Digitalism are MySpace featured artists + micromix of new Kitsune mixtape
Jul 09, 08
Ah, the Germans in Digitalism. We first heard their name in reference to a remix of Tom Vek's wonderful "Nothing But Green Lights", but seriously forgot about them (aside from DJ sets here and there of course) until they released their debut recording in the 07. The Kitsune act, now more than a year after releasing Idealism, have been tapped by MySpace for a featured artist spot. Hooray for recognition.
Anyways, this is all just peanut butter with no jelly unless we talk about the new Tabloid mixtape the boys have put together. The mixtape is the first in a new series that Kitsune is pushing, describing it as "...where Kitsune will be inviting their favorite DJs to tell a story through a personal mix, the mix being seen as the newspaper and the DJs as editor in chief".

This totally reads like a banging DJ set and we totally foresee many an Ableton DJ just putting this on in their set and warping in and out for transitions. And the kids won't know the difference. Here's a micromix the band put together, mashing most of the samples of the tracks together into a 5-minute-and-change behemoth of cuts and clips.
