznor on the score of The Social Network, composed the soundtrack for the story of 2006. "He has worked on the feeling of apprehension for the most part," drop says, "something more visceral, more warm."
Umebayashi, a Japanese composer who has worked with Wong Kar - wai, wrote the "calm and sophisticated" music for the history of 2010.
The film uses also several versions of the classic jazz of George Gershwin, Summertime, performed by Janis Joplin and Nina Simone. The most unusual rendition is the last: a new approach to the standard of Johansson and Massive Attack of Bristol.

New group of the day - not 1,028: Laurel Halo

Hometown: Brooklyn.
Range: INA Cube (music, production).
Background: New artist of Friday featured in this column because it is a phenomenon of sale in some parts of the globe. Act today is here because the textures and tones in his music appear to reflect the ever-changing nature of phenomena and phenomena of nature. That which we are concerned, for reasons of biography, the other mesmerises due to the quality of its sound.
It is not to suggest that it is not a character interesting in its own right. far from it. An electronic composer of 25 years of Iggy Pop home town of Ann Arbor born the Cube of the Ina, she said that she took the name of Laurel Halo because he "reminds me of video gameand the infinite." And it's fun to have a pseudonym. As a child, she learned classical piano and spent time in various orchestras, ensembles of improvisation and noise groups - and you can say his latest EP, a collection of the evolution of sound landscapes which are about what you imagine That Jon Hassell of the Fourth World albums might look slow: a blur or blend of ambient and electronic air composition of avant-garde and fluidity jazz and rhythms that could also easily emanate from Africa as they could leave an unknown place in space.
It is not surprising that this former radio College freeform DJ - i.e., it plays free music on the waves, at College not engages in a strange process of changing shape – has a penchant for the Sci - Fi, and likes to make ideas in this area focus on his music. Why? Because in Sci - Fi "you are always presented with what is outside of your field of current vision - your cultural situation, and technological capabilities - and I like to think of what exists outside your range of vision".
If you think that Ms. Halo sounds a little on the cerebral side, we have to agree. Dating currently Mr. Brainy himself, Daniel Lopatin aka Oneohtrix Point never, she sees music in terms of forms - "domes, arches, webs" - and tells how innovative music exposure systems early Steve Reich "" totally shattered the concept of waiting in my head"." Elsewhere, she talks about the influence of all, of the Detroit techno "asymptotic quantification of memory". His songs are mainly instrumental and it whispers or vapour trails of voices tweaked or processed, leading some to compare the sound for the ghost of Kate Bush, but it is more my life in the Bush of ghosts.
The piece of opening on his EP, aquifer, is all polyrhythm CAD-style and Oneohtrix pan-desperately. It is music that reveals little by little, that opens before your eyes, leaving lasting impressions on your retina. Constant index could be the soundtrack of a futuristic film in which Tom Cruise runs by an assailant unknown cyber while reflecting to the female of the device, with which he is suddenly been thrown together. Head is seven minutes of static, drones and interference which suggests forward-voodoo of snowmobile 23 engulfed by a cloud of ash. Speed of rain is heavily percussive without being oppressive and has a hint of acoustics and a sherd of Symphony, such as beatings with a radio dial and briefly down on different stations. Finally, logical time communicates wonder and wondrousness with music that induces a Pacific State. Prepare for after-shocks and happiness.
Buzz: One of our favorite artists breakthrough of the year - factmag.com.
The truth: Think of oxygen for wired in Brooklyn.
Probably to: Mirage-like event horizon.
The least likely of: Make an ambient version of Search and Destroy.
What to buy: The logic of time EP is out June 21 hippos in tanks.

