DOWNLOAD: Kids on TV - Cockwolves (Mind Transit Remix)
First of all, it's kinda made our day that we get to feature a song called "Cockwolves." F* yeah. But more importantly, it gives us great pleasure to introduce Toronto's Kids On TV. Imagine a brasher, co-ed version of Datarock, hyped up on energy drinks, spitting out punk lyrics over techno pulses. There are wolf cries on "Cockwolves". Meanwhile "Raw Raw Raw" (Kids on TV vs. Glamor Soundsystem) has an addictive Justice-esque 'new french touch' edge- filled with 1980's electro-house glitches, laser zaps, rap-speak....and....cowbell.
Crazy Facts about Kids On TV??
1) Two of the members met while performing burlesque.
2) They perform crazy live shows in weird places like steambathes (and have performed with artists like Ladytron, Crystal Castles and Dandi Wind).
3) They proudly call their music "queercore punk" and rumor is myspace tried to censor their site once. It didn't go over well.
4) Two members go by "Minus Smile" and "Wolf" so we really don't know what to believe. Regardless, we dig it and want to hear more.
SOUNDS LIKE: Justice, Dandi Wind, Datarock.

Annie Mac!
Everybody knows we're crushing hard on Annie Mac, so we're quite proud to have had two artists featured on her Radio 1 show lately:
Surkin did a 47-tracks 5-minutes minimix last week.
Drop The Lime (aka Curses!) just did one as well, clocking at 36 tracks in the mandatory five minutes.
If you have a hard time listening to the show from the BBC site (real player???), some helpful dudes uploaded them respectively here and here.
Futurella
The IE999 Euroganza came to an apocalyptic end yesterday in Brussels and I'm sure photos and camphone videos are floating around, but I have something else to show you. Das Glow is not only our resident technomeister, not only an accomplished jeweler, he's also a budding photo- and videographer with a patented paranoia-inducing editing technique. Witness this amazing piece of cinematography, chronicling a party at Snowbombing Festival, in Austria, last month. Featuring Orgasmic & Das Glow also known as Der Gaga.
Happy Birthday Cuizi Cuiz
Real quick: today is Cuizinier's birthday, so please saran-wrap your best wishes and your finest bitches, stick a purple satin bow on top and send it all to the Cuizi Mansion. He will appreciate.
And Cuizinier has a new street-tape coming up, the third and last one, Godfather-style.
And you know what, it's still produced by ORGASMIC who's still the most stylish DJ ever (ask him to show you the new 2-Tone-vs-SK8-vs-Kid'n-Play sneakers he copped at Alife LA).
Teasers and leaks abound: our friends at The Fader posted this one some time ago:
Quand tu m'aimes (being a love song AND a wake up call to Dipset)
And this was yesterday, in Geneva:
PARANOIA IS A MUST.

Institubes Express 999 - The Second Voyage
We have a pretty cool post coming up: Para One's video tour diary, featuring all the INS boys slapsticking their way through North America. But yesterday we went straight from Coachella (more on this later) to Geneva to kick off our trans-Europe IE999 mini-tour: Bobmo, Das Glow, Surkin, Para One, Curses!, Jean Nipon and Orgasmic, Geneva-London-Brussels, three cities, three parties but also three limited 7" singles and three limited t-shirts. All info HERE.
Let me show you the records in their Voltron-esque glory:
David Rubato feat. Teki Latex and Manda Djinn - "Institubes Express 999" remixed by Tacteel, Jean Nipon and Bobmo.
And the tees, designed by local heroes Jiro Bevis, The ERS and Schönwehrs:
Geneva was crazy, very packed, very loud, very warehouse. Today will be even louder, as we invade Fabric (room two) all night long (plus in-store at Puregroove). And tomorrow we're in Brussels at Recyclart (plus in-store at Veals 'n' Geeks). Might be fun.

DOWNLOAD: 77Klash - Mad Again
Old school reggae beats, high energy pulses of electro-rock, go-go, and hip hop. You need an infectious song for summer? An excuse to dance naughty? A lesson in lyrics? This track is da one.
I met the Jamaican-hailing, Brooklyn-living Mikkel "Gize" Burrowes, (i.e. 77Klash, which is pronounced two seven klash) in the chaos of The Fader Tent in Austin this spring. He threw a CD in my bag. I promised to listen. When I did, my ears buzzed, feet tapped, head spun- and the rest is history. This track's from The Swarm, with 77Klash spitting and dancehall icon Johnny Osbourne riding on the chorus.
Thank me later. Dance first.
SOUNDS LIKE: Jah Dan, Dutty Artz, Ghislain Poirier
