It’s been more than a season since we’ve heard something new from Swedish pop trio NONONO, and now we get a totally upgraded and reenergized version of it thanks to fellow Swedish producer, Lissvik. With his reworking, the track transforms from a sweeping pop creation to a dubbed out banger. The track is part of a special 12″ edition of NONONO’s debut release, but you can stream it below now.

Adding to last months upbeat track from Disclosure featuring Eliza Doolittle, “You & Me” gets some new fresh upgrades from Baauer. The track had a fun uplifting EDM feel to it already but now it takes on a different form thanks to some reworking by Baauer. He cuts it up, adding glitchy percussion and synths to effectively kick the energy level up a notch.

Cosmo Sheldrake latest track “The Fly” has many different layers of coolness, a funky rhythm that sounds like it could of been the child theme song from Game of Thrones and the Boondocks mixed together, and lyrics that are taken from a William Blake poem called “The Fly.” The finished product sounds a bit weird but nonetheless refreshingly different.

It’s so hard being a fan, especially today for us die hard Daft Punk fans. Over my eight years of waiting for a new Daft Punk album and my unfortunate letdown that was the OST for Tron it’s been an emotional Journey leading up to the release of Daft Punk’s 4th studio album. The roller coaster started when I first saw the 10 second teaser for what we now know is there hugely successful first single “Get Lucky’s”. It was this perfect snippet that if put on repeat would keep me uber satisfied for a long time. But no that’s never enough, everyday afterwards I was roaming the net for the final version of “Get Lucky”. Which only surfaced after the first weekend of Coachella when they made a surprise appearance playing teaser video snippet, this time one minute long, on screens across the festival. After waitng a week and what was supposedly a real version leaked on the radio we finally got the REAL version. I was tricked a few times into beileving I had the real song but only to be mislead. Continuing on my roller coster ride, being on cloud nine every time I listened to “Get Lucky” my anticipation built to levels I had rarely experienced for an album release. I knew deep down inside that Random Access Memories would be the best album of the year, that it would blow my socks of the minute I heard it. So now we are several days away from the album release and low and behold…..a mysterious leak surfaces, not only a leak but a confirmation from iTunes that this leak was real when they posted the stream themselves officially. I heard about the leak on on social media with notoriously bad reviews. I was starting to get upset about the reviews and figured that these people were being to criticial. I had to give it a listen. At first I started laughing and then laughter turned into confusion. What was I listening too? Some really bad unreleased Jamiroquai album? I kept hiting next waiting for that “Get Lucky” song to give me an eargasm. But it didnt happen, instead I was shocked at what I heard. I started to deny what I listening to, making excuses, saying that this leak had to be fake. Even though a legitimate source was saying it was real. I didn’t even give it a chance I was so upset. Fast forward to the drive home, where my upgraded car stereo whoed me over very fast. After listening to Lose yourself to Dance 3 times in a row and then moving on to “Instant Crush” I started to smile. I got it – Daft Punk was working my eargasm and making me very happy. Yes this album was a huge departuture from what we are used too and some may say that the 60-70′s sampling is play out or boring. But there’s someting about the good tracks on this album that make it an absolute winner. When I first heard this album and went on a rant on Facebook about how bad it was when I hadn’t even given it a chance. I kept hitting next hoping a song would jump out and smack me. What I needed to do was wait for it and let it seep into my mind so that I could understand it’s direction. In the end I’m truly sorry for thinking this album sucked. Nowadays a good album consists of about 4 solid tracks and if you take the time to listen they’re at least 4 good songs on Random Access Memories. So wether this is some sort of fake or not. It’s damn good and I still love you Daft Punk, you can do no wrong.

Makes me proud to be Canadian when I hear these awesome bands hailing from Canada. Some of my favorite bands come from Canada’s biggest cities. Such as but not limited to Arcade Fire from Montreal and The Zolas from Vancouver. Today I got my first dose of Royal Canoe the six piece group from Winnipeg, Manitoba. This song definitely reflects the cities drastic seasonal changes. Check out their re-mastered and re-mixed track “Bathtubs” a gem of jangly keys and anthemic harmonies that are fully supported by psychedelic strings and guitar riffs which releases on their full-length record, Today We’re Believers will be out June 25 on Roll Call Records.

This haunting track from Gilberte Forte featuring Active Child is spot on with it’s cinematic qualities and smooth harp infused beat. It makes one recall dark choices and memories. Gilbere Forte examines late nights, fast, mysterious women, and the treachery of lust on new single “Nolita.” Wisely enlisting the assistance of Active Child for a typically soaring hook, Forte weaves a detailed narrative that elevates these well-worn topics with personal detail, providing the sort of context that breathes life into description. This song is making what should be a fun Saturday into a haunting yet delightful one.

Here’s an awesome RAC remix to ensure that your Sunday goes in the right direction. Taking “Trying To Be Cool,” a fresh hot new one from Phoenix that appears on their latest LP, Bankrupt!, the remix collective infuses their signature funk into the original for a smooth, fun result. Listen to and download the remix of “Trying To Be Cool” below.

Here’s another prime example how Nicolas Jaar is a master of remixes. He turns Grizzly Bear’s “Sleeping Ute” into a spacious atmospheric ballad that is perfect for that rainy day cruise.

The first time I spotted Cashmere Cat’s remix of Miguel’s “Do You…” cover photo I was immediately enticed to press play. A beautiful cat being shown off is so cute. What’s cutter is how this soong transforms a dozen different ways, each keeping you locked in a gaze. But even cutter is how call Khal responded, “That blurb is easy: ‘sex.’” Once you hit the play button, you’ll understand how this five-minute long remix can be reduced to just one word. It’s a slow, torturous game of seduction that you will undoubtedly lose.”

Party Supplies injects some funky bass and electric guitar into Arcade Fire’s “We Used To Wait.” Download this rocking remix below.
