REVIEW: Submotion Orchestra Live at Jazz Cafe, London
This past Saturday night, 19th March, I was in attendance for the London leg of Submotion Orchestra‘s UK tour at the Jazz Cafe in London. The venue was absolutely rammed full of people – the signs outside said “SOLD OUT” and they weren’t lying either!

FREE: Aaliyah – One In A Million (Klaar remix)
The mysterious Berlin-based electronic producer Klaar currently has his fantastic remix of One In A Million by the late Aaliyah available for FREE download via Bandcamp. On a drag/witch house/haunted house (whatever you want to call the sub-genre) tip, it takes the original and adds a hard hitting, yet moody as hell, angle. Originally only available via YouTube at the end of last year, Klaar has decided now to show some new year generousity and give it away – likely to be limited to … [read more]
