Titled ‘Solvent” the EP is characterised by Jimmys falsetto voice and potent pop writing skill although there is a rumour Siriusmo is behind the production as...

the sky lit up the stars, we were miles apart ♫ Theophilius London – Love Is Real (Fred Falke remix) I’ll never understand how indie crossover rapper Theophilius London got tied in with 2nd tier search engine Bing but if the result is a remix album with heavy hitters like Fred Falke, Bloody Beatroots, Crookers, and more, then I’m OK with it. I guess. While you decide whether it’s OK with you or not kick back to this pumped up dance … continue reading

Ben (left) & James (right) If you're at all interested or familiar with the continually popular domestic dance scene today, you know who The Knocks are.  The increasingly hyped NYC-based duo of Ben Ruttner & James Patterson have been making their heavy rounds as of late, touching down on both sides of the Atlantic and hitting the festival and club scene, all while managing to churn out quality material for us to eat up. We sat down with the fellas at the Sweetlife Festival a couple weeks back in Columbia, MD for a quick convo.  Follow up with the two's reflections on life as of late, upcoming work, and how they first came up not too long back. _____________________________________________________________________________ You guys have been super busy as of late, tell us about the last couple months. Ben - We’ve been travelling a lot - we were in California for a couple weeks recording in studios and such, and other than that we’ve been hitting spot dates. We did our own little tour from NY down to TX for SXSW - the Neon Gold tour which was us, St Lucia , Savoir Adore , all really fun. From SX we went straight to Ultra, played the main stage there which was pretty sick, and then we were in Miami for all of the Winter Music Conference as well and just hung out. James - And before that we were in London, like right before we did the Neon Gold tour, with DJ Shadow which was fun. Ben  - Yep, after all that, the travelling is chilling out for a little bit - basically after Sweelife we’re going from doing a festival or show every weekend from back at home in the studio consistently. What do you guys like most about the festival scene? James -  I like the fact that the crowd is pretty built-in, so you know you’re going to be reaching new people. And if they like it, the festival response, is way more epic than a regular show. People come to a festival and they’re just amped for whatever they’re gonna hear. Ben  - Yeah the energy is way higher, it’s much happier vibes compared to a NY show or something where everyone is so serious, in scenes like this everyone's just here to have fun. And our music is so much fun, so, it’s hard not to have a blast to it. James - Sometimes shows can be more of a showcase for an artist, A&Rs; can be there or industry people. Not that industry people don’t go to festivals, they definitely do, but I feel like the ratio is more in favor of the music lover than it would be otherwise at a scene like this. You guys mentioned going home soon - being NY - how’d you two come up initially and first link up together... READ MORE Ben  - I grew up in the boonies up in Vermont, James grew up in Connecticut, and we both did music apart originally. I used to make weird trip-hoppy instrumental stuff and he played through ...

Visit Indie Shuffle to download. Sounds like: Bag Raiders, Xaphoon Jones, Grouplove Song: The Knocks - Learn To Fly [download here ] What's so good? Not sure why it took me so long to turn on to “Learn To Fly,” but The Knocks’ latest single has definitely grown on me over the last couple days. Incidentally, the song fell short of making their most-recent EP Magic , so perhaps the band themselves are wishy-washy on it. In many ways, the track reminds me of Australian act Bag Raiders — from the vocals to the dancey beat, it’s no surprise to me that ...

Feel-good summer music is without a doubt some of my favorite music to listen to and The Knocks nailed it with their latest song, “Learn To Fly,” that they’re giving away for free on their Facebook. This tune will surely tide you over until our premiere of a Fred Falke x The Knocks collaboration coming... Continue + Comment

The Falkster is back with another commercial club remix.

Fred ‘Where did I put my Bass’ Falke is giving away ‘Electricity‘, a track he did with Kris Menace. It serves as a good reminder to purchase a copy of his ‘Part IV‘ album. The album is essentially “Fred Falke’s best songs – the compilation“. And is something you all should have a copy of…. [...]

Fred Falke ft. Kris Menace : “Electricity” - MP3

Fred Falke ft. Kris Menace - Electricity "....So much of modern music takes the ideas in the 70's and 80's and uses them in a very superficial way. I hope i have managed to create something that re-­‐asserts the musicality of this era within the context of modern music and modern production methods” “ I've always sought to re-­‐align the modern French sound with the musical heritage that informed it, to bring that sound to a young crowd... to make it relevant to them."

Very good, very underrated song gets a very cool, rated remix

Fred Falke is one of the great unsung heroes of electronic music. Yes, he has a considerable following and has been in the game for a long time, but for wh…

Fred Falke is the latest producer to remix Eva Simons' track "I Don't Like You," and his chilled-out synths and melodic elements help put the great vocal front and center.

I’m a little late on this one. But I came across this Fred Falke remix of Theophilus London and its infectious. Falke takes the work one of the most interesting [...] No related posts.
