I picked this up over at Nerdy-Frames. It’s a reMix of La Roux’s ‘In For The Kill’ by Australian Dan Aux and, blimey, it’s good!
There’s something really heartfelt about this reMix, it seems to be a perfect compliment to Ely’s vocals. It’s all about the wobbly bass and sweet pads.

Tonight I’m off to see Electro stars Sneaky Sound System and as has become customary (when I remember), here’s a video of theirs to mark the occasion.
This is the video for their hit ‘I Love It’, which is pure ElectroPop gold:
Well looking forward to it!

Today sees the release of Electro Soulstress thecocknbullkid’s second single ‘I’m Not Sorry’, the follow up to last year’s Metronomy produced ‘On My Own’, on limited edition 7” and download.
‘I’m Not Sorry’ is a slice of poppy brilliance. Cheekily harsh lyrics with a sickly sweet delivery, like a iron fist in a velvet glove, SynthPop style.
Hackney’s Anita Blay A.K.A. thecocknbullkid is going to be very big, very soon.
Have a taster by way of Stuart Ramsay’s pumping reMix.

A while back, here, we blogged about London Indie-Electro producer Build’s reMix of Cut Copy’s ‘Hearts On Fire’, which we really liked. Build has been busy, he also has two more reMixes to share with the world Both are of Indie-Electro modern classics. ‘Feeling Better’ by French Indie/SynthPop mob The Teenagers and Ladyhawke’s oft-reMixed ‘Back Of The Van’, of which Build’s reMix more than holds it’s own!

A-Track has dropped this reMix of French chilled SynthPop guru Sébastien Tellier’s ‘Kilometer’ over on the Tumblr site for his forthcoming ‘Infinity+1’ album.
A-track has defiantly got his groove on with this bassline heavy Disco rework.

Last week we reported that The Human League’s Phil Oakey would be lending his vocals to a track on Little Boots début album. Well, now you can have yourself a tiny teaser of what that will hold.
♫ Little Boots (Feat. Phil Oakey) – Symmetry (Edit) (Clip) (zShare) (MediaFire)
There’s not much to hear, it cuts off before the chorus, but it is just fantastic to hear Victoria and Phil in the same song. Exiting stuff indeed!
Over on Little Boots’ blog she has posted her thoughts regarding the track listing for the album, which currently stands at:
‘Stuck On Repeat’
‘Meddle’
‘Earthquake’
‘New In Town’
‘Click’
‘Tune Into My Heart’
‘Symetry’ (Feat. Philip Oakey)
‘Not Now’
‘Hearts Collide’
‘Love Kills’ is no great loss but I would like to see ‘Mathematics’ in there.
Ladyhawke’s ‘Paris Is Burning’ is re-released this week, canine cover an’ all, so before you click on over to your favourite .mp3 emporium check this reMix Alex Metric has dropped turning ’Paris’ into a driving Electro growler.

For the last hour or so I have had the track on repeat, lovin’ that synth riff!
You can also grab yourself a chance to win exclusive Ladyhawke tour merchandise here.
‘Paris Is Burning’ is, as they say, in the shops now and comes highly recommended.
‘New In Town’ is possibly my favourite Little Boots song, especially live, so I’m pleased to see some reMixes starting to rear their heads.
Here we have two mixes First up is Fred Falke who turns in a fast Disco House rework, maybe a little to sped up if I’m honest. The second attempt is by Institubes’ Drop The Lime who turns up the bass to 11.

Why is it that so many artists who make electronic music appear to be completely insane? I mean that in a good way, though.
Maybe they just seem to be having more fun than other musicians?
Case in point; the video for Norwegian ElectroPopsters Casiokids, just released, single ‘Fot I Hose’ which is simple, funny and brilliant.
The song is cool too.
The double A Side ‘Verdens Største Land’/’Fot I Hose’ is out on 7″ and download on Moshi Moshi Records.
Well, if I was looking forward to the new Røyksopp album, Junior, before, I am seriously exited about it now I’ve heard ‘The Girl And The Robot’ featuring, Modular signed, Swedish ElectroPop nutcase Robyn.
Possibly the most Pop track have ever done, certainly since ‘Remind Me’, I could really see this being a single. There’s not much to say except that this song is brilliant!
Check out this radio rip (complete with Norwegian DJ!):
♫ Røyksopp (Feat. Robyn) – The Girl And The Robot (Radio Rip) (zShare) (MediaFire)
Gotta’ be in the running for one of the tunes of the year.
Robyn is just one af many names associated with the album. Other contributions are rumoured to be coming from the likes of Lykke Li and The Knife.
‘Junior’ is out on March 23rd on Wall Of Sound.
