Up and coming!
Okay, my last post for the day focusses on some younger and new talent trying to get there stuff out there.
First up are two youngsters who go by the name “Tex Taiwan” they started somewhere 2008 and are finally coming with their very first album. Their music style falls in line with bands as Crystal Castles and Kap Bambino. Damaged Hearts is the name of this album that will be released digitaly the 21st June, but first there will be two single releases: ‘Labyrinth’ plus YLHCSD remix released on the 10th May & ‘Haphazard’ plus Aerotronic remix out on the 31st May.

Faisal sent me a remix for “Soulwax – E Talking”. As a big, big (seriously big) fan of Soulwax I was very curious and I must say, for an unknown Belgian guy, he did a rather good job on this one. The whole remix just feels right, great build ups, good sampling (I hear a sample coming from Justice, correct me if I’m wrong), I like!

Soulwax – E-talking (Faisal remix)
Last but not least, a band that has been featured on many blogs the last few weeks. Jamaica (that’s how they are called) almost literaly came out of nowhere. Their Debut album is coming soon and is produced by Xavier de Rosnay and Daft Punk sound Engineer Peter Franco! Check out these two awesome remixes and if you haven’t already, watch this official videoclip.

the E talking remix is great , awsome post and thank you!
Faisal is not so “unknown”, he’s one half of elektrobrothers who made the best remix of Dance Area’s AA 24/7 last year. Being played out by Mr Oizo and Boys Noize is not something many ‘unknown Belgians’ can be proud of..
And /me likes this one too. Go Faisal.

Jamaica was formerly known as Poney Poney
faisal (& elektrobrothers) have the skills
but not the promo / hype / …
it’s a shame
It’s THE biggest shame, they really killed it with their 24/7 remix and XT-CCC track!!
Be prepared for Faisal & Hakim Chatar!
