The Gossip — Heavy Cross (Siriusmo Remix)
Siriusmo did it again with a fantastic remix of “Heavy Cross” by The Gossip ; this is sirius-ly good. Sorry for the quality, it’s actually a radio rip, it’s not released yet.
Erkki Kurenniemi is one of the most important characters in the history of electronic music. He built his own series of synthesizers back in the early 60’s, named as DIMI, and published some of his experimental compositions like “Dance of the Antropoids”. He also did some early work on the field of Finnish media art and contributed to Finnish video art and happenings.
The Apartment is a 1960 absolutely brilliant darker-veined comedy, directed by Billy Wilder (Sunset Blvd.) starring Jack Lemmon (Some Like It Hot) and Shirley MacLaine (The Trouble With Harry). Essential viewing.
Chromatics — “In The City”
Heard this track on Nip/Tuck’s last episode, had to get it. Pretty old actually, about three years ago, but who cares, it’s dope.
The simple fact is SebastiAn is not a DJ. He is an artist that has to DJ because he can’t make any money from record releases, same as Mr Oizo.
Sebastien Tellier — “Pomme”
Sebastien’s voice sits perfectly over this smooth, downtempo track. You can have babies to this one.
