Asian Dan

Boston’s own Shuttle has been making quite big moves this year with his little band, Passion Pit but his remixes of acts such as Phoenix have been showing how versatile of a musician and producer he is. His style of dubstep is not your typical wonky basslines, but his music is sound is definitely HUGE in a good way. I could not get enough of his remix of Phoenix’s “Love Like a Sunset” and his recent remix of Body Language’s “Work This City” is quite a catchy one. I love that he included one of my favorite remixes of the year, Joy Orbison’s remix of Four Tet – a massive talent that Nate and I have talked about numerous times.

Be sure to catch him at Webster Hall 1.8.2010 with Holy Ghost! and Classixx to witness his DJing magic. What Shuttle has in store for Twenty-Ten, who knows, maybe a remix of Lady Gaga & Beyonce or a remix of P Diddy featuring Biggie or maybe even finally a mix for Asian Dan…who knows?

Midnight Juggernauts are venturing to the promiseland, Uhmerica to bless us with their psycehedlic-synth sounds that they have been crafting and honing for the past few years. I feel like their latest track “This New Technology” is a conscious effort to say stray away from the to the whole electro/bloghaus/synth-rock genre they were trailblazing. They are now embracing their Prog Rock roots and the rock side of ELO instead of ELO circa “Time” in the 80s with a touch of Fleetwood Mac and a heavy dose of Mellotron.

Memory Tapes and The Juan MacLean bring Midnight Juggernauts back to their electro-rock roots with these remixes of “This New Technology”. Memory Tapes’ remix is very different from his usual chilled out lo-fi productions – showcasing his bangertastic side. Check them both out below as well as the B-side to the “This New Technology” Single.
