Our very own 4am Jess, with the help of Proper Villians, seems to have done my favorite mix of the past month. It’s sooooooooooooo goooooooooooood! So good, in fact, that I trainspotted every track on it that i didn’t already have and am now capable of recreating it, in case all existence of it is somehow wiped off the face of the earth. Seriously there is not a dud track on this business and the selection and flow of the mix is impeccable and flawless. I spotted this one on the new website of Jess and DJ Donna Summer’s new label Nightshifters, which, based on their current roster, is a label that I’m sure we’ll be hearing a lot of blog buzz and hype in the near future.

Received this sexy little mix from London art rocker sweeties George and Fenner from Lesser Panda, who we featured - gosh, was it only back in Janurary? - to celebrate their new release, single “Carousel/Ghostdance” which debuts on 13th October 2008 !

If you get gooey and nostalgic over the great tunes from the 80s like the Cure, Talking Heads, Smiths and Psychadelic Furs, you’ll LOVE Lesser Panda - and you can catch a sneak of “Carousel” on this mix, which has also been featured on fellow music blog Fried my little brain - nice one.

Enjoy!

ps - is vanilla a euphemism for something or am i just being thick? yes, probably.

Blackpool’s darling Victoria Hesketh, aka Little Boots, and former lead singer of Dead Disco, has created a lovely mixtape entitled “Computer Fairyland Mixtape“, a short and sweet listen that will cause you to float off into her disco wonderland! Regarding the mixtape, Little Boots says, “Everyone keeps saying its too short… I stayed up all night and did it the day after I got back from LA with massive jet lag so please excuse. Speaking of which I’m going to back in a few weeks to play Nocturnal Festival (located in San Bernardino, CA), sick rave…. come see me?”

Be on the look out for Little Boots’ release which will come in the form of the “Arecibo” EP out mid-November through IAMSOUND Records. The EP will be on 12” vinyl and digitally through iTunes and emusic, produced by Joe from Hot Chip and Greg from Bird And The Bee.

During the course of this abysmal English summer, a Montreal DJ by the name of DJ SPAZ dropped a mix into TM that really cut through a lot of hazy, atmospheric summer type mixes we’d been getting that immediately made me sit up and connect.

After a couple of months of chatting by email, I can say that 33-year-old DJ Spaz, otherwise known as Alex Pearo, is one straight up no bullshit dude, which makes it even more of a pleasure to drop his mix on you lovely folk.

Spaz’s Robotic Mix starts with a winner of a tune, Chew Fu Phat’s remix of Florida hottie “I’m Da Man of My City” from Popov, throws in some Rico Tubbs, plus that nice Crooker’s remix I keep hearing everywhere – of Radioclit’s “Secousse” - then gets busy, banging through 40 odd more tunes.

The end result is a bouncing mix that’s most certainly informed by Alex’s anything-goes style (“good music whatever the style - if it sounds good I’ll probably drop it”), playing electro, Baltimore, ghetto house, house, hip hop, funk, dancehall. And no doubt further influenced by 15 years of Djing throughout Montreal: which included sitting tight on a hip hop and dancehall residency and being the buyer for indie hip hop at a record store for a good six years of those.

Alex explained that the tracks for Robotic Mix were all sourced via the internet, which was as much of a stylistic choice as it is an indicator of how important putting music online is these days.

He says:

“The interesting thing about this mix is all the different sources I used to get the music (blogs, forums, myspace pages, etc). It ain’t record digging like the old days aka 3 years ago, but the end result is similar. I think that the producers who remixed or produced the tracks on this mix have an original and futuristic sound, which is what drew me towards their music in the first place. Also surely many DJs might jump on some of these tracks eventually but they’ll have to hear it on a mix like this first.”

If you’re in Montreal, you can catch DJ Spaz on Thursdays at House - where they recently had DJ CZECH and LA RIOTS as guests – and at Coda’s Fix Fridays, one of Montreal’s biggest electro nights.

He’s jacked in the weekend residencies in favour of branching out of what can become a musical straight-jacket and getting out on the road, with Vancouver parties and an upcoming North American tour – can’t blame him really. Good luck with it Alex & keep us posted.
