I thought this day would never come. Klaxons have released some new material. Pinch me. The track’s called ‘Flashover’ and it premiered just now on Zane Lowe’s Radio 1 show. It leads on well from what made them so brilliant back in 2006/2007. Sounds very Gravity’s Rainbow-like. I’ll leave the description at that and let [...]

Jeuce remix Logistics
May 12th, 2010 | by Sim | published in Download
Jeuce have produced one hell of a cover of Logistic’s classic Kaleidoscope. We’ve covered these boys before and they keep turning up with the goods. Make sure you’ve got the bass turned up high because this has got a great wobbly number going throughout. Also, to show how versatile they are, be sure to check [...]

Both Don Diablo and The Chemical Brothers have been mentioned here in the last few days so here they are together. The Chems new single Swoon has been given a reworking by Dutch maestro Don Diablo and he’s really turned into a dancefloor smash. The Chemical Brothers – Swoon (Don Diablo remix) [alt]
Zeds Dead Return
May 11th, 2010 | by Sim | published in Download
Dubstep boom-makers Zeds Dead have returned with a couple new tracks. You’ll remember the Ontario-based duo from their brilliant remixes of Barletta, Blue Foundation and Radiohead. They’ve just released a remix of Massive Attack’s Paradise Circus too. First up is Here Comes the Boom; a dancehall/dubstep mashup that’s filled with tension and the sort of [...]
The Pains of Being Pure at Heart – Say No To Love
May 8th, 2010 | by Ollie | published in Stream
The critics’ darlings of 2009 usher in the summer with a suitably jangly, fuzzy, indie gem. Not much of a departure from that shoegaze sound that gained them all that hype, the hats are still well and truely tipped towards 1980′s British alt-poppers, but TPOBPAH make music so sweet and catchy it’s hard to really care. The Pains of Being [...]
Remixes: Jakwob, Don Diablo and Shook
May 8th, 2010 | by Sim | published in Download
Here’s a collection of stuff from the inbox over the past couple days. Excuse the quick descriptions but it’s May (read: essay hell). Both Gorillaz and Don Diablo has been mentioned on these pages before so it seems fitting that they should be here together. The Dutchman has stepped up to remix the Gorillaz new [...]
New: Chemical Brothers – Swoon
May 7th, 2010 | by Jo | published in Stream
Another track from The Chemical Brothers’ new album ‘Further’ has surfaced as a youtube video. It’s called ‘Swoon’ and it’s the second one to come out, after Pete Tong debuted ‘Escape Velocity’ last month. Unlike most of their previous albums, there will be no guest vocals on this one. The Chems have decided to go [...]
New: School of Seven Bells – Babelonia
May 5th, 2010 | by Jo | published in Download, Stream
School of Seven Bells have got the ball rolling on their second album ‘Disconnect from Desire’ with releasing a track from the album for free on their label’s website.
The song, called ‘Babelonia’, sounds very similar to the sounds of their first album ‘Alpinisms’. That’s not a bad thing though. It starts of with quite a long instrumental intro and then breaks into the some of the beautiful vocals we’ve come expect from the equally beautiful twin singers.
Rusko + Sub Focus
May 3rd, 2010 | by Sim | published in Download
These English lads must be mates or something because they seem to love remixing each others tunes. Rusko’s Hold On is a massive tune which Sub Focus gives it a slowed down, heavy bass dubstep reworking, as opposed to the down-tempo, funkier original. Rusko then gives his dubstep take to Sub Focus’s Splash which features [...]

French electro kings Yuksek and Brodinski have teamed up to become The Krays. Named after the infamous east London gangsters, their new track, We’re Ready When You Are, features the London’s Ebony Bones on vocals who seems to be going from strength to strength. In return for featuring on The Krays track, they remixed here [...]
