Afterglow (Akira Kiteshi Remix)
This is without doubt one of the biggest remixes we’ve heard in a very, very long time.
Phaeleh’s smooth and laid back original is transformed into a monster of a beat. The soft female vocals are kept throughout which maintains it’s semi-commercial presence and opens it’s doors to more popular times on mainstream radio – which in turn is great for producer Akira Kiteshi.
Released on Chemical Records later this month – you can purchase this beast via the link below.

White Russia
I sometimes like to compare The Mahogany Blog to a butchers, a very picky butchers at that. We’re lucky enough to be on the receiving end of some great music from around the world and we wait patiently for the choice cuts to come into us.
That may mean that a few days go past with no posts and that’s simply because we don’t post anything that doesn’t make our ears or eyes twitch.
Today, one such artist defines ‘choice cut’ and has got us writing frantically to get it out to you.
The band biog describes the sound better than we could so…
White Russia are an alternative/electronic act from South London building a strong reputation for their colossal live sound. Marina Elderton’s hauntingly beautiful voice sits perfectly over the harsh industrial sounds from producer Benjamin Bufton. Drawing these organic and mechanical elements together, White Russia create an immersive and evocative atmosphere through their music. Taking influence from acts such as Bjork, Depeche Mode and Placebo, things are really picking up speed for this unique act.
Their latest masterpiece is O’ Jerusalem is a whole 9-minutes of constructive beauty and we’re lucky enough to be able to stream that track to you today.
