Danish updates

Share By Foss

Okay, so it’s been a while since we did an actual music update. It’s mostly been festival reports and pictures, so now it’s time for some real music on the site to keep the summer going.

The danish DJ Hankat alias Max Roden Thelin just released his first track on the Sound of Copenhagen label. “Be the First” is a sweet kinda-minimal tech slow beat track with a few surprising details. The track has already been remixed by some high profiles remixers and among these are a few worth mentioning.
As always Acid Washed delivers the goodies. The remix has that great 80′s feel to it and at the same time it builds up like a charm.
Frederik Rosenstrand also did a great mix of this track. It’s a bit more in the vocal-chill out genre but it’s definitely worth a listen.

Meanwhile the two guys from Lulu Rouge, DJ T.O.M and DJ Buda released a very special remix. It’s a track for this years Stella Polaris compilation.
Lulu remixed the good old Moby track Natural Blues. It’s an amazing remix bringing new life to the old track. The way it keeps on going with the vocal and slow bass is just wicked. :<3:

Friday Guest Bangers (week 4)

Share By Hemmingsen

Friday Guest Bangers (week 4)

Hi, my name is Anders Halkjær, i’m just been asked to make a Friday guest banger, the only problem i have is, the clock is 20:00 i’m going to meet at 7:00 at my job tomorrow. So basically i have three hours to find some new music that means something to me, and still live up to my own standards of what i think a music blog should be like! – got damn, but as you can see, i said yes! :)

I have strived my best to express my personality, and my love for different music, as much as possible, I hope you will enjoy it, though it’s not a pure electronic post! :)

Hankat – Be the first (electro)
My first thought for a description of this number was: ”just listen!” .. But it is a blog, and to give the number the attention it deserves, i need to write a few words..

Hankat is a new danish project, that could be my argument no.1!
I think the sample is from Gladys Night, argument no.2!
Their new video, says it all, no. 3!

Enjoy it, i’ve just reached my listening number 20, and it’s still a BANGER to me!

Fallulah – Bridges (alternative)
Give it up for a very serious upcoming danish act, it’s new like in new new. I was thrilled the first time i listened to this number, and i think the number lift the bar for new danish music! It’s special in so many ways, and very international in it’s sound. I hope she will get her entrance on P3′s airplay some time, because she shurely deserve it. My last words for this number is, ”Fallulah, our relationship has just begone!”

Martin Jondo – Rainbow Warrior (reggae)
Oooh yes, i know it’s winter in Denmark, but i just spoke to my friend who live on an island in the Caribbean sea, and he told me, that on Tortola, this number is the shit right now, and i can only agree. I can’t tell you why a German artist have found his way to Tortola, but where there is sun, beach, and cold drinks, reggae always gonna find it’s way :)
If you close your eyes, turn up the heat, and dream yourself away, i’m sure this number will work for you to! :)

Broken Bells – The High Road (electro rock)
Danger Mouse (Gnarls B, Gorillaz) and Shins frontman James Mercer in a new project called Broken Bells.. To me it was love at first sound/listen/sight wtf, i’m pretty sure that this project is gonna be huge. The quality, the vibe, the feeling this number give me, is truly amazing, i can listen to it over and over again! If you don’t like it the first time, then try again, sooner or later you gonna lay down on the floor like a little dog, and just crave for more (playing) ;) – to me, it’s the best music i have heard in a long long time! .. Album out March 9th.

Paolo Nutini – Pencil Full of Lead (alternative/soul)
Every time this man put a new record on the street i feel reborn, i get this instant lust for painting, writing, singing, dancing just go nuts in creativity, it’s wonderful.. It’s so timeless and sounds like noting else on the music scene. Just look at the sun while your hear this number, and you will forget all the bad things in the world, it just crave your attention instantly, and tell you to smile and be happy. :<3:

If you find this post, Cool, Overrated, Meaningful, Mesmerizing, Enjoying, Nutsackish, Trash Pleasurable, Lame, Electrifying, Annoying, Shitty, Emotional! Hope you'll catch my point! ..

BONUS:
Jamie Cullum – Mixtape (Jazz, pop, mainstream)
The extra number, is from Jamie Cullums new album called the pursuit, it’s the definition of good and well composed music. His talent is amazing. If you are in to the Jamie sound, then go and buy his new album. It’s more than great, and a winner when your standing in your kitchen by yourself, cooking a nice meal, and feel like dancing and singing! – I’ll do it! :)

The time is now 22:57 , and i think i’m done! .. Hope you like it!
