SummersRadio™ 500th Post!!! Classic! Model 500!
SummersRadio™ 500th Post!!! Classic! Model 500 - 'Neptune' Today we hit a milestone - our 500th post - and in less than a year - hoo-ray!! It seems fitting to begin the celebration with a classic - so a song featuring the 'Godfather Of Techno' is apt. Model 500 is a pseudonym for Juan Atkins - who is largely credited as the originator of techno - Detroit techno in particular - along with Derrick May and Kevin Saunderson.
'Neptune' is the third song on the five track 'Sonic Sunset' EP - which was released in 1994 on the legendary Belgian label R & S Records - and it's nothing short of an incredible piece of music that sounds just as amazing today.
This is a great weekend for concerts in Vancouver - last night Germany's techno/ minimal/ tech house duo Booka Shade (who've also recorded on the R & S label) performed an excellent live show at 560 - tonight I'm off to SHAHdj's 4th Anniversary party featuring Blu Mar Ten at the Red Room - and tomorrow synth pop pioneers the Human League are at the Rickshaw! So it's a busy weekend then, but I will post more tunes to celebrate our 500th post soon.
So join us in celebrating SummerRadio™'s exploits across Earth - and beyond :) - this is Model 500's 'Neptune'... Enjoy!

SummersRadio™ New Compilation! Mo's Ferry Great Cinema Show!
SummersRadio™ New Compilation! Mo's Ferry Great Cinema Show! Luka & Lazo - 'Dust No. 4' (Barem Remix) Mo's Ferry Prod. is a German minimal house label currently based in Berlin - and their new compilation is called 'Mo's Ferry Great Cinema Show'!
The compilation features 15 tracks including this classic from Luka & Lazo - 'Dust No.4' (Barem Remix) - which was first released as a single in 2007. Luka & Lazo are Luka Cipek and Ivica Lazarevic - a duo from Zagreb Croatia.
This song is a great club tune to get lost in. Although booming in nature, it starts off rather subtley - but once you're a couple minutes in - it dawns on you what a great groove this is! This is the 'Barem Remix' of 'Dust No. 4'... Enjoy!

SummersRadio™ New Music! DJ Shadow!
SummersRadio™ New Music! DJ Shadow - 'Sad And Lonely' Well it's been a long time coming, but DJ Shadow's new studio album - his fourth - is released on September 27th! (Oct. 3rd in Europe) It's called 'The Less You Know, The Better' - the cd will feature 17 tracks and the download version has 19 - the cd has one song not on the download version - and the download has three songs not on the cd.
'The Less You Know, The Better' is somewhat of a return to the style of his classic debut album 'Endtroducing...' in that the songs on the record are largely made from obscure samples. 'Sad And Lonely' is the fifth song on the new album and it features the vocals of Susan Reed. (Thanks Roeland - Cheers!)
Susan Reed was a singer, harpist and zitherist who was popular in the New York folk scene in the 1940's - in 1945 Life magazine dubbed her 'the pet of Manhattan nightclubbers'. In the process of trying to find the singer to clear the sample, Shadow discovered that she had died just a week before - on April 25th 2010. In the end they located her husband and son who gave their approval after hearing the song.

SummersRadio™ Concert News! EMA!
SummersRadio™ Concert News! EMA - 'California'/ 'Milkman' Portland based Erika M. Anderson aka EMA released her first solo album - since disbanding her noise-folk band Gowns - in May. The album is called 'Past Life Martyred Saints' and is released on Berlin's Souterrain Transmissions label.
EMA is currently touring in support of 'Past Life Martyred Saints' - playing shows throughout Europe this month - and returning to North America in October. She'll be performing in Vancouver at the Biltmore Cabaret on October 8th (with Wild Beasts) - you can check out her full tour itinerary here:
http://www.souterraintransmissions.com/souterrain/artist_shows.jsp?artist=22740
EMA has cited Lou Reed as a major influence in her songwriting for 'Past Life Martyred Saints' - and you can hear elements of his signature spoken word delivery in her second single (and first video) 'California'. Musically speaking her sound is often both dark and alluring... Enjoy!
This is her second video - for the third single released from 'Past Life Martyred Saints' - 'Milkman'... Enjoy!

