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’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.

“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”.
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.

The mighty Flying Lotus cannot be stopped. He is a force that is out to prove he is just a constant flow of creativity and sonic goodness. “Cosmogramma” showed us that he is a musical guru with tracks like “Do The Astral Plane” which has been a summer hit for me. His next EP “Pattern+Grid World” is out 9.21.2010 worldwide on the amazing Warp Records. Listen to “Camera Day” below!

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.

A fantastic mix by the Mystery Jets boys that opens with 2 of my favorite ELO song and my favorite Todd Rundgren track “I Saw The Light”. This is a great 30 min mix that will kick off your weekend on a good note. Also a little Roxy Music, Genesis, and The Police always does a body good.
If you are in NYC Sept 14 and 15 be sure to catch Mystery jets live at Mercury Lounge. I shall be there!

Egyptian Hip Hop, the band that seems to be filling in Late of The Pier’s shoes at the moment teams up with Hudson Mohawke for their new EP, “Some Reptiles Developed Wings” out on Moshi Moshi. This is yet another producer/DJ teaming up with a band to produced some fruitful sonic treats. Hud Mo takes a step back and really lets Egyptian Hip Hop’s sound and vibe shine rather than adding his touch and sound to their tracks, proving that he is really fits into his “Producer Shoes”. Check out two of Psycho-Delic-Tronic tunes from the EP below. Boogie.

Here is a preview of Erol Alkan’s re-working/re-edit/re-visioning of Gonzales’ “Never Stop” out on limited edition vinyl on Phantasy Sound. Erol turns the Rap/Piano track into a disco-techno-electro dancefloor ready tune – nothing revolutionary or different for Mr. Alkan but if anything Erol is preparing us all for the epic “Ivory Tower”.

Kavsrave should be selling is beats to huge R’n’B/Pop Stars. Yet another one of his productions “Deluded” is screaming for Justin Timberlake-esque vocals. The huge stabbing synths and growling bassline will fulfill any of your Timbaland cravings. “Delude” is yet another fantastic production by Kavsrave who has already impressed me with his last release, his “Quotes EP” out on Numbers Records. Big choons.
