Stumbled across these amazing posters on Blanka, yet another image gallery/archive to drain more of my time gawking in astonishment. They were created by Arrival, a small design studio based in Dublin, Ireland. Love these colors and the way they are sequenced, but the idea behind these designs is equally intriguing when you take a […]
I woke up at 10 or so on Jakub’s couch, surprised my ears weren’t ringing from all the dub sub hubbub from last night. I was able to get my act together in time to meet back up with Grant, Angelica and Matt of Body Language, the subjects of the day’s scheduled photo shoot, who […]

Finally getting some time to sit down and reflect on last weekend, which I spent in NYC, a mix of business and pleasure, a photo shoot with Body Language, and a series of serious musical adventures. Friday, I got into Brooklyn on a tight schedule but fortunately with a little time to spare…the tentative plan […]
Got a wonderful treat for you ambient fans, I was given the privilege of hosting a podcast showcasing my favorite picks from Moodgadget’s ambient releases, past, present and future. It was up exclusively on ISO50 this past Friday, and it will be released on iTunes and/or through moodgadget.com soon. I had been working on a […]
Here are some tracks to narrate your ultra late nights, after all the ambient lounge music has taken its course, and everyone is on the floor in a sexed-out substance-induced coma looking like a Fiona Apple or Deftones music video. I might add that it’s all emanating from the eminent mecca of culture right now, […]

Possible taglines for today’s post include: “Music by robots, for robots, about robots” and “Tunes for days where you don’t want to be at work and would rather be home playing videogames.” Today’s picks have been dug from deep within my music collection. Futuristic, often glitchy at times, each feature a purposefully artificial, robotically-manipulated take […]
For all of you guys on Facebook (and who isn’t these days), there’s an iTunes Indie Spotlight: Dance & Electronic Sampler with 20 free tracks, you have to become a fan to get a code, then it should open iTunes and download automatically. Clicking the main image or the link above should take you there. […]
This is one album I picked up last year and definitely didn’t give enough time to listen to all the way through. Upon going through it again this morning, I’ve realized that it’s a great mix of disco house when it was just called disco, definitely worth posting about. Gilles Peterson of Radio 1 mixed […]
I came across Pogo in the comments of one of Jakub’s music posts on ISO50, he is an Australian musician who mixes chillout and trip-hop styles, in this case sampling almost exclusively from Disney’s Alice in Wonderland. Luckily for you, his aptly titled Wonderland EP is up for free on his last.fm page. I didn’t […]

This is one showdown I can’t decide a winner for, so I’m opening the table up to anyone who might be reading or listening. Post up your thoughts if you have any! I think these artists both compose soundscapes that could be compared in a showdown-type fashion, both have a sound that is most definitely […]
