classic track. sure, speculation into this illusive producer's identity may have helped the HUGE hype surrounding it, but it's definately not misplaced. the combination of retro synths and heavy, grinding bass offer something for everyone. and did i mention, it's HUGE! --- to be featured on playlists from Johannesburg to Vladivostok!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a

GREENS...AND YOUR WHITES (geddit..?)&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;NoOO!!!! exam season is starting (next week!) and so now the revision and  stress levels are properly kicking in...nice. but how to deal with this perennial nightmare? some &lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;experts&lt;/span&gt; suggest that ensuring a healthy diet, taking regular exercise, getting enough sleep and undertaking special breathing techniques are, amongst other things, the best ways of ensuring a stress-free examination period. but i'm not so sure...i've come up with my own kind of full-on, musical, self-affronting therapy. right here, right now. so, here we go..this could go badly wrong...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;these are the tracks which i feel represent my mental state and are my own efforts to deal with my current crap-o situation/make me forget about it entirely. in five simple steps. WISH ME LUCK!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;n&lt;/span&gt;umber 1.&lt;/span&gt; the &lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;Faex&lt;/span&gt; rework: how my brain feels after reading about stalin's five-year fucking plans for about the five-hundredth fucking time. i almost feel as though my own individual welfare has been compromised  for unrelentingly rapid heavy industrial growth on a national scale in order to compete with potential external/western threats (breathe in)..but that's &lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;actually&lt;/span&gt; bullshit. SLAM! -&gt; to the track...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.zshare.net/audio/16268582e0ba4130/"&gt;SebastiAn - Head/Off (Faex Rework)&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;n&lt;/span&gt;umber 2.&lt;/span&gt; manic, confused, jumpy, a little bit australian: that's exactly how i'm feeling. &lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;exactly&lt;/span&gt;.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.zshare.net/audio/162678594cdf92e3/"&gt;AC/DC - Thunderstruck (Crookers Remix)&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;n&lt;/span&gt;umber 3.&lt;/span&gt; "We'll send you trippin'..trippin'.." enough said, Mr Lavelle. but it's not because this is actually another awesome track touched and tastefully soiled by the almighty &lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;Fake Blood &lt;/span&gt;- new godfather of the dancefloor. i think i possibly definately maybe want him to be my own actual dad. is that so wrong?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.zshare.net/audio/162667017b9aa74a/"&gt;UNKLE - Restless (Fake Blood Remix)&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;n&lt;/span&gt;umber 4.&lt;/span&gt; enter Fake Blood's neanderthal, &lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;Atari&lt;/span&gt;-obsessed cousin, &lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;Boy 8-Bit&lt;/span&gt;. this one takes a while to build up, but when it hits climax, well, it really does: the calm before the tribal african/latin american dubbed-out baile storm. wow..that made no sense at all. although, when i listen to it, i do get images flashing through my mind of spears and masks..but less like, say, traditional african battle masks and more like the masks of ancient greek theatre. strange. and i &lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;like it&lt;/span&gt;.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.zshare.net/audio/16266070178d029b/"&gt;Boy 8-Bit - Fog Bank&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;n&lt;/span&gt;umber 5.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;  &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;i feel this next track represents&lt;/span&gt; my spiralling descent through the concentric circles of my own personal exam hell. but that sounds so negative - and it is. but, actually, this is quite a cool tune                  ...almost as cool (and catchy) as its name....                take a peek, why don't you.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.zshare.net/audio/16265632720ed23f/"&gt;Giko - Asshole (Facteur Remix)&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;thinking about it, i now also feel like said 'asshole' for having left the majority of my work to the last minute, and now for procrastinating further by making this post. i don't think this &lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;therapy&lt;/span&gt; has worked. i don't think it's worked at all. shame. i feel worse. maybe i should go for a jog, eat some fruit and hyperventilate profusely..hopefully resulting in some sort of faintage/surprise 'nap'...that'll fix it...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:85%;"&gt;ANXIETY KICKER&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.zshare.net/audio/16269028728073ff/"&gt;Don Rimini - Nervous Breakdown&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:85%;"&gt;------------------------------------------------------------------------&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4962499360503506833-4939361237652050278?l=printed-in-gold.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://printed-in-gold.blogspot.com/feeds/4939361237652050278/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=4962499360503506833&amp;postID=4939361237652050278&amp;isPopup=true' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4962499360503506833/posts/default/4939361237652050278'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4962499360503506833/posts/default/4939361237652050278'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://printed-in-gold.blogspot.com/2008/06/coping-with-exam-stress.html' title='Coping with exam stress.'/><author><name>enrico</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/11724724481269935569</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='17' height='32' src='http://bp3.blogger.com/_U8TCvaovkAY/SI87p4374II/AAAAAAAAABs/KHl_IhAJbbs/S220/boing7smallcopy_edited-10.