This week, we have another tie, because I have gone equally silly in the head over both Maps and Fuck Buttons. Really – honestly - the rest of this week’s releases can go hang. It is sort of like being at a party with loads of ace faces but the only ones what exist for me are Maps & Fuck Buttons. So I am going to keep them all to myself in the kitchen and shan't let any of the other records have any punch. »
Christmas is a-coming so we've taken a look at a selection of seasonal offerings from the likes of Glasvegas, The Raveonettes and lots lots more...sleigh bells at the ready.»
Black Lips’ Cole Alexander and Jared Swilley assess a smattering of the week’s new singles. Check out the video for their forthcoming ‘Bad Kids’ and UK dates HERE. Their Single of the Week: Scarlett Johansson»
DiS went to South By Southwest 2008 and all we got were these photographs... and these words... and no sun burn this time... mercifully»
DrownedinSound's first singles round-up finds Anthony Hegarty flailing in Hercules & Love Affair's subdued leftfield house, dancing away his troubles like a bloated Gloria Estafan having forgotten her Fluoxetine. In a good way, though»
Dave 1, half of New York/Montréal electro-funk duo Chromeo, is talking to DiS from the comfort of his room at London’s K West hotel. He's in good spirits, telling Mike Diver: "If people want to laugh at us, that's cool... I laugh at a lot of music that I like, too!" »
DiS sends five of its finest out east for the first-ever Field Day festival. On-the-day gripes aside - beer and toilet queues being the biggest thorn in the debut festival's side - in hindsight the bill was one of the best around this summer. DiS gets stuck into it...»
Yes, we know: we’re late. But we’ve been busy, honest! It does happen from time to time – don’t go thinking that A Day In The Life Of DiS involves us all sitting around, drinking tea, listening to great music and occasionally – but only occasionally – updating this here website. Oh no sir, or madam – it’s a lot more complex than that. Why, only this morning we had tea and biscuits...»
It's like a festival having been circumcised, serving a purpose but lacking in providing anything much in the way of true enjoyment. With reams of tickets going spare in tight pockets, curling like thin-cleaved skin we begin the joyless, 12-hour odyssey home to bed. No sleep on concrete, no sleep on trains, with little to rationalise the ache...»
What’s that, looming on the horizon? Why, it’s another new festival, threatening to steal custom away from the other 3,459 day-long-or-more events clogging up the calendars of music lovers nationwide. But wait a second: Field Day is a) pretty blimmin’ special, and b) right on your doorstep. Well, so long as your doorstep’s in London, anyway. DiS’s is. Get in...»
Don’t want to read everything? Fair enough. In short, Primavera Sound ‘07 featured sun, sea, and almost no sand at all. There was some grass, and concrete, and a number of stages. Bands and DJs performed on them, and DiS danced. Yes, yes we did. And we didn’t get sunburned...»
Dot To Dot has happened. Been, gone, ain’t coming back for 12 or so flips of your tits ‘n’ ass Max Power calendar. Missed it? Too bad. We didn’t, and here is what we’re calling Some Words To Prove It. Or: Dot To Dot: the DiS Review...»
