Bootleg #2 – Silvia (Robotberget Remix)
There was a point where so many Miike Snow remixes (both official and unofficial) were coming out that some slipped our radar.
Only now as we pay another visit to the current Snow catalogue that we find a few of the ones we missed. Hearing a sick remix so far down the line however, is a pleasure -- even if we’re X months late!
This official Silvia remix is probably our favourite out the bunch. Robotberget captures, twists and amplifies Andrew Wyatt’s vocals perfectly across 8-minutes of electronic bliss.

Bootleg #1 – Everything You Wanted (DJ Mujava Remix)
We don’t post any mp3′s that aren’t expressly permitted by labels, artists , management etc but it’s no secret that there’s a hell of a lot of tunes on YouTube that aren’t technically allowed but hasn’t got shit to do with us!!
This new editorial section will feature some top-notch bootleg YouTube videos that we love and we’ll leave the legal bit to the uploader!
First up is DJ Mujava’s remix of Kele’s next single, Everything You Wanted.

Who Got The Remedy?
Catching a succession of green lights whilst driving or getting the last seat on a packed out train results in big smiles across our faces. In some cases however, a stand-out remix can lead to the biggest smile of all.
Whilst it’s quieter in the Miike Snow camp after the success of their debut album and the insane tour schedule that followed, things just got a bit louder with the latest Bitrok bootleg.
Expect to hear this dropped all over the place in the weeks to come…

Marina & The Remixes
Have to be honest here and say that the original is NOT our cup of tea at all – it’s just too pop for us.
The remixes for your download pleasure below do make the pop princesses single bearable and even enjoyable.
Grum adds a splash of neon lights whilst David’s Lyre’s rendition has a back to basics flavour with some nice acoustic guitars and Active Child gets underground with his spooky anthemic remix.

Tropical Delight
This was the first thing that I heard this morning and it got me straight up, ready for the day (no Tropicana in the fridge unfortunately).
Shooting Horses’ tropical bass remix is being given away for free and anyone with a taste for a few beers tonight during the World Cup Final needs to get this spinning….
Guaranteed to get you in the carnival spirit.

As We Enter Remixed
We haven’t featured old Georgie boy for a while, nor have we heard any decent remixes of the first single from the rap and reggae legends – so when he got in touch with a spanking new remix, we had a big smile on our face.
This one’s moving away from the filthy dubstep that he’s well known for and into something a bit more dancefloor.
