Random Remixes

Firstly it is (now everyone's favourite) Dubstep producer Burial giving his trademark refix to Bloc Party. This is taken from their 12" Flux
It is textbook Burial with rain samples, 2 step beats, haunting atmospherics, a beguiling melodic hook and snatched vocal samples. This could have easily sat on his album Untrue.
Bloc Party - Where is Home (Burial Remix) // Wichita
Buy the 12" at Juno

This is another classic Audion remix. It reminds me somewhat of his Hot Chip remake with echoey vocal moans and a simple analogue riff. This though is taken up to the next level halfway through the track with a huge 'French Kiss' style slow-mo breakdown and soaring synths that will have you going loopy on the dancefloor. Massive.

Rib Tickling

This chest crunching new record by Dubfire (aka Ali Shirazinia from Deep Dish) was inspired by a visit to Ibiza Techno mecca and home of all thing dark and minimal, DC10. At over 12 minutes this is a track which builds into a dark trippy soundscape with the ever pervading baseline that on a big system will cause chest cavities to vibrate to the point where you feel your internal organs will fall out.
It is topped off by a rush of white noise after 9 and a half minutes that brings the track to an epic climax that will have people screaming in ecstasy. This a monster.
