Four Tet- ROUNDS

As of April 2008, Rounds is Four Tet's highest-reviewed release on Metacritic, where it is ranked #4 on the list of best albums of 2003.
Online music magazine Pitchfork Media placed Rounds at number 123 on their list of top 200 albums of the 2000s.


File:Four Tet - Rounds.jpgThis 2003 album is already a classic! Four Tet is the name used by Kieran Hebden for his experimental electronic solo efforts, to differentiate from his work with the post-rock band Fridge. Hebden’s solo work typically utilises samples lifted from various sources including hip-hop, electronica, techno, jazz, and folk mixed with his own guitar playing. His music is notable for its rich, organic sounds and harmonious melodies as well as for eschewing the traditional pop-song format in favour of a more abstract approach. A must have!

D33J: TIDE SONGS EP

D33J: TIDE SONGS EP



This new EP from LA beat smith D33J IS extremely, extremely rare. Put simply, D33j makes music that is just really hard not to enjoy. From the faint yet uplifting melodies of “Park (Tape Version)” to the jolting orgasmic synths that make up ”Reever’s Edge,” Tide Songs is an outer space ride through psychedelic soundscapes, pulsating drum kicks, and luscious voice samples. A combination of elements that when mixed together right–as done so in this EP here–it makes for a nirvana-like experience. Open up your ears and prepare yourself for instant ecstasy:

The NEW DEAL is calling it quits....

Just got some sad news on the wire... One of my absolute favorite bands to see live is shutten er down….



After 12 years of bringing their untz-style dance party to the world, the New Deal has decided to call it quits. Here’s the official announcement from Darren, Dan and Jamie:
 has decided that 2011 will mark the end of a spectacular 12-year career.
It has been an amazing run for the band and we appreciate the loyal and dedicated tND fanbase across North America and Asia. Our individual lives have taken very different paths with family, living abroad, and other various projects. We have come to a point where the time and commitment that it takes to maintain our band at its best is no longer possible. As a group, we’ve never been known to go halfway, so we have decided to end things with a great run of summer and fall shows that we hope to be the best yet.
Over the next several months, TND will return to the East Coast. The final Summer and Fall 2011 shows will bring us to many of our favourite places in the US and Canada, and we’re looking forward to finishing things off in a big way.
We look forward to each and every one of these very special shows. Our fans have been fantastically devoted and supportive, and we hope to give them a final run of performances that will be truly memorable.
In addition to the summer shows and festivals already announced, we expect to add a few more dates to give as many fans as possible the opportunity to see us play together one last time.
Thank you!
This is a all request show played the night before nye in nyc. Its soundboard and they were rocking a ton of covers but still doing what The New Deal does... which is bringing the dance party!!
