Sashaofficial – DJ Sasha – V_rtek Glastonbury 2010 Remastered – SoundCloud.

Ministry of Sound, London's hugely influential and longstanding nightclub, is currently faced with a very unsettling prospect: a new residential tower cropping up right across the street, threatening the venue's entertainment license.Fears first arose when property developer Oakmayne submitted an application for a new apartment building in Elephant and Castle, at the site of the old Eileen House. If built, the residence tower would place 369 private apartments just a stone's throw away from the bustling night club, inevitably challenging MoS's current method of operation. When asked about his project's potential interference with the world-famous venue, Oakmayne chairman Christopher Allen stated simply that "nightclubs come and go."But Ministry of Sound has so far proven much more durable than most. The venue first opened its doors in the fall of 1991, and has since become one of the world's most successful nightclubs, with thousands of massive parties and literally millions of patrons. MoS is also one of dance music's most recognisable brands, with a hugely lucrative record label and several famous compilation series, such as Hed Kandi, Global Underground, Euphoria and Dance Nation. With all of its various branches combined, MoS grosses over £80 million per year.Nonetheless, the people at MoS see Oakmayne's plans as an extremely serious threat to their South London home. Lohan Presencer, CEO of the Ministry of Sound Group, issued this statement earlier today:“When Oakmayne told us that 'nightclubs come and go', we were horrified. Ministry of Sound is not just any nightclub; it’s the most famous nightclub in the world and the heart of a global entertainment business. These developers have cut corners at every stage and counter to their claims, they do not have the best interests of the local community at heart. We must do everything in our power to save our club and our business”.

Those dates can be found at U2s website.The 2010 shows–which also will include a late-summer/early fall European trek–will continue to feature the massive stage set the band has been using over this year, designed by long-time U2 associate Willie Williams in collaboration with architect Mark Fisher, an “in-the-round” design that seeks to afford every fan in attendance an unobstructed view of the band on stage.In late October, TheWrap.com reported that the “170-ton, $40 million, four-pronged stage [is] so enormous, its overhead so costly,” that the band still hadnt broken even on the tour, even after four months on the road in the US and elsewhere.With shows so far this year in 44 cities, the band has already played before more than three million fans in 2009, according to a press release.U2 is touring behind its 12th studio album, “No Line on the Horizon,” which surfaced in February.

Pole Folder – Hate Myself (Sasha Remix) by KishCommunications

You really really reallllllllly can’t go wrong having the almighty SASHA remix your track congrats to Pole Folder on this, looking forward to the album!

Pole Folder returns to the fold with his latest single from his La Tour label, Hate Myself. which has been remixed by the master himself, Sasha.
To those with even the most passing of interests in dance music, Sasha needs no introduction. Few of his peers can match his outstanding contributions driving electronic music forward or claim such a dedicated army of fans – both of which have ensured his consistent presence amongst the world’s Top 10 DJs for the past decade.
Sasha’s remix is true testament to his legendary status, lending his perfect ear to add a beauty and timelessness to Pole Folder’s already faultless original. Hate Myself is not your traditional peak-time hit, but with Sasha already testing it out on the road, it seems to be working as his current dancefloor destroyer!
In trademark Pole Folder style Hate Myself has a melancholic vibe, which Sasha then merges with an intense bassline, and intertwines noodly, scratchy overlays. The surreal chanting vocal staggers in and out, while the driving bassline, the sudden clanging, and the ominous, disjointed sounds all seem to merge to form a fluid cacophony of sound. Pole Folder says “Since I discovered Sasha through Northern Exposure 1 he has continued to blow me away… Having Sasha do a remix for La Tour is a dream come true for me.”
Hate Myself will be La Tour’s 5th release this year, and is the perfect single to cement their reputation as one of the best up and coming labels of 2009. Pole Folder is currently locked in his ‘80Hz’ studio writing his second album “The Helsinki Accord”, due for release winter 2009. This will feature the original of Hate Myself.

NIIIIICE!!

YouTube is continuing its push into the live video streaming realm, despite assurances it gave last year that it wouldn’t enter the space because it was too expensive.

The Google-owned video website has streamed the Outside Lands concert and an Obama press conference in recent months, but now it’s going to stream the Rose Bowl concert of one of the world’s most popular bands: U2

The live streaming event, which begins on Sunday, October 25th at 8:30 PM PT, will be available in 16 countries. The live feed will be available on the U2 Official Channel, and feature a live Twitter (Twitter) feed of chatter about the concert, exactly like what the company did for its full-length viewing of Taxi Driver.

The world’s largest video website, in a conference call earlier today, explained that it is seeking to experiment in live video. Clearly, YouTube (YouTube) sees some type of potential in this emerging market, as live video players Ustream (ustream), Justin.tv, and Livestream have started to prove the viability of this market.

A U2 concert is one of the best events to live stream, in our opinion, given the band’s massive popularity. The question we’re still asking is: What exactly is the company’s plan with live streaming? In the meantime, we want to know: will you watch the concert? Let us know in the comments.

Where was I during the casting call of this video?!?!

My favorite track from my favorite DJ, this is one of those tracks that seriously changed how I listened to music. I remember I didn’t really know Sasha’s music at the, but I would see that record everywhere… over time I discovered Sasha, and this track and I’ve been a fan since. Nice to see it’s got a revamp for 2009
