Django Django - Hail Bop

It's 2012, and Prince Rama has made the Top Ten Hits of the End of the World. Conceived as a pseudo-compilation album, the Brooklyn duo invented ten different pop bands that died during the apocalypse, channeling the ghosts of each one to perform the various songs.  Spanning genres and stylistic eras from across the globe, Top Ten Hits explores pop music’s relationship to memory, nostalgia, and the spirit world.  Incorporating influences as disparate as cosmic disco, motorcycle rock, new-wave, grunge, tribal goth, Arabic pop, and ghost-modern glam, Prince Rama filters each sound through the destroyed lens of a post-apocalyptic future looking back at the wonders of its sonic past.  Recorded half with Tim Koh in Ariel Pink’s Haunted Graffiti’s studio and mixed with Scott Colburn (Animal Collective, Sun City Girls, Arcade Fire), Top Ten Hits of the End of the World isn’t just a pop album, it’s a retrospective requiem of all pop albums ever made.  Nothing like this has ever been attempted by a single band, and its residual echoes will continue to haunt this world and the next.

RAGE PEACE
Rage Peace formed as a small protest band in the early 90s and before they knew it they were the Bob Dylans of a whole generation of angry youth. They became founding members of the Rage Peace movement, based on the principle of nihilism as the only true order, and wrote songs with violent messages placed in seemingly saccharine pop structures. The band was notorious for staging organized acts of violence and destruction, burning cars and sometimes buildings in the name of chaos. When the end came, their bodies were found locked inside a limousine they had set on fire. The license plate read “HEY U”.

Two lovers just hoping that we can be wild. Out in the open, out in the open. Two lovers just hoping that we can be wild. Baby, we can be wild.
Under the sun. Deep in the trees. You're all that I want, you're everything I need. Baby, don't hide the colors inside. We can get lost tonight. 'Cause our love is out in the open, out in the open. Two lovers just hoping that we can be wild. Out in the open, out in the open. Two lovers just hoping that we can be wild. Baby, we can be wild. We can be, we can be, we can be wild.

Super psyched about our latest fc signing JAGWAR MA  !!! Check the vid too, its dope.

Jagwar Ma seemingly came fully-formed out of nowhere last summer with the nostalgic yet-thoroughly-modern sleeper 'Come Save Me'.  Off the back of community and triple j airplay, the track quickly made its way round the internet and the globe.  "Come Save Me" found a release in the UK on The Blue Rider label, then some love on the airways of KCRW (Los Angles) and BBC Radio 1 (London).

They first appeared live for a couple of shows in the European summer of 2012. NME reviewed their second ever show at the Midi Festival in Hyeres, France "It was Jagwar Ma who hogged all the industry interest. Their songs are huge….everything they play morphs into electrifying variations"

Jagwar Ma then scored a berth on the influential NME poll for the worlds 20 Most Exciting New Bands of 2013,"Hailing from Australia, indie-dance's most exciting new duo took a trip to rural France to concoct their throbbing pop masterpieces".

Their psyche influenced electro beats have generated equal interest in the recording industry and the band just signed an Australian and New Zealand record deal with Future Classic (Flume, Flight Facilities, Mitzi).

In Europe Jagwar Ma have signed a record deal with Marathon Music.  This brand new label is helmed by infamous frenchman Phlippe Ascoli who played a leading hand in signing or launching Daft Punk, Phoenix and Air.

Sydneysiders get the first look at the band when they do their debut show at GoodGod TONIGHT Wednesday Jan 16th . It is a warm up to their national slot on the Big Day Out this summer.

Paramore - Now

Work...A lot of it! 
That's what I thought when Flight Facilities told me of there plan to make a months worth of mix tapes, spanning 4 decades, as well as incorporating sound bites of global events of each year sprinkled effortlessly (though no doubt painstakingly) throughout the mixes!

What can i do to help, I said!
Make an edit for us they said!

So I did!
Knowing I'd be up against the antipodean Edit Maestro that is Rocco Raimundo.
I thought I'd try and throw some grunt into what for me was a classic tune from Bowie's Back catalogue and serious jam in it's original format.

You can listen to their first mix (1972-1982) here.

About Atlas Genius-
The members of Adelaide, Australia’s Atlas Genius do things a little differently….They set about building a studio where they could write and record music for their newly formed band 3 years before they even played their first live show as Atlas Genius. For two years, they devoted their days to constructing their dream studio and spent their nights performing songs by The Police, The Beatles and The Rolling Stones at local pubs to pay the bills. “We really got down and dirty with dry walling and literally laying the floorboards, and at the same time we were taking a couple of days a week to focus on writing songs,” recalls Keith Jeffery, Atlas Genius’s vocalist/guitarist. "We had a lot of song ideas and it was important to us to have our own studio where we could experiment and hone in on our sound," adds brother and drummer, Michael Jeffery. The studio was designed and outfitted by the brothers with the help of their father (who comes from a music and engineering background). Once the studio was complete, the first song that Atlas Genius finished was a song called “Trojans,” which they wrote, recorded and produced in collaboration with their friend, keyboardist Darren Sell. After many weeks tweaking the song, Michael insisted that the song was ready to be heard outside of the studio walls. Within an hour, “Trojans” was on the Triple J Unearthed Website, SoundCloud, and for sale via TuneCore on iTunes, Amazon and Spotify worldwide.

