Kitsune pick PACT remix

Uber cool French indie label Kitsune have selected one of PACT's remixes for their next 'Soleil' album. Languages are not our forte here but we think that means 'Sun' and PACT's remix of Tiny Dragons' 'Canvas' certainly put a bit of sun into our lives.

Hailing from Brighton, this 22 year old producer has taken a great tune fellow sea-siders Tiny Dragons and turned their stomping indie-funk into a Balearic dance floor smash.

The release of Kitsune Soleil is set for the 1st of July and features some great names such as Hot Chip, Two Door Cinema Club and Alan Braxe.


Expect to be hearing much more from both PACT and Tiny Dragons over the coming months.

Mason remix Mago

Mason have remixed fellow dutchman Mike Mago's deep house anthem 'The Show'. With a sprinkle of rave and a dash of jackin' sauce the boys have pit their own stamp on this well loved record.

The package of the original tune and remixes has just been No.1 in the DMC Buzz Chart. 

In the meantime the boys have been working on another remix for a very very famous old Dutch dance-pop duo we can't mention at the moment but its sounding good. "No no no no no no"we cant..

You can check out the Mason remix here:  Mason's Mago Mix

 Mike Mago 'The Show' is available now on Spinnin' Deep.

Mason enter the Grotto

Mason continue on a rich vein of musical form with their latest release 'Grotto' which sees light of day via their own Animal Language imprint this week.

Grotto, which is heavily laden with 90's house influences has garnered the support of tastemakers from the likes of Groove Armada, to Mylo and Etienne De Crecy. It comes with a very tidy package of remixes from up and comers Mike Mago and  Plea$ure.

Our fave is the latter mix which sounds like the twisted soundtrack from a bar scene in Buck Rogers, with a marimba solo of course. 

As if that wasn't enough there's very amusing little video to accompany the release which involves a dog roaming the streets of Amsterdam and ends with a bizarre twist. Well worth checking out.

The Corderoy mix takes the full vocals from the original and turns it into a peak time big room tune. The remix has already been played on national radio in Holland.
