Woke up this morning..

By Afflicted Wolf on November 14, 2010


Woke up this morning and took a 7 hour train ride, through the interwebs. Found this online, credit goes to Reddit.com and i09.com. 7 hour train ride through Norway set to Electronic music, 13 parts on youtube, it all starts here.

I love the concept, but I would love it if someone like Erol Alkan were behind the mix. Would guarantee the 7 hours was filled with an educational ride of all music I enjoy.

Now Enjoy some tunes from some of my favorite artist:

Rihanna – Only Girl In The World (Mr. Vega & Nicolas Strands Bootleg) by Mr_Vega_Music

-

and… for those who don’t know Dim Mak just recently released a huge GTRONIC Sucker Punch package:

Erol Alkan, Hot Chip, Track of the Month

By Afflicted Wolf on December 18, 2009

december 2009 erol artist Erol Alkan, Hot Chip, Track of the Month

Happy Holidays, Prepare for the New Year with one of the most RESPECTED and UNDER RATED LEGENDS..ERRRrrOoool Alkan and his remix of Hot Chip’s tune ‘Boy From School.’

Only the extended version for the Bopper Nation because we NEVER ever EVER stop!

Erol Alkan has a resume that would fill up the whole page of Bopper Nation. From his rowdy club shows to his wicked collaborations to his ingenious remixes Erol has always been the one to KEEP the FUNK alive. But above all else he is humble and would never dream of talking so positively about himself.

But, ‘Don’t Believe the Hype’ listen to the music yourself.

Hot Chip - Boy From School (Erol Alkan's Extended Re-rework)

This remix and song strangely reminds me of Radiohead, which makes me even more happy. Without a doubt this tune is a track of the week/month. From the first time I heard it to each time that I put it on and feel the rhythm lay out it’s eerie vocals and the cold dark deep tone reminds me what it’s like to be a ‘boy from school.’

Loud & Quiet’s interview of Erol Alkan

loud quiets interview w erol alkan erolalkan6 Loud & Quiets interview of Erol Alkan

A message to the Producers of today from Erol Alkan:

“The reason Chemical Brothers (and Daft Punk) have had the success they’ve had is through their subtlety, their detail – it’s not mindless. Not to dismiss the current scene, but there is stuff that has got a bit too hard and a bit too mindless – if we’re not careful we’re only a few steps from Hard House or stuff like that. Let’s bring some funk back, let’s not just bang our heads on walls!”- Erol Alkan (An excerpt from an amazing interview found on Loud & Quiet dot com (Loudandquiet.com). [read full interview here].

This interview was full of many great quotes and to say the very least it was informative. Included in the interview is a recap on Erol’s achievements, as well as the moments leading up to and his latest collaboration project with Boys Noize. Which in September we’ve all heard the recent encounter Death Suite/Waves, but in the interview Erol Alkan prepares us for more! ““We’ve [Boys Noize & Erol] got about 10 unfinished tracks that we’re working on together,” confirms Erol.”-Loud & Quiet. The interview also talks about Erol’s first booking of Alex Ridha (Boys Noize) The interview also gives the curious readers an insight of the process that takes place when two great solo artist get in the laboratory together and make music! I definitely give this interview a 5/5 and recommend all Bopper check it out and leave comments on their page!