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4962499360503506833.post-9103750910639255963</id><published>2008-05-26T21:42:00.025+01:00</published><updated>2008-07-31T02:40:25.445+01:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='the bloody beetroots'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='streetlife djs'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='thomas bangalter'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='jape'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='bobmo'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='dj mehdi'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='chewy chocolate cookies'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='plastic operator'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='naive new beaters'/><title type='text'>Life goes on even when the banks are closed.</title><content type='html'>&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;img src="http://www.mattwrightpr.com/wp-content/uploads/2007/10/sorry_we_are_closed_b1.jpg" /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p&gt;YAAYYY!! It's Bank Holiday Monday today and what does that mean? yes, that's right, revel in the unexpected sensation of joy as you wake up and realise...you can stay right where you are...unless, of course, you're in some compromising position, as you could well be on this monday of a long weekend. i suggest get yourself outta there - and these are the tunes that'll get you up and moving with a spring in your step. but what is is mainly that these tracks represent for me? it's just that instant of surprise holiday euphoria. enjoyjoy!&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Streetlife DJs &lt;/strong&gt;have long held a place in my mental list of essential artists and production teams. But, this had been based mainly on their punchy live sets and explosive remixes - NICE. Here, they take to spawning their own track of sorts. Ripping off the classic &lt;em&gt;Peter Gunn&lt;/em&gt; riff (as famously used to open 2ManyDJ's' classic mixtape, &lt;em&gt;As Heard On Radio Soulwax Part 2&lt;/em&gt;)  the London-based duo mutate this central premise into mind-numbing electro-rave at its finest. Oh yeah, and it's called &lt;em&gt;Gunn Crime&lt;/em&gt; - nice pun, guys...!&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.zshare.net/audio/16192063ee773487/"&gt;Streetlife DJs - Gunn Crime (Original Mix)&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Chewy Chocolate Cookies&lt;/strong&gt; lend their disco-insanity to electropoppers &lt;strong&gt;Plastic Operator&lt;/strong&gt;, creating this absolute monster of a track. constantly teetering towards destruction, when this track blows up you can't help but go insane with them.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.zshare.net/audio/161911961fa14a83/"&gt;Plastic Operator - Home 0207 (Chewy Chocolate Cookies Remix)&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;torn apart by &lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;The Bloody Beetroots&lt;/span&gt;,&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt; Naive New Beaters&lt;/span&gt;' &lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;Live Good&lt;/span&gt; is given a typically forceful bassline which rams its way into your ears. overhead, the undulating synth sets the tone: that of exhilaration, euphoria and elation.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.zshare.net/audio/161916576d6c2790/"&gt;Naive New Beaters - Live Good (The Bloody Beetroots Remix)&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="text-decoration: underline;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;Bobmo&lt;/span&gt;'s 90s feel is given to this classic &lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;Jape&lt;/span&gt; tune. the irishman's vocals seem to search for place amdist Bobmo's conceived rhythm. but when they do settle, that's not the end of things - cue a retro-tinged eruption of 'BEAT'...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="text-decoration: underline;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.zshare.net/audio/16188866ff8e6d01/"&gt;Jape - Floating (Bobmo Remix)&lt;/a&gt; &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;this track just has that 'classic' sound. i don't know why and i don't know what it is, but i find this sound almost life-affirming. perfect for that extra day you never thought you had.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.zshare.net/audio/1619829247cec960/"&gt;DJ Mehdi - Signatune (Thomas Bangalter Edit)&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:85%;"&gt;MONEY IN THE BANK&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.zshare.net/audio/16198891f62e71e3/"&gt;The Chemical Brothers - Elektrobank&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:85%;"&gt;------------------------------------------------------------------------&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4962499360503506833-9103750910639255963?l=printed-in-gold.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://printed-in-gold.blogspot.com/feeds/9103750910639255963/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=4962499360503506833&amp;postID=9103750910639255963&amp;isPopup=true' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4962499360503506833/posts/default/9103750910639255963'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4962499360503506833/posts/default/9103750910639255963'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://printed-in-gold.blogspot.com/2008/05/life-goes-on-when-banks-are-closed.html' title='Life goes on even when the banks are closed.'/><author><name>enrico</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/11724724481269935569</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='17' height='32' src='http://bp3.blogger.com/_U8TCvaovkAY/SI87p4374II/AAAAAAAAABs/KHl_IhAJbbs/S220/boing7smallcopy_edited-10.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4962499360503506833.post-487027446431686226</id><published>2008-05-25T12:24:00.023+01:00</published><updated>2008-07-30T18:17:53.190+01:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='simian mobile disco'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='joakim'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='coki'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='benga'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='radio slave'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='franky rizardo'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='lindstrøm'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='sweetlight'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='chaim'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='midnight juggernauts'/><title type='text'>Sundays in SP_CE.</title><content type='html'>&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;

