So like July was hectic with ABSLOUT SUPERSTAR. Still managed to pick some choice cutz  @ AudioPorn Central on downtime. Here’s what pricked up the ears of this self-confessed melancholic. As always you can grab the official chart after the jump

#01 iamamiwhoami – t [link]
Okay, so maybe it’s replaced the cling-film with tin-foil, but it’s still freakin’ genius.
#02 O.Children– album preview [link]
If you Dig Lazarus Dig!!, you’ll dig the the Dead Disco Dancer, album drops in the Fall,
#03 This Is Head – 0011 (Kasper Björke version [link]
Minimal toe-tapping punkstep
#04 MUNK – Down in L.A. (Them Jeans remix) [link]
It’s a grower, but definitely worth the effort…
#05 Pheugoo – Hometown Bitch [link]
Luv the intro, luv the way it unfolds, luv it period!
#06 Clock Opera – A Piece of String (Mickey Moonlight Remix) [link]
dark & moody, just the way I like it

Unleash your inner cowboy, yee-haw!!!!

Press play, then drive…
#09 MGMT – It’s Working (Air Remix) [link]
Shade’s of Suicide goin’ on here, and I mean that in a good way…

Swiss fashion/culture magazine Edelweiss,
recommend INTRO/VERSION in their January issue.

“Phil Retrospector, poète du «mashup»
Nancy Sinatra, David Bowie, Amy Winehouse, David
Lynch, Nina Simone, Johnny Cash, les Beatles et
Nirvana… réunis ici, tous ensemble, comme vous ne
les avez jamais entendus. Tentant? Champion mélancolique
du mashup (l’art de coller deux morceaux
l’un sur l’autre et d’en faire naître un troisième
par une réaction de chimie sonore), l’Irlandais Phil
Retrospector l’a fait. Ludique, poétique et superbement
entêtant, son album Intro/Version rassemble ses créations de ces
dernières années. Avec l’humour en prime sur Elton’s Glasses, où Elton John
se love dans les violons de Philip Glass. Fabuleux.’




HAPPY NEW YEAR
