Mount Kimbie – Would Know

by D. D. Peltier August 5, 2010

2010 has been an great year for the music album. The concept of the album has been under appreciated recently in music.

Theophilus London – I Want You

by D. D. Peltier June 8, 2010

We have just covered Theophilus London, the MC who has no qualms with blending an assortment of musical influences with his own undeniably slick flow. Above is the video for the title track straight off the ”I Want You” mixtape. The video, directed by Va$htie, fits the track just about right with it’s nod to [...]

Fatima – Soul Glo (Produced by FunkinEven)

by D. D. Peltier March 23, 2010

Fatima has long been overdue a proper release. The fact is that the Stockholm-raised, London-based songstress has been nicely toasting tracks for her label mates Floating Points and FunkinEven on Eglo Records for a minute now and recorded easily the best track on Shafiq Husayn’s solid debut album. She has the clout to hold her [...]

by D. D. Peltier March 3, 2010

J Dilla R.I.P

by D. D. Peltier February 10, 2010

I remember the day clearly; a friend and I were fooling around on the net. We found this video of a skater falling off his board and snapping his forearm. Yep, the video was grim but still funny as hell. We were just about to have a second viewing when my flatmate stepped into my [...]

Joy Orbison- The Shrew EP + So Derobe

by D. D. Peltier January 27, 2010

Joy Orbison blindsided everyone when he came out of thin air back in the summer of 2009 and dropped the track Hyph Mngo on us. Hyph Mngo has since been placed into every taste maker’s Best Songs of ’09 list and Joy Orbison has been listed as one to watch (again) in 2010. I was [...]

Olafur Arnalds

by D. D. Peltier January 20, 2010

I followed Mr Jones and Mr Ball onto this website for a reason. It wasn’t for the fame or the women, although I was promised plenty of both by Jacque Jones. The video above is one of the main reasons I joined. Several weeks back I showed the music video for Ólafur Arnalds‘ Ljósið to [...]
