Our dear friend Grup Ses sent us the new series he’s started called Ses Partisi 01 which is a series dedicated to contemporary alternative music from Turkey. Includes songs from him, Klaustro, Grangulez, Replikas, Hazavuzu, Ekin Fil of Proudpilot and even an older track by yours truly!.

Mixtapes for Week 1 / 2010 : Portformat, Scanner, Asthmatic Kitty, DJ Slow, Pink Stallone, Best Coast..

Resting on our soundcloud favelist are three unrelated singles. Siriusmo’s remix to Bodi Bill, Polish electric indie band Thecarisonfire’s debut single and Leftside Wobble’s Curtis Mayfield re-edit. Enjoy.

Although it didn’t find a place in our top 30 list Friendly Fires‘ self titled debut still remains among the higher points of last year’s indie dance party hype. Paris, one of the highlights on the album recently got the remix treatment, and our friend the Afro-Frankfurter Arto Mwambé got his hand dirty with it.

It’s time to take the first short vacation/break of 2008 and disappear until Monday. Assorted songs that I’ve been listening to for the last months but can’t find the context to post are up to keep you busy in the meantime. Enjoy.
