SOLID GOLD cd - - - OUT NOW

OUT NOW:
Solid Gold is a collection of some early IDIB 12"s,
most of which are out of print. Tracks were carefully
selected and programmed by our own Johnny Jewel.
This is not a mix cd. It is full tracks as they appear
on the original 12"s. A compilation of sorts...
This entire compilation is the brainchild of Johnny,
and he put a lot of time into the tracklisting. We
hope you enjoy it. Its perfect driving music. This
is a cd only release, and is for sale in our store (link
is over there on the right column). We lowered all
of our prices as well on everything. We are trying
to accommodate the overseas people who get screwed
over with the high shipping rates, which seem to
keep going up and up and up...
This is a MAILORDER/GIG only release! enjoy!

Also, many of the older Italians singles are running
very low and will not be repressed, so if you need
to grab some do it soon!

SPRINGTIME NEWS - Mucho News! (and Swash!)

hello. our absence does not mean we were not busy! we have been
hard at work recording, designing, even doing an overhaul for the
store! keep your eyes peeled for a nice new store overhaul. so much
is happening i dont even know where to begin. we have tons of dates
scheduled for the spring and summer, as well as tons of records.
we are hard at work on art, photos, music, trips to Kinkos, trips
to sit with our webmaster, trips to Portland, trips to Montreal, trips
to mikes basement, trips to the post office, trips to the record
store. always working, never sleeping, sometimes eating. This
is the 'behind the scenes hibernation' before the unveiling and the
tours.

anyway, there is a new semi-official T&K video floating around for
a track off the IDIB 12", check it out below:

Tiago & Dj Kaos - "Yet To Come" from Rodrigo Vaz on Vimeo.

ALSO for those of you who enjoy the vinyl format, we acquired a
few copies of Professor Genius brand new self-released 7". By
far, its his best work yet. if you want one email Mike for the order
info at mike at troublemanunlimited dot com. it is $8 postage paid
USA / $10 worldwide and it is extremely limited. it is a must buy!
We also have a small amount of Pilooski edit 12"s left that was
released on RVNG. if you need order info on that email is above.
that record is long gone from pretty much everywhere so grab it
now before you are stuck paying discogs prices. speaking of discogs,
Mike recently put up a bunch more records from his collection. He is
selling all of his doubles. There some really good stuff up there
and its all priced the lowest on discogs.

GLASS CANDY "Feeling Without Touching" VIDEO PREMIERE

A few months ago the band got together with director
Travis Peterson for their first 'official' video. They've made
promo videos in the past, and there are a bunch of
fan videos out there as well (check them out) BUT this
is one we can all be happy and proud of. In this day and
age its pretty easy to make a video, but be rest assured
like all the IDIB stuff out there, this looks and sounds
amazing and we think its a cut above the rest! Check it out:

FEELING WITHOUT TOUCHING

we are excited to announce that glass candy just finished
the 12" version of "FEELING WITHOUT TOUCHING".
we are releasing it as a 12" maxi single.
our first record of 2010.
it's being mastered right now! we should have the vinyl in about
a month and a half vinyl features full color two sided insert and
lyric sheet. glass candy's first official video is finished too.
directed by travis peterson in l.a. (he also shot amazing videos
for nite jewel, geneva jacuzzi & areil pink) shot the night before
they slaughtered coachella last year. we'll post it as soon as it gets
out of production. here's the track list for the 12" (26 minutes of
unreleased musick) :

Side One
FEELING WITHOUT TOUCHING (Video Mixx)
SUGAR & WHITEBREAD (2010)
COVERED IN BUGS (2010)
Side Two
SHINE LIKE GOLD & DIAMONDS (2010)
SUGAR & WHITEBREAD (Instrumental)
FEELING WITHOUT TOUCHING (Instrumental)

rumor has it that they are throwing a bonus mystery track on the
b side... also... the new farah "GAY BOY" 12" is done.
recorded in november of 2008, and mixed last week in montreal.
probably the strangest record we have ever heard. we've been
scratching our heads for over a year trying to figure out what to
do with this one. a cult classic for sure. imagine ll cool j's "i need
love" & the shangri las "leader of the pack" through the eyes of a
valley girl on lithium. an out take from the new farah lp "INTO
ETERNITY" suite 304 studio sessions. her debut full length lp on
the way this spring. desire just added another installment to their
ongoing tour photo blog.

Desire Blog

in other news...the two year chromatics hiatus is over.
rumors of break-ups etc...are all false.
johnny, ruth, adam, and natty have been back in the studio
working on a new 2 x lp. keep your fingers crossed...it
might be out in time for autumn! their darkest work yet.
maybe we can talk them into touring again.
according to mr. jewel, it covers 13 years of music written
between 1996 & 2009. touching on everything from the velvet
underground to kristopher komeda to gate. and for everyone
wanting "NIGHT DRIVE" on vinyl... good news... we should finally
have it this summer. the album as we know it was originally a
tour demo. we never expected it to blow up so fast, and they
never got the chance to properly mix or master it. the new vinyl
version is going to be a double lp with four unreleased bonus tracks!!!
we are pleaed to announce that the new italians do it better label
sampler is almost done. "INTO THE BLACK" (aka after dark pt. 2)
features new & exclusive tracks from desire, glass candy, chromatics,
mirage, farah, bottin, twisted wires, appaloosa... three years in the
making. it's going to be epic!!!

FOR TEDDY

one of the best voices of all time. will never be touched.

SHOULD WE BRING BACK KILLER KUTS???

i just looked through the old Killer Kuts from 2006, 2007
and realized how many killer kuts were in there... some
serious killer stuff and this was way before disco was cool!
should we bring it back?

