The Tremendous Records boss and Canadian native DJ Grandtheft sent this to me a while ago and I been sitting on it since then. So when I heard news on that his digital EP would soon get a release I thought of it again and decided it was to good not to share. It got that typical Grandtheft sound.
Our French buddy, the electro demon known as The Toxic Avenger, is about to release two new records on September 29th. A new 12″ entitled “Toxic Is Dead” (out on Iheartcomix and it comes backed with remixes from Drop The Lime, Franki Chan and South Central) and also a Scion CD sampler compilation of that includes 5 new original tracks and of course a myriade of heavy remixes from the likes of Switch, The Juan Maclean, Acid Girls, Jakwob, Designer Drugs, Harvard Bass, Ocelot, Ladytron and Burns. He is also heading out on a Scion release tour in October to support the CD sampler, stops will be NYC, Austin, Cleveland and Philly.
We’ve got the storming title track “Toxic Is Dead” + an absolutely stunning tribalistic remix from the oh so talented L.A duo Acid Girls of the track “любовь навсегда”.

Tracklist for the mix after the jump.
“No You Girls” is the latest single from Franz Ferdinand and it shows us that someone at their label got some great taste in music since remixes were commissioned from NYC funky disco outfit The Juan Maclean and Danish techno god Trentemöller.
The Juan Maclean gives us a strutty disco remix with lots of quirky sounds, all while Trentemöller keeps it dark, stripped down and teasing us with a mighty buildup.

Canadian dance punk outfit Duchess Says describes themselves as being similar to The Gossip, Chromatics, Glass Candy, Six Finger Satellite, Les Georges Leningrad and Motormark. They’ve got their new single “Black Flag” coming out on May 25th and The Juan Maclean provides us with an intensely funked up DFA disco/new wave smelling remix that has us grooving here at the office.
“One Day” is the next single off the exciting sophomore album “The Future Will Come” from NYC disco outfit The Juan MacLean which is being released on DFA Records April 14th. The “One Day” remix EP will drop this week with remixes coming from Marc Romboy, The Emperor Machine and Surkin, along with a digital only remix by fellow Grinder Lazaro Casanova. This is a bonus remix done up by house producer James Curd.
