A producer hailing from Melbourne and going by the name ' Salad ' has done a remix of Jubilants " Antics " ( missed it? click here ). He gives the track a tropical synth-funk sound and there is a really nice change of pace at around the 4 minute mark. It falls into that whole 'nu-disco' sound without being predictable. Refreshing! Jubilants - Antics (Salad Remix) [ Download ] [...]
Cosmonaut Grechko adds his unique musical touch to Kido Yoji 's " Call A Romance ", it was originally planned to be put on a vinyl release that has since be canned, which is a shame as it's the type of music that would go well on a vinyl.

Italian producer Mouth ( who did the very good Schloggers EP ) put out another EP called ' Kalamazoo ' at the end of the year and it's gone under the radar a little. Which is a shame, because underneath the stylistic madness he makes very nice songs. This release is part house, part pop music and even has some small hints of bossa nova in places. It's really quite unique stuff that is deserving of a bit more attention.... Mouth - Kalamazoo [...]

Rex The Triangle is called Rex ( duh! ) he is from Chicago, Illinois. The same city that has given us Hey Champ, Only Children and Gemini Club . Not much more info on him to be honest other than he is a musician, a sound engineer, and uh... a Triangle. He sent us a remix of Charlotte Gainsbourg's " Paradisco " and it's too good not get REALLY EXCITED about. Imagine that DFA Disco sound fused with the Earthbound soundtrack with some heavy kicks and spinback thrown in for good measure. Tons of fun. [...]
So, there have been a fair few remixes of The Rapture's "How Deep Is Your Love?" because of that remix comp. The winner was also, most deserving I might add . However, if you aren't bored of them yet, Argentina's very own Disco Machine, Toomy Disco has made his own remix too and it's rather good. The Rapture - How Deep Is Your Love? (Toomy Disco Remix) [ M ] [...]

Estate have given Arthur Russell's " That's Us/Wild Combination " the remix treatment. A really rather good remix treatment at that, it's on that 802s nostalgia tip but never treads into cheese and the use of the originals guitar is subtle but clever. Catchy synth goodness awaits.... Arthur Russell - That's Us/Wild Combination (Estate Remix) [ Download ] And be sure to check out Estate's originals on soundcloud .... like this one for example... [...]
Chicago based producer Sam Padrul returns with another charming slice of D.I.Y Disco-Pop. ' Let's Make History ' is a track that wears it's influences on it's sleeve with a few lyrical homages to some well known songs. If only there was more music as fun as this floating around...

Martin Dubka , the guy who produced the albums of people like Ali Love & Tyson ( he's also one of Aeroplane's favourite bro's ) sent over this very fun and very bouncy edit of Waylon's - " Creme De La Creme " and he didn't have anything to promote or anything. Or, we forgot that he has something to promote... uh.... Waylon - Creme De La Creme (Dubka Edit) [ M ] [...]
Parisian producer Yan Wagner returns with new release " Turmoil ". Which is apparently " French Industrial Goth Rock " ( well the tagging on soundcloud says that ) if it is " French Industrial Goth Rock " I would like to hear more of what the genre has to offer. Although, it's safe to say those who like early New Order and the weirder side of LCD Soundsystem ( y'know , when he uses the deep voice ) will also enjoy this alot. Yan Wagner - Turmoil [ [...]
Chicago band Gemini Club return with new single " By Surprise ", if you've followed Gemini Club for the last few years, some of the melody in this track will be a bit familiar as the track is a slight majestic re-working of their very awesome remix of The Vanish . It's a free download, go spread the word!! Gemini Club - By Surprise [ M ] Pre-order their forthcoming EP, "Here We Sit" over [...]
Parisian duo Logo didn't quite make the deadline for their remix of Django Django's " Default ".... however, this means the guys have made it available as a free download.
