Glass Drops was both a critical and commercial hit when it dropped last year. Great featuring slots, a constant killer groove and a fuck load of experimentation cemented it as a modern classic, possibly. Battles are following up the LP with a 4 part 12" series of remixes. Kode9 and the Alchemist are both set to feature, with the Shabazz Palaces cut of 'White Electric' continuing the ball rolling today. [...]
I'm usually not one for off-hand remixes, but Shabazz Palaces altered rendition of Battles ' "White Electric" is pretty on the spot. It's a little side-project for the group, who are releasing four separate remixed 12" parts of last year's album Gloss Drop , with plenty of good artists set to help out. I'll keep an eye on it, but for now listen to "White Electric" below.
The NYC group also reveal more details regarding their remix series.
I'm sure Cordoba's Patio Olmos shopping gallery is a great place. But it seems like this TV commercial could've let us in on that without shamelessly biting Battles' " Ice Cream " or using that creepy mother arm. Make your own call after watching it below. Thanks to Jeff for the tip. Read More...

And as it happens, the band has already posted the twinkly, shifty Shabazz remix. [...]