“We had begun to think that music was a pipedream and we had all gone back to university to pursue more realistic careers,” says Keith. “We’d had such a long slog of playing late nights and working all day, and it felt like we didn’t really have anything to show for it.” But then, in the midst of cramming for their Fall 2011 semester final exams, Neon Gold discovered “Trojans” on the Triple J Unearthed Website and wrote a post praising “Trojans” as a song sure to “invade your head, all dressed up in a clever disguise of earnest vocals riding a hooky riff.” Checking the band’s email account for the first time in over a month, the band found that dozens of record labels, publishers, lawyers, booking agents and management companies from all over the world had contacted them.

“We were trying to focus on school, but it was just impossible,” recalls Keith. “So we said, ‘There’s something going on here. Let’s get back to the music.’” The band added manager, Jonny Kaps from +1, to their extended family to navigate all of the interest as the band focused on writing and recording more songs.

Quickly named an iTunes Single of the Week in Australia and New Zealand, “Trojans” reached #4 on Hype Machine by the end of May. In August, SiriusXM Satellite Radio’s Alt-Nation discovered the song on a blog and decided to give it some spins. There was an immediate reaction from listeners, and in September, “Trojans” was placed into heavy rotation, where it maintained a top-five position on the listener-generated Alt-18 countdown and peaked at number one for 4 consecutive weeks in January 2012. “Trojans” began selling over a thousand tracks per week on U.S. iTunes and soon climbed to 45,000 sales - all with zero promotional efforts from the still-unsigned Atlas Genius.

“Knowing we had this audience that was waiting on new songs, we had a much greater sense of purpose than we had before,” says Keith. “It was really exciting to know that there were people who wanted to hear more of our music.” Although labels were clamoring for the band to come to the U.S. and play a series of showcase gigs, Atlas Genius turned down those offers in favor of staying in Adelaide to keep writing and recording new songs. In February 2012, after months of communicating with numerous labels via Skype, the band chose to travel to the US in order to make their label decision.

“We’d never been to America before,” says Keith. “We flew in at night and saw this sea of lights, and it really became apparent to us how massive the U.S. is. It was pretty intimidating - like ‘How do we fit into all this?’” In April 2012, the band returned to the states having made their decision to sign with Warner Bros. Records. “We felt a connection with them,” notes Keith. “Everyone there feels very creative and dedicated to the music.”

The band’s first release from their new label home, the EP Through The Glass (produced, engineered and mixed by the band), came out in June of 2012. With Through The Glass completed, Atlas Genius then holed up in its studio and worked on writing and recording its first full-length album, while at the same time rehearsing for their first ever tour. The tour started in August 2012 and led to three more tours back to back taking them thru to the end of the year. Thus, their full-length debut was finished up between tour dates and got completed just before Christmas 2012. When It Was Now is set for a US release on February 19th, 2013, with an international release to follow soon after.

The debut captures Atlas Genius’s singular combination of sophisticated musicality and warm, wistful spirit. Infused with a classic sensibility, each of the songs would fit seamlessly if somehow slipped into a long-treasured mixtape. On the shimmering “Symptoms,” for instance, taut keyboard riffs mesh with urgent acoustic strumming before the band bursts into a gently frenetic, guitar-drenched chorus. Meanwhile, “Back Seat” blends its pulsing bass throb with a sweetly infectious beat and tender vocals that alternately soar and sigh. And on “Trojans,” Atlas Genius begins with a restrained guitar melody and vocal (“Take it off, take it in/Take off all the thoughts of what we’ve been”) before giving way to the handclap-accented, harmony-soaked refrain and lush yet kinetic bridge.

“It’s still surreal,” says Keith of all that’s happened over the past 18 months. “I think when we were very young, we had hopes that something like this might happen one day,” he continues. (Thanks largely to encouragement from their Beatles fanatic parents, who encouraged the brothers to begin playing music by age 14.) “But then you grow up a bit and it seems less and less likely. So when we put ‘Trojans’ out, we figured it would be a success if maybe a hundred people heard it. We don’t want to force our music onto anyone. Our goal is to write songs that we love and we hope they connect with other people too.”

UNKINDER (A TOUGHER LOVE)

Best known for the title track to their 2015 debut Astralwerks album, “Feeling Electric,” which was featured in EA Sports’ FIFA 16 game, Los Angeles-based alt-electro band Parade of Lights have toured extensively throughout the US as a headliner and supporting act for artists such as Imagine Dragons, X Ambassadors, Awolnation, and Fitz & The Tantrums. Their song “Golden” from the album has been featured in TV promotional spots for the Super Bowl, Olympics, Oscars, and Grammys along with numerous TV shows and commercials.

Formed in 2010 by singer/guitarist Ryan Daly and drummer Anthony Improgo, PoL added keyboardist Michelle Ashley in 2013 and signed with Astralwerks later that year after their independent single “We’re the Kids” garnered top 10 spins at SiriusXM’s Alt Nation.

In 2017, PoL released the singles “Touch” and “Victorious” and dropped another new song, “Tidal Waves”, in January 2018. Their most recent EP, “Human Condition Part 1” (released May 14, 2018) is their fourth multi-song release following “Feeling Electric,” 2014’s “Golden” EP and their debut 2012 independent EP “Born to Live, Born to Love.” 

“Human Condition Part 1” contains the song “Inside My Head,” which is featured in season 2 of the acclaimed Netflix series 13 Reasons Why.  The band’s song “Tangled Up” is also featured in the show and on the season 2 soundtrack.
