!!!After topping numerous "Single of The Year" polls with the classic Me and Giuliani... single, !!! ("Chk Chk Chk") have now finished their album, and are mixing it down in the studio as we speak. Their sold-out London gig in December turned into a sweaty rave up and next day had the press excitedly comparing them to the Mondays and Trouble Funk amongst others...Reviews on Dotmusic and Playlouder Boards of CanadaBoards will have a new album out this year, no news yet from Hexagon Sun about what we can expect... To tide us over, Boards of Canada have remixed Mush Records' trio cLOUDDEAD on their new single "Dead Dogs 2"New London Sinfonietta CollaborationsThe London Sinfonietta started 'a quiet musical revolution' when they joined forces with Warp and sold out the Royal Festival Hall during 2003's Ether festival.

The show consists of performances of work by Antheil, Aphex Twin, John Cage, Jamie Lidell, Steve Reich, Squarepusher, Varèse, with rare Warp videos and visuals by Fernand Lèger, Chris Cunningham, Flat-E and Bluespoon.

We advise booking now!Ether 2004The world-class Ether festival returns to London's South Bank during March.

Luke Vibert: Kerrier District (Rephlex)After last year's Amen Andrews and YosepH, Luke's latest project finds him in lush analog disco-house mode, 3 discs of Vibert magic and warm bottom-end fatness. Out now.Lost in Translation'Tommib' by Squarepusher (taken from Go Plastic) features on the soundtrack to Sofia Coppola's latest, Lost in Translation. The album also features 4 new pieces from My Bloody Valentine genius Kevin Shields, and has just been nominated for a BAFTA for best soundtrack.Squarepusher Remixes on Ninja Tune CompilationSquarepusher again(!), and Ninja Tune's newest compendium includes his legendary and ace remixes of DJ Food and East Flatbush Project, amongst other reworks by Luke Vibert, Four Tet, Manitoba and many more. Recommended.Lex-related cut and splice mayhemThought that bootleg mania was well and truly over? Think again, as DJ Dangermouse (the DM in your DM & Jemini) has successfully melded the full vocal content of Jay-Z's Black Album with new beats and production entirely made using the Beatles White Album as the source. The resulting Grey Album is nothing to do with Lex Records and unlikely to be available in your local Woolworths, but keep an eye out for it this spring.Continuing the mashup theme, prepare for Richard X's enormous rework of Prince Po's Hold Dat, incorporating a big bleepy chunk of an old school Nightmares on Wax classic. Released April 8th on Lex. Thanks to the Apple centres in Manchester and London for their help with Bleep. Kleber and tDR for build and design. |
