Today Holy Ghost! released their remix EP of their next single “Wait & See”. It is a collection of remixes that take this already dancefloor friendly track deeper into the House world with remixes by Richard X, Moby and Kris Menace. The CFCF remix does the opposite, taking the big hooks of “Wait & See” and submersing them into a beach friendly/Balearic Disco setting. #Poolvibes all around….
Slice & Soda is Para One and San Serac’s new project and an album is finally about to emerge. An EP was released today with some amazing remixes by L-VIS 1990, Jackson and this massive disco remix by Belgium’s own Villa. Big sounds, big tunes for a big world #internet.
The HiFi Cartel have teamed up with the legendary R&S Records to bring the US James Blake’s first ever DJ set in NYC at Tammany Hall. Be there to witness James Blake drop some of his amazing “Harmonimix” Remixes – check out my two favs, his remix of Outkast’s “Ms. Jackson” and Quasimoto’s “Broad Factor”.
The Hey Champ trio have emerged once again with the “Anything At All” EP which is out May 10. It is a collection of three songs that are sure to impress as they show off a matured and confident sound with the single “Anything At All”. They teamed up with Eliot James, the producer responsible for Two Door Cinema Club and Bloc Party’s tight production.
Just sit back and let the sounds of this epic Posi-Pop music wash over you. Just bathe in it…
James Pants has always been Stones Throw’s secret weapon, a weirdo talent amongst the gang of beat maestros. He crafts his own version of psychedelic electro pop that always intrigues. His latest self-titled album is no different but I feel has more of an emphasis on the Pop. “Clouds Over the Pacific” feels as if James is channeling some of the lofty pop vibes of Stereolab and Broadcast along side some hypnotic drum machine and a very-preset-pizzacato violin sound. Buy the album here.
Cload Boat are currently supporting the internet/post-dubstep golden boy, James Blake. Cloud Boat are a duo that are experimenting with this genre known as “post-dubstep”. They take Mount Kimbie’s live approach with guitars and James Blake’s RnB vocal manipulation mixed in with some of Bon Iver’s introspective crooning and acoustic guitar to create a very delicate and fresh take on this forever mutating genre. I was most surprised by this clip when that voice came out of that man – a heavily processed falsetto.
Hopefully Cloud Boat will supporting James Blake for his upcoming North American tour. Cloud Boat will be releasing music on R&S Records very soon. Till then listen to this clip of “Lions on the Beach”. Beautiful stuff.
Jai Paul is out of hiding and now armed with a fully compressed and bumping single/edit of his bloghaus hit, “BTSTU”. Jai is now backed by the epic XL Recordings who is providing reinforcements for his upcoming release, an EP or an LP? We will only have to wait and see. I may or may have not heard some other tracks that he is working on and “huge” is an understatement for what Jai Paul has up his sleeve. Also props to Jai Paul for still using a Myspace, lulz.
Do you know what happens when the blogosphere explodes into the “real world” and shit gets “real”? This remix is what happens. I met the talented Alvin Risk back in October after playing with the Jamaica gang at Webster Hall where I introduced him to the guys who said they would love the Alvin Risk remix touch on their next single “Jericho” – fast forward to today, here is the final product. It is a dancefloor revision of a straight-forward pop rock song that will make you dance quite hard and sing along at the same time. I especially love how he turned the intro into an epic bridge.
Pick up the entire Jericho EP which also features a remix from the one and only Todd Edwards.
