FUCK SAD SONGS AND SLOW JAMS, THIS IS GO CHIC

Go Chic is an dance/pop/punk/electro group which started in Taipei around 2007, current members are Sonia Lai (賴思勻), Ariel Zheng (鄭思齊), Sarah Wen (溫一珊). This new band hit the scene with brightly colored tights and short shorts, laughing and joking with the crowd as they pumped out raw, catchy, dance-electro. Since then, Go Chic has lost a couple of members, gained a male drummer-Winston Li (李昀璁), and graduated to silver tutus and a coveted place as one of Nike’s 10 top Taiwanese bands for the company’s NIKE SPORTSWEAR NIGHT PARTY. They've played with such notable acts as Vicarious Bliss (Ed Banger FR), Dandi Wind (CA), Shitdisco (Dim Mak UK), Death Is Not My Aim (JP), etc. And are currently active in Taiwan playing various festivals and venues.

搖滾可以帶電。剛開始是4名女子玩的「Go chic」，今年改換以3女1男組合現身，仍擺著一副煙視媚行，跩氣橫秋的婊態，強勢殺進樂團圈。 約2年前成軍，Go chic打著「女子搖滾」快速度在獨立音樂圈走紅，拿著大聲公的主唱衝撞人群，合成器女子拿著手中的空酒瓶，在台上公然茫掉或大飆髒話；20多歲的派對女孩們很兇悍熱血，還被國外知名樂團大力推薦，看來她們似乎並不膚淺，新輯「I’m confused!!」也將自製推出，放話要帶來新的搖滾舞池體驗。 在舞臺上，Go chic的3名女子不避嫌裸露自己傲人的青春肉體，大方用洋派的歌詞，以大能量的搖滾混合激烈或妖嬈的電子節奏唱出女孩兒們的愛情、性以及挫折跟歡愉。 [via go chic]

Starkey occupies an intriguing middle ground. Having once plied his wears in notably bouncier territories he's discovered a distinctly svelter approach for his second album on Planet Mu and in doing so he's quickly garnering props as the most plausible mediating force between the scene's opposing armies.

Nice chap that he is, Starkey not only put us together a very special one-off mix for all your listening pleasure, he also gave us an exclusive download of the Slugabed remix of his new choon 'Stars'. [via NME]

Ben Thompson aka Ben UFO is one of the chiefs of the excellent Hessle Audio. But you know that. And you know what to expect on this tape - seamless mixing from one the best out. The scene is so vibrant right now. WIth a new-found freedom to draw from anywhere in the last twenty years of dance and urban music, its made for a culture of producers and djs who don't hold back on any fusion. Nothing is corny. Nothing is disregarded. You just make it, and add it onto the long chain of thousands of banging, fleeting ideas locked within the mixes that are quickly filling the internet and pirates. But don't see this as saturation, cause the more we make the more there is. Let Ben UFO be your guide this month with 28 tracks in 61 minutes - each with the prospect of making another 28 tracks. That's how it works. Hessle Audio X LuckyMe forever and ever and ever and ever and ever and ever and ever and ever and ever and ever and ever and ever and ever and ever. [via LuckyMe]
