01 Nicolas Jaar This choice may be predictable, but sometimes, things are predictable because they're the right answer, and we couldn't help but place Nicolas Jaar as our #1 pick. He's the kind of artist who's backed by a long-term artistic vision; the sort that you respect even if you...

After Nicolas Jaar collaborated with Bruce Willis and Demi Moore’s daughter Scout Larue on “With Just One Glance”, I had no idea the young producer would continue to work with Hollywood’s female offspring. Today, much to our surprise, he is…

After hooking up with Bruce Willis' and Demi Moore's kid for a track, Nicolas Jarr has continued the theme of famous offspring with this Leonard Cohen cover.

Glacially gorgeous electronic music wunderkind Nicolas Jaar seems to have a thing about collaborating with famous movie people’s daughters — and hell, it seems to work for him. First, he got Bruce Willis and Demi Moore’s daughter Scout Larue to sing on the excellent track “With Just One Glance.” And now he has a new [...]

Le groupe de Nicolas Leroux, Overhead , continue son petit bonhomme de chemin en toute indépendance. Après la sortie récente du EP digital " Facing the Grim " dont on a pu déguster quelques titres live à la Clef ou tout récemment au Divan du Monde, Overhead prépare la sortie de son 3ième LP, le bien nommé " Death by Monkees ", prévu pour la rentrée. Limité dans ses ressources pécuniaires, bien que soutenu par le label indé "Further Music" et distribué par Harmonia Mundi, Overhead cherche à obtenir les moyens de pouvoir promouvoir à sa juste valeur la sortie de ce grand disque qu ...

Check out a cut off Nicolas Jaar's mini-MP3 player "The Prism".

EDM-extraordinaire Nicolas Jaar has continued his trend of unexpected but welcome remixes and covers with this eternally subdued track. In order to create this minimalistic tune, he has joined forces with vocalist Sasha Spielberg (yes, Steven’s daughter)  to form super-chilled duo Just Friends. “Avalanche” was originally sung by the one and only Leonard Cohen, but [...]

America lacks an institution on par with the BBC1 Essential Mix. Sometimes bands of bearders pop up on Morning Becomes Eclectic, but they usually only play a few songs to soundtrack 9 a.m. binges on craisin scones. We stick to the pastries, they create their own tradition in which every notable artist (and the Swedish… Continue reading »

Visit Indie Shuffle to download. Sounds like: Shlohmo, Nicolas Jaar Song: SBTRKT - Gamelena [download here ] What's so good? SBTRKT is back in the studio and sharing new tracks! “Gamelena” is a little bit of a deconstruction — more of a meandering electronic track than anything particularly tangible. Frankly, not 100% sure what to make of this track. It’s definitely nice to listen to, but given that I’d rank his collaboration with Little Dragon among one of the best songs this decade…I’ve got my expectations really high. ------------------------ 1.

Hoffentlich erinnert ihr euch noch an Nicolas Jaars " Essential Mix ", den wir gestern vorgestellt hatten? Irgendjemand hat das Set genauer unter die Lupe genommen und ist dabei auf eine echte Perle gestoßen: Jaars Cover von Leonard Cohen s Track "Avalanche". 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. Just Friends) Der Dub-Produzent ist seit seinem Album "Space Is Only Noise" und Remixes für ...

Nicolas Jaar is in no way similar to Marmite. The love/hate relationship (that I hope I’m not alone in possessing) with the young NY prodigy is just far too complex. For example, his latest mix for BBC Radio 1′s Essential series is what Yogi bear would describe as ‘more aurally pleasing and adventurous than your [...]

[mp3] Churches: "Lies"  Where do they get those wonderful toys? Found this track whilst cruising the internet last night for something with a hint of melody (please no more Nicolas Jaar drone collaborations)... while solidly " Neon Gold-core " this track "Lies" from Glasgow's Churches , certainly delivers on my quest for a huge melody and saves me from having to sit through new XX live music. Pass. Of course, we know nothing else about this band, except that they exist.
