Over on their MySpace page, Joe And Will Ask? are good enough to be giving away this new track, ‘Yellowstone’.
‘Yellowstone’ is a huge analog floorkiller that carries you away with it, full of Joe And Will Ask?’s trademark bit-crushed bleeps.

Joe and Will Ask? whipped up a storm with their DJ sets this weekend at the Camden Crawl, go check out one of their EPs:
Apologies for the lack of posts this week. the week was busy and it was Camden Crawl this weekend, I’ll try and make up for it today.
So let’s kick start this Sunday morning with something to really shake out the cobwebs and tell the hangover to “fuck off”.
John and Heidi of Trash Yourself sent these new tracks over in the week, shame on us for waiting until now to post them!
Just what you need to get you going, Trash Yourself are noisy, energetic and raucous. Real ‘peddle to the metal’ Electro.
Here we have two reMixes of TF’s ‘Forget It’ by La Dolce Vita & Jason Sundstrom and a reMix of ‘Come Alone’ by Glasnost. Trash Fashion’s reMix features on Glasnost’s new EP, ‘Great Divide’.
Good Morning!

Trash Fashion are about to embark on a tour of The US, including dates with Shiny Toy Guns, dates on their MySpace.
French/Finnish popsters The Dø are the subjects of the latest reMix from Wildlife!
The Swiss producer serves up a chaotic analog noise fest whilst keeping it bouncy and summery with wobbly bass and rapid fire snares over, what is essentially, a pretty chilled track.

‘On My Shoulders’ is taken from The Dø’s album ‘A Mouthful’
Apparently Røyksopp haven’t performed on TV for seven years! Well, what better way to make a comeback is to perform “The Girl And The Robot” from their latest album ‘Junior’ on Swedish TV and actually bring Robyn along to do the vocals!
“The Girl And The Robot” is still one of my favourite tracks of the moment, it’s an almost perfect slice of ElectroPop. Do I smell a second single?
‘Junior’ is out now on Wall Of Sound.
The week in Bangers: While electronic rumors isn’t strictly an Electro-House blog, we do cover a lot of Electro-House that crosses over in to our realm. So many good club tunes and reMixes surface each week we can’t (and wouldn’t) cover them all, so this is a round up of some of the best from the week that we didn’t have time to dedicate individual posts to…
Wassup peeps? This week in Bangers kicks off with Joris Voorn’s Electro Acid ‘Addict’ before crashing straight into the vocoder Disco of the Tronik Youth reMix of Drlkt Freddie Freddie’s ‘Airtight’. The Nu-Disco continues with Fenech-Soiler reMixed by Combo and the Amazing Mad Decent mix of ‘Quicksand’ by ElectroPop superstar La Roux. The Twelves keep it funky with their take on Metric whilst Neon Indian provide some quirky dancefloor Noise-Pop. Mark Lam reworks Streetlife DJs hit of last year ‘We ♥ The Disco Sound’ and bring it back banging and we leave you with our favourite anthropomorphised tigers, Tigersapian, and a new reMix by Clockwork.

While you’re waiting for news of this release why not check out some more of JBAG’s mixes and reMixes:
No shit, Sherlock!: A chance to enthuse about music from the last few years that pre-dates electronic rumors, this stuff has probably already been blogged to death years ago, but we need a chance to get how much we love it off our chests. We already love it, you already know and love it…and are probably bored of it, but we’re going to blog about it anyway…
Zombi’s Steve Moore’s side project Lovelock received a bit of blog attention late last year, particularly for his track ‘Burning Feeling’. The hype was well deserved.
Lovelock’s epic, sonically sprawling, retro SynthPop is serious 80’s teen movie soundtrack stuff. Just like we like it!
The production on these tracks is, at times, staggeringly good. The layering of either Steve’s smooth vocals, or the guest vocalists, with the driving electronics that sometimes verges on early industrial, with ‘Burning Feeling’ and sometimes glides across the dancefloor, as with Maybe ‘Tonight’, is so slick it’s a joy to listen to.
Check out this lot, pure 80’s goodness!

Lovelock’s only release so far has been on Eskimo Recordings ‘Cosmic Balearic Beats Vol. 01’ CD, expect more soon though!
Sandi Sirocco is the name of a band, not a person, and it’s a name you should remember because it one you will be hearing lots about in the coming year, these three guys and one girl based in London going to blow up, seriously!
They are one of those bands that just has you gobsmacked to learn they are unsigned. You can just tell there will be much Sandi Sirocco hype in the coming months and they will soon be fighting labels off.
The melting pot of a half-Spaniard, a Russian-Ukrainian, a Georgian and a Scot create a sound quite unlike and other Electro act out there
Their high energy Synth Disco combines analog ElectroPop of the very early futurists with the musical theatricality of early Soft Cell.
I’m gonna’ make you put in the effort and head over to their MySpace to check the music. So while you’re there, play nice and show Sandi Sirocco some love!
The Faint easily rank up there as one of my favourite bands ever so any hint of new material is exiting for me, even a new reMix.
Here, Las Vegas based duo, Afghan Raiders take an already aggressive song and create a noisy, angry, nightmare of sound that somehow manages to retain it’s groove.
It’s powerful stuff:

Some of Afghan Raiders’ original tracks can be heard on their MySpace, and buying The Faint’s back catalogue should be on your agenda (if you already haven’t got them1)
