I was out of town, in the Bay Area, last week. I am back, and listening to some cool remixes of Depeche Mode tracks. Good stuff.
I did not get to the Sub Swara show. It was a matter of financial consideration, because a taxi from The Fillmore to Burlingame would have paid for a steak dinner for two at Ruth’s Chris. I’ll see them, someday.
Surprising lack of new music this week, though it’s hardly a drought. I might not be as behind as I feared.
Tune in Thursday!

New, exclusive track from Shigeto, available soon from Ghostly International as a White Label Limited 12″ available May 31st
New album from DJ Shadow is just around the corner. Wacky video for the title track, I Gotta Rokk, is available now.
So the lads from Sub Swara, one of the cutting-edge electronic groups out of New York, are having a show at The Fillmore Theater in San Fransisco. It just so happens I’ll be there that day, and it just so happens they had some extra tickets. Guess who noticed this on Twitter?
Looking forward to a pretty epic show. Will report back!
Normally I’m not a big fan of these electro tunes, but the track is pretty interesting and the video is well done also:
DJ Cam is probably the only French DJ anyone has really heard of, and Chris James is the voice and some of the musical talent behind Stateless. Both of them have worked with DJ Shadow. They’re now collaborating for a track. See the video:
