Can we talk about The Grey for a minute? OK. So I went to see this the other day. My friend was all, "Liam Neeson ... wolves ... blah, blah ... blah." So I'm not entirely sure what he said, but this is what I heard: "Liam Neeson fights hundreds of thousands of wolves with his bare hands and defeats them all. Also, naked women and stuff." And then I sit through this whole friggin' movie and dude doesn't fight a single wolf with his bare hands? He uses fire and makeshift weapons? And has a squadron? And runs away and ...

In the summer of 2011, I had the fortune of getting the opportunity to see two groundbreaking acts that ultimately (and deservedly) illuminated many Album of the Year lists, in Azari & III and Nicolas Jaar - at Melt! Festival in rural old-East Germany. Though I then had the misfortune of missing both - the reasons somewhere between heinous stage clashes and festival excess shown in my etiolated, confused face. It has somewhat haunted me since. 2nd February 2012, and Azari and III are in town… as in Nicolas Jaar. In separate venues. Each for one night only. As you may have guessed given the screaming large footed header above, I made the decision to opt for the Toronto quartet of Azari & III, though carrying a pang of guilt to Heaven for missing the prodigal undulated talent of Jaar. Once inside the underground brick-worked Fabric-esque lair amongst the throng of fantastically groomed haircuts, the bubbling, carnivorous excitement is palpable; reputation preceding, thanks to a stonking debut self-titled album from Dinamo Azari and Alixander III featuring master strokes of heavily-indebtted Chicago house good times. The mainly instrumental number of Tunnel Vision opens the eve at a typically early Heaven start; God damn you Heaven, I would be mad at you but you posses such a luscious sound system I can't. And hell, an early night is actually kinda ...

Download link is in the original post Sounds like: Azari & III, Prince, Soul Clap Song: Azari & III - Into the Night (Nicolas Jaar Remix) [download here ] What's so good? Toronto house mavens, Azari & III, have been appearing out of the woodwork as of late with their current releases, “Reckless (With Your Love)” and “Hungry For the Power” and their more recent tour announcement with Madonna. The period piece 80s vibe that this group exudes is extravagant and fashionably outlandish, but it’s a refreshing sensation in the dance music world. This remix of Azari & III’s “Into the Night” strips down the glammed-out club grooves and funk of the original song and creates an airy darkness that is effortless and audibly pleasant. Jaar expands the track to epic proportions and builds up and breaks down the songs elements a few times but succeeds in never letting it stagger for too long. Although the track was released in late 2010, it still is relevant in what Jaar and Azari & III are currently producing to date; fluid, ass-shaking goodness. Watch the video for the original “Into the Night” below and enjoy the sexy vibrations: http://vimeo.com/15623501 ------------------------ 1.

Friendly Fires and Azari & III (Suck my deck) This sounds like something that would play in the beginning of an 80′s teen comedy film.
