Gods of Blitz - Greetings from Flashbackville [mp3]
[audio:http://www.filelodge.com/files/room41/1178371/godsofblitz-greetingsfromflashbackville.mp3]

This is the track you wanna be on the speakers when you enter the club at 2AM, out of your mind and looking for trouble. I guess you can call it bad-ass electro-punk. Courtesy of the German Hives, Gods of Blitz. Where in Germany, I haven’t the slightest idea. I first heard this track on Ministry of Sound’s fifth compilation of new German electro, Neue Heimat (2006).

MIA rocks Berlin like it never left the eighties. And that’s how Berlin likes it.

Einstürzende Neubauten - Für den Untergang
[audio:http://blogfiles.wfmu.org/LG/Partisanen/07_-_Einstuerzende_Neubauten_-_Fuer_Den_Untergang.mp3]

added: 2006-08-10

The blog for WFMU, New York’s most beloved eclectic/independent radio station, recently uncovered an ultra-rare 19-song compilation of Berlin underground music from 1979-1983 called Als Die Partisanen Kamen (someone on ebay is asking €1,00 for their copy) and put the whole thing online. Nice one. Definitely check out this entry if you wanna know what all the fuss is/was about. Avant garde extreme.

Devastations - Sex and Mayhem [ mp3 ]

added: 2006-08-04

Night time is (still) the right time. These dusty Australians just moved to Berlin and, well, that seems appropriate. Madrugada from Norway did the same a few years ago and cranked out a smoky, rain-drenched street dream masterpiece. I can understand why the critics can reach for easy comparisons (Leonard Cohen, Nick Cave, Dirty Three, Cat Power…), but they do have a sound all to themselves. I thought Nick Cave’s Red Right Hand was the best of the class until I heard the langorous beat on this beast. Ahh, the perils of rock ‘n’ roll decadence (props: Axl Rose).

2/5 BZ - Okuz Istanbul (Peel Session II) [ mp3 ]

added: 2006-07-29

2/5 BZ (Serhat Koksal) is a DJ from Turkey. This cat operates on another astral plane, so conventional music listeners beware. Adventurous listeners, come on in. His music jives well with his techni-color website and, presumably, his mind. His myspace site registers him (impishly) in the ‘Regional Mexican, Western Swing and Grime’ genres. A restless world-traveller, Koksal will be an artist-in-residency in Berlin for August-September @ PODEWIL for the Tesla Sound & Video Art Project.

Tiefschwarz - Damage (M.A.N.D.Y. Remix) [ mp3 ]
