Sweetlight
A1: Etienne Daho “Le Grand Sommeil”(Sweetlight Remix)
B1: Mellowdrame in a Mellow World
In Tiga’s words :
"If GOA was cool and filled with French people, and psy-trance never happened....Sweetlight would RULE the beaches".
The first time I heard the name Sweetlight was when I was Djing with Ivan Smagghe and he played this insane trance-rave-bomb and I got acid flashbacks from 94 and ran up to the booth and asked what is that and he said (as if I was the last guy on the planet to find out)....."it's called ABUSATOR". The 2manydjs did an edit, and over the next year, that Sweetlight record was an anthem that we all played EVERYWHERE, one of those records that never let's you down, one of those tracks that makes your job as a DJ very easy. So good it makes you lazy.
Then last year at Sonar, I went to hear them play live, and right before their set I met them, and met Julien and he gave me a CD with some new stuff on it. By ACCIDENT, he gave me a CDR with all his personal stuff as well....and I fell madly in love with one of those songs.....and now after a worldwide legal battle, hundreds of emails, a million rocked parties and a few broken hearts, I am very proud to present "Le Grand Sommeil".
I don't know so much about him, but French people tell me Etienne Daho is a big deal.....and this track is a rave-trance-poptravaganze featuring a big chunk of a famous Daho song. Now I know a lot of you don't like trance or pop or French people....BUT trust me...this is magic. I have been playing it last in my sets all year and it is pure modern trance romance......it is the future and the past all rolled up into one.
And then, just when you are reduced to tears of joy on the dance floor....the b-side brings a gorgeous guitar driven late night New Order lite love-jam to ease you down gently.
I liked this record so much, I re-launched my label for it.
Love

NEWS: LABEL (THE MILITIA GROUP)
We have a nice little surprise with exclusive inside information at the bottom of the newsletter.
You cannot find this news anywhere else.I don´t know how big football is in your house, but here at Militia, its one of the few topics that come up from time to time besides music. If you think you can outplay us, why not join our annual ESPN Fantasy Football Challenge that allows you to pick your team from the entire NFL every week. There are a ton of bands and people from different labels taking part (and a few celebrities as our intern Ali calls them), so why not join us?

Uprising Festival on Saturday
Copeland and Brandtson to play this SaturdayIf you´re anywhere in the Southern California region this Saturday (September 16th), you should cruise over to the Verizon Amphitheater.
There will be a ton of bands, but more importantly you get to get a glimpse of Copeland´s new songs off of their upcoming LP, Eat, Sleep, Repeat. Equally important, is the opportunity to shake your hips to Brandtson.

Tahiti 80 - Tahiti 80 is the band, France is the place (kinda), and 11/14/06 is the date
We would like to start out this newsletter with a kaboom by introducing you to our latest signing, Tahiti 80. The band is a French indie-pop combo. Did I mention that Neal Pogue and Serban Ghenea mixed their latest record, Fosbury? If those two names ring a bell, it´s probably because they are the same two masterminds that engineer for Outkast and NERD. Tahiti 80´s Fosbury hits stores November 14th, 2006. The album is loaded full of exclusive goodies! In addition to two unreleased tracks, we are adding a US exclusive bonus EP with three cover songs and one remix. If you can´t wait two months, head over to their myspace and check out some of the tunes. Make sure to put on your dancing shoes first.Tour dates can be found at themilitiagroup.com.

Denison Witmer - Safe Away re-release with extras, European tour
If you can find me one person who can honestly admit that they did not enjoy Denison´s Are You A Dreamer?, I will hop in my car, drive to said personas location of living, and then proceed to look at them, tilt my head in a quizzical manner, and just stand there until he/she confesses the truth. The CD possesses the Holy Grail quality of being timeless. My grandparents enjoyed it, Mom loves it, my hipster friends like it, and my dog barks at me until I put it in. Denison´s latest Militia release takes a glimpse into his past.
Safe Away was originally recorded when Denison was 19-years-old and it shows someone destined for something huge. The album is a two-disc set featuring Safe Away, a brand new EP entitled Are You A Sleeper?, live tracks w/ Saxon Shore, and other bonus tracks. It is quite the package. The two-disc set comes out October 31, 2006.As far as touring goes, Denison is all over the place. He is playing so shows down here in Southern California before he jumps on the jet and heads across the pond.Tour dates can be found at themilitiagroup.com.

Jill Cunniff - From Luscious Jackson to solo, City Beach release date
Jill Cunniff. You may not know the name but if you had ears and a functional hearing mechanism in the 90s you definitely know her voice. She sang in the band Luscious Jackson that had hits such as Lady Finger and Naked Eye.Her solo album, City Beach, will be released on The Militia Group in early 2007. It´s a guilt-free pop album full of hooks and catchy choruses. It is also mellow enough for a Sunday morning and bouncy enough for a Friday night. You can check out a few of the tunes from “City Beach†on Jill Cunniff´s myspace. Shea´s lonely, go ahead and add her if you like what you hear.

