Morten Breum ft. Rebecca and Fiona - Larva (Far Away)

when it gets frigid and rainy i like to have some pounding trance for long walks in the east coast rain. feels appropriate somehow? can't listen to moombahton in the rain. 
lies no one has ever not wanted to listen to moombahton EVER. 

REBECCA AND FIONA


just listen to those sweet voices. 
enjoy your rain friends.

long time.

'sbeen a while now han't it. miss me?
*cricket*
how has it taken me this long to find the greatest Australian things around?

KITO + REIJA LEE


Kito in particular. considering this aussie gal has released tings on Skream's label AND diplo's label ... what have i been so distracted by that it caused me to miss this duo 
(probably shiny things)
there's a big ol boost on her facebook page, read up here and she'll tell you how legitimately fresh she is. valid point. 

their kickin Sweet Talk EP is very rebecca & fiona-style, with sharp percussion, mad bass, melodic trance synths and haunting female voices. exactly what we like. 





if you're a sorta Icona Pop, Purity Ring, Rebecca&Fiona type like me, dig in PLEASE. 
i haven't found one thing by Kito that's less than perfect. 


YOUR TASK: 
1) find the youtube videos for all the songs on the Sweet Talk EP
2) enter the links in to offliberty.com
3) mad payoff


ENJOY. happy summer ducks.

DJ FRESH again.


thank goodness for some new
DJ FRESH
his new single is more electro house than the usual drum&bass which we would expect, but i think we're quite alright with that. 
super fun and summery with a killer drop and some spicy electro vibes.
textbook. 
what attracted me MUCH more however is this video of him performing live in camden.

the official single feels like more of a classic "Dizzee Rascal + (insert name of DJ)" track (see Calvin Harris, see Armand Van Helden) and although we always love this classic recipe, this video lends you a glance into a hidden side of the track.
in 4 minutes it has more time to build, you get a wonderful RnB vocalist in the intro and more of that killer indie funk guitar. 
so special to see a DJ who not only sings his own chorus, but has a loose "band" feel to his live shows. feels like everyone's sort of rolling around the stage individually, and Fresh just brings em all together. 
if i could see one DJ live. this man. 


in other news... i'm just casually sitting here full of wistful longing for the Electric Daisy Carnival in Vegas. we're talking about the greatest intergalactic tea party of EDM featuring (but not limited to):
Fedde le Grand, Alesso, Kaskade, Afrojack, Ingrosso, Blue Man Group, Steve Aoki, Tiesto, Avicii, Calvin Harris, Bassnectar, Dada Life, David Guetta, Pretty Lights, Chris Lake, will.i.am, Hardwell, Knife Party, Martin Solveig, Steve Angelo, Benni Benassi, MSTRKRFT, Datsik, Flux Pavilion, Laidback Luke, Adventure Club, High Contrast, Zed's Dead, Doctor P, and everything good in this world.
not to mention Rebecca and Fiona roaming around enjoying themselves, (and probably supporting Kaskade) and filling Vegas with their Swedish charm. 
i'll just sit here burning with envy.


if you're there, soak up some trance for me and send me a dish sponge full of it. 
much appreciated.
cheers lovely.

them swedes...

(i was tempted to rhyme swedes with bee's knees in the title of this post... 
there are times when i feel terribly sorry for whoever has to put up with my writing)


REBECCA & FIONA
(or... if you want to find better videos on youtube, Rebecca och Fiona. 
cheers to all of us learning pretty languages together.)


enter two fair maidens: Rebecca & Fiona, 
the prime new DJ duo hailing from Stockholm, of course. where else would you find those cheek bones and pulsing pop sounds.


their album, "I Love You, Man" only recently dropped, but you've heard them on Kaskade's new album and all around the swedish club scene. those haunting and quiet voices perfectly juxtapose their dry snares and persistent bass, with many layers of inseparable magical synths. listen a little harder and you can just make out that perfect swedish accent peeking through when they pronounce words like walk or talk. 


the album's got it all. even spank rock is on there (more swedes! whee!)
"Dance" has some dirty sub with twinkly synths and... yes those are strings! 
"Hard" is a soon-to-be dance anthem with... crap just listen to it.


  I think if ever they did anything with robyn i think i'd collapse into a swede-induced coma.



Plastic breakfast, platform creepers, pumpkin hair and turtlenecks?
I have no other words.
Cheers.
