DOWNLOAD: DJ Bitman - My Computer Is Funk
Chilean artist Jose "Toto" Romero is self-taught and proud of it. He crafts a cowboy mix of everything that sizzles under the sun- reggae, rap, funk, soul, blues, jazz, etc... The result- electro latin lounge grooves with a splash of panache and hip-hop attitude- has propelled him far within South American borders. Today, we bring a bit of his funky, synthed out grind state-side - with "My Computer Is Funk" and "Shine." So put down that caipirinha with lime and dance, god damn it.

The Tale of The Roundtable Knights
Once upon a time, in a land far far away, called Switzerland, there once was a jazz festival, called Montreux. Each year the world's best performers would travel far and wide to alight the stages of Montreux and show symphonies of sound over rowdy and eager crowds of music lovers.
One night, two knights of noise, hailing from Bern, stood on their throne of a DJ booth and performed in the club floor. One by one, the audience fell into a trance as the duo's pulsing beats filtered through the crowd. Most stayed till sunrise. Others left with their electro-house tunes still buzzing in their ears. The rest is stuff of legends. Only pictures try to tell a decent tale (Check it out HERE). The other remants of their majesty are witnessed in the track below.
Sounds Like: Crookers, Justice, Modeselektor

DOWNLOAD: The Qemists feat. Mike Patton - Long Weekend (The Quemists Got Your Money Remix)
Bad-ass spirals of sound- pulsing, quaking, urging you to sprint forward and take over the world. With
3 men, 2 decks and 2 laptop, The Quemists beast out solid electro energizers like this one. Their remix of "Long Weekend" is bound to be a videogame theme song- involving race cars or something else fast, furious, or demonic. We're psyched to rage to their tunes with a cult of other electro lovers at Les Ardentes Festival in Liege, Belgium tomorrow.
SOUNDS LIKE: State of Mind, TC, MSTRKRFT

Hyperactive Youth Unite
Rise up, you ADD monsters, you Ritalin-addled little fuckers, unite! We've got your anthem right there. It's Hyperactive by Malente & Dex, out in August on Exploited,the super cool German label who brought you Siriusmo's classic Allthegirls.
There's even a trailer for the 12":
Bobmo, who's the most hyper of us all (when he's not the most sleepy of us all), remixed the track and it's a "banger", as they say, and you can stream it NOW:
EXCLUSIVE DOWNLOAD: Mixel Pixel - I See You In The Mirror + MORE

Weeeeeeeeeee.....Don't the members of Mixel Pixel make Coney Island look so good? (At least I think that's Coney Island above). Well- while most of you NYCers head down with coconuts and fish scales pasted to your special parts for Coney Island's Mermaid Parade this weekend (June 21st baby), we're bringing you some Mixel Pixel Exclusives to listen to along the way. It's equally appropriate because like the gallivanting s/he-men in Coney Island, this Brooklyn band has a sense of quirky sense of humor. For instance, according to our ears, in "I See You In The Mirror," - they sing the weirdest pick-up line ever: "My heart is a fajita and I don't know what to do; I feel like I am always crushing into you." Meanwhile, No Contracts brings a digital dance vibe to mundane banter about releases and rent checks. Jump, jive and jiggle to the tracks below.

Alizée - Fifty-Sixty (David Rubato Remix): the VIDEO
Blame it on late planes and missed connections. Blame it on missing codecs. Blame it on the boogie. Here is the Alizée x David Rubato video. Directed by Rebecca Zlotowski. Art direction by House of Kids.
Shadow Dancer x Das Glow x Berlin x INS x BNR
Not too long ago, we did a Boys Noize vs. Institubes party in Berlin. I could try and write a short story, a hundred bars, or 6.000 signs recounting the events of the night but you know what? I'm not a writer, not a rapper and not a journalist. Fortunately, Das Glow (who is not a filmmaker, all evidence pointing to the contrary notwithstanding) did one of his mind-melting video reports and you know what they say: a Das Glow video is worth a thousand Pynchon novels.
We're bringing the INS vs. BNR party to Paris in September...
Boys Noize's eponymous label is releasing a new Shadow Dancer single this month and along with the original and a Strip Steve remix, there's a massive Das Glow remix, streamable right here:
