Category: all over the place
I’ve been sitting on this mix for a little while now. I just keep getting pulled back into it. I’d go as far as to say it’s redefining the music I follow and play. Jubilee is a young turk from Brooklyn who is building up a reputation for serving up some of the rawest beats [...]

I’ve had this category called ‘all over the place’ on this blog for a while… finally I’ve found the perfect subject matter. Last night at Benders for the opening of Noisepop, our man Har Mar was not just ‘all over the place’, but quite simply all in our face (one of our friends narrowly missed [...]
you know the year has flown by when you have to check the song to make sure it’s the right year…saying that it’s been a great year for good music not to mention decade (ooh that might mean another compilation to follow!!). SXSW 09 really set the tone for the year so much that we [...]

I’m over a week into 2010, but here is my best of 2009. I have seen about 80% of the groups on this play list, and the hope is to see the rest in 2010. My highlights would be The XX and Yacht. Notable omissions for ‘09 would be the Silversun Pickups, Muse, the bay [...]

So, this mix started some months back under the glow of an Indian summer. Finally it sees the light of day – just in time for what these Americans call The Holidays. I’ve been digging back into the past with wisps of drum and bass and old skool trance (303 workouts), mixed up with some [...]

I recently learnt to record music on the internet with this free (and legal) sound recorder: http://applian.com/sound-recorder/. If you download the toolbar you can simply record any streamed music online and save it as an mp3 file. Thanks for the tip Mr Galvin – very nifty. So here’s a bunch of bands I’ve been meaning [...]

…I sat down to compile another northernlights. Quite a few tracks are from bands on Finnish record label Fonal records. If you want to hear more of TV-Resistori, Eleanoora Rosenholm and Risto, as well as loads of other new Finnish stuff, there is an electronic jukebox available on the Fonal website at http://www.fonal.com/news.php. Just be [...]

After an hour with Dan Deacon it’s easy to forget which way up is normal. This guy just does not follow the rules. Don’t believe me? Just look at this blatant disregard of the way things work on the indie/dance/rock scene: Rule #1 Let someone else build your stage. Following the support acts, a crowd [...]
This time Harry Covert picks up the reigns for the latest in the Best of the Blogs series. Keeping things on a more chilled plane than Kiterae’s offering, this mix is part indie, part hip hop, part Xmas eulogy.Sorry, I’m afraid I couldn’t track down all the original links for these tracks, but take my [...]
