“Play it, and you wont be able to stop bouncing.” This is what DJ Beebs told me about his latest remix, and he was perfectly right. Indeed, it is a clean and simple remix of Fancy Footwork by Chromeo which still turns out to be highly addictive. Beware, kiddos, you won’t be able to stop bouncing…

Here’s the latest release on Dan McKie‘s label Ginger Trax: Through The Air is a classic house track, featuring soft, filtered synths as well as vocals by Daft Punk. I can imagine very well dropping that one at the end of a set, at 4 AM maybe. This is only a 192k promo, if you want the track in its full 320k glory, head over to Beatport and buy it!

NY-based producer Mr Vega just dropped his latest remix, Depeche Mode‘s Enjoy The Silence. As always, he delivers massive synths and heavy basslines. Love the chopped vocals.

No need to introduce the Disco Villains, with one of their tracks having been dropped by Justice on BBC Radio 1 recently and shows with the likes of Crookers, The Rapture and Treasure Fingers. Due to lucky circumstances I’ve had the chance of getting to ask them a few questions, talking about their career, Kanye West and of course electronic dance music:

DD: As far as I know, Louie started playing guitar at an early age, dreaming of a rockstar career. What musical background do you both come from in general?

Louie: My love for music started at a young age when i first listened to Pink Floyd’s “The Wall”. I remember knowing the lyrics of almost all of their songs. Then my cousin started a band and he was my musical mentor for many years to come. He introduced me to bands such as Metallica, R.A.T.M., Smashing Pumpkins, Deftones, etc. He was so good with the guitar. So I started to mess with my dad’s acoustic guitar. I bought an amp and a guitar, played with a few bands, etc. One day my dad came home with a bunch of cds for me. He bought me Dr. Dre’s “2001″, 2pac’s “All Eyes On Me”, and a couple of Beastie Boys cds. I guess he got sick of listening to me jamming all day to “Bulls On Parade”.

Tony: Louie played guitar and i played Guitar Hero hahahahahahaha just kidding, (P.S. i just got school at the hero last week by louie and Assilem not cool)…. i used to play drums at a church when i was a little kid and i also played saxophone in the school band real jazzy shit. But i’ve always been really into music all kinds of music, i got that from my dad he always made me listen to all kinds of music. He installed in me that variety is key in life, he would make me listen to Banda which is a mexican folk music that borrows heavily on german polk music. then he would make me listen to Creedance, the Beatles and the Rolling Stones i used to hate it but now i appreciate the fact that i have such a diverse taste in music. But then i really got into Hip Hop started listening to Dr. Dre and Tupac and from there i was always just really into hip hop and Latin Rock music, but hip hop was always the mainstay i remember crunk music thinking damn this makes me wanna party. What ever happened to Lil Jon? Read more…

Don Diablo puts his remix fingerprints on Mason‘s “You Make Me Wanna Dance”, making it more chunky and extra funky. Trivia: Did you know that Don Diablo was actually the guy who originally discovered & signed Mason‘s “Exceeder” to his ”MOTR” label? After a year of underground support the record got licensed to the rest of the world and evil commercial demons decided to make a really cheesy music video for the song, eh sort of…

I just love copy & paste!