Your love by Frankie Knuckles: a song that will be to always be divaguée on
Try the exact appeal of a song of the nail is like taking a hammer to a frog. Of course, you splay its entrails and identify the individual bits that make it what it is, but why you would want to? Is never this metaphor daft truer than in the case of dance music, where the classics of the genre are supposed to transcend analysis nerd.
But sometimes a song has this power can define a type and a generation - surely that deserves more than just fleeting dancefloor glory? Goes so the story of Your Love by Frankie Knuckles, a track as an anthem for 1989 Summer of Love Britain, without wanting to go to influence a quarter century of pop music and culture of dance.
"The line of synth process that analog bassline thick, fat, it is one of the few Arias that captures the spirit of the acid house," said Nick DeCosemo, Chief Editor of Mixmag. "Many current producers search still return to her inspiration.". DeCosemo insists electronic music would not be the same without it. Dave Pearce, who has interviewed Knuckles for a special edition of 6Mix on BBC 6 Music last weekend, is in agreement. Pearce told me that this is not only misty-eyed rave nostalgia that gets him going, "it works because it manages to combine a spirituality soulful with a darker side, while being at the same time very sexual". Not bad for a track recorded for laughs unique Club house of Chicago, The Power Plant, with a box with rhythms borrowed from Derrick May and pal Jamie principle song roped in the DJ booth.
Knuckles, a New Yorker of 55 years, the name almost never appears in print without the words "Godfather of House" which precedes, even managed to pip icon of Chicago Oprah having a street bears his named in the city of windsso appreciated is its influence on the music scene. During this time, Dean of the daytime TV America was not until around this week before finally developed the honour with Oprah Way.
But it is not just me, DJ's club, and the Mayor of Chicago who remain hypnotized by the Knuckles back catalogue: Animal Collective sampled Your Love on my daughters while Friendly Fires on their EP of photomatons. And, well heard, the Source You Got for Candi Staton pursuant to joint of love and produced an even greater success (several times more), spawning additional covers of Florence and the Machine, the xx and, er, joss stone.
In short, pop music to your just love debt for these old enough not to have indulged the days of acid house (as opposed to the crowding of the box for the next episode of Fun house). Or if the track can be relegated to supporting the tanks negotiate 1990s pop. To paraphrase Pearce, its lifetime extends well beyond the usual dance music sell by date, in large part because "it is an exquisite folder, that you can lose really yourself." "It will be just live for ever".

Balance 19 DJ Mix CD last version in Spanish DJ, Henry Saiz

The Spanish producer of electronics, Henry saiz brings its unique formula to the series of mix estimated with an exciting name approach. Thanks to try to fill the creative space closer to that of an artist, rather than a club mix album, Henry gently created an Odyssey in the Strait.

As always, the selection of the runway is eclectic in its prospects, but has a feeling of precise tech-house which is tinged the influence of the House, melodic Techno, Disco and Detroit alongside the plethora of styles that Saiz uses for his musical motivation.

Chrissy Murderbot: the women's studies - review

Chicago DJ Chrissy Murderbot put in place a blog in 2009 called my year of Mixtapes to release a mixtape each week, covering all forms of his beloved as possible club music; He was also one of the main conduits by which scene juke in his town has gained international attention. Little surprise, then, that his own music cleverly draws on all of juke-out stretched synths and samples and rapidfire, stuttering beats early 1990s rave pianos and a sequence of dancehall guest MCs. compensating taste persistent eclecticism is the way it puts all these at the service of an overall aesthetic: in terms of dancefloor, women's studies is time of booty after the time of loot, Murderbot play its components off the coast of the other with a light, skilful hand reminiscent of Basement Jaxx. Bussine Down combines fluttering dancefloor with song blandishments, girly. bump Uglies, libidinal songs on the female form meet the coo sweet of a sample of Aaliyah; Warrior Queen leads the sexual energy to the guys on Nice Lookin ' Bwoy. It is a touch overfamiliar in places, but the women's studies is enthusiastic, cheerful and friendly man.

