Video: Duran Duran dig into their dance roots
14 May, 2008 | 8.46PMDuring their recent US touring stint for their latest album ‘Red Carpet Massacre’, synth pop (and of course pop) stadium legends Duran Duran pulled out this cut from their vast catalog of music.
The combination ‘All She Wants Is’ — taken from their 1988 album ‘Big Thing’ — combined with a cover of 1978’s ‘Warm Leatherette’ by The Normal (Mute record label founder Daniel Miller’s early act) was a stunning departure from their normally animated selves as performers on stage while at the Wells Fargo Theatre in Denver, Colorado this week.

Minus unveils The Cube at 10-year anniversary Contakt events
6 May, 2008 | 7.52PM
After a 10-week hiatus celebrating 10 years of Minus, the collective has unveiled a new concept in community.
Beginning with a date in Detroit during Movement 08, fans of Minus will have the chance to interact with the The Cube — a method of registering their live presence within the Minus environment — and will then have access to exclusive tracks, will be able to upload demos and will have the chance to win some quality gear, including Native Instruments’ Traktor Scratch System.
According to a conversation with Richie Hawtin, founder of the label, The Cube explores “how technology allows us as artists — and the audience — to make further human contact than would have been possible in the past.”
So what exactly is The Cube?

Beatportal interviews Trentemoller
12 February, 2008 | 2.37PMAs Danish musician Trentemoller recently trekked North America as part of a tour with his band, Beatportal’s Liz Warner caught up with him to chat about various goings on with his music production.
We chatted about playing with a live band as an electronic musician, ‘The Trentemoller Chronicles’ collection of remixes and unreleased tracks and the making of his ‘Moan’ video.
It was when we turned off the camera that we talked further to learn of Trentemoller’s plans to work with fellow Dane and filmmaker Lars von Trier on soundtrack production for von Trier’s upcoming film.
Look out for a new Trentemoller release ‘Miss You’ on Beatport in March 2008.

30 November, 2007 | 4.01PM
In today’s Herald Sun, Denmark’s Trentemøller is interviewed about an appearance he’s making in Australia as part of his band’s ongoing world tour.
In the article, he talks about the album, ‘The Last Resort’, as well as where he’d like to take his next album — with hopes of having Hope Sandoval of Mazzy Star involved.
Trentemoller (full name Anders Trentemøller) also talks of his current live band set-up and finally settling on a remix for Moby.

In other Trentemøller news, the artist revealed in an interview with Beatportal that he has recently worked with fellow Dane and filmmaker Lars von Trier for soundtrack production.
Von Trier is known for several films, including ‘Dancer in the Dark’ starring Björk.
Given Trentemøller’s dramatic audio flair, the duo should create a stunning work.
More details on that development will be shared on Beatportal.
