The dark deities Vee and Dez collectively known as Crossover have resurfaced from the depths with a Live album out on Black Montanas. Crossover’s has previously been on DJ Hell’s infamous label International Deejay Gigolos and have worked with the likes of Carlo Pennisi of Goblin, whom JUSTICE sampled on their ‘Phantom‘ track.

A quick search for Crossover on Hype Machine shows that not enough people are hip to the cult following of Crossover. Here’s various goods from past Crossover releases:

MP3: Crossover - I Know Your Face

MP3: Crossover - Phostographt (Steve Lawler’s Lights Out Edit)

MP3: Crossover - Wylde Chyld

In the coming months you can expect some internet only Crossover releases, mysterious sightings, and limited edition paraphernalia, all leading up to the release of their 3rd full-length album which I’ve been dying for since their 2005 ‘Cryptic And Dire Sallow Faced Hoods Blast Off Into Oblivion’. You can pick up the acclaimed C&DSFHBOIO from Amazon if you have not yet experienced it. You can get a digital copy of the Live From Berlin album for $2.85 from Black Montana’s MP3 Shop.

Stay tuned to Crossover’s MySpace page for more updates straight from the source.

Everyone’s favorite overzealous hip hop producer-turned rapper, Kanye West recently released the auto-tune ladden single “Love Lockdown” which he performed on the 2008 VMA’s and will appear on his 4th full length release ‘808’s & Heartbreak‘. The single recived mixed reviews from fans/critics. Tom Wrecks, a.k.a. T-wrecks from Canada’s world renowned Stylusts crew takes the track for a different danced up spin.

MP3:  Kanye West - Love Lockdown (Tom Wrecks Remix)

We were jocking T-Wrecks’ Bmore remix of Llyod’s ‘Get It Shawty’ last May and it still gets much play from us.

Holler at Tom Wrecks’ MySpace for more mixes and remixes for download. If you live up in Toronto, peep his calendar and see how he gets down. Kanye has a myspace too, if you wasn’t knowing.

London based producer/DJ Sinden, who is known for his genre-spanning mixes and dancefloor packing anthems, does it again with this brand new remix of electro darlings Crystal Castles‘ remix of noise-band HEALTH’s ‘Crimewave’. Ethan and Alice already danced up the original track but Sinden takes it to the next level perhaps spawning a new club anthem for the fall.

MP3:  Crystal Castles vs. Health - Crimewave (Sinden Remix)

Be sure to check out Sinden’s remix of Björk’s Innocence in our previous post. If you live and play in the Bay Area, Sinden will be at Vessel SF on September 24th. Crystal Castles touch down Oct 29th and in November HEALTH graces us with their noisy presence. Mark them google calendars.

Buy Crystal Castles’ self-titled CD from insound. HEALTH’s self titled album can be procured from Lovepump Unilimted and check out Sinden productions in the iTunes store.

Australian electro disco kings Midnight Juggernauts have landed in the city of angels and are prepping for the SCION House Party at The Vanguard tonight. It’s an amazing line up with Holy Ghost, HEARTSREVOLUTION (Franki Chan just joined on as their drummer) and Pharrell (Floukids) supporting.

I’m sure all the cool kids have secured their tix and mom’s minivan for the evening. If you aren’t one of those kids you can still try to score some free tickets by RSVPing here.

Partake in a few Midnight jugs originals remixed by the electro elite. First up is their newest single “Into The Galaxy” man-handled by Danger, and secondly super producer Miami Horror does his thing to the MJ classic “Road To Recovery”.

Beat these out while you whilst you get your hair did for the party.

MP3:  Midnight Juggernauts - Into The Galaxy (Danger remix)

MP3:  Midnight Juggernauts - Road To Recovery (Miami Horror remix)

Oh yeah, remember the party is 21 and up, so steal your brohters ID if necessary. Midnight Juggernauts “Into the Galaxy (ep)” is available on itunes and includes more saucy remixes by Grandmaster Flash, Metronomy, Architecture in Helsinki, Chateau Marmont, & Shy Child.

If you prefer the feel of hard cold vinyl in your paws, there’s a limited 12″ of “Into The Galaxy” out on Institubes and even a super limited black on black 7″ out on Isomorph which you can get here.

If you don’t live in the greater Los Angeles area head over to Midnight Juggernauts MySpace page, turn off all the lights, stream some more goods and pretend you’re there.
