Music Mondays: ATAM004 - Massaad + Garland - Atmosphere
Read more . . . →Here is a track that was made by the Ottawa-based vocal duo Massaad + Garland and just released at the begining of March 2011 on the independent electronic label ATAM Productions I'm a big fan of the vocoder sound so this one is an instant win but also worthy of attention is the instrumental version which doesnt have any of this vocal. A bit of history about the track: the music and percussion was originally made for last summer but for some reason or another it never got finished. This year a vocal was added and the whole thing was...

Music Mondays: Cassius - Love You So (Skream Remix)
Read more . . . →Let me start off by first warning: This is NOT the real music video for this song/remix. I have been a big fan of the Skream remix to Cassius' I Love You So ever since I first heard it a couple months ago.

I've been a fan of Justice and Uffie as well but haven't heard enough other releases to really know for sure if I'm an Ed Banger myself when...

Not even a full week later Apple announced faster processors (the 2.8 ghz i7) replacing the machine I had just purchased. I weighed my options...
