Hatchmatik from Montreal just did a tour in Asia, dropped by Sweden for a gig in Stockholm at Pom Pom and also finished this remix of that Teki Latex & Cuizinier banger “The Good Guys” (you might remember that crazy good video we posted about a week ago). As usual, Matt cranks it up a notch or should we say ten, giving the track a whole new frantic level of club destroying qualities which means you get handclaps, chopped up vocals, nasty synthstabs and a tough as nails beat.

We posted the clubby Les Gillettes remix of this excellent track back when the single dropped. Now, Le Corps Mince De Francoise gives us a pretty acoustic wintery version of “Ray Ban Glasses”.

First thing we’ve heard from the Flosstradamus boys for some time and it’s their first original track. “Big Bills” is a dancey synthpop jam with vocals from Caroline Polachek (of Chairlift).

Our favorite Swedish techno outfit Boeoes Kaelstigen have garnered alot of attention this year with their previous releases of melodramatic techhouse. They just released a new EP on Koloni Records, it’s called “Toppola” and contains two new tracks. “Transpole” is a 7 minute ride of exactly what we’ve grown to love about Boeoes Kaelstigen. The track starts off with a slow clutter then the rolling rhythm starts and lures you in, transforming the track to a floating yet epic jam complete with synth stabs and a huge break.

Spanish quartet Delorean remixed their favourite new band: The Big Pink and made the track “Too Young To Love” into a warm and soothing electropop jam that feels suited for a day at the beach. They’re about to drop their debut EP on Fluokids related label Fool House, the EP will include 4 tracks and they promise a myriad of remixes.
