Voltage - 'All Night'

A sucker for a great vocal, I cant get enough of this record at the moment. Voltage is the new side project between Joel Dickson , aka Nile Delta, formerly one half of Riot in Belgium and Cut Copy front man Dan Whitford. Get on the Ilija Rudman remix for some downtempo bliss. DS

BIG IN JA'PON DE ROOF - LONDON PARTY

BIJ London is thowing a summer rooftop party on the 14th August with some very special guests. Psychemagik are on their way to releasing their debut Album following their killer Edit of Fleetwood Mac's - Everywhere which im sure will get a play at this summers afternoon party. Click on the poster for more details.

LOGO

Here is a little treat for you all. We are really loving Kitsune signed Logo this week. They are an allusive bunch (or man) we couldn't find anything about them anywhere. What we have heard is pretty damn awesome... so what's wrong with a little mystery.

Check out these little gems:

La Vie Moderne - Logo Overdrive- Bot'Ox (Logo Remix)

Music for your ears...

If you have not had the pleasure of listening to Memory Tapes we highly advise it. Their album Seek Magic is a top tip for the summer. Lucky for us they will be heading over from their native New Jersey for a few UK show including London's Field Day. Their song Stop Talking is popping up on dance floors all over the country, and its not to hard to figure it out why. It is blooooody good.

Check out a few of their tracks:

Stop Talking - MEMORY TAPES

Bicycle - Memory Tapes (Tanlines Remix)

SUMMMMMMMER

So while Uni breaks up for summer, here at BIGINJAPAN we're working hard to keep the party going in Bournemouth. Time for some summer tracks - and this week we're definitely all over LE MATOS. Hailing from Quebec, Canada and absolutely huge in their home country, we're sure over the coming months they'll rightly take a place in the UK scene.

First up is a remix of BIJ favourites WE HAVE BAND. Check it out.

WE HAVE BAND - HONEYTRAP (LA MATOS REMIX) 

LE MATOS - LIKE PERFUME ON A PIG (ELEKTRO-BOY REMIX)

We have a good feeling about summer. BIGINJAPAN LDN is certainly gathering up momentum - more news to come!

From the country that gave us Serge Gainsbourg, Vincent Gallo and er, Vanessa Paradis, French Revolution now brings the best crop of new talent and established artists who will sail their way over the choppy waters of the murky channel to come and entertain you, the good folk of the UK. Along with Atom Live, the students music network has teamed up with Oui Love, French new scene promoter, offering two lucky UK students bands the chance to live the rock n roll dream, touring with France’s finest new bands this summer.

Oui Love will be hosting a two-legged tour during May across the North and South of the UK. The London leg is hosted by French Revolution, featuring the urban electro of The Shoes and the kaleidoscopic vibes of The Bewitched Hands On Top of Our Heads together with the talents of the frenetic Curry & Coco and the sophisticated chamber-pop of Revolver.
