[malcolmjamalawesome]

I respect this.

[HandBanana]

Shit yeah.
Popped in to post that EM too.

[DFrank]

I approve. I SAID I APPROVE.

[guedita]

Dude, I missed them when they came to SF in September. Totally support this...thanks for the tracklist Russell.

[ELECtROjan]

Best Essential Mix in months if not the year. Hope you enjoy it cara

[Daft Fro]

It's like candy. Really delicious afternoon Sahara candy. :D


This.

If this EM is anything like the Episode II mix, it's going to be solid.

[TheCutestBoyAlive]

fuck yeah I love the twelves. Their metric remix is way better than the original!!

[darthlaker]

That remake they did by Daft Punk is damn dope!

[johnnypolite]

Really like their Fever Ray remix

[biggfoot17]

I fully support this

[Young blood]

Oh cool, laptop noise. With a daft punk remix? amazing...

[Daft Fro]

This mix is pure win. I haven't heard all of the EM's of 2009, but this one is definitely up there.

[HandBanana]

The EM never loses its flavor. It's a total go-to.

Want them in the Sahara!

[MonOm]

Yes. Yes. Yes.

[Monklish]

Seems fairly dope.

[Pixiessp]

I am listening. So far so good.

[Monklish]

Reckoner remix slips a couple of times but is generally pretty tight.

[guedita]

Anyone who remixes the Alan Parsons Project is awesome.

[FoxeyLady]

http://www.h2dj.com/uclaradionews/files/borat-high-five.jpg

[cubrocker]

yes please

[ELECtROjan]

this mix is all win. bring them

[Amneeziac]

Glad these guys are picking up steam as it's well-deserved.

[Devin the Dude]

they sound great, but what's up with that setup? so simple, so boring.

[arya.]

yes.

[Devin the Dude]

ok, listened to the Essential Mix.

this is required to appear at coachella.

[guedita]

ok, listened to the Essential Mix.

this is required to appear at coachella.

Especially considering how tuned into indie-acts these guys are...being at Coachella sounds perfect for them!

[crazzz2007]

they sound great, but what's up with that setup? so simple, so boring.

You do realize that 90% of the "complicated" setups you prefer are just for show, right? Right? What's the point of having 1000 buttons to push if you only use a very small number of them? Get your head out of your ass.

[R41N570RM]

this is the mix of the year (2009) for me.
I would be so thrilled to see these guys at coachella.

[ELECtROjan]

Yeah its too bad it came out so late in the year. The Sharam mix (that won EM of the year) is crap

[Norwalkguy]

i fully support this..

[AShortTermEffect]

I've got the mix on my Ipod. It's good. Very danceable.

[daft$tar]

bumpin the fuck out of this thread - keep it at the top everyone

[weezy f baby]

I heard about them before you did. That makes me cooler.

[moomoo]

Girl Talk but with music we like.

[jsun420]

i missed The Twelves at SXSW last yr for Boys Noize.... and sumthin tells me that was a huge mistake!!! If they were to be at Coachelle this yr it would def be a MUST SEE!!! i give The Twelves my approval for the Sahara Tent this yr!!! :)

[ELECtROjan]

signed. again

[A-Ron]

I'm wit this

[GeezrRckr]

Yeah its too bad it came out so late in the year. The Sharam mix (that won EM of the year) is crap

sharam's isn't crap, but this one is far superior. i see why you all are jacked on these guys.

signed.

EDIT: this is CLEARLY superior to Sharam's. This is the best EM of 2009, hands down. Jeebus, some of these remixes are pure gold.

[DFrank]

BUMP. This is going to happen!

[HandBanana]

I hope so. Need an antidote to all the generic bangers and plodding stuff

[sandston]

These guys are an absolute must for the sahara tent this year. Goldenvoice has been so good at being ahead of the curve on the music front. These guys just came out of no where with the real Emix of the year. Watch there live remixes on Youtube and be very impressed. Add the live Bass playing and occasional drums. Bring this shit please!

[darkjustice]

dope

[ELECtROjan]

if you want a bunch of their singles / remixes get them HERE (http://hypem.com/#/search/the%20twelves/1/)

hypem is one of the best sites in music

[Mordecai]

I was hoping for these dudes last year but they weren't big enough. Although it sounds like they've only gotten better. That EM is pure gold.

Im a retard. I have been sending this essential mix to everyone for like a week or two now, yet I couldnt seem to find the "Emix" that you mentioned.

Lol. I am barely sentient.

