Adam Sky is the latest alias of Adamski, one of the unmistakable faces of the original London warehouse rave scene who scored some acid house hits such as the mega "Killer." With an album slated for release on Kitsune, they've put out...

The first Kitsune release for Alex Gopher. Tracks on Kitsune and Ed Banger seem to be always defined by a single synth line that gets pounded, then breaks down, and then comes in even stronger. This is exactly the formula here, as...

Kitsune's baaaack. It hasn't been long has it? They seem to consistently be pumping out releases. This here is the second one from London's indie electro outfit, Autokratz. "1000 Things" is the harder of the two tracks - more of
the fist...

Two new electro/techno jams from the Londoners in AutoKratz. "Pardon Garcon" first appeared on Kitsune's Maison #5 comp, but this is the more banging "rewerk." Meanwhile, "French Girls Play Guitar" is a bumping little dirty techno-spiked number which confoundingly contains very little...

It's Kitsune, but hey! Where are all the heads? I guess they made it special for this Autokratz 12" and judging by the sound, it's fitting. The main track "Reaktor" reminds me of a electrorock carpet ride, laced with italo...

A couple new fist-pumpers from the Autokratz boys on Kitsune. You know the sound by now - hard, distorted electro rock noise paired with shoulder shakin' house beats that'll go well at any hip party. Just Keep Walkin' is the typical Kitsune...

Big, cavernous electro-dance sounds here. You can picture this killing some euro-club, imagine what it would do to your Corpus Christi local bar? Man of the moment Sebastian comes in with patented electro-roughneck remix, rubbing the original with heated sandpaper. Stunt Systems...

By now everyone knows that Kitsune has a trendsetting track record, releasing the first singles from big names like Simian Mobile Disco, Digitalism and Klaxons among others. Big Face, hailing from Glasgow, bring a straight ahead electro-pop tune with, "I...

Miss Ya Ya Ya's Myspace says she's from London AND Paris. Sounds rough! Who knows where she hails from originally, but this is some sexy ESL shit right here. Suuuper Lo-fi production, but that's not an insult; that's where the charm lies!...

Boyz Noize's "Feel Good" starts off like some weird performance art thing (leaning toward "annoying"), but if you can get your crowd into it, there's an electro payoff about a minute in. Think of it as a DJ challenge. Edit with...

The first thing you'll notice about "Popper" is that it samples the same part from "Funkytown" as Soulwax's "NY Excuse." Do you really care though? "Funkytown" is one of the most incredible pieces of synth-pop, so think of this an edit-makeover-homage. They...

Feelin' this Kitsune joint. A lot of their recent stuff has had more of a new rock flavor, but this release from David E. Sugar is kind of a return to form. Thick, slimy bass and squirrely synths crawling around under fat...

Another early Kitsune release from 2005, this originally appeared as the b-side to SMD's Count single. Judging by his discography, Dieter seems to have stopped producing, but this gorgeous piece of lo-fi techno lives on. -mgmnt
Digital-only single that originally appeared on the Kitsune X compilation in 2005. Authentic Ghettotech meets the chic streets of Paris. Interesting storytelling by Assault about a girl on the dark side of life (ironically over feelgood sounds). -mgmnt
It's a step late, but the uber cool entity Fischerspooner has jumped on the French bandwagon. However, they've taken a less traveled approach. Rather than go the electro-dance route that we know they can do, they head down the underground roads of...
