Krautrock – The Rebirth Of Germany from Dood Lijk on Vimeo.

Documentary which looks at how a radical generation of musicians created a new German musical identity out of the cultural ruins of war. Between 1968 and 1977 bands like Neu!, Can, Faust and Kraftwerk would look beyond western rock and roll to create some of the most original and uncompromising music ever heard. They shared one common goal – a forward-looking desire to transcend Germany’s gruesome past – but that didn’t stop the music press in war-obsessed Britain from calling them Krautrock. KRAFTWERK FTW!

Drivers Seat (DJ Apt One Edit)

time and again i catch myself playing a few of my 80ies favourites, that just go so well with cheesy high school movies and long haired dudes, that do awesome things in epic 80ies movies, and that spirit transfers right to the dancefloor. a few random tunes that do not need a remix or anything else, they just go great in any mix, especially if you are in the middle of playing brand spanking new music with a cutting edge feel, this just evens the geekiness out and gives it a funny contrast.

the djs (the ones that put on a show) know what i am talking about

Romantics – What I Like About You

Don Henley – The Boys Of Summer

Stevie Nicks – Edge of Seventeen

The Knack – My Sharona

And thats the right tshirt to wear when listening to these type of tunes / when dancing of your frustration because your parents just dont understand you / when you are polishing your Trans Am Firebird /  and when you have to fight the school bully in order to a) win the heart of your sweethert or b) travel back to the future

Taken from their new album “When Animals stare”.

One of the few bearable Mashup tunes these days.. naw i’m kidding there are still brilliant ones out there, as long as they don’t use the same old same old overheard Jacko, Daft Punk etc . This is one of these tunes that sound so elegantly perfect that you do not even recognize it as a mashup. We all remember “the song” it from 4 years back when Mark Ronsons Smith meets Motown cover version of ‘Stop Me’ went to the top of the charts. Here is the original Smiths vocal from the 80ies mixed in a Roots manner. Enjoy

Chocomang – Stop Me (The Smiths vs Rootical Record Crew)

It has been 4 years since her last album and a good 2 year since her last memorable guest appearance (Wilco, Ben Gibbard, Grizzly Bear). Feist’s first track of her new album is out now and its a laid back, mellow tune even more than you would expect. I am really glad there is a new Feist album on the horizon and that her music still has that sincere, honest feel to it. New Album “Metals” / Release Date Sept 30th
