Nacho Lovers - Deeper promo mix
Long time no blog! Well we’ve finished hibernating and like a majestic grizzly bear we have awoken and are very hungry.
Luckily spring has blossomed and brought us the fruit of Nacho Lovers. Here’s a promo mix for their upcoming Fool’s Gold release Deeper.
What’s even better is the Deeper single includes a canadian remix selection featuring CFCF, Azari & III and Mike Mind.
You can find the mix after the jump.

Bishop Morocco: Last Year’s Disco Guitars
Depending on who you are, you might know Bishop Morocco best as James Sayce (ex-Tangiers, Deadly Snakes)’s new band or as Jake Fairley (aka Fairmont, on Border Community and Kompakt)’s new band, or maybe even from when I blogged about them last year. Or you might just know them as one of the brightest new lights in Toronto’s constellation of bands.
However you know them, take a gander at their new video, directed by the lovely Eva Michon. It’s basically pornography for people who grew up on The Smiths. Check it out on Vimeo, and be sure to get your free copy of the song at the Hand Drawn Dracula store.

Model 500 — The Flow (Juan Atkins G-Funk Mix)
From the Favorite Songs Ever department.
The year is 1995. Techno pioneer Juan Atkins takes his own Model 500 moniker to a G-Funk place, and makes the best trip-hop song ever.
OK, so that may be a bit of an exaggeration, but this is one of the smoothest tracks I know.
P.S. Exotic Newark!

As Day Turns To Night
A house classic that came to mind when Gabe launched the missile that is Roller Disco 3. From such strong source material, it’s no wonder that 900 Degrees is such a stormer. Is stormer an ok buzzword these days? Can you believe this track is ten years old now!

Roller Rink Disco #2
Morgan Geist once said that Canadians have “exquisite bad taste” when it comes to music. Well, that seems a little rich coming from a New Jerseyite, but listening to this track by the Montreal disco project “Erotic Drum Band” makes me see where he’s coming from.
Still, I always feel a swell of patriotic pride when I play this out and watch those bubbling synths bring bodies to the floor.
