Two Track Tuesday: Play Paul and Klaxons

This weeks theme, breathing.

Both these remixes have sampled a little breathing, for some reason it works, and well. First up is a remix i found a while ago, can't tell you much about it, other than its called "La La Land" remixed by Ed Banger All Stars, whatever and whoever that means.

mp3: Play Paul - La La Land (Ed Banger All Stars Remix)



Today's top track on HypeM is a Goldfrapp cover of the Klaxons song "It's Not Over Yet", it's pretty good, and one of the better covers i've heard. And it got me listening to some of the Klaxon's tracks, especially the bangin remix of "Golden Skans" by the Godlike SebastiAn.
If you haven't heard this, put your seatbelt on. (If your chair has one)

Ed Rec iii- Busy P Feat. MC Murs- To Protect and Entertain

As expected with every other highly anticipated new release, some c*** has leaked the new Busy P mixed Ed Rec iii. There are a few tracks floating around in particular a Justice remix of Stress, and a newie from Sebastian named Dog.

But this is my favourite, when dance music producers get together with Hip Hop Powers, successful examples include, most recently the Salmon Dance with MC Fatlip and the Chemical Bros, Krafty Kuts and Kurtis Blow, which is all i can think of at this early stage of the morning.

But now we have MC Murs and Busy P with 'to Protect and Entertain'. I like it. Heaps of people hate it coz it is a little cheese. Maybe because i have max respect going back a long way for murs, especially his stuff with Little Brother's 9th Wonder, and Busy P is french and absolutely awesome. How can you go wrong

Buy it at Amazon.com when it's released

Also pay attention to his sweet Air Max 87s in the top pic

Ed Banger News - Ed Rec Vol. III, SebastiAn, Justice

The new Ed Rec Vol. III will be released on the 26th March, so put that on your calendar. The tracklist as below is exciting, i haven't heard a lot of those tracks, probably because they haven't been released yet. Busy P, Justice, SebastiAn and So Me should be stand outs, but Mehdi and Feadz could also be good.
Ed Banger have graced us with a little 10min or so 'minimix' or 'teaser' mixed by Feadz:

Get it Here (zip) - RECOMMENDED

They are doing some release parties as well:

SebastiAn's latest release is the EP "Motor" coming 28th April.

This is what Ed Banger has to say about some of the songs from the EP:
“Motor”: basic, excessive, devastating, the definition of what the Ed Banger crew likes to call a “turbine”. As alarming as an over-heating reactor: a bomb has been deposited on the dance floor.
“Momy”: Vangelis and Moroder captured in the eye of an electronic cyclone.
“Army”: terminal atomization. No one will come out alive.

A few teaser songs have been leaked, thanks to Asian Dan and One More Disco, the track Momy was leaked just recently.

Sebastian - Motor (Distort Edit)
Sebastian - Momy
Sebastian - Kinder Kut

And finally Justice are touring in France (gayyy), on the dates below.

- April 19 - Bourges / Festival du Printemps
- May 15 - Montpellier / Zénith with Uffie feat. Feadz and Scenario Rock

- May 20 - Dijon / Zénith : support act Uffie feat. Feadz and Scenario Rock
- May 22 - Nantes / Zénith : support act Uffie feat. Feadz and Scenario Rock

Now this is a big call, but, JUSTICE WILL BE PLAYING AT SPLENDOUR IN THE GRASS. I'm making the call, someone has to do it. This is how they'll do it:
They are playing at the Emmabodafestivalen in Sweden on the 1st August, and then they catch a plane to Australia, play on the 3rd August for Splendour and then fly to Tokyo for the Sonic Festival on the 9th August, which has been confirmed.
yep, its so simple.
