Der Remix ist gemeinsam mit Nicos Entdeckung Sasha entstanden — die Solokünstlerin ist unter dem Künstlernamen Just Friends bei Jaars Label "Clowns & Sunset" zu Hause. Hört euch den zauberhaften Track, der im Original auf Jaars " Prism " erschienen ist, an dieser Stelle an: Nicolas Jaar: "Avalanche" (feat.

Zarte fünf Monate ist dieses Jahr erst jung und schon findet 2012 einen weiteren Höhepunkt aus dem Leuchtturm der Entschleunigung — BBC Radio 1 hat Nicolas Jaar zum legendären "Essential Mix" gebeten. Das Set dauert knappe zwei Stunden, die etwas abenteuerliche Tracklist reicht von Jay-Z und Aphex Twin über Marvin Gaye und *NSYNC, bis hin zu einigen mehr oder weniger unbekannten Remixes und Edits aus dem Hause Clown And Sunset. Wie immer ist es dem amerikanisch-chilenischen Produzenten dabei gelungen, Genregrenzen geschickt verschwimmen zu lassen. Euer perfekte Start in die Woche ist nur ein Klick entfernt: Nicolas Jaar - "BBC Radio 1 Essential ...

In fact, anonymity is the hallmark of some of the scene's biggest artists—take Daft Punk , The Bloody Beetroots , and Burial just for starters. Add Claptone to the list, as this unidentified combo hit the world of disco-tinged deep house hard this spring with their cover of the Wu-Tang Clan classic " Cream ." The tune climbed up the Beatport charts and made its way onto the hard drives of star DJs including Tensnake , A-Trak , and Matthew Dear . Their latest, "Night On Fire," which drops June 4th ...

Daughn Gibson - ‘In The Beginning’ Post-dubstep Gothic-country? Chalk me down. I tried to avoid the hyperbole on this one, what with the references to James Blake, Johnny Cash, Walker">Scott Walker, Nick Cave, Brian Eno,  Arthur Russell, Magnetic Fields, Matthew Dear and The xx, the list goes on. Probably the best analogy is “imagine if    Nicolas Jaar edited together a cocaine-country album,” that one is by Gibson’s Aussie label Mistletone. I’m adding another to the list, the closest in my mind, see one David Thomas Broughton .  To his advantage Gibson comes with a romantic Americana back story, he ...
