You can pre-order @JB HIFI but I'm pretty sure its Australia only..

Sounds Like: Hot Chip? A little bit?

Sorry about the lack of updates I've been shrouded in revision recently. Had my first exam of the season today and would you believe it, there was a power-cut and all the lights went out. We had to carry on mind!

I've been a little bit obssessed with these two Junior Boys tracks recently. Nice bit of revision pop.


Junior Boys - In The Morning.


Junior Boys - Bits and Pieces.

Young French DJ/Producer Surkin has cooked up some cracking remixes in his time and I thought a revist was in order.

The artist of the first track I knew nothing about, but didn't initially expect great things from the name Teki Latex who appropriately seems to be some kind of bizarre French rapper. Interesting. And God knows who "Lio" is. Anyway, the track name Les Matins De Paris (my GCSE level French tells me that's The Mornings of Paris?) sounds delightful and Surkin steers it into a glorious choppy mix.


Teki Latex feat. Lio - Les Matins De Paris (Surkin remix).

Track 2 is a bit calmer, VHS or Beta's Burn It All Down. Although a little disturbing on the lyric front you can't help but, er, sing along. Best not.

I don't think I listen to enough Moby. This track is unfortunately called Shot in the Back of the Head, but its actually quite nice to listen to. Light electro magic.
