Fatboy Slim vs. Moguai

He’s recently returned from a jam-packed Asian tour, he’s been churning out quality remixes for A-list superstars on what seems like a daily basis, and he is currently putting the finishing touches on his latest artist album for Mau5trap. But why would the unrelenting Moguai stop there?
Not one to rest on his laurels, the German dynamo has decided to step up his game yet another notch, this time re-working one of Fatboy Slim’s all-time big beat classics, “Ya Mama”! Staying true to Norman Cook’s original iconic vocal samples throughout, Moguai puts his own vigorous spin on proceedings, transforming Slim’s masterpiece into a frenetic, five minute bass-infused monster, to all but guarantee the masses will be “shaking what their mama gave them” till the wee hours. It’s out NOW, exclusively at Beatport!

Free Download: Strange Talk – “Climbing Walls” (Van She Tech Remix)

Coming off like the perfect hybrid of Friendly Fires and Phoenix with a bit of that Down Under electro touch thrown in for good measure, Strange Talk are one of the most polished and exciting new acts to emerge. Fully equipped with an arsenal of stadium-ready anthems, “Climbing Walls” is all shimmering synths, cascading bass surges while next single “Eskimo Boy” shines as the bands flagship anthem, churning synths and heavy basslines slowly building up to the kind of dancefloor-swallowing breakdown Neon Gold dreams are made of. Elsewhere, “Is It Real” and “We Can Pretend” beg to be blasted with the top down on the open roads of summer as producer Eliot James (Two Door Cinema Club, Bloc Party), earns his 2011 Music Producers’ Guild Breakthrough Producer of the Year award with some of his finest work yet.

Next is a trip to play at New York’s CMJ Music Festival, after Strange Talk have been flexing their musical muscle as a live act, opening for the likes of The Rapture, Neon Indian, Marina and The Diamonds and Art vs Science.

New Music: Glasnost “Corridor”

Last year I encouraged you to check out Glasnost. They did a remix of La Roux‘s “Bulletproof” that was pretty sick. Seemingly, most people have gotten to know the group for their recently released remixes. Yet, aside from producing killer dance floor remixes, Glasnost is also a live, four piece, electro pop band and DJ crew. Now they’ve released their newest original track, “Corridor.”

Their influences include Cut Copy, New Order, MSTRKRFT and Midnight Juggernauts. Glasnost remixes have been exciting blogs and dance floors worldwide. While releasing other “Glastnostized” renditions of tracks like Tiga’s “What you Need” and most recently Metric’s “Hands,” the band’s been busy producing their next collection of original tracks for their forthcoming album, Decade, due to release in late April. (AND right now they are at SXSW!)
