PVT x Dorian Concept

Dorian Concept’s “Trilingual Dance Sexperience” has been a major summer jam for me with its over the top jovial jazzy chords. And after watching this live/DJ performance of Mr. Dorian himself, you can really understand how passionate he is and that in the end he just wants to have fun with his music. PVT enlists Dorian Concept to rework their synth-prog track “Window” into a jazzed out choir-esque tune, full of shoegaze synths and 7th chords.

Jamiroquai x Penguin Prison

The 90s are back. Remember that dude who was dancing in that bleeding room? Well here he is again. Jamiroquai gets the Penguin Prison disco pop treatment for his latest single “White Knuckle Ride” creating a super disco meets late 80s New Edition sounding pop. Once again such an amazing drum sounds from Mr. Prison.

The XX x Tiga

A very bittersweet and trudging remix by Tiga who strips down “Shelter” down to its bare bones. Thus creating a hypnotic and deep track perfect for those after-afterparties.

A few words from Mr. Tiga himself:
“There’s just something special about making out in London, your mouth bursting with toffee and emotion, that ugly ferris wheel thing looming in the distance…This remix is a love letter to British Romance, from the heart of a Canadian Revolutionary.”

Friendly Fires x Depeche Mode

Friendly Fire’s singer bro does his best Dave Gahan impression on this cover of “Strangelove” for the upcoming Gucci Guilty campaign. A star studded collaboration with a commercial shot by Frank Miller starring Evan Rachel Wood. This is one of my favorite Depeche Mode songs and Friendly Fires adds their touch in a good way to the song. I especially like that they retain the way Dave Gahan says “A-gain” during the bridge.

DJ Mehdi – Dear Summer: 33 Minutes of Sunshine

Yet another fantastic quality 33 minute mix from my favorite Ed Banger DJ, DJ Mehdi. I will let the mix and tracklist speak for itself. Enjoy some exclusive tracks such as some new Carte Blanche remixes and a new Cassius that is a pseudo-dubstep/La Funk Mob sounding track.

Gold Panda – Snow & Taxis

Gold Panda’s “Snow & Taxis” is a delicately crafted song that conjures introspective and contemplative thoughts a la Mount Kimbie/Burial/Four Tet but in a very uplifting and positive way with its House-y beats and sparkling glockenspiel. This is a perfect tune to listen to as the summer winds down and the crisp autumn air rolls in.

Late of the Pier x Soulwax

“We’ve been planning this too long.”

More like we have been waiting for too long for this remix. Classic “banger” remix via the Soulwax boys but still so good and what better to accompany this banger than a super weird and mutated version of the hipster girl filled original video to one of my fav singles of the year, “Best In The Class”.

Groove Theory x George Fitzgerald

An amazing remix of a classic 90s slow jam by Groove Theory via Joy Orbison’s protege, George Fitzgerald. A chilled out, UK, off-kiltered, delicate, dance track that echoes and recontextualizes the 90s in the best way possible. Cheers, Mr. Fitzgerald.

Friendly Fires x Azari & III


As we all wait for a new Friendly Fires album this latest Bugged Out Suck My Deck mix mixed by the trio will have to suffice. The UK trio teams up with the Toronto House duo to produce a track that pays homage to the classic NYC House sound that we all know and love. Listen to “Stay Here” a track made exclusively for this mix, maybe this is a hint to what the new album will sound like.
