Today we will land on a band I was supposed to see a couple of months ago... but I missed it. How's THAT for a story?

I'm gonna ...

Great party track from new DC resident Lightwaves. It sounds like Ghosthustler, Daft Punk and Futurecop! all thrown into a blender. I think this guy could do some really cool things in DC. I know my work out mix just got a little bit better. Check him out in DC on [...]

There have been some amazing acts from France over the past couple of years, Justice and Daft Punk aside, they have excelled in electro with the Kitsune and Ed Banger labels and in the form of ...

It's been a while since ive heard the beautiful synth beats of Futurecop . I remember their tour with Trashbags back in 2008, Listening to them play this sound that was so different, something born in the 80's reignited by the duo.

The second gig we ever did was in Sydney in 2008 and it was just amazing to see what the internet can ...
