COOL MUSIC ♪ Unicorn Kid

Oliver Sabin, also known as Unicorn Kid is a Scottish electronic music/chip music composer and musician from Edinburgh. When asked about the name of the act, Sabin states "There’s no real story behind the name, it just kind of came about and fitted in with the fun, magical nature of the music." Sabin first started writing electronic music when he was 15. By the time he was 16, Sabin started recording under the name “Unicorn Kid”. Emerging in 2007, Unicorn Kid helped spark the brief revival of chiptune, a genre which involves making dance music using the sound chips from old game consoles. This was alongside such performers as Anamanaguchi, RushJet1 and Dubmood.


He first started producing and mixing seapunk-styled music, inspired in the sea and the space. After his considerable first success, Pure Space, he changed his style into more hardcore tunes. Now he is considered on the of the main representants of the come-back of raving, a music movement which features electronic music and light or laser shows.

COOL MUSIC ♫ Crystal Castles

Crystal Castles is a Canadian electronic experimental band formed in 2004 in Toronto consisting of producer Ethan Kath and vocalistAlice Glass. The duo is known for their chaotic live shows and lo-fi melancholic homemade productions.
Crystal Castles musical style has been described as "ferocious, asphyxiating sheets of warped two-dimensional Gameboy glitches and bruising drum bombast that pierces your skull with their sheer shrill force, burrowing deep into the brain like a fever."
To listen to Crystal Castles, according to the BBC, "is to be cast adrift in a vortex of deafening pain without a safety net. You get the feeling you could do anything in the world, but that 'anything' would ultimately mean nothing. Crystal Castles marks a nuanced emotional territory that dance music never covered before."
Here I leave you the music video for one of their biggest success 'Baptism' and also their last one, 'Sad eyes'.
