Ladyhawke - "Paris Is Burning" & Video Diary
We are now able to announce that the first official single from Ladyhawke will be "Paris Is Burning", a pure pop jam that resonates with charming disco urgency. It's party-starting handclaps, harmonic vox, and pulsating bass all lead to a synthtastic bodily rush that'll have you moving like a boneless chicken. It's due to be at media (that's marketing lingo for radio and idiot boxes) at the end of the month. It will have its official release in late august, accompanied with a remixes by Cut Copy, Chicken Lips, Peaches, Alex Gopher and more. Her debut album will drop in September, more details to follow in the coming weeks.
Also, Pip has started doing regular video diaries which is being debuted by inthemix, on her MySpace and on our YouTube, the first of which is up now.

#13: Gentlemen Drivers
Regulars at our Modular parties in France, Gentlemen Drivers kindly stitched up all a bunch of tres bien tracks for the latest Modcast. Whilst their sound has been described by some genre-casting aficionados as a midpoint between 80s and 90s club music, Gentlemen Drivers have remixed the ass off tracks like Homecoming by The Teenagers and DVNO by Justice. Word is that they got some of their own productions in the works too.