and &lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;The Shoes&lt;/span&gt;.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Yuksek seems to have emerged at the forefront of this new, young talent and he's showing them by example. this track from his 2007 &lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;It Comes&lt;/span&gt; EP is one of my favourites. an alluring first half paves the way for around three final minutes of mayhem. not to be missed.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.zshare.net/audio/16130681c9d2f95b/"&gt;Yuksek - Kontraul&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Yuksek's also a master on remix duty. here's his latest warped, relentless offering for bordeaux project &lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;Adam Kesher&lt;/span&gt;.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.zshare.net/audio/161326288ae635e5/"&gt;Adam Kesher - Feel You In My Arms (Yuksek Remix)&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Yuksek's sparring partner, &lt;span&gt;Brodinksi&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;, &lt;/span&gt;seems to be getting better and better. having released his well-supported track in &lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;Bad Runner&lt;/span&gt;, the young producer and DJ has now been releasing a string of great remixes. his disctinctive minimal edge works wonders on &lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;D.I.M.&lt;/span&gt;'s stomper, &lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;Is You&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span&gt;,&lt;/span&gt;

have been showing up quite a lot recently, and this joint remix venture between Yuksek and Brodinski doesn't disappoint. i like how in these remixes you can always tell which are the Yuksek elements and which are the Brodinski ones. and together, they can create a whole lot more.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.zshare.net/audio/16131738420d9a14/"&gt;Alphabeat - 10.000 Nights (Yuksek &amp;amp; Brodinski Remix)&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;The Shoes&lt;/span&gt; seem to have been getting a lot of hype recently as well. and i can see why: all of their tracks and remixes are filled with a kind of youthful energy which is just plain fun at its best. here, Brodinksi takes the reins of their bonafied hit &lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;America&lt;/span&gt;, sampling the voice track and adding a bassline which is beyond insane whilst being cheekily minimal.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.zshare.net/audio/1613241503dd2234/"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The Shoes - America (Brodinski Remix)&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;london grime posterboy &lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;Wiley &lt;/span&gt;now gets the Shoes treatment, turning a track which i didn't think was anything special into something which can really get me moving. the remix begins with a bouncy drumline thundering under Wiley's vocals before a wonky bassline is unleashed, carrying the rest of the track to whole new heights.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.zshare.net/audio/16132131c40f56ab/"&gt;Wiley - Wearing My Rolex (The Shoes Remix)&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:85%;"&gt;CHAMPAGNE PAYOUT&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.zshare.net/audio/16132950369bb19a/"&gt;Oasis - Champagne Supernova&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:85%;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:85%;"&gt;------------------------------------------------------------------------&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4962499360503506833-7989820729430147861?l=printed-in-gold.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://printed-in-gold.blogspot.com/feeds/7989820729430147861/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=4962499360503506833&amp;postID=7989820729430147861&amp;isPopup=true' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4962499360503506833/posts/default/7989820729430147861'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4962499360503506833/posts/default/7989820729430147861'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://printed-in-gold.blogspot.com/2008/05/rmois-explosion-of-talent.html' title='A Rémois Explosion (of talent...)'/><author><name>enrico</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/11724724481269935569</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='17' height='32' src='http://bp3.blogger.com/_U8TCvaovkAY/SI87p4374II/AAAAAAAAABs/KHl_IhAJbbs/S220/boing7smallcopy_edited-10.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4962499360503506833.post-6986306975876549101</id><published>2008-05-20T19:52:00.017+01:00</published><updated>2008-07-28T22:30:25.597+01:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='shy child'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='jokers of the scene'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='buraka som sistema'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='crookers'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='bonde do rolê'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='radioclit'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='mixhell'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='azzido da bass'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='mercedes sosa'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='alphabeat'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='dj blaqstarr'/><title type='text'>Favela Blast!!</title><content type='html'>&lt;div&gt;