Umbrellas - Illuminare, Scott to Judge design contest, spin.com band of the day, fall tour, new website
Needless to say, everyone here at the office is pretty impressed by Scott Windsor of the Umbrellas latest release. Illuminare hit record store shelves on July 25th and has received critical acclaim. Alternative press gave it a four out of five in their October issue. It´s a pretty saucy album in itself. Check out some of the tracks on Umbrellas myspace. if you haven´t heard anything yet. It´s a great album for seducing that significant others of yours. Or spending another night alone.Mr. Umbrella himself (Scott Windsor of Umbrellas) was selected as a judge for the Umbrella Inside Out Design Contest which is sponsored by treehugger.com. Scott will be judging functional earth-friendly umbrella designs and women´s couture garments fashioned from old umbrellas. Umbrellas were the featured Spin.com band of the day a few weeks ago. They´ve decided Illuminare falls softly between Dashboard Confessional's Trapper Keeper paeans and the Postal Service's delicate synth pop. There´s a free download of Crooked at the bottom of the page. You be the judge.The consensus around the office is that the new Umbrellas website is GLORIOUS. www.umbrellasmusic.com
From September to November, Umbrellas will be bringing their music to a city near you. They will be on tour, in support of Illuminare, with The Forecast, Down to Earth Approach, and New London Fire before crossing paths with Stellamaris and Lakes in October. More will be announced soon so keep an eye on themilitiagroup.com for the latest dates.

Lovedrug - New Website, New Song, New Tour
Getting a new website is kind of like getting a new car. It´s really nice to look at, it smells new, and all you want to do is just get it in and drive. The problem with getting a new car is that you usually don´t want anyone else to get in it and drive. We WANT you to drive Lovedrug´s new website. Lovedrugmusic.com
And while you´re firing up this fine piece of Detroit machinery for the first time, you may notice that there is a new song playing on the stereo. The song is from a limited edition tour EP that Lovedrug will be bringing out on tour with them. Wait, a tour?That being said, Lovedrug is headed out on a headlining tour with Brandtson and the Myriad. They are cruising across America so don´t miss the drug that is love. Barrel roll over to themilitiagroup.com for tour dates.

Brandtson - MTVU Freshman, Wheatus tour, Lovedrug dates
Brandtson´s Nobody Dances Anymore was a part of the MTVU freshman contest. It didn´t win, but should have. You haven´t seen the last of Chad stripping on camera, Wyatt shirtless, and Nobody Dances Anymore. If you missed Brandtson this summer with Umbrellas, don´t fret. There are hitting the asphalt hard with Melee and Corey Crowder before embarking on the Text on the Dance Floor tour with Wheatus, The Fall of Transition, and Mayday Parade.
After the Wheatus tour, they are headed on a cross-country tour with Lovedrug and Myriad. So, if for some reason, you missed them on the Wheatus tour, you now have a chance to redeem yourself.Which brings us to my next point: Brandtson is a touring force to be reckoned with. They are probably coming to your town or a town within 50 miles from you in the next three months.
In fact, from now until mid-December, they only have four or five days off. Now that´s dedication.Their tour dates was too long so we posted them up at themilitiagroup.com

Denison Witmer - Safe Away re-release with extras, European tour
If you can find me one person who can honestly admit that they did not enjoy Denison´s Are You A Dreamer?, I will hop in my car, drive to said personas location of living, and then proceed to look at them, tilt my head in a quizzical manner, and just stand there until he/she confesses the truth. The CD possesses the Holy Grail quality of being timeless. My grandparents enjoyed it, Mom loves it, my hipster friends like it, and my dog barks at me until I put it in. Denison´s latest Militia release takes a glimpse into his past.
Safe Away was originally recorded when Denison was 19-years-old and it shows someone destined for something huge. The album is a two-disc set featuring Safe Away, a brand new EP entitled Are You A Sleeper?, live tracks w/ Saxon Shore, and other bonus tracks. It is quite the package. The two-disc set comes out October 31, 2006.As far as touring goes, Denison is all over the place. He is playing so shows down here in Southern California before he jumps on the jet and heads across the pond.Tour dates can be found at themilitiagroup.com.

Umbrellas - Illuminare, Scott to Judge design contest, spin.com band of the day, fall tour, new website
Needless to say, everyone here at the office is pretty impressed by Scott Windsor of the Umbrellas latest release. Illuminare hit record store shelves on July 25th and has received critical acclaim.

Scott will be judging functional earth-friendly umbrella designs and women´s couture garments fashioned from old umbrellas. Umbrellas were the featured Spin.com band of the day a few weeks ago. They´ve decided Illuminare falls softly between Dashboard Confessional's Trapper Keeper paeans and the Postal Service's delicate synth pop. There´s a free download of Crooked at the bottom of the page. You be the judge.The consensus around the office is that the new Umbrellas website is GLORIOUS. www.umbrellasmusic.com
