bangers & cash + lcd + soulwax [new music]


A few dance party jams for your weekend:

James Murphy is a busy boy. Constantly touring, he's got a live mix LP coming out as part of Fabric London's FABRICLIVE series, and he's also soon releasing the Bunch Of Stuff EP under his LCD Soundsystem moniker. Appropriately, this comp includes a bunch of stuff, including this lovely Soulwax remix of my favorite Sounds Of Silver track. True to form, our boy Soulwax tweaks it just slightly to the benefit of all, throwing in handclaps and synth patches and drawing everything out to make it even more dancefloor-perfect. Enjoy.

On a slightly dirtier tip, Spank Rock's been a busy boy as well. Fresh off his own FABRICLIVE mix (and an excellent one at that, traveling from Kurtis Blow to Yes to Justice), he's delved whole-heartedly into a new project with Benny Blanco: Bangers & Cash. Look at that cover. Yes, kids, it's like 2 Live Crew. Is Miami bass the new Italo-disco? You be the judge.
