Metal Dance

Last February, Trevor Jackson - graphic designer, musician and head-honcho of Output recordings - released a compilation of industrial, E.B.M. and post punk tracks called 'Metal Dance'. Some great tunes on there, including this (kind of sounds like evil Michael Jackson):



You can listen to a promo minimix here.

Freestyle

DJed at Freestyle last night. Saw some great bands and though they weren't to my usual tastes (its not the same gay hi-nrg disco I usually peddle) I particularly enjoyed Dubcherry. I urge you to listen to it with proper speakers though to get the full effect. Better still, catch them at a gig.

Wrong Side Of The Art

Cool website with a ridiculous amount of posters from Horror, sci-Fi, exploitation and trash movies. Including this bizarre little nugget, from the film 'I Like Bats' (?!).

Paul Roberts

Stumbled across this artist whilst looking for images for posters. Nice work!

Belgian New Beat

'New beat' is quite an ambiguous term but it was mainly used in the late 80s - particularly by Americans - to describe all the new electronic sounds coming from Europe. Its a cross between EBM, acid and mid-80s house. I found this compilation on another blog and it contains some real gems, including a strange version of French Kiss, not credited to Lil Louis but DNM (whoever they are!).
