Taken from the Berlin duo Modeselektor's new White Flash 12", the remix of the title track by Danish electronic producer Trentemoller, who has been in the game since '97, is like a more digestible Autechre. He gives it a nice metallic micro-hous ...

Remix of the Week: LA Riots Vs. HEARTSREVOLUTION
On the LA Riots remix of HEARTSREVOLUTION'S "Switchblade," HR singer Lo sounds like a female super-hero android vigilantly fighting off an evil computer virus. In other words, it's a glitch-filled Justice-style track, equal parts grit and gloss. ...
