Toronto production duo Natural Animal have just linked us with their remix of 'White Doves' by Young Empires, released worldwide via Sony today. They're offering up a free download of the full extended DJ mix through their Soundcloud page for a limited time.

They've added some really strong synth hooks and a singalong style breakdown which makes an already great song much more DJ friendly and suited to the dance floor. Natural Animal, Young Empires, Coleco and Fritz [...]

Fallulah aparece-nos no meio da neve sueca, de saia travada e casaco rock n' roll, para nos lembrar que esta música é gira que se farta. É mesmo isso, é [...]
