The XX - Night Time (Synkro Remix)

All remixes of The XX have been consistently great. The most recent one to surface by the Manchester producer Synkro has a bit of a house edge and definitely that Northwest UK ambient sound. The original Night Time is a moving piece by itself. Throwing some electronic drums over the track, yet maintaining The XX's reverb guitar and Romy's soft and smooth vocals, Synkro delivers a a solid piece of work. 

The XX - Night Time (Synkro Remix)

Grimes - Oblivion

Instantly loved the girl wonder that is Grimes' new track Oblivion, off the highly anticipated Visions LP (due out January 31, 2012 on ARBUTUS). Just some perfectly played synths on the track with crisp soft vocals, not much more to say. Emphasis on the perfect synths. 

Grimes - Oblivion

M83 - Midnight City (Video)

Just in case you missed M83's video for their latest single Midnight City. This one is a far out mind bender featuring some young telepathic bad-asses. Directed by Fleur & Manu of Division (who also did Cut Copy's latest video for Blink and You'll Miss a Revolution), the video is a tribute to Village of the Damned, Close Encounters of the Third Kind and other Akiras.

Tyson - After You're Gone (The Magician Remix)

Well this pairing is perfect. The Magician lays his nu-disco vibes over Tyson's booming vocals in his remix to After You're Gone. The magic man kills this one with a heavy dose synthetics and some perfectly plaid piano keys. Also, check out Tyson's original After You're Gone and its superb video. Just in case you're keeping score at home, that's another free download for you the loyal listener.

Lana del Rey - Video Games (Jamie Woon Remix)

Jamie Woon puts in some serious work on the strikingly beautiful Lana del Rey's Video Games. Woon gives the song a very dark vibe, keying on some choice lyrics and pushing a dark synthetic vibe hard.

COOLRUNNINGS - The Fool (Video)

The Fool is a nice little new single from COOLRUNNINGS. Its a different sound than we are used to hearing from the indie band, but we commend them for taking on a new sound. More importantly, the post-rock 80s sound works well. We dig it. The video features clips of Andy Warhol's The Exploding Plastic Inevitable. Download The Fool directly from the COOLRUNNINGS bandcamp page.

Selebrities turn up post-rock on Total Slacker's Secret VHS Collection. The Brooklyn based band seems to have firmly entrenched their placed in the post-rock / new wave genre. Pretty great to see a band keying on a sound that we love so much.
