No Ground Under is part of the long list for the Polaris Prize 2008.

“The Long List consists of the top 40 full-length Canadian records released from June 1, 2007 to May 31, 2008, selected by the 185 members of the Polaris Music Prize jury.

The Polaris Jury will now vote from the Long list to determine the 10 album Short List, which will be revealed July 7 at the Drake Hotel in Toronto.

The Polaris Prize is judged solely on artistic merit, without any regard for record sales; the idea is to reward outstanding Canadian artists who may or may not be enjoying proportionally outstanding sales. The winner of the prize will receive $20,000 and some pretty hefty press.”

Ghislain Poirier
“Blazin’ feat. Face-T (Modeselektor Remix)”

These are Germans remixing a guy from Montreal.

Who is it?

Modeselektor remixing Ghislain Poirier.

Ok.

This seems to be a new mode of post-Techno, sort of what Diplo is doing: an omnivorous free-for-all, everyone putting their beats up online and remixing everybody else.

[Virtual silence from Craig]

Let’s see what else I have here, it’d be nice to play some kind of closing cut.

Play some Santana or something.

I don’t have any Santana.

What?!
