Pretty sweet if you ask us. And we’re glad to see that robot chick from the old A Tribe Called Quest albums getting work again. ;)

Tronik Youth, released his ‘We Are’ single last year on Back Yard Recordings. addition to a wildin’ remix by Italian techno-wreckers Franz & Shape (who Tronik Youth has also remixed, in addition to being remixed).

Tronik Youth has also done some nice remixes, including this new one for Nottingham Indie sensation Late of the Pier (who we haven’t mentioned in way too long), an official b-side remix of Gossip’s break out single ‘Standing in the Way of Control’, which we think still has a lot of shelf life left, and this interesting bootleg remix of Post Punk icons Joy Division (a nice follow up to last week’s Sisters of Mercy remix post here. Gothtronix for ‘08, y’all).

UK is one big rave: The Neon Plastix

The phrase, “the next big thing” gets thrown around a lot, and I might do more than my fair share of throwing. But wait! Really! The Neon Plastix just might be the next big thing in UK (Doncaster) indie/dance music. Their new songs keep pace right along with the Klaxons and they dish out that day-glo-y new rave sound. But, at moments they remind me more of L.A. dance-rockers Moving Units. No matter how I try to pigeon-hole it, I love it.

I can’t stop listening. Enjoy the new ones:

Note the MP3s above are transcodes from 128kbps .M4A files using switch (software). TNP gave us .M4A files but our WordPress (how we be bloggin’) audio player doesn’t support it and neither do I.

Here’s a new remix The Neon Plastix did (their first one) for Late of the Pier:

And lastly, for good measure, here’s the b-side, “On Fire” from last year’s The Neon Plastix single titled, “Alive”, just in case you missed it the first time around on the Green Pea-ness blog:
