Lexi-Funk

Here's more music I've been sitting on fo' a month.

When I was in school, I was in a lot of organisations. I did music, and sports and well yeah a heaps bunch more things you probably don't care about. The one thing that was awesome was being the tallest person in the student body. Bang!

I bet when BitFunk was at school he was the biggest bad ass in the student body. There's no way you get a funk swagger like he has from reading between the lines. Have a listen to his remix of LexiconDon below and tell me I'm wrong.

Lexi on the other hand would have been the kids behind the art room dropping tabs of acid and vomiting up rainbows. The guys have made a proper impact with their singles to-date, and in between the time of them sending me this promo, and me posting it, their album has come out on iTunes and bang! It's really really good. Search for it and enjoy it.

As the weather finally begins to warm up a bit in Australia, I'm looking forward to two things. Being able to sleep naked again, and enjoying a lo-fi summer. Whammy.

Modern Eyes

Man do I feel behind the 8-ball. In listening to the recent remixes by Beni and Bit Funk of the latest single from new rock/electro rockers Jump Jump Dance Dance, it's apparent that the release of their album is going to be one of those moments that a lot of people are talking about.

Jump Jump Dance Dance (JJDD) is comprised of Chris Carter and Simon Lewicki, two Aussies currently residing in Los Angeles and although only new as a pairing, between them they have already amassed a wealth of experience – Carter as an in-demand DJ and vocalist and Simon as the mastermind behind the celebrated US Billboard #1 Club act Chili Hi Fly plus multi-ARIA nominated Groove Terminator and Tonite Only. I really really like their music, and you will as well. As discussed in their press release, the pair isn't happy with merely an album, but are already geared up for a slew of remixes as well as a live show set to combine equal and perfectly balanced amounts of rock and live synth work amongst other things. I'm hoping that perhaps they'll make it to field day. That would be dope.

While I can't offer you the 320 of Modern Eyes, their latest single (it's available for buying now so look for it!), peep the video, and below are the equally amazing remixes by none other than Beni and BitFunk. BitFunk, much like U-Tern is a Canadian disco hero. The fact he now lives in Chi City shouldn't put you off. There's clearly some good things going down North of the Border, and it's my intention to bring that to you soon.