Holy Spirit! -Holy Spirit!
Calendar is not Holy-Spirit! "s strong. It is now three and a half since the beginning that unique Hold On has emerged as a delightful tingling electronica fusion and Italo-maison piano strings. If they had followed it puts a little more urgent that they could have led in recent years 80 electro revival, instead of being overtaken by some other duos MGMT and the Empire of the Sun. Not only that, but they are finally releasing their self-titled album the same week that James Murphy a reverence as LCD Soundsystem, the question of whether the duo can fill the void left by their boss of the label DFA beggingfriend and collaborator.
The answer to this question is, unfortunately, not really. Then that the Holy-Spirit! share the veneration of Murphy off kilter electro and disco conduct and often quite wonderful sound, that they lack of versatility and emotional depth that lifted from LCD Soundsystem over the hipster scene in NYC. It Again opens the album style, his synth pulse, low and crunchy beats shivers stage, suggesting the superb lovechild of Radio Ga Ga the Queen and Love Action of The Human League. but after the instant impact that sound, the album develops never really.
This is not to say that holy-spirit! is not pleasant. Alex Frankel and Nick Millhiser are obvious connoisseur of 1980s electro and more importantly have found a way to bring it to life in a way which makes fresh healthy and vibrant. Wait and See is a fizzy invention chiming cacophony total keyboard flourishes and flaring synthlines, which Frankel offers a playful song, flirty. It is largely Frankel that Saint-esprit!, for all their synthetic music and hipster credentials, warmer sound as they cool.
There are other titles that glow individually, too. The shuddering synths, whiplash bat and fainting falsettos is not more sound as the Pet Shop Boys Imperial peak, while Say My Name skilfully combines hypnotic melodies huskily and ringing pianos of the House. Unfortunately, more than 10 tracks, the limitations of music of the group become more and more obvious, with songs like Hold My Breath and jam for Jerry searching in the same box of retro schemes to reduce the effect.
Album of the other major problem is that Frankel vague object of girls and clubs and technical voice kind but restricted leave little to grip on as the glossy surface of the sound. Finally, Saint-esprit! supplies a feast of style, but he skimps on the merits.
Gang Gang Dance – Visual Contact
Kinds of scientists estimate that the average man uses only 90% of the potential of their brain. Gang Gang Dance, through their previous albums, have systematically explored the mysterious missing 10%, resulting in a single character which is not fully propel New Yorkers from the underground. A Visual Contact, album five and their first for 4AD, is unlikely that change - there is nothing that could be considered a single crossover. But take off safety catch, sling as stabilizers cancelled and immerse yourself in the beautiful depths and you could find a record to fall in love with several times.
On the contrary, the last LP of GGD, Saint Dymphna Warp out (United Kingdom), was their thrust towards commercial recognition. It includes a collaboration with Tinchy Stryder, above the current graph of the various rapper Brit dominance; and Hot Chip weighed in with a remix which could open more doors a few for the holding of this side of the Atlantic. But despite good reviews, the album and its makers appear destined to sit in the shade of love it pierced the same original singular way as Animal Collective. Visual contact could therefore be understood as something of a retreat from the field of commercial sensitivity, as it does with a track 12 minutes that Miss next to cover notable radio due to its length of opening. A shame: glass jar is magnificent, a masterpiece of spiral, sprawling mischievous melodies that their way of worm in depth, built from brilliant foundations and peak, surprisingly, too soon. It could last for an hour and be always so special.
The song of Liz Bougatsos click with everyone - as Karin Dreijer Andersson of the knife, aka Fever Ray, she manages to sound like the woman who fell on the ground, totally foreign but entirely beguiling that it compresses syllables in limited spaces left by his group. Together, they weave a soundtrack to the future parties, held on space stations revolves around the outer rings of Saturn. Little here seems to be connected with terrestrial movements; and when there is a flash of something of comfortably that, as the course adult Goth oriental and pulsations in the field of fair MindKilla, they are surrounded by the sounds of Bougatsos presence. Only the layers of Romance seems really born of this world, its neo-soul-goes-sci-fi strut distant cousin, distorted seductive tones of D'Angelo; or Grace Jones, the years of Star Trek.
Three incidental numbers expand what could otherwise seem to skimp on content, paper-based embedded processing: but even reduced to his "own" seven songs, it is one of the albums the most fascinating, exciting, original of the year. GGD examined in that, for almost any other artist, is the complete unknown to produce another together offering rich rewards to those who let it work its magic without reaching for the skip or shuffle button. Their relationship with corners of the skull that us do not regularly reach continues to produce remarkable results. Beam in stars and shows that floods in the responses.
Boxcutter - dissolve.
