There’s a new minimalist movement coming and it will be fronted by Emika and James Blake. This is why less is more when it comes to music. Taking an electronic sound and stripping it sound to its minimal bareness is essential in evoking a moody melody. Deep ha? Just listen.

Introducing… Nick Pes
1We have scoured the web to find a biography of Nick Pes, one of our latest muses, and all that could find is a small introductory paragraphy. What you need to know is that he is the latest Aussie export to usher in some more glamazon-electro beats that will definitely make you dance. Now, here’s that little synopsis: “Since the disbandment of ‘Leechwife’, the rock outfit he once wrote and performed with, Nick began experimenting with music he could make by himself. A couple years later and Nick’s exploration into electronic music has lead to the creation of a number of electronic slash pop slash dance slash genre-less tracks. He sounds a little bit like this, a little bit like that and a little bit like something you’ve never heard before. The Cinaesthesia EP was released in September 2010.”
Details, official cover art of Moby’s new album “Destroyed” revealed!
1Moby is set to unleash his 10th album on us this May. The majority of the recording was done while Moby was touring. He’d stay up in his hotel room because of his insomnia and work on music at times like at 2 in the morning. He said “it seemed as if everyone else in the world is sleeping.” Any music he did not finish he would take back with him to his apartment and finish it there with the range of quarky instruments he owned. His friends Emily Zuzik, Inyang Bassey, and Joy Malcom as well as Moby himself all sang on the record. Musically, Moby summed it up as “broken down melodic electronic music for empty cities at 2 am.” He says the title of the album makes sense when he listens to the music.

Sexy Track: “Pink Cloud” by Sam Sparro
Sam Sparro took us all by surprise with his first single “Black & Gold.” His debut also had a lot to offer. Now, following in the footsteps of Alphabeat, Sam Sparro has gone and breathed air into a sub-genre that hasn’t quecnched out thirst just yet. Early 90s’ house music might not have been the birth of electronic music, but it surely brought elements like fashion and dance into it. This song is a revival of that sounds that put more bass in Christy Turlington‘s walk than anything before fashion became frail and insipid with the heroine chic movement. This is a nasty gay dance beat that you won’t be to get over. You can download it here for free.
