Vacationer prove their remix mettle by taking on Major Lazer 's "Get Free (Ft. Amber of Dirty Projectors)." No stranger to leisure, the Philly four-piece reinterprets the laid back vibes of the original with an island style of their own, trading "Get Free's" reggae stylings for a hazy, electronic beat. "Nu-hula," if you will. We think this one's a better fit for late night parties on the beach. Stream it below. MP3: Major Lazer - "Get Free (Ft. Amber of Dirty Projectors) (Vacationer Remix)"
Before today's release of the super-anticipated Trouble Will Find Me , The National hit last night's Late Show with David Letterman to perform the LP's early standout "Don't Swallow The Cap". Last night's live version featured a ring of string and complimentary horn pieces, as well as Doveman , aka Thomas Bartlett coming in on keys, making for a fairly grand performance. Watch the whole thing below, and grab Trouble Will Find Me today(!) on 4AD . Bonus: The National just announced the [...]
As I tucked a second swimming suit into my bag that was probably too large for the three days I’d be away, I actually said aloud to myself, and I suppose perhaps my cat, “I’m going to a music festival. On the beach. As a VIP. With a press pass.” A little yelp came next, accompanied by an involuntary jig I can only assume looked like a combination of the Bluths doing their respective chicken dances. Such behavior showed up in spurts since [CoS photographer] Josh [Mellin] texted me on a cold March morning and said, “Um, guess what I [...]
(photo: Karl Scullin ) Ooooooweeeeeee. It's time for some new Pikelet everybody. 'Pressure Cooker' is a groovin' jam replete with the characteristically scattered vocals of lead, Evelyn Morris. What this Melbourne based four piece does well, is provide 'alt-pop' that goes completely against the grain. As a band that's a staple on community radio, Pikelet who makes you think about the construction of music than what's presented through perceived national tastemakers. Tagged as 'psych pop' on their Soundcloud, it seems 'Pressure Cooker' does exactly that. From the get [...]
The Hangout organizers presumably intend the word "Hangout" to be read with leisurely fellowship in mind, and certainly that matches the vibe here in Gulf Shores. But one passable alternate reading is "hang out" as in "Letting it all hang out," as in my bare gut protruding across my belt line, as in eating something called the Damn It To Hell Sandwich that will undoubtedly contribute to that gut's expansion, as in then dipping my legs into a swimming pool while sipping beer and watching live music. As in wringing the most possible sensory pleasure from 10-12 hours at the [...]
Dirty Projectors cover Usher... Be it brushing your teeth maniacally in front of a tiny bathroom mirror or bent on knee in prayer to that beloved framed picture of Jason Donovan (Joseph & His Technicolour Dreamcoat"-era Jason obviously, any other era Jason would be just weird), we all have our before-bed rituals. One pre-slumber tradition we all share though - and I think we can speak for all of us here - is to hope that maybe tomorrow will be the day that Brooklyn indie kids Dirty Projectors [...]

Who would have thought Dirty Projectors could get into EDM. Anyways today (May 14th) is the release of "The Socialites" Remixes EP which you can get on iTunes . So get your dancing shoes on to these remixes. I played the Joe Goddard remix on my radio show on April 8th . My favorite remix has to be AlunaGeorge 's version.

A dupla britânica de electro-soul pegou em "The Socialities" , original de Swing Lo Magellan dos Dirty Projectors , e deu-lhe um brutal novo aspecto. A sonoridade ficou enriquecida com os beats dançantes do R&B aliciados ao experimentalismo da electrónica do duo. Com um grande recurso aos sintetizadores e às percussões electrónicas os AlunaGeorge são assim mais uma das bandas que contribuíram para o EP Remix 123 , dos Dirty Projectors, que foi lançado ontem pela Domino Records, e o resultado desse remix pode ser ouvido em baixo. É importante referir também que, o [...]

Things amp up quite quickly as AlunaGeorge twist the pitch of Amber Coffman's vocals and drop some bombastic distorted bass [...]
photo via Pitchfork Daft Punk are shamelessly promoting the release of their upcoming record Random Access Memories in this futuristic, sci-fi teaser. The video, aptly titled "Random Access Memories Unboxed," features robotic entities unwrapping the new album and playing it on their conveniently old-school record player. Take a look, you'll even hear the first few seconds of their song "Give Life Back To Music." [ Pitchfork ] [...]

AlunaGeorge is one of those rare acts that manages to fulfill all your expectations of a big sound without stooping to any formulaic electronic stops and drops. The British tandem has a style that verges on bare, weaving together tension from the most unlikely places - there's a little trap in there, some N.E.R.D-y snaps, [...]

Alors qu'on attend avec impatience la sortie de leur premier album, Body Music , annoncé pour le 15 Juillet prochain, le duo britannique AlunaGeorge nous offre de quoi combler notre soif de nouveauté. Voici donc leur tout nouveau remix pour le titre The Socialites des Dirty Projectors sorti fraichement aujourd'hui sur l'EP du groupe chez Domino Records . Une version envoutante, ensorcelante et plus encore, qui ne nous déçoit absolument pas.
We were beginning to get upset over the lack of AlunaGeorge updates we've had in the two months since the duo released their video for "Attracting Flies," and while this is no new single from Body Music (supposedly due out in July), AlunaGeorge's remix of Dirty Projector's "The Socialites" is enough to keep us satisfied until they decide to share more on their debut.