Despite us criticism continually trying to place them in ill-fitting boxes, the best "Dance" artists thrive on never allowing the listener to get a good handle on them - what to expect, and where a recording is going once it is started. This is true of Barry Lynn, alias Boxcutter, who chops countless influences into pieces before bite their spray at the top of his latest album. The final product is awash with intriguing reference points while simultaneously sounding rockets not quite like the work of any other Act. Dissolution is named after the video effect of fading an image in the next, and all this all along, we see the changing forms and of morphing their eyes, ears swimming synths and luxurious beats.
It could take from the dissolve after a handful of listening and call it blurry, incoherent. This is partially true - by jumping intensity to introspection, trails has led voice to instrumentals where the bottom of range rules Supreme (hello, parameter Factory), Lynn rather risk disrupting the stability of his most recent collection. But a part of the joy derived from fourth album of the Irish in the North is that the listener is always kept on their toes. And although all not exactly ready dancefloor frolics, as is the nature of the thing vaguely (yet) classified as IDM, many can find a home in the club and the car, soundtracking the night and the night in both.
Panama gives a deliciously tropical tone, coming as El Guincho mixture with The Invisible while Papua New Guinea from the Future Sound of London is pumped from the next room. The following Zabriskie Disco is completely different: noise deaf bass dub-level fumbles his way around a track meant synth supported and yet easy to handle slips, akin to the vibes summertime squelchy by Planet Mu of Lynn Oriol more. Singer Brian Greene appears three times, his best contributed to cutting to the delight of lo - fi is title-track of this record - more than any artist Panda bears are alongside Boxcutter in the records of dance/electronica. Greene returns the nearest Ufonik: G-funk, updated for the post-dubstep landscape.
He has a little disjointed, a little indulgent, but when the best beats Boxcutter connect with welcoming of synapses, the effect is as subcutaneous fizzy pop on a summer day: brilliant, brilliant, nervous and jovial. Holidaymakers, be sure to pack it next to your factor some and two for a pocket.
Africa-Tech-93 million Miles
Coming from the same Act, which pulled the frenzied unique policies, 93 million miles of could look like a surprisingly meditative album. Only if you don't already know, even if, on Mark Pritchard and Steve Spacek: the two producers making up the Africa-Tech. In forms such as Troubleman and Harmonic 313, Pritchard has always taken an idiosyncratic approach to a multitude of genres (funk, Afrobeat, hip hop and more). Spacek, meanwhile, has worked with the late J Dilla and was also one-third of the Group Spacek, which produces sexy, elegant soul - better heard on the album Curvatia in 2001.
HI-Tech Africa was still a project qualified to take you there. Policies of the leftfield, arrives a conscious intervention on UK grime. He said irascible energy of the genus, but it was more sophisticated SEO history dancehall intelligently any tweaking its riddled with bleep in a ragga classic exotic rhythms. Miles of 93 million at the beginning, underground club music is instantly moved further in the past, as the tracks in the vein of policies (Do U Wanna Fight, Glangslap) and a juke rework of Damian Marley Welcome to Jamrock (the streets) are sandwiched between the title song and our Luv, which integrate effortlessly grime tropes and the kind of production mesmeric perfected by classic Detroit techno outfits Underground Resistance and Drexciya.
The progresses of strain source Drexciya in hypnotism echo in footprint, while that dynamic grime is waived in African spirit, light the way and cyclic Sun for beats more traditional, jazzy instrumentals in which dance in circles of trance. The effect of all feels like a spiritual journey through dance and techno to the soul of Africa, finding y with the gentle Don't fight it.
HI-Tech of Africa have themselves described as being on an "ism", an African connection between rhythmic and the machine. Race across what they do is an atmosphere that exceeds the kind, a captivating fusion of musical sensibilities Pritchard and the Spacek.
Daedelus - custom
Daedelus, aka Alfred Darlington, says the title of this new collection, optimistic Ninja Tune 2008 terrifying track Love to make music at: "I have not only intended as a reflection of the LP itself, but also a look at life". Deep dude. But one may be the obsession of Darlington with the mode archaic Victorian side in the evaluation of this 11-track set - also, like previous long-players from the producer in Los Angeles, is a collection of repositioning of the future that complete the best of today with the sounds from a chart about you around 2014. It is tailor-made, indeed, for a variety of dance request more than today, in a style that some artists are capable of.
The most striking development is the use of not less than seven invited singers, whose wildly different techniques should lead to a final product that is disjointed at the ridiculous. While Darlington allowed singers in the studio in the past, it never skipped by Inara George Bilal, via bath, on the same LP. But any fears of disharmony from track to track are expressed in the wind once the album has run its course for the first time: it's sublime fare, and the singers are used on cuts that respond best to their own methods. Bathroom - alias resident Will Wiesenfeld of his colleague the - therefore appears through the beating of GH-echo slippery French cuffs, that manages to be urgent chilled yet simultaneously without space time by train to implode. and Bilal depends on the upset wonderfully flawed loans soulful tones on a runway with Eastern-tinged percussion that might be the work of Skream if he grew up in Chennai than Croydon.
