Hasta Luego, Soundboy
28Feb08Last week I had some family come through town, so it was an appropriate time to clean up. Doing so, I found my copy of Groove Armada’s Soundboy Rock. It had been a long time since I had given this album a good listening too, and was reintroduced to the mysticism of Big Beat and [...]

Mass Hystereo
23Feb08Hystereo is Conor Murphy and Jack Byrne, two producer/DJ’s out of Dublin, Ireland; I have been keeping an eye on them since the release of their album Corporate Crimewave which caught my attention with its semblance to French house with a touch of nasty distortion.
