PostGossip - Listen Up [mstrkrft remix].

My holiday weekend was like a god damn zach braff movie. Sick family members, thanksgiving, a 10-year high school reunion... it was emotionally and physically exhausting. But here we are, back in Los Angeles. It rained today, which is nice.

Oh, and here's this fucking awesome remix from the Gossip. I don't know if you guys have been keeping up, but there have been a couple of amazing singles by these kids on KRS in the last few months. This one comes off the brand new 10 inch. There's also a 12" of Standing in the Way of Control that is downright amazing. Seriously. These guys are killing it. Sometimes, a band comes along that just knows show to present itself, and Gossip are one of those bands. They just know that a remix from Playgroup, or Soulwax, is exactly what they want to sound like. And it works. Her soulful voice and the ravey synths and the clattering percussion. It's a recipe that plumps when you cook it.

You can find 'em in digital format from our friends over at emusic, which I highly recommend.

This is guaranteed to make the kids dance.

thanks to you, the band and label for sharing this ... it's nice, it sounds clean and it grooves along nicely. the vocal sounds a bit too clean maybe? and a bit toppy? I will have to wait til I can play it out and hear how it all sounds loud. but yes, the cowbell is very nice and that tidy little guitar lick ... cheers a>

omg I love this site!

People please add to this gathering of goodness. If you feel your artist/dj/band is a stretch just supply rational.

MSTRKRFT, Hot Chip, Klaxons, (French Dj) Justice, Soulwax, Girl Talk, Gorillaz/Danger Mouse/Gnarls Barkley, LCD Soundsystem, Lindstrom, Junior Boys, DFA, Softlightes, Professor Murder, The Rapture, !!!, White Flight, Ratatat, Radio 4, Phoenix, Fujiya Miyagi, Daft Punk, Bloc Party remixed, in-fact-everybody remixed. I have never felt such sustained giddiness. I'm hoping the musical high will someday let me back down to get some work done.


Plus, I feel Ed Banger Records, Modular, and DFA should have a claymation deathmatch. The hipness has been off the hizzle for far to long.

This track is making me awful happy, but FM and web airplay will be bestowed by me (to the limited extent that I can do so) upon the first person to mash it up with Siouxsie's "Happy House". (My mashup skills are lacking, y'see.)