The instrumentals are suffering for the quality of the voice work around them - well that slightly of the form, in General, they are essential to the flow of a LP which hold together surprisingly well as a complete listening, despite its myriad constituents. Sewing, Darn, Mend and costume yourself, entitled clear to adjust the theme of the record, are numbers brilliant which skitter and slide as the best work of this talented beat-crafter. previous funky coda, the latter is one of the many surprises of the registration, a small bonus in several offers already sumptuous treat. In short, then: another fantastically enjoyable album of an artist whose modus operandi, above anything else, seems to be ensuring the audience is having the best possible time. Good self-absorbed even number should take note.
Audio runner: back in the Studio
It is well past midnight and while most people than Gerritt Tisdale sleep works feverishly mixdown on the last song of the year for electronic music group, he founded Audio Runner. A collection of three high school friends, Audio Runner is quickly made a name for the creation of amazing music and marketing by the bias of the internet and social media.
The quality of the music made by Runner Audio leave you convinced that it is produced in a studio of several million dollars. You'd be surprised (I was) to find that this huge sound is created in a laboratory of tiny music with just enough room for the three musicians and their computers, laptops, keyboards, 2 microphones and small rack of tiny lights blinking of the eyes and the switches. At first glance, this "studio", it is not so impressive, but when these guys are working, the Audio runner machine is something to see. Electronic music, never perhaps even once more.
Gerritt Tisdale, Ryan Daniel and Andy Gonzalez all love music. It is also simple. The plan for any song Audio Runner is that it must be "good". There are no limits, there are no rules, and the only hope is that quality must be top notch. To watch the trio in action would be something to see if you could somehow accelerate as old film of the 20′s. At one point, someone is on guitar and then keyboard then the microphone, then on the computer and then return to the guitar, then all three sit and listen for a minute so that the process starts all over again. You get the idea.
Unlike most artists, Runner Audio does not focus on assemble an album then release to their fans in full growth. Instead, they begin each month with some ideas, he whittle until an idea then will focus on writing, recording and produce a song a month. This means at the end or beginning of each month, they have something new. It is also part of their marketing strategy social media. A way to maintain a fresh buzz and keep their fans involved. Along the way, fans are entertained by updates status (via twitter and facebook) on how the new song comes along, they are able to see works of art for the new single and the sense of being part of the action as Audio Runner frequently posting videos of the song on their chain production process YouTube (youtube.com/audiorunnertv). When it comes to the use of social media on the market of their music, these guys really "get it". Oh, I did mention that they give always their music away for free on its Web site? You can download in directly from www.audio-runner.com
Most of the lyrics is written by Gerritt and Andy. Andy Gonzalez is a former underground hip-hop artist who finds himself trapped by the unique size of hip-hop music. "" I grew up playing guitar and learning the songs of Led Zeppelin, "he said" drums, piano, trumpet... all that. I love music, hip-hop and all poetry and rhyme intrigues, but I always felt that I could do much more. I hooked back up with Gerritt and Ryan and is like a breath of fresh air after being underwater for 5 years. "It was magical." Gerritt accepts, he began too faced with feeling frustrated only to hip-hop music. "I did hip-hop beats for almost a decade," Gerritt smiles when he speaks "and at one point, that I felt as I did step do for me anymore." So I stop to music…took a break. A few months later, sitting across from the computer and production started on something fun. It is a dance floor and after it has been done, I was like "whew…". "Ryan called me out of the blue a few days later and the rest is history. ?
On most songs, you will hear the singing voices airy, Gerritt soulful along to the music of the Audio runner. Even though he admits that he is not the best singer he also fails to give themselves enough credit. Its song is more than enough, and sometimes it is just perfect. However, there are times that some "lyrical acrobatics on the mic" (as Andy) are in order and Andy is more than happy fulfil this role. Don't let the fact that this guy has waived an idiot of career hip hop underground promising you. He meets his namesake creater Word Perfect and is quite the Acrobat on the microphone.
For all the combined talent of writing and to build a song Audio Runner, nothing gets final approval until it runs past the ears trained Ryan Daniel. A true engineer, it is a Gerritt and Andy reporter at when the internal music needs a tune up professional. Although you can find to give its contribution during the phases of writing and the nodding frequent approval, his talent and skill as sound engineer is his piece of the puzzle Runner Audio and probably the most important.
Audio Runner is Texas's best kept secrets, when talking about electronic music. They are a secret for the moment, but there are great things and big plans on the horizon for Audio Runner in 2011. With some podcasts, an album with all versions of 2010, their first show living and a fan of base that grows from a few hundred a month, it won't take long, until you find these guys being spoken in the same breath as Deadmau5 and Daft Punk. Andy said, "Runner Audio for life" and I could not agree.

