PLUS MOVE



PLUS MOVE is an electro duo right out of the future...2099 to be exact. That's also the title of their first EP, which I must say is just incredible. If you happened to mix SebastiAn, Digitalism & Daft Punk together you would end up with this crazy concoction. Crazily good concoction.

808s & Heartbreak



The artwork for Kanye's new LP 808s & Heartbreak is pretty dope; done by Vanessa Beecroft. Not going to lie. Kanye has good taste in fashion/art and the artwork for the last 2 LPs of his have impressed me.



Courtesy of the wonderful Takashi Murakami.


From what I've heard of the actual album it's a love/hate though process. The reminiscence to cheesy 90's R&B is cool in concept, but coming Kanye, is kind of lame. He's not the most creative and/or the most suitable for the genre.

CONTRAMAG

On a bi-monthly basis CONTRA provides internet literate people with a interesting perspective on city life and an amalgamation of cultures.

DESIGNER DRUGS is club music that will fuck you in the face! So deep, so raw, so energetic; I don't see how anyone can get enough. These doods from NYC really know how to rock shit right.

Check out their Myspace! (click their name) RIGHT THE FUCK, NOW!

Also, as a courtesy for you homies I've taken the time to upload all the their Myspace songs into a RAR:

THE RAR

Since I lost my first pair of 'phones by WESC last week (the white/blue Oboe's) I ended up buying myself another pair tonight! Love these 'phones with a fucking furious passion!


That's it from me. Might be going to a Crystal Castles DJ set next weekend @ Wrongbar in T.O. We'll see.

OI OI OIZO




Mr. Oizo is part of the Ed Banger crew and most definitely one of most talented people on that label. Refusing the notoriously weird melodies of STEAK or Moustache (Half A Scissor) was hard enough. Now Oizo's released Lambs Anger...needless to say you're going to be on an Oizo binge for awhile:


"Z"

"Bruce Willis is Dead"

"Positif"

"Jo"



This artist is amazingly talented. Check it!

BREAKDOWN x BLACKTOOTH


Breakdown is a new electro/dance DJ act out of the nitty-gritty, ever-so-lovable L.A. They are rockin' the shit out of clubs in the area and deserve a lookout. So let these doods rock on your speakers for a little bit; I've taken some time to link two badass tunes.

"Heavy (Breakdown Remix)"


"Play With It"



If you're starving for some more then head over to each dood's myspace (after the break). Apparently these 3 guys (Reid Speed, Matt David, and Josh David) still run their own shit as well:

Josh David
Matt David
Reid Speed

Electro FTW!

I, as a fashionista of my generation, am going to share with you one of my clothing goldmines: !BLACKTOOTH!

This shit is epic:



Honestly, need I say more?

OH!

Here are a few pics from last Wednesday, when I saw Justice at CiRCA!
p.s. If you get a chance to go to this club, GO! It's insane, beautifully artistic and lots of fun.
