Today's feature is an original track from Sydney native L D R U (a.k.a. Drew Carmody) featuring Gem June. Two weeks ago I featured this nineteen year old Australian producer for his chillout remix of Flume's "Sleepless feat. Jezzabell Doran." You can listen to all of L D R U's tunes right here.

Two Fingers just released his debut full-length album Stunt Rhythms on Big Dada recordings on October 8th, and has had a slew of additional releases under the moniker including "Vengeance Rhythm," the most recent single, released on October 24th. An artist's blurb on Ninja Tunes website accompanying the releases states the following:

"Amon Tobin presents the next brutalist masterpiece wired up under his Two Fingers guise, "Vengeance Rhythm." A low-slung exercise in violence  brooding power and pure production smarts, in the words aof a recent Resident Adviser feature, it's "a little like dubstep built on an interplanetary scale."

The tune has been brought to life (and death) in a truly jaw-dropping video from stop-frame animator and director Chris Ullens. Ullens transforms a pile of toys, a love of super slo-mo explosions and a huge pile of mince into the funniest, most eye-popping and shocking exercise in animated ultra-violence since Oliver Postgate found out Bagpuss was cheating on him with Professor Yaffle."

Warning: This video is not for the feint of heart stuffed animal enthusiasts.

Secret Halloween Warehouse Party feat. RJD2, FreQ Nasty, Random Rab, Govinda and More (10/27)

With so much already going on in the weekends before and after Halloween this year, who would have thought there'd be any room for another big event? Well, when your event is a secret warehouse party in Brooklyn that features RDJ2, FreQ Nasty, Random Rab, David Starfire, Govinda, Dulce Vita,  Srikalogy and Dynasty Electric as well as fire dancers, artists and circus performers, you better make room!

Unicorn Meat NYC is hosting Illuminate at an as-of-yet unnamed warehouse in East Williamsburg (off the Grand stop) on October 27th. Having attended a similar event two years ago for Halloween I can say that this will certainly be something you don't want to miss, but definitely get there early, because the Fire Marshall will be eager to get there as well, and once they do they likely won't be letting anyone else in for some time.

Tickets are available here for $35, and the venue's locations will be released on the 27th to all ticket holders. If you're planning on going, buy your tickets in advance, because they won't be available at the door.
