Best of 2010: Mixes
Ok. Let’s talk mixes. What we have here are a series of our absolute favorites for the year. Choices we made are based on what we enjoyed listening to. So they not only capture the spirit of tunes for the year, but they are also worn and loved, like an old blanket (too sensitive sounding?). … Read more
Raging Disco Party!
This post is kind of a reunion tour for me. Beautiful original and remix work below. The first track is a gorgeous edit of Indestructible by Robyn.

Sexuality Remixed
Back in April, Sebastien Tellier dropped a remix album of his acclaimed Sexuality album. I’ve been trying to get my hands on a good quality of penguin prison‘s remix of fingers of steel for a while now. Unfortunately it has only been available in Europe up until now. I’m a big fan of the original album and there have been some amazing remixes the likes of Boys Noize, Floating Points, Breakbot, Aeroplane, A-Trak, Moullinex, Danger, etc. etc. They’re all collected here. Universe recently dropped a nice remix of Kilometer, though I still think the Moulinex remix is my favorite. The floating points remix is an epic journey though the grey undefinable area of UK Funky/Garage. Floating Points has some big songs this year. It sounds like Tellier will be dropping a new album later on this year. I’m interested to see where he takes it, and how its received. Sexuality was a huge hit in his home country of France and produced by Guy-Manuel de Homem-Christo (half of Daft Punk). There’s something about the pop sensibilty of Divine that still makes me smile.

New mash album put together by the one and only A-Trak. This needed to be done, and I’ll even go out and say I like it better than his first installment of Dirty South Dance. The original dance tunes are killer on their own and the mashes are perfect (and tasteful). To top it off, … Read more
