How To Dress Well | Cold Nites [Koreless Remix]
[Koreless]
Glasgow-hailing producer, Koreless , recently updated his musical repitoire with a dreamy and emotive rework on the already delicate How To Dress Well single, Cold Nites. The result is lovely; a refreshing lullaby which will remind audiences of the splendour found in a rainy day.

Parachute Youth | Awake Now (What So Not Remix)
Australian production doublet, What So Not (Harley & Emoh), bring forth a potent edit of fellow Aussie’s, Parachute Youth . This will serve well as fuel for your felonious tidings this eve. This song is highly dissimilar from the majority of their productions, but it simply shows the dimension in their repertoire and bridges a cavernous gap between between Australian and Western urban/electronic music culture.

Tekken Tag Tournament Piano Intro | Busy P 1999 Remix
Just under half an hour ago, Busy P shared this remix of the Tekken Tag Tournament Piano Intro calling it “a little remix for the summer”. This track and 5 others will be released as TKN001 sometime in the near future. The idea of electronic music producers and video game companies working together has come with mixed reviews in the past, but if these partnerships create quality tracks like this, who’s really to complain?

Kanye West ft. Big Sean, Pusha T & 2 Chainz | Mercy (RL Grime & Salva Remix)
Just shy of an hour ago, Salva brought forth the product of his fraternization with Wedidit ‘s RL Grime . A just interpretation of piece of popular culture that most wouldn’t deserve to re-work.

Tomas Barfod | Broken Glass (Young L Remix)
The Pack’s Young L is a good friend of Tomas Barfod and has taken it upon himself to craft yet another brilliant remix of the lead single from Salton Sea , Barfod’s most recent release. Purchase the LP from Friends of Friends here .
Young L’s rework is a far cry from Shlohmo ‘s downbeat rework, released earlier this month, but it works just the same.
Short and sweet-

Slugabed | Mountains Come Out of the Sky (Lapalux Remix)
Stuart Howard has already thoroughly demonstrated his knack for crafting refreshing and emotionally driven beat tunes. However, with each release, the Essex-born producer manages to expand on his signature sound, solidifying his position as a dominant presence in this ever-evolving beat scene.
Lapalux ‘s latest jam follows his acclaimed XLR8R Podcast , which provided a window into the “sounds that make him tick.” His rework of Slugabed ‘s “Mountains Come Out of the Sky” is furnished with glimmering synths, elongated vocal samples and those characteristic off-kilter beats.
“Lapalux did something lovely with a track of mine. You can have it for free because you deserve it.”
- Slugabed

Space, Ladies | Medusa (iO Remix)
Within 24 hours of being posted to Soundcloud, Space, Ladies ‘ Medusa EP was snatched up by Senseless Records - pretty quick for a producer that is relatively unknown. The EP features two original tracks as well as four complimentary remixes by iO , Kiev , Sentel , and Sarantis .
iO ‘s rework of “Medusa” sounds like something that could have played out during Kingdom ‘s 4am red-letter set at Shambhala last summer. The London-based producer has been generating some heat recently, what with his recent mix for Mary Anne Hobbs’ XFM radio show , and his remix does not disappoint. iO ‘s interpretation begins with a soft, spacious melody which swiftly leads into the thumping beat kicks and distorted synth lines that lend that dance floor energy to the track throughout.

Cadence Weapon | Conditioning / Grimes Remix
“My dad said I was an afterparty baby. This goes out to all the accidents out there- keep on making mistakes.”
Rollie Pemberton’s roots in the Canadian hip hop scene run deep. His papa was a pioneering hip hop DJ on CJSR-FM and by the age of 20 Pemberton had already dropped out of post-secondary, committing the majority of his waking hours to music. Inspired by dance sounds (specifically Basement Jaxx, Daft Punk, etc.) and the eclectic tunes his father introduced him to around the house, Pemberton adopted the moniker Cadence Weapon and has since released two full-length albums. Oh, and while fiendishly continuing to push the boundaries of rap and electronic music, he was also sworn in as Edmonton’s poet laureate in 2009.
Weapon’s latest piece, “Conditioning,” is the lead single off his forthcoming record, Hope in Dirt City, which will see a release on May 29th. Soon after the tunes unveiling, Montreal-based electronicista Grimes offered her own interpretation on the track- a digital spin of the original, wherein she predictably injects those signature whimsical vocals.

Shlohmo | The Way You Do (Airhead Remix)
[Airhead]
The physical copies of Henry Laufer’s Vacation EP host a raft of remixes by Nicolas Jaar , Salva , Groundislava , and Airhead . The latter name, Airhead, is the brainchild of Rob McAndrews and besides his notable collaboration with James Blake in 2010, he’s released next to nothing. However, throughout the past couple months, when he’s had some spare time from providing his services as the guitarist for James Blake’s live sets, he’s crafted an EP, set to be released on R&S later this year.
His interpretation of Shlohmo ‘s ‘The Way You Do’ offers a taste of what to expect from his forthcoming record. Airhead’s rendering is a meticulous and stunningly diffuse tune that turns on slow, yearning chords and ominous undertones.
