Hercules & Love Affair - My House video
Hercules are back with easily the best video we’ve seen for a long time.
Andy Butler and his team return, having parted ways with DFA, with the first single taken from their forthcoming album Blue Songs out on Moshi Moshi January 31st.
The video accompanying the first single is an immaculately authentic homage to early 90s late-night cable TV dance music shows, and is quite frankly tantamount to genius. Here at Diskotopia we literally can not get enough of this. Check it out now. If you have seen it already, check it out again!

Prins Thomas
I went to see Prins Thomas at Unit in Daikanyama last week. This was the 3rd time I’ve been to see him in the last 3 years, so I was very interested to see how his Tokyo shows differed from the 2 shows I had previously been to in Osaka.