SummersRadio™ New Music! Justice! + Bonus Track!
SummersRadio™ New Music! Justice - 'Audio Video Disco' The new single from the French duo Justice has just been leaked online this weekend! 'Audio Video Disco' is the title track from their forthcoming second album which is due for release on October 25th on Ed Banger Records - and it will be released as the second official single on September 19th.
I do like Justice but at the same time I've always found them to be greatly overrated - and this new song does nothing to change that. It sounds a bit like a previously unreleased Buggles b-side track from 1979! But then, perhaps that was the sound they were going for - this is 'Audio Video Disco'... Enjoy!
Bonus Track! Just for kicks here's the b-side to The Buggles massive 1979 hit 'Video Killed The Radio Star' - called 'Kid Dynamo' - which I think I may just like a titch more than 'Audio Video Disco' :) Enjoy!

SummersRadio™ Classic! The Style Council!
SummersRadio™ Classic! The Style Council - 'Long Hot Summer' (Extended Version) So this is the last long weekend of summer - although it seems a bit soon since the summer sun didn't arrive until the start of August in Vancouver this year! Technically we still have a few more weeks to enjoy, but it seems like a good time to reflect back on how it's been. There are certain songs that are synonymous with the season - including The Style Council's 'Long Hot Summer'.
After disbanding The Jam in 1982 Paul Weller went on to form The Style Council in 1983 with keyboardist Mick Talbot - formerly of Dexy's Midnight Runners. 'Long Hot Summer' was their third (and most successful) single - which was later included on their debut mini album called 'Introducing The Style Council'. I love the bass sound - and how the keyboard bits sort of hover over the song - this the somewhat rare 'Extended Version' (clocking in at nearly seven minutes of chilled bliss!) of 'Long Hot Summer'... Enjoy!

It's out on Barcelona's Hideout label and features the title track, as well as 'Lockruf', 'Schleikraft' and this song called 'What I Remember'.
'What I Remember' features the vocals of K Mason and reminds me of a number of stoner house™ classics including 'I'm Drunk And I'm High' and Fantastic Plastic Machine's 'Love Is Psychedelic' remix which you can revisit here:

SummersRadio™ New Music! Makkametrik! Flavio Acaron!
SummersRadio™ New Music! Makkametrik - 'First On The Scene'/ Flavio Acaron - 'Addictive' These two new songs are featured on the latest EP released on the Platform B label which was started by Munich's Lutzenkirchen in 2007. The idea behind the label is to (thus far) release only EP's that feature a new track from Lutzenkirchen - along with new tracks from friends to help give them exposure as well. Each EP usually features three tracks (but sometimes four) - one from Lutzenkirchen (although sometimes two) and the others from... well, others! :)
Their latest EP is appropriately titled '# 14' and I'm liking all four tracks on it - but my favorite thus far by far is Makkametrik's song 'First On The Scene'. It starts off with this nice loose swagger that builds gradually until before you know it, you're lost in an amazing world full of spacey keyboard awesomeness... Enjoy!
This is the opening track on Platform B's latest Lutzenkirchen and friends EP - Flavio Acaron's 'Addicted' - a nice techno/ disco/ house hybrid that features vocal samples speaking about... illegal drugs! (gasp) Enjoy!

SummersRadio™ New Music + Free Downloads! Royksopp!
SummersRadio™ New Music + Free Downloads! Royksopp - 'Shores Of Easy'/ The Irrepressibles - 'In This Shirt' (RYXP Edit) Norway's Royksopp are giving away free presents! These presents come in the form of two free downloads from their official website - and they're not being stingy - the two songs combined (one original tune and one remix) clock in at nearly 25 minutes of quality music!
First up is a brand new ambient/ techno Royksopp track called 'Shores Of Easy' which the band says is 'best served when calm' - although even if you didn't feel that way initially the song will certainly soothe you into such a state. They describe it as 'a perfect soundtrack to that borderline state between being awake and being asleep – the state where everything seems possible.' They also mention that this song is not indicitive of what their fifth album will sound like - although I wouldn't mind at all if it was!
Both this song and the remix posted further below are available as a free download from Royksopp's official website here: http://royksopp.com/track-of-the-moment
This is 'Shores Of Easy'... Enjoy!
And here's your other present - Royksopp's remix of The Irrepressibles 'In This Shirt'. The Irrepressibles are a ten member 'orchestral ensemble' from London that released their debut album called 'Mirror Mirror' last year. They just officially released an EP for 'In This Shirt' earlier this month - which features this remix from Royksopp - as well as remixes from Hercules & Love Affair and Zero 7.
Royksopp are giving away their remix of 'In This Shirt' as a free download on their website as well! http://royksopp.com/track-of-the-moment
This is the 'RYXP Edit' aka the 'Royksopp Remix' of The Irrepressibles song 'In This Shirt'... Enjoy!
