  7. Hip-pop? It’s BYOB.

    Newcomer BYOB, or 22-year-old Ash Hamilton to his friends, has stormed onto the UK hip-pop scene with his blend of frantic drum ‘n bass beats, vocoders and trance-like synth stabs. Ash talks to Disorder about his new single, video and getting his balls on YouTube…for the second time. When did you realise that music was... Read More »

Their debut single ‘Offline Dexterity’ b/w ‘Streetlight Chronicle’ is out on Moshi... Read More »

  17. Can Hares cut it?

    When a press release informs you of a band’s appearance at an ‘apt time’ this generally means that record labels have seen the huge success of a genre and are desperately scrabbling about to cash in on it. Hares might well fit into this cynical viewpoint considering the recent fad of folk-soaked indie saturating the... Read More »

  21. Why we love…Ratatat

    If I was to jest at a juxtaposition of instrumental electro flavoured hip-hip with smatterings of Brian May then I doubt it would inspire resounding interest. Through the medium of their fourth release, conveniently named LP4, Ratatat have crafted such a sound that’s as charming as it’s compelling. LP4 leans from stadium glam-rock to thumping...

  27. Example

    Example Example, or Elliot Gleave to his mates, is now an unavoidable presence on the charts with his new punchy electro take on his previous sound. He’s a rapper, a singer, a writer and a very very nice man even though he’s now an extraordinarily busy one. ‘Watch The Sun Come Up’, ‘Won’t Go Quietly’... Read More »

  29. Chase and Status

    With one full-length album under their belts along with a string of acclaimed remixes and praise from the likes of Snoop, Jay Z, Andy C and Pharrell, production duo Chase & Status couldn’t have had a more formidable rise from their roots from the underground urban scene in Manchester. I caught up with Saul for... Read More »

  31. CHROMEO, CAMP Basement, London, 29 June

    Whoever in the band came up with the ‘Chrom-ee-oh, o-oh!’ chant, the one pointedly bellowed at them before gigs and borrowed from the imaginatively titled Intro from their last album, is clearly some sort of evil genius and, as they are a two-piece, means there’s 50/50 odds on either one of them having Bond-killing, laser-on-the-moon-pointed-at-the-Earth...

  33. John Foxx @ The Roundhouse

    The legendary Roundhouse, with a cleaner, more respectable look than in its former days, is full of all types of characters from fifty year old ex-punks to curious eighteen year old science students. Everyone is eagerly anticipating the entrance of one man who shaped electronic music for years to come… John Foxx. Each member of... Read More »

    TWO BOYS, ONE FESTIVAL Stephane: Something or someone tried to jinx me and stop me from going to Download this year.

  39. Primavera Sound Festival 2010 Part 2

    Click Here for Part 1! Saturday Frazzled, forlorn but not completely fucked, the last day of the festival came around pretty quickly and it was a case of getting straight back on the wagon for Real Estate. The unassuming New York surf-pop four piece provided a genteel start to the evening, followed by a disappointing... Read More »

  41. Primavera Sound Festival 2010 Part 1

    I think it’s a safe assumption to make that most of the crowd at Primavera Sound 2010 had a tiny little bit of their heart washed away into the Barcelona sea, half-beating and withered inside an empty Don Simon sangria carton. This might be because every element of Primavera is pretty much perfect. It’s set... Read More »

  43. Dead Confederate @ the Barfly, Camden. 1/6/10.

    Strolling casually onstage with lights dimmed and smoke-machines billowing, Georgia’s Dead Confederate launch into a ferocious and manically driven performance of feedback, noise and utterly brain-melting volume. This is the sound of violence. But it’s beautiful violence. Mixing elements of desolate Southern dirge rock with early 90s shoegaze, it’s easy to see why the band... Read More »

  45. Dot To Dot Part 1

    DOT TO DOT Festival Manchester The inner city festival has become almost a staple part of the U.K festival circuit but, arguably, you could attribute its roots with Dot To Dot festival. Started in 2005, it’s now into its fifth year and stretches across Bristol, Nottingham and Manchester. In theory it eradicates all the leg... Read More »

  47. Dot To Dot Festival ~ Part 2

    Dot to Dot: Manchester Part 2 Washed Out is a lucid affair, completely and utterly aptly named. The splashes of ambient, electronic pop are indeed onomatopoeic of the waves washing up onto the shore of a beach. They create a fusion of tropical beats and soaring harmonies and it’s mostly effective, it’s the first time... Read More »
