The Canyons have been getting a lot of love since the release of their Ladyhawke remix (bigstereo, HERE and HERE; electrorash, HERE) , but what raised my robot ear was the accompanying mix — Linus Loves seems to be back in the game after being silent (at least to me) for the past two years. Is this a return of sorts? I hope so. It’s strange cos I had a big boner for this guy in the mid 2-double-0s… but just as quick as he seemed to be everywhere, poof, gone. In a similar sound/vein: I think Mylo sorta did the same although he is still lining up gigs these days.

It’s funny know how the tracks feel so lightweight in comparison to electro-bangerville which emerged only a short time later. Not necessarily lightweight in a bad way, mind you, just lightweight. Juxtaposing Linus Loves with Sebastian, for example, is like comparing a butterfly to a monster truck… both beautiful in their own way but in totally different weight classes.

Have a listen to the recent work on Miss ‘hawke and i’ve laid it down with a couple of my faves from a few years back, VH1 and Rock Chk (with that brilliant Siouxsie Sioux riff…).

Fred Falke (on the right) and Miami Horror. Very fucking nice, isn’t it? We’ve posted Embrace a while ago, now the first notable remix arrived.

To say that it’s cool is not surprising cause Fred Falke and Miami Horror are both Kunk darlings. Funny, this track is like a multinational collaboration between Australia guys, New Zealand+London girl and a French producer.

Get ready for a long song name and PNAU’s next single is gonna come out soon, be sure to pick it up. I can’t really say anything new about the aformentioned gang, read the previous posts. This mp3 btw was an exclusive premiere at Who The Bloody Hell blog, credit goes there.

Remember PNAU from Sydney? Bigstereo says they’ll be huge in 2008. Does Ladyhawke (pictured) ring a bell? The girl from New Zealand moved to Europe named their favourite by The Teenagers. Basically, both of them are predetermined for a great amount of hype during this year. PNAU is one of the next generation of the Cut Copy dinasty and Ladyhawke is like a more original+rocking 80s version of Uffie. So, they did a track together together and it sounds quite cool. It was blogged a couple times and both artists will be a lot more in the future. (Thanks to Hipster Runoff for this one.) Everyone says it’s 80s disco, then it must be 80s disco, I guess. The verses remind me of electroclash without the feeling of being outdated and the chorus amazingly expresses a bit darkish tragical mood. Modular, again.
