Golden Cage

Sunday, February 28th, 2010

Last post of the week and it’s a good one. First heard this dark and funkadelic Golden Bug jam on Aeroplane‘s February Chart Mix. I’ve also been playing The Radio Dept.‘s new album to death and this is another highlight that I think I’m allowed to post. Lastly, this Redial remix reminds me of a GRUM remix and that can only be a good thing.

Listen ♫: Golden Bug – Flamingo♥♥
Listen ♫: The Radio Dept. – David♥♥♥
Listen ♫: Barretso – We Wont Stop (Redial Remix)

Thanks to Too Many Sebastians for a couple of these.

Zane Lowe @ Sugarbeat

Sunday, February 28th, 2010

Had a cracker of a night on Friday seeing Zane Lowe play Sugarbeat at Cabaret Voltaire. Blau! was the first track he played and I hadn’t fully appreciated just how BIG that track was. Here are some more jamz I’ve been bopping my head to. The Rubix remix is by far the best on the Romane EP. This fresh-ass Foamo remix is also catchy as hell. Finally, got emailed by the Don Diablo posse his new track with Sidney Samson. Samsonite! I was way off.

Listen ♫: Bart B More – Romane (Rubix Gypsy Remix)♥♥♥♥
Listen ♫: Major Lazer – Bruk Out (Foamo Remix)♥♥♥
Listen ♫: Don Diablo & Sidney Samson – Rise Up
Listen ♫: Laidback Luke & Lee Mortimer – Blau! (Original Mix)♥♥♥

Thanks to Zaber Riders, and Ilictronix for a couple of these.

Everytime Everyday Anyway ACID

Monday, February 22nd, 2010

Recovering from a blinding hangover so I’ll make this brief(ish). Wee selection of the tunes I’ve been digging the most recently. Can’t believe I hadn’t heard this Dusty Kid track til a few days ago. Kicks in big time at around the 2-minute mark. Also new 80kidz with Lovefoxxx from CSS – easily the best thing either has done for a while – excited for the 80kidz album. Was sent this Russ Chimes remix and must say he’s not put a foot wrong lately. Finally, one of the guys that runs the Killer Kitsch club night at Cabaret Voltaire in Edinburgh (and Glasgow) also does remixes and discovered this prize of a remix he did for Glasgow band Haight Ashbury. Fans of said Chimes and Fred Falke should enjoy.