Steve Lawler needs no introduction, however, he is going to recieve a standing ovation with some Salsa and Merenge from me, as he is set to release ‘Lights Out – Decade’ on 28th May to celebrate the 10th Anniversary of its inception, the fourth instalment of his revered mix series, this time on his own VIVa MUSiC imprint.? Comprised of a series of exclusive releases and Lawler re-edits, ‘Decade’ is an exercise in artistic excellence, and confirms Steve Lawler as an artist still at the forefront of the electronic music scene.
The depth and diversity of the electronic sounds are exceptional, with many of the tracks ’screaming at ya’ with contagious beats and rhythm, whilst the MUSiCa Magican immediately seduces the listener to dance wherever they may be. The outrageously sensual and sassy, lights on or out Livio & Roby – Moduri definitely has the Pavlov’s Dogs affect and will have you salivating all the way to the dance floor.
Latino vibes are the order of the day for the brilliant Ray Roc & Gabe Ramos – Your Soul. I dare you not to whistle to the mighty powerful and deeply mesmerising Steve Nash – Safari Der Bunten Vogel, this track had me dancing non stop all the way to the coffee pot; I was unshamedly and deeply content with the kitchen dance party vibez, as the music dictated the moves.
Be prepared for some regression therapy with the excellent Frivolous – Ostalgia, the chimes will be incredibly comforting for those who had a musical trinket box as a child.
Christopher Groove Vs Brothers Vibe – Juan Pachanga (El Baile) Remix had me dashing to the bathroom for a cold shower. The Latino dance vibe combined with the exquisite male vocal, will have every person who appreciates the beauty and perfection of the sexy and emotive male vocal, begging for more!
As an artist, Steve Lawler’s releases and remixes have been signed by some of the worlds most established recording labels; R&S Records, Systematic, Drumcode, Harthouse, Cocoon, MBF, OVUM, Sci+Tec, Tsuba, Souvenir, Rekids, Boxer Sport, Be As One, Monique, Kostbar, Soma, Skint and of course his own recording label VIVa MUSiC.
Steve Lawler will no doubt take immense pride in this release being truly unique. The track selection features a series of exclusive releases, with many being subjected to the tried and tested Lawler re-editing process. This, explains Lawler, is an approach that will make the release a unique listening experience.
“In this day and age, a mix compilation needs to be special in some way, as DJ mixes are freely available all over the internet. So my plan was to have as many tracks as possible exclusive to this album, being released no-where else but here. That along with every single track being re-edited or re-arranged makes this in some ways more than just a mix compilation.
I want my fans to get a mix of tracks that are unique to its own arrangement and composition… when you buy the tracks as singles people will get the original version of the track which in some cases may sound very different. Only with the version on this mix will they get my re-arranged versions – this is, and always has been, the tradition of my Lights Out albums” – Steve Lawler
And with a tracklisting that features some of the finest established and upcoming producers, it is apparent that Steve Lawler has his finger on the pulse today, as much as he did with each of the preceeding ‘Lights Out’ mixes.
Another Noteworthy highlight is Davide Squillace’s remix of Audiofly’s track ‘Fela’ with it’s dark hypnotic vocals and chugging rhythm.
Steve also employs fellow groove assassins The Martinez Brothers with there track ‘Issshhh’.
A fantastically thought out and well rounded mix compilation from one of the scenes leading lights. So make sure you turn off the lights, and enjoy in the ambience in which it’s creator intended…

