Remix me...

Danish legends Laid Back has remixed the Lars and The Hands of Light track Me Me Me. The remix features vocals from John Guldberg and has that classic Laid Back feel to it. Even I, who’s a notorious non-fan of remixes, cannot ignore how utterly cool this one is.

No Blood in Bones and Fontän will be playing at Studenterhuset in Copenhagen Friday evening. The No Blood in Bones set will only consist of 5 songs, but since Fontän sounds pretty cool as well (today is the first time I’ve ever listened to them), I’m seriously considering going!

a The Juan MacLean remix of the Spleen United track Suburbia. Great seeing the band getting some well deserved exposure on a prominent website, though, I cannot honestly say that I like the remix!

Since this has more or less turned into a remix themed post, this remix of the Animal Collective track My Girls is surprisingly listenable. 2 fine remixes in the same post has to be a personal best!

Indie label 24 Hour Service Station will release a 32 track double CD named Ceremony - a New Order tribute - on February 20. The release is dedicated to the late Tony Wilson and contains 31 cover versions of various New Order tracks (by various artists) as well as “a sonically enhanced spoken word dedication to Tony Wilson to introduce the record” by Peter Hook.

Shorties...

Haven’t written one of these posts for a while, so let’s see if I can come up with anything interesting (just don't count on it)!

Via It’s A Trap! Campsite has decided to split up. Dead or not Lines Intact remains a brilliant track.

Everyone seems to be so high on the new Animal Collective album Merriweather Post Pavillion. The jury (a.k.a. me) is definitely out on this one, as I find it incredible tough figuring out what’s so great about it. Nice remix though of one of the album’s better tracks.
+ My Girls (Dave Wrangler Remix)

Should have mentioned in my post the other day that new Danish trio The minor Collective features Entakt guitarist Kristian on keys and bass. And since fellow Entakt band member Jonas recently published a few solo tracks under the alias La Volumes Jinns and seems to be highly involved in another project with Andreas Sorgenfrei of Didium & the Black Bonnie Picture, one cannot help speculation that it will take quite some time, before a third Entakt album will see the light of day. But with two albums released within 21 months (Jan 07 & Oct 08) it's not difficult to comprehend the band members need to start focusing on something completely different.

I need to write a few more of those “emptying the mailbox” posts, as mails are once again piling up.
