Snarky Puppy (featuring Magda Giannikou) - Amour T'es La

Brooklyn based band Snarky Puppy featuring Magda Giannikou of Banda Magda
from their live DVD/CD - "Family Dinner - Volume One". The track has a Brazilian feel with French vocals sung by a Greek. I hate to use the term but surely this fusion at it’s really great!

Todd Terje - Strandbar (Disko Version)

This is the unofficial video by Thriftshop XL. Based around a classic piano house riff, it's the sound of pure summery hands in the air fun. There's three versions here: a self explanatory samba version (percussion heavy), a very electro-house 'disko' version and a bonus DJ tool version (which oddly omits the piano riff). It may be a little too jolly for some, but who wants them at the party anyway?

Free the Robots - Innervision (Film Edit)

Little bit experimental but really inetersting music. Taken from album The Balance issued on Elsewhere Studios this year.

"Listening to Free the robots is like walking through the city with blindfolded eyes. A sound so powerful it bangs against my mental images.. echoes graciously booming through the darkness. I let go of space and time until the next track kicks in. Free the Robots is more than a musical one-night-stand. It's constructed like a journey through time..."
