M83 - Wait (Video by Frank Deron)

M83 never disappoint in my books. This video is a rough timeline of chimps being sent to space using actual clips from the USA space missions. It starts though with baby chimps playing around as chimps do, then as they grow up they get taught by humans to do various different tasks and eventually being shot into space - that's a really shitty breakdown because this promo is engaging, emotional and beautiful. Please watch and try not to cry. 



M83 - Wait from Franck Deron on Vimeo.

Check out the other clips on Franck Deron's page because this guy has a real talent.

If you feel you need a house kick after watching that listen to this quality Luciano remix of M83 'In Church'


While your there also check out The Japanese Popstars featuring Morgan Kibby who has sung on many M83 tracks and has one of the most beautiful voices in the world and this tune takes full advantage of that. It also shows of The Japanese Popstars as really dynamic producers.

Never Never New Hot Young Talent!!! - Daniel Bortz

"Never Never New Hot Young Talent" is a feature i will pull out on the occasion where I get excited about a DJ / Producer / Live Act / Band and want to shout about how turned on i am from their work. So expect freeeesh sexy stuff from this segment of the blog.

Its always annoying when you think you've made a discovery and then you get massively embarrassed when you find out your the last one to be in the know. Daniel Bortz is one of these for me. I first came across Bortz productions i April this year when scouring beatport looking for something on the deep side for what would be a warm up set - if i ever get to play out!! I went to Suol Records for inspiration and came across Daniel Bortz EP The One. I only picked up the track 'Other Guys'. It has a darkness to it that get a flash of brightness pop up with every synth bounce. It features a vocal sample of a R&B tune from 2006 by Cassie who is just a sexy as she sounds in this tune. I've played it a thousand times and yet to get bored of it. Its smooth, its clean, its got a groove that is so slick it makes me almost slide of my chair thinking about it. Check it hear.



So after this tune i delved deeper to get more of a flavor on Daniel Bortz and seen that he's released on a load of labels including Souvenir Music which is spearheaded by tech house gods Tiefschwarz and most recently Circle Music. The new release on Circle music is a extremely solid EP. 'I'm talking' is the pick of the bunch. Here there is a sweet groove again with lots of wicked stabs of some 70's backroom disco flavas - piano's/organs and again a vocal sample.

Bortz love of vocals come across in his mix's too. From what i've heard on mainly podcasts most the tunes he plays are vocal led. You can check out his latest mix posted a week ago for Noir here -

DANIEL BORTZ - PODCAST FOR NOIR MUSIC by Daniel Bortz

Going back to being a tad bit behind other folks on discovering up and comers - as i was just sitting down to write this piece i got a invite on facebook from my mate Tom 'Balls Deep' Bulwer who has just booked Daniel Bortz for his party imprint Get Down Good at Baising House on the 2nd December, this will be a London Debut. Never Never will of course be in attendance!

Get onto Get Down Good here!!!

and RSVP to the event by clicking here!

More info and gigs from Daniel Bortz can be found all over the net but here are his RA, Myspace and most importantly Soundcloud.

May 2011 carry on with relentless releases from this talent and i'll try to keep track and post any specifically sweet riddems of his on Never Never facebook

Bestival 2011 Hoopla!!!



So Never Never was at Bestival 2011! My friends and i managed to see pretty much all the acts we wanted to that include Greg Wilson, DJ Slip Matt, DJ Shadow, James Blake, Fenech Soler, Maverick Saber, Kelis, Zola Jesus, Brian Wilson, Magnetic Man, Pendulum, Crystal Castles, The Japanese Popstars, Kevin Saunderson & Derrik May, Claude VonStroke, Santigold, The Cure, Public Enemy

Hightlights where surprisingly the Village People who where the most fun i've had in ages. They performed on the Saturday which is fancy dress day so the vibe was already very flamboyant! Starting off with 'Macho Man' was genius and got us all going. There must have been 10 thousand people camping it up for the whole of the set finishing with YMCA. It was awesome!


Other stuff that was really good was Santigold on Thursday eve, having not been that mad into her stuff before i am now officially a fan, the live set was wicked! She had everyone jumping from the first to the last beat! Zola Jesus was good on the sunday, she has a wicked stage presence that i think she's built a career on because some of her tunes are not that good. Obviously The Cure was breathtaking! the started off with my two favorite Cure songs as well, 'Disintegration' followed by 'Fascination Street' so i was completely locked in for the rest of the 2 hour show. Public Enemy was a lot of fun, Flava Flave talked a lot about his new book which was a truely amarican way to put a show on but Chuck D was spectacular with his rhymes not skipping a beat. i was a bit dissapointed they didn't play a couple of my all time favorite tunes, 'Public Enemy No1' or 'Sex, Drugs and Violence' But they did play 'Harder than you think' which i managed to get a small clip of!



The rest of the festival was spent at the bar or lying on the grass laughing.

Things that where shit where Grand Master Flash who played a 'live' set on a laptop.... not what you expect from the man who supposedly invented turntable mixing and Midnight Beast! WTF! end of.

Can't wait for next year... i'm hopeing for The Beastie Boys as a headliner!

Paradise Garage Classics

For anyone unaware of what the Paradise Garage was I can only briefly sum up the impact it and its DJ resident (Larry Levan) had on the House music we listen to today. It was one of the few American clubs to invent house music and the tunes that inspired house. Disco and Pop was a big feature through the 70's and early 80's then with new technology and other things became more available for the musicians house music became more prominent. Paradise Garage was of course a gay club and the records listed below clearly reflect that to my ears! Big, Happy and wearing your heart on your sleeve was the name of the game! I've got to say that i absolutely love the way these tracks make me feel and i'm not scared to flaunt it!! Here is a list of 1000 Paradise Garage Classics (that i nabbed from another blog, shameful but true)! Most of them can be found on youtube but i've put a few clips of my fave's!

Matthew Dear - Slowdance (Video)

Matthew Dear has got to be up there in my top 10 fave artists ever. His techno sets are some of the best memories i have of clubbing- once he started his set to a packed room 2 in fabric and cleared it in about 3 mins with a injection of bass and bat noises which servilely freaked most of the room out only for the set after that point to be one of the best i've ever heard. His music moving away from the beats and beats to the more traditional song set up are also mind blowing. This track, from his album Black City that came out last year, is truly beautiful and the video, that has just been made, matches up to that! Continuing the lack of colour that the album theme has been pushing this video actually brings out qualities in the music i hadn't even noticed. I can't stop watching it and have gone back to the album and enjoyed it even more than before. Check the video out here -

Whats Never Never????!!!!?!

Never Never is a creation by Sean Robinson. Never Never is all about keeping the youthful attitude towards life, to continually be excited about new music and wanting to succeed in the pursuit of quality!



I've been working in music for 7 years this month, had a few different jobs and a lot of good times balance out with equally hard times - making sure to always be moaning through both. This blog is about getting back to what i'm good at - talking about music and passing judgement where my opinion means squat!
Apologies in advance for spelling and grammar, my dyslexic tendencies come out more when writing about things that are interesting!

Expect House, Techno, Hip Hop, Indie, Rock, Old & New as i will be writing about what i've recently discovered even tho it might be from the 70's. I also have a passion for visual art so i may drop in the occasional cool thing i've seen on Vimeo or something....

Never Never is also the name of my events where i'll be showcasing a few of the things i'm most passionate about.

Best wishes

LA Shades
