  Van She - Kelly Reissue
  Exclusive, Release, Remix (10)

  In a shrewd move by Modular Van She are re-releasing their best track to date Kelly with a stack of remixes. When I first heard about this I thought it was a pretty cynical thing to do for a company who've had a few losses over the last couple of years. It's a great track but is this really necessary? Surely they could invest that cash in a new act, help buy back some of the Bumblebeez gear from the meth heads who stole it or throw another half million bucks at the Avalanches new album Chinese Democracy. This is also the ...

  Sneaky Sound System - Breakbot Remix
  Release, Remix (5)

  Sneaky Sound System have been pumping the releases of late that I've been getting into. It's been a while since I really got into one of their tracks with the last highly thrashed track being "I Love It" or the Van She Tech remix of "UFO". And maybe it is Breakbot who really brought this track to my attention as the remix dropped into my inbox. This remix slays the original, turning into a complete jam. A four pack of jams. A festival of jam. Thankfully he also removes the one line that makes me dislike the original "I told you ...

  Ted & Francis Remix Empire Of The Sun
  Release, Remix (2)

  I've been really enjoying the Empire Of The Sun album, pretty much from start to finish. It's funny that while I enjoyed some of the Sleepy Jackson material I found Luke Steeles vocals a little frustrating at times but in this "light dance" context I am warming to it. Ted & Francis are a two piece out of Sydney recently signed to Kitsune. They are also known as Like Woah! and have done a bunch of original tracks and remixes in the past. Ted & Francis signals the start of a more relaxed, melodic pace for the duo with a track ...

  A Fit Of Great
  Release, Remix (5)

      It's always hard to make a strong comeback when you've been away for a while. New Kids On The Block, Britney Spears and Van She all make good cases, to varying degrees, of how hard it can be to come back strong. So here are a bunch of tracks I have been playing fairly hard lately. A track filled post is one way to ease back into the pleasures of blogging on the regular so here it is. I met up with Shazam briefly when I was last in Perth and he'd just started to work on this remix. While it was ...

  Events (6)

  With half of Melbourne still getting over the gurn fest that was Parklife, and the rest of the country still to experience that particular brand of ecstasy, the first Big Day Out lineup has just been announced. And it's a really mixed bag. Neil Young The Prodigy Arctic Monkeys My Morning Jacket Pendulum Bullet For My Valentine TV On The Radio (squee!) Simian Mobile Disco (Fuck yes! Finally!) The Ting Tings (Duncan's verdict: ???) Salmonella Dub Cut Copy (is this their 4th BDO in a row?) COG Youth Group The Grates Birds of Tokyo TZU Sneaky Soundsystem Eddy Current Suppression Ring I am most excited about SMD after overseas friends have told me about how amazing their live show ...