[MaXiMuS501]

I saw these guys at Avalon in Feb last year and they killed it. It went crazy when they mixed in Radiohead's Reckoner (one of my favorite remixes in a long time). They would be absolutely perfect for a late afternoon slot in the Saraha. Don't miss it if they are there!

[HandBanana]

More.....

http://this.bigstereo.net/2009/07/05/the-12s/

[GeezrRckr]

i see these guys being the plump djs of last year. totally killing it and winning new believers.

[thedrun]

Soooo good. I hope they kill the Sahara this year.

[A-Ron]

Wow awesome site. Thx

[ELECtROjan]

Like the lineup, want these guys there too. Bump

[GeezrRckr]

late add.

wait for it.

[MaXiMuS501]

I really hope so. They could be a late add for Friday or Sunday. Looks like they need to add a few electronic artists for afternoon sets...

[Devin the Dude]

WHY IS THIS NOT ON THE LINEUP!?

[cjamesgo8421]

This is the first thread I've read with no negative comments...and The Twelves are a lot of fun I've seen them twice!

[ELECtROjan]

these guys NEED to be on the lineup. Im bumping it every day from now on out

[redthreat]

Girl Talk but with music we like.

that's a joke, right?

[Devin the Dude]

sounded pretty serious to me.

holy shit that Twelfth Hour... needs to be at coachella. this must be a surprise late add. must be.

[thedrun]

Can this please happen?

I've gotten all my roommates addicted to the BBC mix. Really good stuff.

[ELECtROjan]

BUMP.

Everyone talks about them in other threads, lets move the discussion here

[Devin the Dude]

good man, russel. you got taste homie!

what else is out there besides the Essential Mix and The Twelfth Hour? only heard these two and i'm hooked. bouncing between them and BN and Four Tet all week. :pulse

[Leeartlee]

The EM track list looks bumpin'. I'm kinda ashamed I haven't heard of these guys before. I guess that's what I get for moving out of the city.

[greghead]

Good. God.

I just finished the Ess. Mix and really, really hope GV is able to get these guys to the polo fields.

[guedita]

In their essential mix they talk about how they like to be up close with their audience, and so far they've only played in smallish venues, right? I wonder if that had something to do with them not being at Coachella (or maybe there wasn't an offer). Hmmm....bring them to me somehow, GV.

[ELECtROjan]

i think it slipped GV's mind over anything else

[guedita]

Their current tour schedule has been updated:

Sat 05/01/10 Le Belmont Montreal QC
Thu 05/06/10 Venue Vancouver BC
Fri 05/07/10 The Yard Venice Beach CA

I still hope this means they'll be in SF on the 8th, though it seems geographically strange.

[HandBanana]

Naw. Thats mad easy to do.

[GeezrRckr]

what the fuck is "the yard" ?? seems to me they need another manager or something...they're not doing it right!

[chickonmytip]

bump! this is some groovy shit...perfect sahara late add. essential mix highlights are daft punk voyager through the virgins - rich girls

[ELECtROjan]

Michael Jackson — Thriller (Instrumental) ---> Justice - Stress

second half highlight

[bender]

yes please!

[sandston]

What!!!!!!!!!!!!!! the Twelves are slated to play in Venice. I cannot confirm this anywhere. Link please anyone. There is a bar called the Yard nearby in Santa Monica but it seems unlikely that the Twelves would ply there. What a treat that would be if they did.

[Mr.Wyndham]

this is great!

[Zulfikar]

Praying for a late add. I was really anticipating them to be on the lineup.

[unknown]

Finally getting around to listening to their Essential Mix. Wow. They would be a lot of fun!

[HAMMERHEAD]

they had a good breakout year i was kinda expecting them to make the lineup : /

[guedita]

oh, hells yeah. already going to the Los Campesinos! show but catching the 12's after should work out nicely. badass!

[ELECtROjan]

Still Waiting Goldenvoice...

[DFrank]

I love their Fever Ray-Seven remix.

Excited they'll be in Venice in May (if this is true) but i need this at Coachella.

[DFrank]

Sorry guys, looks like they wont be added. I sent an email requesting their presence and they responded with:

Yeah, we would love to go, but I don't think we'll be around the US in Apirl.

We had a lot fun when our name was on the fake poster. hehe.

Cheers,

Now we can move on...

[the choice cat]

damn that is a shame.. but more for their career than us southern californians who will just catch them in may.

[the choice cat]

and damn they aren't even listed on the websites calendar, only as "local djs"

haha i sent a message to their gmail account "thetwelves@gmail.com". They responded in just a few hours which was pretty impressive. I guess we're going to have to see them in Venice.

[IRSCOTT]

To bad, would be amazing add for 2010
