Jupiter from Paris/London are a boy-girl-duo with a great love for big hair, glam rock and 80s glitter. They are releasing their debut EP this fall. To ease the wait they sent over this mix of Nu-Disco (terrible word!) which includes two tracks off the EP: “Submarine 75″ and “Starlighter” (here in a remix by Steeve Moore).
Enjoy!

Last month on our monthly show on thehype.fm we featured a stellar mix from Parisian basshead, Mike Gnacadja, aka MikIX The Cat. When he’s not mixin it up as the cat, Mike showcases a lighter, techier side, under his ‘Momma’s Boy‘ moniker, on Orgasmic and Teki Latex’s label Sound Pellegrino. Check the recent EP release featuring “Wedouwedou” and “Give it Up”, and look out for an upcoming release via Anabatic Records. Now to warm you up for tomorrow’s show here’s the mix for download.

What connects Norwegian death metal, French club anthems and London super-producer Paul Epworth? It sounds like a particularly intractable example of the six degrees of separation game. However, these seemingly irreconcilable points on the musical compass are linked by French dance rock four-piece Black Strobe. A simple enough answer. The explanation is going to take a little bit longer.
Not as long as it took the band – Arnaud Rebotini (vocals and programming), David ‘Siskid’ Shaw (guitars and keyboards), Bastien Burger (bass and keyboards) and Benjamin Beaulieu (drums) – to record their debut album, however. Burn Your Own Church is a record ten years in the making. Happily, it’s worth the wait. Few bands manage to combine guitars and electronics as successfully as Black Strobe.

…or is about to. Bruno Levy, who is currently getting buzz in the indie rock world for his video for The Walkmen’s Four Provinces, has let us in on Sialagogue, the first piece from his current project World’s End.
Bruno first won acclaim as member of video art crew SquareSquare, one of the most sought-after VJs in New York in the early 2000s. After landing mega-gig after mega-gig and garnering praise from the likes of Wired, he took a 4-year sabbatical in Nepal. Upon his recent return, he started this first-time collaboration between him and hi-profile drummer Deantoni Parks (whose resume reads like a Rolling Stone “best of” list).
To execute the visual complement to Deantoni’s instrumental composition, Bruno enlisted the help of the lovely Rila Fukushima (who you may have seen modeling for designers like D&G) to act as the stop-motion cell and central character for the video. Two days of animation, several ink pens, thousands of photos, and trips to the Paris Catacombs, Iguazu Falls and the New York Aquarium later, he created a video worthy of its name.
By the way, Bruno sent us the definition of the video’s name:
si·al·a·gogue or si·al·o·gogue (s-l-gôg)
n.
A drug or other agent that increases the flow of saliva. Also called ptyalagogue.
You can most certainly sense that as you watch the video. Be on the lookout for other videos from World’s End and from Bruno’s solo projects.