Walter Gropius and his followers are attributed with changing many of the existing preconceptions in european and world architecture, art and ceramics by extolling themes such as &lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;simplicity&lt;/span&gt;, &lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;clarity&lt;/span&gt; and, above all, &lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;functionalism&lt;/span&gt; in their finished pieces and ideas.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;with this in mind, perhaps exacerbated by the increasingly dank and heavy weather, my mind and my music taste has been wandering into the realms of the clear, linear dance rhythm. where better to look then than the homeland of the Bauhaus movement itself: germany?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;for the purposes of this investigation, i have turned to the dream team that is &lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;PUZIQUe&lt;/span&gt; (&lt;a href="http://www.myspace.com/puzique"&gt;www.myspace.com/&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;puzique&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;), made up of &lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;Printed In Gold&lt;/span&gt; favourites Alex Ridha (Boys Noize) and Andi Mead (D.I.M.). their sound fits all the hallmarks of the &lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;bauhaus&lt;/span&gt; movement: deceptive simplicity, understated clarity, BUT, most of all, it serves its function - to get people dancing.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:180%;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;THOMAS&lt;/span&gt; EP&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;img src="http://i225.photobucket.com/albums/dd300/enricotassi/puziquethomas.jpg" /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:85%;"&gt;(c) 2006, Boysnoize Records&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;the tracks on PUZIQUe's first EP, &lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;Thomas&lt;/span&gt; (2006) contain all the raw power of their two producers respectively, but the energy levels have been compressed and contained somewhat to create these three tittalising bundles of potential kinetic energy. ENJOY!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;Thomas&lt;/span&gt;, as the name suggests, is something of a tribute to the output of the legendary &lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;Thomas Bangalter&lt;/span&gt;, with that hi-hat drumline reminiscent of the one found on TB's own&lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;

doesn't seem too bad for two guys with such heavy schedules, who would probably have to take time out just to meet, let alone sit down and produce sweet sweet mewzick together. but, if the trend continues, should we expect a new EP sometime later this year? all reports suggest "YES", and i'm eagerly anticipating a September release. but, what form it'll take, we'll just have to wait and see...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;img src="http://i225.photobucket.com/albums/dd300/enricotassi/White_square_with_question_mark.png" alt="Photobucket" border="0" /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:85%;"&gt;(c) &lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;September 2008???&lt;/span&gt;, Boysnoize Records&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;i know i can't wait...so here's a PUZIQUe remix for your fine, fine ears!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.zshare.net/audio/16089051e6037429/"&gt;Villeneuve - Oh No (PUZIQUe Remix)&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: left;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:85%;"&gt;THOMAS FLUSH&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.zshare.net/audio/16089327e852b4d5/"&gt;Thomas Bangalter - Spinal Scratch&lt;/a&gt;

to devastating effect. it may be cheap...but it's big, it's bad and it's so so good...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Hervé then teams up with&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt; &lt;/span&gt;Trevor Loveys to make the dreamteam &lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;Speakerjunk&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:0;"&gt;.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt; &lt;/span&gt;On &lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;Switch&lt;/span&gt;'s Dubsided label again, they take on another old master. this time it's Jimi Hendrix and, once again, it's &lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;a bit of a beast&lt;/span&gt;...the original's great, the Speakerjunk remake kicks it kicking and screaming into the 21st century, but it's the Switch remix that just gives it one extra level of &lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;spunk&lt;/span&gt;...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: left;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.zshare.net/audio/11879098e325ed78/"&gt;Hervé - Cheap Thrills&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.zshare.net/audio/1213292582b6771f/"&gt;Speakerjunk - Foxxy (Switch Remix)&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

&lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;the musical pain&lt;/span&gt;. whilst appearing somewhat afraid of him, Tiga seems nevertheless to have taken The Proxy under his wing at Turbo Recordings and he's been releasing some great tracks and remixes. (CAN'T WAIT FOR HIS &lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;DANCE IN DARK&lt;/span&gt; EP, which is coming out in june some time...!!!) the &lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;Riot In Belgium&lt;/span&gt; re-edit maybe just gives the track a slightly more accessible edge...but don't worry, i'll have the originals on here at some point i'm sure...(i'll find an excuse...) &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p align="justify"&gt;STRONG UNDERTOE AHEAD. DANGER OF DROWNING. another favourite artist of mine, &lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;D.I.M.&lt;/span&gt; (Andi Mead), is also a master of the brutal bassline. perhaps most famous for the electro &lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;weapon&lt;/span&gt; that is &lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;Airbus Baby&lt;/span&gt;, he also debuted on Tiga's Turbo Recordings imprint. his first release, featuring the track &lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;Syspiphos&lt;/span&gt;, shows D.I.M.'s ability to push the limits of his sound....and the result is an elasticated electronic soup which breaks over your head and immerses...submerges you. be careful though...once under, it's difficult to resurface...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.zshare.net/audio/12130239a3cc5afe/"&gt;The Proxy - Destroy (Riot In Belgium's Serious About Dance Edit)&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.zshare.net/audio/1212972171de3af3/"&gt;D.I.M. - Sysiphos&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:85%;"&gt;DROWNING INSURANCE&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.zshare.net/audio/11854621e0b4744e/"&gt;Max Berlin - Elle &amp;amp;

&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;are perhaps the prime example, but &lt;strong&gt;Goose&lt;/strong&gt; aren't far behind. here, their track &lt;em&gt;Everybody&lt;/em&gt;, from their debut album &lt;em&gt;Bring It On &lt;/em&gt;(Skint), is ripped apart by the storming &lt;strong&gt;The Bloody Beetroots&lt;/strong&gt;. they seem to be remixing everyone at the moment, but this effort is so full of an insane energy that it's perfect for getting into that euphoric summer mood...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: left;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.zshare.net/audio/120727794b64a99a/"&gt;Goose - Everybody (The Bloody Beetroots Chipmunk Remix)&lt;/a&gt;

met...)</title><content type='html'>&lt;div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:100%;"&gt;i found this guy in Hyde Park today. he seemed to have started some kind of hippy free-for-all by the Serpentine. some 40 people were in a drug-fueled / religious euphoria trance, all shaking tambourines or hitting sticks against each other in a vain attempt to keep up a rhythm for this guitar-clad 'ringleader'. my first impressions were that &lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;this papa seemed pretty cool&lt;/span&gt;, even though he was giving me the evil eye for unexpectedly pulling out my camera on him during one of his "manu chao-esque" renditions...&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:100%;"&gt;but then something happened to disrupt this perfect balance of music, free love and lunacy...&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;img src="http://i225.photobucket.com/albums/dd300/enricotassi/DSC01227-1.jpg" /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:100%;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:100%;"&gt;he had this pasty assistant guy with him, sitting cross-legged at his feet as though the guitar man was some sort of &lt;em&gt;jesus&lt;/em&gt; figure...with a guitar. but, unfortunately, when he broke out into his latin chorus for about the twelfth time, it was too much for him to handle and he began to snigger uncontrollably into his chubby arm...&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;span style="text-decoration: underline;"&gt;&lt;img

style="font-size:100%;"&gt;eventually, he couldn't take it any longer and, with an air of intent about him, reached greedily for the console...presumably to put himself and the small crowd that had gathered out of their misery...&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a

style="font-size:100%;"&gt;&lt;em&gt;"oh no you didn't"&lt;/em&gt;: having made the mistake of touching the console, the summer santa claus was forced to stop mid-chorus and shot him (or his hand) a killerlaserninja type glance thing...&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://s225.photobucket.com/albums/dd300/enricotassi/?action=view&amp;amp;current=DSC01235.jpg" target="_blank"&gt;&lt;img src="http://i225.photobucket.com/albums/dd300/enricotassi/DSC01235.jpg"

style="font-size:100%;"&gt;gasps from the barefooted crowd and the hippy throng could be heard all around as the bearded maestro leant over and swore something at him in spanish. most of the crowd had to look away - either out of embarrassment for the hapless assistant or out of horror from the ferocity of the attack. either way, noone's disgust matched that of the indian woman behind him, who turned to the mexican in the blue cap next to her (who was loving it) before realising that she had nothing to say and began to look through him blankly...&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://s225.photobucket.com/albums/dd300/enricotassi/?action=view&amp;amp;current=DSC01243.jpg"

style="font-size:100%;"&gt;humiliated and excommunicated from the group, the assistant was forced to leave. the man with the guitar didn't even look up as he enthusiastically pursued a reprise of whatever the hell he had been playing before he had been &lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;so rudely interrupted&lt;/span&gt;. meanwhile, his former buddy collected the sandals he had left in
