Hejven.se

The blog has been kinda quiet the past week or so and I apologize for that. It’s been a busy start of the summer!

Roskilde is closing in and this post is dedicated to introduce a few of the bands playing this year.

Danish Oh Land aka Nanna Øland is a bright star on the danish pop scene. With her fantastic voice and smooth electro beats she went straight to the hearts of thousands of people. This is a Max Tundra remix of her hit White Nights.

French Yelle is another female artist I’m looking forward to experience at Roskilde this year. This is her 2008 hit “Ce Jeu” remixed by The Twelves.

UK Gold Panda released his “Marriage” EP this year and this is the title track. I’m looking forward to see what he can pull at Roskilde.

VETO is the opening act at the Orange stage. They’ve played at Roskilde before but it’s a great honor to be the opening act. This is a Kenton Slash Demon remix of “Blackout”.

English indie rockers Foals is another band I’m looking forward to see at Roskilde. This is “Spanish Sahara” in a Mount Kimbie remix from the 7″ release.

For noget tid siden lovede vi lidt flere tracks fra The Twelves her på bloggen. Det løfte vil nu blive indfriet.

De to brasilianere fra Rio de Janeiro, Joao Miguel og Luciano Oliviera, danner tilsammen The Twelves. Navnet fik de fra den dato de tilfældigvis begge har fødselsdag: 12. juli 1980.
De befinder sig i en lille boble af elektronisk musik, hvor genrer som disco og 80′ernes synth-pop må siges at have sat sit præg. Vi snakker for det meste lette hurtige rytmer der er særdeles venlige på dansegulvet.

Vi starter med et remix af La Roux‘s hitnummer “In For The Kill”.
Dernæst kommer et par remix af Radiohead sangene “Recokner” og “There There”.
Så blænder vi op for endnu et hit, nemlig Black Kids tracket “I’m Not Nonna Teach Your BF How To Dance”.
Sidst men ikke mindst har vi et originaltrack fra The Twelves der hedder “Works For Me”.

Glæd jer forresten til i morgen hvor der endnu engang vil være Friday Bangers og denne gang med et track fra Tits & Clits!

Soulwax har haft fat i en gammel Bowie-klassiker fra 1974 og peppet den en del op, loopet et fedt guitarrif og smidt lidt mere bas på.

The Twelves ( <3 !!!) har leget med A-Ha's udødelige "Take On Me" og gjort den bare en anelse mindre 80'er-agtig but yet funky. Den har i hvert fald figureret på min playliste i et par dage i træk. Hvad synes i? Der vil i fremtiden forhåbentligvis komme både flere remix og tracks af The Twelves. Så glæd jer!

Deadmau5 er et navn man næppe kan komme udenom hvis man planlægger at smutte forbi Roskilde Festivalen i år. Canadieren med det jødiskklingende navn, Joel Zimmerman, har kørt Calvin Harris’ “I’m Not Alone” gennem house-maskinen og det er særdeles vellydende!
