Basic Online Social Engagement

It sucks being a small business all the time. You don’t have the tools, resources or the money to develop all these crazy ideas you want to experiment with, like the super hybrid thing you wanted to do involving every single social media application out there. Heck, I’m still trying to emulate Toys R Us’Continue reading “Basic Online Social Engagement”

Groove Armada’s new Album ‘Black Light’

Groove Armada. They would be the last group you’d guess hearing tracks from their latest album Black Light. I freaked out in the car after first hearing Warsaw on Triple J that it was by these cheeky fellas. They’ve completely changed their style, but it is one hell of a welcoming change. Groove Armada doingContinue reading “Groove Armada’s new Album ‘Black Light’”

Grasscut – Muppet (Nathan Fake Remix)

One of my favourite radio station programs, Triple J’s Soundlab,  is full of amazing surprises, and last night didn’t fail to deliver. They played a remix of a track by an experimental UK group Grasscut and I was completely floored by how fucking eerily good it was, especially towards the second half of the song.Continue reading “Grasscut – Muppet (Nathan Fake Remix)”

Before Cut Copy were Cut Copy

All the way back in 2001, before their popular dance electro albums Bright Like Neon Love and In Ghost Colours, Cut Copy released their first EP titled I Thought of Numbers. It contained 7 tracks, some of which reminded me of something the Avalanches would’ve done. Six or so years later, they would play aContinue reading “Before Cut Copy were Cut Copy”

The MFA – The Difference It Makes

The MFA (Motherfucking Allstars) are London-based duo Rhys Evans (Welsh) and Alastair Douglas (not Welsh). This is the song that made them popular and look as promising as the Chemical Brothers. Minimalistic electro dance is probably the easiest way I can describe this.

Social Media: A Simple Analogy

This is an attempt for me to better understand the concept of social media and try to explain it in simple terms. A lot of businesses are misinterpreting the concept of social media. Rather than seeing it as a platform to interact/ socialise, they see it more as a medium to propagate self-serving news. InContinue reading “Social Media: A Simple Analogy”

Runaway by GRUM (Dr Detroit Video Mashup)

This is seriously funky! An old Dan Aykroyd film (Dr Detroit) was mashed up to accompany ‘Runaway’ by GRUM. In case you were curious, the movie involved pimps and prostitutes. And yes, that’s Fran Drescher! Love the whole dance scene towards the end of this clip, the 80s porno-esque looks and the groovy synth beats.Continue reading “Runaway by GRUM (Dr Detroit Video Mashup)”
