[hot off the press] Gigamesh Remixes Theophilus London

Gigamesh has been making his mark for several years in dance clubs around the world with his own popular blend of remixes, as well as his work with remix group DiscoTech, and his role in Señor Stereo, a disco influenced live-electronic group. Theophilus London did a rare LIVE performance of Gigamesh’s contest winning (check it out below) at Noisey’s “Special Engagement” concert this summer.

Starting today, you can download the track where it premiered with Interview Magazine (or on this here blog below).

[on the road] Lana Del Rey

American singer/songwriter Lana Del Rey is heading out later this Fall for a quick tour, mostly in Europe, but there are two stops in the US (NY & LA).  She’ll be touring in support of her soon-to-be released EP Video Games/Blue Jeans.  If you plan on going to any of these shows, don’t delay, tickets are going super fast.  And if you haven’t listened to “Video Games” yet (you must be living under a rock, if that’s the case), do it.  Definitely one of the best tracks of 2011.

[hot off the press] David Lynch//Crazy Clown Time

Sunday Best and PIAS America are pleased to announce that the title track from Crazy Clown Time, David Lynch’s first-ever solo album will be free to download on Lynch’s official Facebook page for a limited time beginning Tuesday, October 4. Lynch cryptically describes the song as “a phenomenon of the age in which we live.”  The full album will be released internationally on November 7 and in the North America on November 8.

Marking a departure from his revered and influential musical collaborations in the past with Angelo Badalamenti (Twin Peaks), Polish pianist Marek Zebrowski (Inland Empire), and Sparklehorse and Danger Mouse (Dark Night of the Soul), “Crazy Clown Time” unveils a majestic, yet powerfully idiosyncratic vision of “modern blues” that could only be drawn from the mind of David Lynch. Filled with foreboding soundscapes, hypnotic rhythms and enigmatic lyrics, this is music that will resonate not only with fans of Lynch’s films, but also to listeners who appreciate daring, experimental music.

Head on over to David Lynch’s facebook page to stream/download the new track.  If you’re at all familiar with Mr. Lynch, “Crazy Clown Time” is pretty much exactly what you would expect.  On the other hand though, if you’re not familiar with Mr. Lynch, you’re in for something quite peculiar…to say the least.
