Because best things in life aren't things.

Corps humain (ou forêt)
Dubbed heartbreak house, Nina Kraviz’s misspelled I’m Week is tender, solitary and critical-paranoiac manifestation of Moscow’s deep house at its best. Intimate yet undecipherable vocals and hazy synths create a dreamy and sensual atmosphere, an overall feeling is very similar to Desire’s If I can’t hold you. One is bound to get lost in the void melancholy of these late night yearnings.

Tender Debauchery
Once upon a midnight dreary, KZA untuned themselves into a binge of tender debauchery where only a few handsome souls have managed to come back. Gentle yet melancholic, Le Troublant Acid is the exaggerated recalling of a half-remembered euphoria. The B side, Mechanique wipes those dance-floor tears away, reminding that we are only biomechanical creatures and brings back the energy to the nostalgia infused psyche .
C’est une fille vraiment étrange,
Elle a les yeux orange,
Elle a les cheveux d’un ange,
C’est une fille très étrange.Venue des mondes qui dérangent
Moitié démon, mi-ange
Les yeux troublants, cheveux d’ange
C’est moi la fille très étrange

Selling secrets to the sky
DRESSCODE, a duo from Reims, France, have transformed Family of the Year’s folksy blend of electro-pop into a tribal journey narrated by hi-hats, cowbells and chopped-up vocals; It is an unpretentious remix that speaks for itself. Taking account all the s*** I receive everyday, they definitely deserve some myspace love. Bonne dégustation.

Divine Entropy
“The obscure we see eventually. The completely obvious, it seems, takes longer.”
— Edward R. Murrow
German electronic producer Hendrik Weber / Pantha du Prince is known for his melodic arrangements of organized noise. His music is abstract, primitive and devoid from all preconceptions. He is the Jackson Pollock of the techno world exploring psycho-acoustics with abstract expressionist textures and patterns. His latest LP Black Noise is, without a doubt, one of the most original albums of 2010. Technically “black noise” is any sound that has a frequency below human hearing limit; Therefore for us, Black Noise is silence or something we can’t perceive it even though its staring us right in the face. You can grab The Splendour, which is also from the LP Black Noise, from here.