Mike Simonetti djing in Chicago this weekend

a day trip to the windy city:

new mix by MIKE SIMONETTI

hello. Mike found some time to do a new mix. Its
called BACK TO AFRICA and it was done for Cosmic
Disco website, one of our favorite sites. This was
made with old 45s and lps and even a few 12"s
thrown in.
You may remember the AFRICAN CONNECTION mix.
It is all African music (obv). This is part 2 of the mix.
Part 1 is still floating around the world wide web if you
use the Google. Anyway enjoy this mix. Try to find
these tracks! Enjoy these insane Afro cosmic sounds...

hello, we have a very small number of copies of the
new NITE JEWEL "Falling Far"/"Spiritual Nite Life" 7"

pressed. if you are interested in this record email
me at mike at troublemanunlimited dot com. We arent
putting it in the store because we dont have many
for sale. warning though, its a little pricey, being
an import and all that. THANX!

New mix from Anton Qlint (Tiedye)

Happy New Year. Sorry we've been out of touch.
We were busy gearing up for 2010, working,
sleeping, eating, buying records, making music,
playing with our kids, etc. 2010 is going to be
insane for Italians. expect tons of surprises on
every front, tons of live gigs and some great
news in the close future! Yes very cryptic for
now but it will all fall into place soon enough.

ANYWAY, here is our first mix to start off 2010
and its from our good friends and comrade
Anton Qlint from Tiedye all the way from Gburg
Sweden, one of my favorite places as you know!
Good luck with this one, its full of Scandanavian
rock that you will never be able to find!

Here are your New Years Eve plans:

hello:
here are the New Years Eve plans you asked about.

If you live in San Francisco there is the IDIB NYE party
at the Rickshaw with Glass Candy and Desire. Get
your tickets early as it will sell out (if it hasnt already)

if you are in NYC Mike Simonetti will be playing his
annual NYE gig at Rubulad in Brooklyn from 10:30-
2:30 am. His set will be four hours, so get there
early to get the full effect. But seriously, it will a be
super great time on either coast. Rubulad is at a
secret location so hit me up for details on Myspace
or Twitter...

MERRY CHRISTMAS- a Christmas tape from DJ KAOS

new mix from STEELE BONUS

Steele is one of the best djs in Australia possibly. We share
a lot of the same theories on music and djs and all that stuff.
Plus he clued me in on some tracks i never heard of, AND we
hung out at this record store with a wannabe comedian record
clerk... Pretty insane stuff. Anyway, we played together last
year on my first trip out there (or at least thats what they tell me).
Last time i was out there we hung out which was excellent. If
it wasnt for him i would have been stranded in Sydney for like
6 days all alone. so big props to Steele for real. This mix is
great- one of my favorites of this year methinks. Its all over
the place, just how i like it. enjoy the last mix of 2k9!

Steele Bonus presents: "Feel The Drive"

new mix from Simon/Baggy (Cosmic Disco)

Last time i was in Manchester Simon took me
record shopping to this awesome shop called
Endless Music in Prestwich. The owners were
really nice as well, which is rare... most record
store guys are surly and unhappy with themselves.
But this place yeilded many many returns in the
form of super rare records. i mean SUPER rare,
and very cheap! Ive been record shopping many
times in my life but this was one of the best
trips i've had in a while.. as a matter of fact,
the next day i went shopping and got even
more killer stuff in Manchester. So yea,
Manchester is great for record shopping...
ANYWAY, I told Simon he should do a mix for
the IDIB blog with all the records he got in
Manchester.

HERE IT IS

DESIRE "If I Cant Hold You Tonight" 12" - OUT NOW!

Now available for mailorder is the new Desire "If I Cant
Hold You Tonight" 12". You may recognize the song from the
Desire cd, but the song was re-done and extended to
almost 9 minutes. Also included is a more stripped down
version, acapella version and the original demo version
from the cd. The new version is deeper, heavier, and
crisper- perfect for the dancefloor or your headphones.
This is our last release of the year, and quite possibly
the best, so go out with a bang!

Also we are running very low on some old back catalog
titles, and we wont be repressing them, so grab them
before they disappear!

Mike @ Zoukout 2009 Singapore this weekend

hello. i assume you all got your plane tickets for this weekend's

The lineup this year is pretty insane and diverse. Looking forward
to checking out some of the other djs on the beach, especially
since its cold as hell in NYC...

Zoukout

Then I will come home and relax for a month before heading out
to Europe and do it all over again. ALSO, New Years Eve 2009 I
will be back at Rubulad in NYC as is the "tradition" of the last 5
years or so. Because of my insane schedule i havent been able to
play there since last New Years...

Remember when Michael Jackson died? (EDIT DUMP ALERT)

...Seems like it was only a few months ago.. Oh wait- it
was a few months ago. This little ditty was composed the
afternoon he died while watching CNN footage and the
little man took his afternoon nap.

(Mike will be djing in Manchester on Nov 6)

back on Beats In Space

hello. in an effort to keep content on this blog
i am posting that i will be djig on Beats In Space
tomorrow. i hear its a pretty cool radio show.
you should check it out. I'll be playing mostly
weird left-field dance music tomorrow revolving
around post punk/synth and artsy fartsy dance
music.

the reason we have been so slow to update is
due to constant traveling/touring. Look out
for a new 12" in a few days added to the store,
as well as some other stuff like more shirts.
keep an eye out for glass candy/desire on tour
of europe in the upcoming months. Ill be
joining in for the fun on the weekends as i
have to hold it down at home during the week.

keeping the post punk theme going:

BEN MANZONE has better taste in music than all of us

my man Ben Manzone just started a podcast. Some of the
best tracks around. seriously....
