First lady of Fool’s Gold and Chi-town native Kid Sister gets much love. She stays busy recording and touring with A-Trak, Kanye West, and bigger bro J2K of Flosstradamus.

But she’s not the only one keeping busy—for each bangin’ track there’s a handful of remixers eager to rip it apart and build it back up again. Enter TonyX of 1/2ALIVE crew. He’s been busy—besides throwing Vancouver’s freshest dance party called 1/2ALIVE, the dude chops a good beat. Try his take on ‘Control’ for size (with Eurythmics edit sprinkled in for emphasis).

Mo’ busyness; Sydney clubstars Bag Raiders dropped this little club’d down remix on RCRD LBL last month. Thank you!

Lastly (but not leastly), our L.A. homie Them Jeans of Cinespace fame recently put together this little new wave’d blend of Sis’s ‘Pro Nails’ and The Outrunners ‘Cool Feeling’.

At this point you should be no stranger to L.A.’s Royal Rumble gang—the three-man no-holds-barred tag-team party posse.

I was having dinner with Dan Rumble, of RR fame, the other night when he told me he had the goods—a DJ friendly edit of Soulwax’s ‘Miserable Girl’ that takes the hypest elements of ‘Miserable girl’ and prolongs that feeling of electro-euphoria.


MP3: Soulwax - Miserable Girl (Royal Rumble Edit)

And ’cause this track was melodic and perfect to begin with, a rip from the original, the brilliant, Soulwax ‘Nite Versions’ 12″:

And lastly, something we’ve posted before, but damn if it doesn’t deserve one more go around—the Rumble’s remix of ‘Damn Girl’ by Kid Sister. Shit is dialtone, son! (’Cause it’s off the hook!).


MP3: Kid Sister - Damn Girl (Royal Rumble Hall of Fame Remix)

Royal Rumble throws down the club bangers like suplexes tonight at the grand opening of GET LOW, L.A.’s newest Wednesday weekly at the massive dance club, Crash Mansion L.A.. It happens alongside other friends Paul V. (archive), Luvtek (archive), and Classixx (formerly known as Young Americans).

Can’t make it to GET LOW tonight? Try catching Royal Rumble, Justice, Peaches, Uberzone, Whitey and more at Hard NYE festival in Downtown LA this New Years Eve. Guaranteed good times.

Kid Sister - Damn Girl (Royal Rumble Remixes)

Besides being a no-holds-barred WWF Rowdy Roddy Piper vs Ultimate Warrior vs Hacksaw Jim Dougan slugfest, Royal Rumble is a raucous three-man gang of laptop DJs and producers from Los Angeles who are well posed to win that fashionable gold title belt, so to speak.

Here’s a pair of remixes Royal Rumble did with Kid Sister’s ‘Damn Girl’ that was commissioned by bigger bro(s) Flosstradamus. These really put the Too $hort sample on front street and we ain’t mad at it.

Royal Rumble has been one of the busier acts in the local electro/indie/hipster scene. But their calendar is looking sparse today, perhaps for the bigger and better things, like more production and bigger shows, like Dim Mak Records annual throwdown, Neighborhood Festival on Sept. 29th in Downtown L.A. …The Rumble will be there and they’re bringing so much laptop heat your nuts will go sterile (not really, homie, just a play on words).

Neighborhood Festival features other Missingtoof favorites The Faint, Crystal Castles, Kid Sister, Flosstradamus, Santogold, Spank Rock, Mickey Avalon and a grip of other notable names. Good eh? Tickets on sale, ya’herd?

I’ll leave you with the O.G. of ‘Damn Girl’ because it’s club classic.

Miss Meliss a.k.a. Kid Sister gets her ‘Pro Nails’ track guestspotted by Kanye West himself. We’re un-sure how this track came to be, Kanye says in the intro of the song that A-trak didnt get him to do it, he just loves this shit. & we do too, kanye!


MP3: Kid Sister feat. Kanye West - Pro Nails

At this rate we might not be seeing Kid Sister gracing next years SXSW or our little dive bars & clubs. Big props to Iheartcomix and My!Gay!Husband! for dropping musical science.

Kid Sister’s ‘Control EP’ has been unleashed! The spunky rapper is one of our faves, at the moment. We’re going to purchase our copy right now. You can get yours too from Itunes and Beatport.

For all you vinyl heads, dont trip. The wax will be released mid may on Fools Gold Records.

Enjoy these two Curtis Vodka remixes which didnt make it on to the EP.


MP3: Kid Sister - Ying Yang (Curtis Vodka Ga Ga Remix)

As always, add kid sister on myspace & tell her how much you like her kicks.

Little bit of gold and a pager.

Cool Kids hail from Chicago, Illinoise & bring that old school rap style back to the forefront. Aside from recently making it on to URB magazine’s next top 1000 artist list, they are talking with several labels including Fool’s Gold (home of A-Trak & Kid Sister) but have yet to sign with anyone. So like their song says, I’m sure they got a little bit of gold & a pager.

Chris over at gorilla vs. bear posted their track ‘Mikey Rocks’ earlier this week.
Thanks Chris for keeping us point.

Kid Sister & Flosstradamus graced the cover of URB mag this month & also dropped some new tracks on their myspace profiles earlier this week. Myspace is a fickle mistress, we’ve all experienced time out problems & internal server errors, so I’ve uploaded the tracks here for your convenience.


Kid Sister - Girlie Rock (Download)


Flosstradamus - Act a Fool (Ravestradamus) (Download)

Kid Sister A.K.A. ‘fione as a mug’ is from Chicago Illinois & is J2K of Flosstradamus’ sister. Flosstradamus is J2k & AUTOBOT. For fans of Hollertronix, Sprankrock & Yo Majesty . Peep the scene.

P.S. Sorry I’ve been lax on the posts, I’m finishing up some CD artwork for a very special artist! I’ll post it up when I done & possibly along with some exclusive tracks! ttyl.
