So I Can Say What's On My Mind
Thanks to the marvellous Modular records for sending me some really great stuff last week. I've been particularly enjoying the forthcoming single by The Presets.
The track's called 'I Go Hard I Go Home'... and much as I love the original (and I do, lots. Especially the Led Zep riffs that infuse it), you can and should hear it on their myspace page, so there's not much point in posting it up here.
This remix is very different, but strangely the original has the vocals chopped up beyond recognition, whereas they are reformed into comprehensible shape in this remix. Which is a different way round to how these things usually work. Sounds more like the original is a remix of this.
So what can you expect? Shouted vocals a la Rapture; a noisy squelchy bass line; and a groove that you'll find it pretty fucken hard not to dance to. You'll like this one....
THE PRESETS - I GO HARD I GO HOME (ASCII DISKO MIX)
The single also has a mix by The Juan MacLean, so it's well worth your money & attention.
The Presets are playing a great looking gig next Wednesday. I'll be going along for sure.
On a rather different tack are new signings 'The Soft Lightes'. This debut single 'Girlkillsbear' sounds to me awfully like 'Her Space Holiday', but there are also a lot of hints of The Flaming Lips in their sound.
Again you can hear the single on their myspace page, so i'll post up the remix by Lo-Fi-Fnk. Which I think I prefer anyway. It's quite similar to the original, but with lots of added Lo-Fi-Fnk noises. Handclaps, cheap synths and chanting. It's blissful electronic pop that will slap a big smile across your face.
