Mansion (comprised of Toronto talents DJ Barletta and Violca) take Swedish superstar DJ/Producer Eric Prydz‘ huge ‘Pjanoo’ track and give it a filtered, glitched out makeover ideal for peak-time club action. Shit bumps!
Visit Eric Prydz on Myspace for tour dates and such (he’ll be making big stops in Vegas, SF, and LA this week and then heading over to Europe & Australia until the end of January- check him out if he’s in your area!)
Hall & Oates‘ classic 80’s pop track ‘Out of Touch’ gets remixed by Indiana’s hardworking Action Jackson, giving it more of a ‘B-More’-style backbone. With its familiarity to the (general) public and overall catchiness of the tune itself, this should easily bring people on to the dance floor like bees on honey. On the rizzeal!
“Indianapolis born and raised, ACTION JACKSON has quickly established himself as one of the premier up and coming DJs in the country. Specializing in genre bending mixes that span multiple styles of music, he is equally comfortable spinning hip-hop, Baltimore club, electro, old school classics, dancehall, rock, and everything in between. His productions are diverse as well, having remixed artists such as Hall & Oates, Soulja Boy, and Treasure Fingers. In short, there’s not a crowd or party that he can’t rock. In 2007, he partnered with Flufftronix to form Rad Summer, a booking and promotions company, and has since been responsible for several succesfull events throughout the Midwest as well the first Indiana performances of Flosstradamus, DJ Assault, The Toxic Avenger, Scottie B., etc…”

A few posts back we featured the UK’s Futurecop! remixed by Cryptonites, but this time around we’re featuring a remix Futurecop! did for Florida party rappers Yo Majesty!
There’s not much I can say about Futurecop! other than they know what they’re doing and they do it well. Here’s the catchy-80’s-nostalgia-synth-loving Futurecop! take on Yo Majesty’s cut ‘Club Action’..
Britpop kings Oasis came out with ‘Dig Out Your Soul’, their seventh studio album today. (Pick it up at your local independent record store!)
Hardworking New York-based DJ/producer Chew Fu, who has remixed the likes of The Beastie Boys, Keyshia Cole, and even Frank Sinatra!?! decided to add Oasis to that diverse list of names, giving their track ‘The Turning’ the bumpin’ filtered house treatment…
MP3: Oasis- The Turning (Chew Fu Remix)
Removed at label’s request
For good measure and a change of pace, here’s ‘Wonderwall’, one of my personal favorite (and much older) classic tracks from Oasis…
Here’s a brand new mix full of UNRELEASED material straight from the man himself, legendary DJ/producer/promoter extraordinaire, Larry Tee. (You know, the guy responsible for coining the term ‘Electroclash‘ and helping launch the careers of artists like Fischerspooner and Peaches…)
Sydney, Australia’s ‘Calling In Sick‘ drop two KILLER remixes on us- One for Shitdisco’s ‘72 Virgins’ and the other for Heartache (feat. Cujo)’s track ‘What Does it Mean’…
For all you indie kids, this is pure sweat on the dancefloor, and (here comes a bad pun) you just might end up ‘calling in sick’ after a night of heavy partying to this shit… (Haha!)
Beware! The breakdown/buildup of this ‘72 Virgins’ remix may cause a riot!
Florida-based Exzakt is definitely no newbie to the electro scene. He has remixed the likes of Anthony Rother, Tiefshwarz, and Miss Kittin & The Hacker, as well as having put out releases on top-notch electro labels like Satamile & (Anthony Rother’s) Datapunk imprint.
With over 20 12″s and 3 albums put out (and much more along the way), one must think- ‘Does this guy ever get any sleep?!??’ Well, who could blame him? Exzakt LOVES what he does and does it VERY well. His sound is dark and heavy, just the way I like it- and there hasn’t been one single release I haven’t heard from him that I didn’t like.
Here are a few of his remixes taken from his ‘V.I.P. Remixes’ release… and folks- don’t get it twisted- THIS IS ELECTRO.
When San Franciscan taste-maker Jeffrey Paradise isn’t busy promoting and DJing his legendary Blow Up and (the currently on-hiatus??) Frisco Disco parties, he’s working on his own music, and we here at Missingtoof are glad to be the very first to officially blog about it.
‘I’m Not Alright’ is on that sexxxy nu-disco tip with catchy hooks and bassline to boot, whereas the Le Raided remix transforms it into a heavy thumpy electro bit and fellow blogger and homeboy Johnatron of Disco Workout keeps it deep and mellow with his remix…
PUBLIC recently played alongside L.A.’s Villains and N.Y.’s Stretch Armstrong and will soon be headlining Blow Up in San Francisco on Friday, Oct. 10, and playing alongside legendary electronica act the Crystal Method at the Vanguard in L.A the next day… make it out!!!
