Jim Starck: ‘Gunman’ EP / Thieves Like Us ‘Drugs in My Body (Jim Starck Remix)

jimstarck Jim Starck: Gunman EP / Thieves Like Us Drugs in My Body (Jim Starck Remix)

Jim Starck is the Phillippe Starck of fucking dance music. What’s that mean? It means Jim Starck is a craftsman of sleek and fashionable EDM tunes. (But it doesn’t mean I think they’re related).

Jim Starck and his Electroluxe Family helping to usher in Quatre Records as a new favorite French techno/electro label. If you’ve been paying attention, we got excited when Quatre brought us, fellow Electrolux Fam., D*L*i*d’s remix of Kris Kross‘ classic, ‘Jump’ (get it here). But we were hooked from the first Fam. cut ‘Rock That Shit’ (which also had a hittin’ Vicarious Bliss remix you can grab right here).

Jim Starck’s ‘Gunman’ EP was released last week, and we caught the blast like a double barrel of buckshot.

And this one is for all the ladies in my neighborhood. Jim Starck bought the present—and the card—but I’m adding my name to it, with love.

Lastly, let’s bring this one back to life. It briefly appeared in our big ol’ Thieves Like Us ‘Drugs in My Body’ remix post (here), but we pulled it down so it might still have a go in the official remix contest by Kitsune. Now Rochelle has won the thing, but that doesn’t make this mix any less of a favorite.

Thieves Like Us – ‘Drugs in My Body’ remixes from Electroluxe Family’s Jim Starck, Sir Graves, Clique Talk & Popes on Dope

Now Kitsune and Thieves Like Us are just wrapping up their ‘Drugs In My Body’ remix contest advertised here (actually, the contest ends today, so hurry up if it’s news to you!). Every bedroom producer and their second-cousin has a remix or a remix-in-progress, and now they’re coming out of the woodwork!

Thieves Like Us hail from Sweden and the US, met in Berlin and now reside in Manhattan. They make sweet indie-pop and sprinkle it with references to stuff like drugs that give it another layer of flavor—one that might make you see double.

We’ve been championing France’s Electroluxe Family this month, since that just perfect Kris Kross remix we put up last week, and now Jim Stark of the Electroluxe Fam. threw this remix at us to whet our appetite for his upcoming ‘Gunman’ EP.

Removed at request of artist and label.

Another super hot club version comes courtesy of L.A.’s own Sir Graves. L.A.’s finest Mike B of Mike B vs. Dickie G hipped me to this and he certifies it gets dance floors moving. Dude would know, trust.

Those remixes are apples and the following are oranges. Where those are for the club, these are for moody brooding on the mellow tip. One remix from Clique Talk (who BiBaBiDi turned us on to) and another from Popes on Dope (a.k.a. the guys behind Certified Banger and Eclectic Hermit)
