DOWNPIPE
The tallest building in Dublin city was wired up with two huge 100,000 Euro screens. The combination of Underworld's unmistakable talent for drawing on primal energies and Mark Knight and D.Ramirez's unquestionable production skills and knowledge of the Dance Floor tells a powerful story that is ahead of the curve and pays off with a monster riff in the drop.

Thom Yorke has formed a new band with Joey Waronker, Mauro Refosco, Flea and Nigel Godrich. The band are going to play music from Thom’s album ‘The Eraser’ and the recently released tracks.
There are two shows scheduled for early October in Los Angeles. Thom spent some time in Los Angeles for a while now and there was a lot of speculation on what was going on… and now we know. A new band with drummer Joey Waronker, who played on most of Beck’s records. Mauro Refosco did percussion on records by David Byrne and Bebel Gilberto. Flea, the bass player of Red Hot Chili Peppers needs no introduction. And neither does long-time Radiohead producer Nigel Godrich, who also produced Thom Yorke’s releases.
The band will be playing live for two shows at the L.A. Orpheum Theatre.

THE FIRST DAYS OF SPRING
A film and album by Noah and the Whale, 'The First Days Of Spring' is the second album from Britishfour piece Noah And The Whale. Recorded by Emery Dobyns (Patti Smith, Antony & The Johnsons) the album sees the band opt for a slightly more melancholic sound than the summery feel of their debut.

RICEBOY SLEEPS
Several years in gestation, the Riceboy Sleeps project was first conceived as an outlet for Jonsi and his boyfriend Alex's visual art, resulting in the highly covetable 1,000 limited edition A6 book, printed in Iceland to highly exacting spec. Gallery shows and video installations followed, and with them the creation of the first dream-like soundscapes towards what would become this album. Recorded at home in between Sigur Rós commitments, the music took shape slowly, and suffered a near fatal setback when the computer on which it was all stored was dragged from the kitchen table in the days before Apple had magnetic power leads. Fortunately some nifty and painstaking keyhole surgery effected during a sojourn in Hawaii resulted in complete recovery of the splendid specimen soon to be before you

BURIAL VERSUS FOUR TET
Kieran Hebden, aka Four Tet, is all about collaboration, so it's not a surprise that he's teamed up with shadowy English dubstep crossover Burial, aka William Bevan. The results, "Moth" and "Wolf Cub," "Moth" finds Reichian Gamelan giving way to wooden percussion and subtle background pitch/vocal smears, with an echoing spaciousness that remains throughout. "Wolf Cub" digs into a deeper, stutter-stopping, chiming/ringing/thumping club zone. Both are super mellow: A thoroughly enjoyable mind-meld bearing the fingerprints of both makers, but that also manages to lead them someplace new.

BAT FOR LASHES - DANIEL
Daniel', the new single from Bat For Lashes was directed in Sweden by Johan Renck, he has previously directed videos for Madonna, Kylie, The Knife and New Order. Typically, his videos are dramatic stories filmed with a crisp eye and sharply edited. They are most distinctive, though, for their melancholic blue-green tint and strongly-lit chiaroscuro. Currently Renck is in pre-production for his first feature. Titled Downloading Nancy, it is a very dark story of a woman about to have herself killed by a man she meets on the Internet, but has doubts when she finds herself attracted to him. It stars Holly Hunter, William Hurt and Stellan Skarsgård.

A BLACK HEARTED LOVE
The first video from PJ Harvey and John Parish's 'A Woman A Man Walked By' has been lensed by British artists Jake and Dinos Chapman. The single 'Black Hearted Love' will be released on April 13th through Island Records. "We were both very excited that Jake and Dinos Chapman wanted to make a video for 'Black Hearted Love'. The result is beautiful, mysterious, surreal and enhances the song wonderfully," said PJ Harvey and John Parish of the video.
Nominated for the Turner Prize in 2003, The Chapman Brothers came to prominence as part of Charles Saatchi's Young British Artists, they exhibited at White Cube in 2008. The Chapman Brothers presented a suitably surreal treatment for the song, "We decided 'Black Hearted Love' deserved something haunting and enigmatic - yet brazen and colourful. Hence, a collision between an ominous forest and a garish bouncy castle seemed entirely appropriate... Working with Polly and John was an absolute pleasure."

ZERO
This new single, “Zero,” puts Yeah Yeah Yeahs’ old stuff to shame with its effortless confidence and deadly melody. I can throw every adjective I know at you, but I’d just be complicating the simple fact that this song is really, really good. Crazy catchy. You’re gonna listen to it 100 times before you realize you’re not breathing. The video is just as gripping. A surreal nighttime Tokyo — or is it NYC? Hong Kong? Any city… The world is your stage! — adventure, it starts with kung-fu movie overdubs and escalates through grocery cart races, street dancing and car stomping to its explosive ticker tape finish. Step past the red curtain and know that you’re never coming back.

Talk about an old technology embracing a new technology, these iPod cases made from old 45 RPM records literally do that. Made from a vinyl 45 with a clear plexiglass window and a cork liner, these iPod cases finally take those old records off the shelf and put them to good use. Note how the center hole of the record has been lined up exactly with the scroll wheel of the iPod.
These cool cases were made by Contexture Design, but unfortunately they are completely sold out of the 45 cases- although they still have (the significantly less exciting) blank cassette tape iPod Nano cases.
