Wow, Little Boots just dropped the first Nocturnes single - Broken Record and it's a banger! Less commercial than her debut single New In Town but a tasty morsel from what we think will be a big club record! The groove is pulsating and strobing and leaves us craving more. DFA's owner and producer Tim Goldsworthy and 'Boots is clearly a winning combo!
House of Wallenberg continues their hit streak with the Octavia St. Laurent collaboration Be Somebody - an odyssey further into the realm of shimmering lights and moving bodies. Sadly Octavia passed away in 2009, years before this project was to be released. Hearing her vocals and the iconic sample from her Paris Is Burninginterview is amazing and mind blowing. Why she wasn't a massive house diva in the early 90's we'll never know. The music production is awesome and the hard dance beat paired with the lone violin creates a truly wonderful atmosphere tinged with sadness. To honor the memory of Octavia the famous Vogue houses of New York came together to create the video. Shot in a deep black & white we get striking images - both looking to the future and acknowledging what once was in one go. The single is out now, and the Part ll mix features legendary Neneh Cherry! Enjoy!
