Lets be honest working from home is awesome. What makes it better is getting to post to this site. As I explore the backlog of tracks that need to be posted here I run across a few B-I-S(Beats in Space) tracks that NEED to be up here.

Beats in Space is a weekly radio show hosted by Tim Sweeney in NYC on WNYU radio 89.1. Tuesdays from 10:30 till 1am he spins hot records and keeps the show rolling with guests from all over the land. This first track (a long one for you kids who need a lazy night away from DJing) is from some of my favorite DJs in the world. They are Irish, so i figured St Pattys day might be the best time to show off their skills. From the fabulous website “FeelMyBicep.com” comes BICEP

My second track comes from the one and FAMOUS “James Murphy”. This show was back in the early 2000s when James was relatively unknown in the big world but was awesomely famous with other DJs.

Yet again, Woolfy (of DFA, Permanent Vacation labels) comes to town this Friday, at Som Bar, with his space-disco beats in tow. Come to find out, this man is a party animal.  Looking forward to see what he has to offer!  Previously mentioned here before, I don’t think he will disappoint!

Selected Label Works 1 & 2 – A Christmas Present for You

Music | Posted by Aaron A
Dec 16 2010

This last weekend, I stumbled upon the compilation albums Selected Label Works 1 and Selected Label Works 2, by the Permanent Vacation label. I didn’t know much about the label or these 2 CD albums, but as I dived deeper into SLW 2 (I discovered the 2nd album first) I knew I had to find out more.  I was thrilled to find tracks and remixes by Woolfy and Tensnake, artists both of which I’ve mentioned before in previous posts.  Other favorites like Holy Ghost, Mock & Toof, and Junior Boys have remixes included on the albums.  Being a singles compilation, some might find it a bit weird to have the same track, albeit different versions, included on the album – but the way I see it, the boys at Permanent Vacation are just giving you the ability to decide for yourself which one is best.  Some of my favorites to enjoy:

Selected Label Works 1

I haven’t dived much into Lindstrom outside of his remix of LCD Soundsystem’s Tribulations:

But with his upcoming show at the Mezzanine in SF, I decided to check him out with a little more depth.  I’m glad I did.  Can’t wait to see what he’s going to drop at the show.

Disco Thoughts

Matt and I have been discussing how Disco music is making a comeback…manipulated and rebranded in the indie dance genre.  But the fundamentals are still there.  Back in August, while waiting for Woolfy (himself being described as Space Disco) to play at 222 Hyde, a great local artist DJ Conor remixed a great Disco track.  While I don’t have the version he played (not true, I have a low quality recording I made on my iPhone…probably not worthing listening to but still decent enough for me to remember the pleasurable experience), here is the original:

The saying “what goes around comes around” holds itself true in many different respects – apparently also in dance music!  And of course, the reason behind me making this discovery, Woolfy:
