bot ox is one of many side projects for french label owner and music tastemaker cosmo vitelli, in partnership with julien briffaz (better known as one half of tekel). their last single >crashed cadillac< was one of the highlights from i m a cliches moments of a crisis compilation from earlier this year. this latest effort is a real slow burner, with the misty voice of anna jean flowing over top of lo-fi melodies and blistering rhythms. weve also heard the flip side for the release – >bearded lady motorcycle show< – which is a more aggressive electro growler.

botox last november single on im a cliche, >babylon by car<, later licensed by dfa in january, gets a new life with unreleased remixes by padded cells richard sen, discodeine (alias pilooski & pentile), and dissident records invincible scum. supported by ivan smagghe, toby tobias, photonz, crowdpleaser, mylo, dj morpheus, matt walsh (turbo), riotous rockers ..

christian b & lavvy levan return with the second instalment of their sounds from the den series on friday fox recordings. this latest vinyl 4-tracker picks up where vol.1 left off and continues to explore the outer reaches of the house genre, kicking off with the massive weak from fatty mombassa which combines fatty s now trademark spoken word against a ferociously infectious disco influenced groove. south africa s rudi botha & miggza return with a looped-funk affair in the form of people come together . rob slac delves deep into the dark recesses of a tech-style groove with the deliciously sultry lonesome butterfly . the package is completed by the upfront sound of kieron ayres what must i do .

sadly betty botox is no longer with us. she departed planet earth in 2010 and leaves a gaping hole amongst all those who knew her. she left behind a dat tape in her studio with the final ep written on the cover in lipstick, which her closest confidants feel she wanted to be her last statement to the world. so, after a slight delay, two years later, 4 tracks that were regular features in her musically wayward dj sets are now available for her to fans to hear and play. combining her love for psyche funk, cosmic synth, space rock and late 70s stadium rock these reworkings, remixes, refixes and reproductions of known and unknown tracks are sure to be hits on non-conservative dance floors everywhere.

!!!mixmags tune of the month 5/5!!!
bot ox guys, cosmo vitelli and julien briffaz, perfect pair of its kind, return where they somehow belong: the dancefloor of a club. their remixes for other artists - logo, aladdin and even the unexpected toxic avenger - showed their soft spot for dancing, lately. this pair of tracks brings something special as they feature the foremost poets for the vocal part.. a figure of the underground dance music wall of fame, the foremost poets aka johnny dangerous is also a voice that techno and deep house lovers keep in a corner of their imagination: >i ll beat that bitch with a bat<, >reasons to be dismal<, >moonraker<, >pressin on<.... two versions of >perfect pair< are proposed along the most classical standards: an >original< one and a >dub< 13-minutes one. each of them have their own progressive, undated flavor

babylon by car is entirely in this ambiguity, between nostalgia and modernity, between pop and post-punk, electronic music and rock, past and future – its where kraftwerks >men-machines< celebrated an endless future with obedient machines. botox summons the ghosts of the century, from cybotron to wire, from fad gadget to john carpenter, to give birth to greatly personal music and, in all honesty, a rather unique sound in french electronic music. botox doesnt swagger to keep their motors running. both melodic and fierce, >babylon by car< comes as it is. and its probably the best way to take it in

due to popular demand and before the release of their first album >babylon by car<, bot ox asked to a bunch of talented producers to remix their pop single >blue steel<. para one and tacteel are celebrating their come back with a outstanding midtempo remix.

put your seatbelts on! after hitting toys in slow motion, bot.ox puts it into gear and takes to the autobahn, with uptempo drums, mad synth lines and freaky naive melody at the next left turn. >overdrive< could have been a perfect horror movie soundtrack, something like the pop corn theme covered by d.a.f.

the remix from azary & iii is finally here.....

whitebox stereo is the type of driving, subtly uplifting dancefloor dependable that border is loved for - the former output artist continues to cement his relationship with border, and is currently putting the finishing touches to his debut album.

alongside the release of his long awaited first album and his endless world tour, yuksek found the time to make a remix for his old pals of im a cliché. and the result is killer. he kept the melodic dimension of the original and used his skills to turn it into a huge floor filler.

after one year composing in isolation, bot ox is tackling 2009 at full throttle. following the 12 releases on dfa and dc recording last year, cosmo vitelli and julien briffaz are coming back on im a cliche to release three singles till 2009 put together like a trilogy. here is the first single including arab drift and rue de l arsenal.

electrohouse track based around a learning robot includes mixes by buck & limo and ricky montanari

while everyone else was enjoying the summer of the century ( and probably the world cup ) the botox boys hurled themselves in the studio and indulged into a cosmic electronic >kraut< session. on the hard stomping >lada rock< cosmo vitelli lays down a stoic one note bassline and grants tekels julien briffaz some time to get freaky with hard metallic, stumbling beats behind his drumkit before skanking guitar chords preludes several minutes of countless dramatic organ and synth erruptions. after this wild freak-out your body gets a rest, its now the mind that gets messed with, the slow moving >drive by shooting< with its neverending, grinding, menacing cascades of hot-lava like synth tides sounds like a dark balearic tune on bad acid
