Empire of the Sun’s second single ‘We Are The People’ now has a filmclip. Shot on location in Mexico, it’s sticking to that hyper-saturated, shiny-boy style. Pretty cool clip, pretty cool song. On a side note I saw Nick Littleworth get out of a cab the other day and he held up the traffic trying to find some cash for the cabbie and everyone honked at him. I laughed. That was a good day.
BONUS: Dorkatronique sent us this cute remix of Walking on a Dream. Check out his originals here, and he plays at Candy’s in Sydney sometime. Do you? No? Bitchin’.

Your new style is so … minimal. It’s clean. I like it. But it doesn’t say who the author of each post is unless you click through.
Oh wow! Kinda ironic/coincidental that you’d do an Empire of the Sun post today cuz… i sent you a track yesterday i don’t know if you got it yet but yeh… it’s an empire of the sun remix. Ahah! You can go to my myspace to listen to it.
that remix is plain annoying, do you listen to what you post?
Yes. More than i listen to people who comment on blogs.
Ouch! First bad critique. But hey that’s good cuz i need it. I don’t have enough bad critique around me so thanks Prince Charming! (Not being sarcastic)
I’d like to hear what you think is so annoying about it though.
Thanks Mandu for posting the track up so quick!

Well Dorkatronique, let me give you my honest critique. The drop is nice but it comes way to late, let your intro last between 16-32 bars.
Sure it makes beat matching easier for the Dj, but for someone listening in on your myspace player, it was monotonous torture.
I had to force myself through the intro to get to the juicy parts
Oh crap! Thanks for pointing that out Danniel. I definitely didn’t think about that. :S I’ve put the shorter version up on myspace now. Let me know if there’s anything else.
to be perfectly frank, the wailing synth that comes in at the 2 minute mark is like someone slamming a knife into your right ear and vigorously twisting.
There’s is another remix of we are the people (The Burns remix) that I think is great: http://nl.youtube.com/watch?v=CpjcuDsdY3U
