Ryuichi Sakamoto Event at SOHO GRAND NYC 9/04
An amazing event Phil Painson and I DJ'ed - and at which we premiered our INDOCHINA Remix of Ryuichi's song "War & Peace."
Ben Butler and Vance (aka DJ Kenosha) helped set it up under the auspices of Tommy Saleh & Mandy.
An amazing electronic laptop performance by Ryuichi in live improvisational collaboration with noted composers Christina Wheeler and o.blaat (Keiko). An historic moment.

Hintmag is a cool online fashion magazine.
They do these flash Fashion Editorial Features that are more like great E-Cards, featuring cool visuals, and great music, usually of the electro-new wave variety. Check these out!

KCRW // Jason Bentley 'Metropolis'
One should tune into KCRW - straight outta Santa Monica - as often as possible.
You can hear the station (89.9 FM) all over Southern California, and via KCRW's website. KCRW is featured on iTunes Radio under 'Eclectic.'
Nic Harcourt's 'Morning Sounds Eclectic' show is a great way to stay updated with the very newest music in a wide range of genres (indie, singer-songwriter, etc.). Other great shows on the station include Garth Trinidad's 'Chocolate City' and Scott Silva's 'Nocturna.'
My favorite: Jason Bentley's 'Metropolis' (on the air weeknights 7:30-10 PM), probably the best cutting-edge electronic/dance radio show in the US.

Music One on iTunes Radio
Great sound (128 kbps). High-quality commercial Dance-Music.
Perhaps the most consistent music source on iTunes Radio.
Listed by iTunes under both 'International' and 'Electronica' streams.
You can check their website at:
http://www.m1live.com/
It's not a great site, and I always recommend streaming via iTunes rather than from a station's website.