What I listen to: Alexis Taylor

I love it as well for the song as for beautiful, fluid guitar lines which open it. A wonderful record.
It's an old house tune I listen a lot. It has a spiritual transcendence in this regard. Very edifying.
It is the Mingus plays Piano, an entire album of piano improvisations and compositions tomb. The song, as the album, is very nice - full of melody and sadness.
The title song of my discovery of the favorite album of recent years. This English-language of registration by an Italian artist has a sort of clumsy, but also a poetic beauty which is really quite surprising. Parts of synths are gorgeous, too.
This ballad, written by R. Kelly, is full of inverse and alternative meaning depending on whether you take the perspective of Kelly R or Whitney. The fabric of the ambiguity of the great songwriting.
On the album of the group, start and complete, is out now

The psychedelic trance music culture first gained momentum in the UK during the mid-1990s, and it has since expanded to many other countries that host their own dance festivals for devoted fans of this unique genre. Psychedelic music creators layer instrumental melodies over fast-paced, repeating riffs.
They then combine these with various rhythms that result in a style that differs from other forms of electronic music such as industrial or techno.
Various DJs and artists have contributed their own musical signatures to psychedelic trance, which has helped to create sub-genres including dark, techno, and progressive forms of this music. Fans interested in hearing new psychedelic sounds have plenty of choices when it comes to attending an electronic music festival.
This festival takes place in Western Victoria, Australia during the Southern Hemisphere summer. The 2011 Rainbow Serpent was held from January 21st to the 24th in Melbourne. Ticket prices range from $165 to $225 and grant access to all events and performances over the four days of the festival. While Rainbow Serpent has not previously sold out, it does have a limited capacity of roughly 9,000 to 10,000 people. Tickets can be purchased online or at a few different local Australia retailers a couple of months prior to the festival.
The Rainbow Serpent Festival is not only an electronic music festival; it is also a showcase for visual and performance artists as well as for holistic arts such as yoga, massage, and meditation. A popular feature of the festival is the Lifestyle Village, where visitors can participate in workshops teaching creative art therapy, dance, Qi Gong, and much more.
Psychedelic trance music performances at the Rainbow Serpent Festival take place on a main stage and several secondary stages. The festival’s website has a list of performers with their scheduled times on stage so fans can know when to catch their favorites. The main dance area is called The Playground, which is one of the places to see and be seen at this dynamic festival.

Performance artists also have opportunities to perform at various times throughout the Sonica Festival.
The healing arts are an additional feature at Sonica; guests have chances to enjoy massages, meditation classes, and yoga seminars. Ecology is a focus of this festival, with workshops dedicated to reducing environmental impact and enjoying green living.

Keeping with the spirit of the lakeside surroundings, the psychedelic music at the BOOM Festival often leans toward ambient and easier grooves. Indeed, there is even a dance floor section called the Groovy Beach floor. The focus of the BOOM Festival is to create greater connections between mind, body, and spirit through dancing in large groups for an extended time. Many participants report greater non-verbal connections with others through this practice as well.
