Omar-S is a bonafide badass/house god who gets ignored in his hometown of Detroit but draws enormous crowds over in Europe. I’m not gonna post any MP3s just cause I really respect the guy and he doesn’t sell enough records (though it’s arguable whether that would hurt or help, but I’m not gonna get into [...]

Redshape - Black dust [Present, 2007] (d/l)
A regular around here, Redshape is not the character to let us down. Reshape’s special and unique techno approach surfaces once again as winner material. This B side is a pure builder, that keeps on growing on you. Both as the tune progresses but also the more you listen [...]
I had great enjoyment in doing this mix,coming in at just under 55mins its nice and “kompakt” showcasing the freshest House and Techno highlights are all of the tracks if you ask me otherwise i wouldn’t put them on :-) Enjoy.

2 Sian - “Apple [...]
Laidback Luke - Housetrap - 2000 And One Remix - Size Records
Dont be put of by the artist as some of you may recognise him from putting out shoddy electro house.
Like the original of this track (If you have heard it you will release how much he has stripped it down) There’s a few [...]
Marc Romboy - The awakening [MTRCTY, 2007] (d/l)
Marc keeps on cranking out minimal tech-house snacks. This wet one goes straight to the heart. Omar S remix on the flip!
LCD Soundsystem has a heap of upcoming releases for you. They released a digital EP titled A Bunch Of Stuff on September 18 that has the Soulwax remix I posted earlier, a Carl Craig remix of ‘Sound of Silver’ (you can never go wrong with him), Franz Ferdinand covering ‘All My Friends’, a Gucci Soundsytem [...]
You can tell that dance music is the trend when all your favorite indie bands are being remixed and those songs are coming out better than the originals. The Decemberists released The Perfect Crime #2 EP today and it has superb remixes by Junior Boys, Diplo, and a Touch of Class. I never thought a [...]

Der Dritte Raum -”Trommelmaschine (Remixes)” -(Ricardo Villalobos Remix) -[Harthouse]
Continuing with some tracks which have got lost in the system this Der Dritte Raum Trommelmaschine (Remixes) is really nice im glad i came across it, released all the way back in 1996, still sounding so fresh and crisp. The Villalobos remix is a wonderfull summery drum [...]
Luciano & Quenum -”Orange Mistake” - [Cadenza]

With a new & great looking compilation http://www.residentadvisor.net/news.aspx?id=8871 from Luciano coming up this seem’s as good a time as any, its so good deep bubbly and laced in funk a proper funk excursion it tears the [...]
Monday. Sigh. Atleast I had a great, chill, weekend. I saw a wonderful movie from one of sweden’s finest directors: Roy Andersson. The film is called “Du levande“, not sure how well it works for non swedish viewers but consider this tragic comedy extremely recommended!
No music from me today, but check these posts out for [...]
Tracks To Buy
Kraftwerk - La forme (Hot chip’s king of the mountains mix) [EMI, 2007] (d/l)An undertaking so immense that just the thought of it would set any sane man on fire. Remixing Kraftwerk can be seen as either lionheart courage or plain old foolishness! I’m leaning towards the latter. Hot chip are clearly a bunch of [...]
Digitalism just put out another single of ‘Idealistic’ through Kitsune again 2 years later. I guess there have been a few more good remixes after the first release and after Idealism that they had to release it a second time. They also have an excellent new video for it - it is almost as [...]
