We are about busy on two new tracks at the moment, I will post as soon as we have anything done, we have made the tracks pretty, now we have to fuck them up and make them sinister...
Over and above this, we are FINALLY starting two remixes for Gosteffects and one for Nine Inch Nails.

Go here for an AWESOME Elite Force release:
'RVMPD2' sees the likes of Primal Scream, Miles Dyson, Basement Jaxx, Missy Elliot, Skrillex, Chemical Brothers, Thomas Bangalter, and Adele, respectfully torn to pieces by Elite Force, and cleverly stitched back together to form a unique dancefloor patchwork.

With such diverse names as Joss Stone, Etienne de Crecy, Freestylers, Nero, Benny Benassi, Flux Pavilion, Muse, and Daft Punk thrown into Elite Force's brilliantly unforgiving blender, 'RVMPD2' is an electronic music album like no other.

We will be giving you a FREE DOWNLOAD of each track from RVMPD2, one per week, every Tuesday upto the 19th June 2012. "Spread the word!"

Elite Force - RVMPD2

here's a bit of house from 21 year old producer LANCELOT (aka Lance Gurisik) from Sydney.






Dot Hacker has an awesome new EP imaginatively named Dot Hacker:


The music of Dot Hacker is architectural, built on a foundation of bold, manipulated tones and supported by lush eclectic textures and angular rhythm. The band’s enigmatic sound comes from the collaboration of friends and founding members, Josh Klinghoffer, Clint Walsh, Eric Gardner and Jonathan Hischke
“…a majestic four-song triumph reminiscent of the Cocteau Twins and the Jesus and Mary Chain…most are densely layered, lush productions that make you want to just sit back and listen.“- The Owl Mag

Ducky, aka Morgan Neiman, has released her new EP, The Whether, here is
Ducky - Overdose as a free download, what a nice girl she is!!!

NEW POST....AT LAST......

I have neglected you, oh my blog, I am not even going to begin going far back, suffice it to say, I am back.

It has been an insane few months and I have been working VERY hard together with the Deconstruction Crew to get things back on track. It has been a long and hard road but ultimately it will be VERY rewarding.

Here are some things that have recently graced my inbox I will endeavor to get more stuff out to you guys as QUICKLY as I can.

This is my good friend Jades sister who resides in Japan...AWESOME



Panama - Magic (Midnight Magic Remix)
  Panama is a Sydney-based five piece founded by, Jarrah McCleary, a classically trained pianist from the age of six who grew up in the sticky heat of the Northern Territory. They’re coming out with their self-released debut single “Magic” (…nothing less than Magic!) worldwide on March 2nd. The single includes two remixes from Midnight Magic and Gavin Russom (Crystal Ark) which sound absolutely brilliant.  Eric Broucek (DFA) mixed the tracks.
 
“Australia's really been whipping out the big guns lately with some artists on the rise. Sydney-based Panama is sure to be one of them.” – Filter

Lance Herbstrong x Queen - Dragon Attack

Through stream-of-consciousness aural atmospherics, Lance Herbstrong takes you on a trip, sustaining musical momentum with sonic layers propelling the rhythms. The result is music that is ethereal and organic, of the air and of the earth, and always moving. The nation’s most esteemed climate change scientists described their first Lance Herbstrong show as a ‘motherf---ing Fun Bomb that just goes off inside you.’
