Photo by Liam Lynch A week has passed and the cold that I picked up the day after Rocking the Daisies is finally getting better. Maybe it was the intense heat or the lack of sleep, but something got to my immune system. Was it worth it? Well yes and no. Let me put it [...]

Round two of  the Vampire Radio Remixes features Das Kapital and Battle Beyond The Stars. Das Kapital drops some radical rhythms, with an equally bouncy bassline to keep that groove going.

From his trademark slap-bass, to the stabby power-chord synths, this remix features all the elements which have been missing from the recent onslaught of chainsaw electro. Not to worry though, because although distortion is kept at subtle levels, this track packs quite a punch. Give this track some love [...]
