WatchSonar Festival is a three day event that showcases music and multimedia art. This years performances were streamed live on Youtube and above is a live set from James Blake at Sonar São Paulo 2012. The 33-minute recording sees Blake show off tracks from his self-titled debut album - one of my favourite’s of 2011, and it sounds unreal with the live band.

WatchI love this bleepy, freaky and glitchy type of stuff - like Crystal Castles, SBTRKT & Mr. Oizo. The latest to come on the scene is London producer Warsnare, with his debut EP, Eris, released on Shades of Grey. The lead title track comes with a video courtesy of David Eglinton. In the 3:51-minute-long animated sequence, you’re warped into a spaceflight and encounter spinning MEGA ancient...
