Following our post a few weeks ago about The Good Natured 's cover of a Sufjan Stevens tune, ( find that post here ), we have been fortunate enough to obtain yet another fresh cut. This time we are giving away a remix of their tune, Be My Animal , which was released as a single on November 1st. The new edit comes from the hands of the UK producer, Max Cooper , who's been responsible for many remixes over recent months, from Hot Chip , to Portishead , to Au Revoir [...]
This intensely trippy picture is courtesy of Deadmau5's fac ebook page. This is the setup he used at Coachella this year, oh how I wish I was there instead of stuck in the library... Anyway, I got my first exam today, so unfortunately I don't have time to write a proper post. In the meantime here are a few tunes that I picked up over the weekend while I wasn't writing essays, reading articles I don't care about or drinking too much coffee. Enjoy [...]

Brooklyn trio Au Revoir Simone recently took to the road to promote its latest pop confection, the keyboard-buzzing beauty Still Night, Still Light. Annie Hart reports: To put it lightly, on this tour we fell in love with our opening band, the Antlers. Evidence to prove our love: Exhibit A: Erika and I jumping on the bed during our last [...]
So on the way home from Messy tonight, T-Dubz was bumpin some Au Revoir Simone so it was only natural that when I got home that I'd find a remix of their single 'Knights of Wands' in our mailbox! The remix culprit is a DJ (possibly duo/trio) who goes by the name Straight Up! Deductions - (a) Straight Up! hails from Utah (b) The group (might) consist(s) of two brothers and/or family members (c) Straight Up! also has a female vocalist (presumably not related). [...]

I think over the past year or so, I began to grow a bit disenchanted with remixes (they're a dime a dozen nowadays, and 95% of them aren't good), especially any announcements of remix albums. Sometimes it just doesn't seem resonate with me at all, besides the idea of bleeding an album dry for whatever it's worth. For instance, that remix album of Stars' Set Yourself on Fire , which I had really no interest in listening to because I don't think their music lends itself well to being remixed in the first place. [...]
This indie hit from Au Revior Simone , which was passed along dance and indie blogs alike, and even appeared in live sets by the likes of Jokers of the Scene , has been remixed by Sweden's Pacific . The thing about this remix that's most surprising, is the change of tone. This sad song becomes a playful Californian style surf song. Au Revior Simone - Sad Song (Pacific Remix) Original clip below.

Die drei Synthi-Pop-Prinzessinnen aus New York veröffentlichen ihr betörendes "The Bird Of Music" ein zweites Mal. Eins zu eins, aber geremixed.

what kind of music would you listen to in space? i think i'll spend most of my intergalactic moments with spiritualized (not as if i'm not listening enough to them here on earth). but if i needed a new space lullaby after one spin too many of ladies and gentlemen we're floating in space i might possibly consider ruff and jam 's remix of au revoir simone 's "lark". ok, maybe that description's a little far out (sun sun sun sun...), but this is a track that reaches pretty high for the stars considering the understated [...]
