We’ve decided to take advantage of all the wonderful music out there that we don’t get a chance to write about and send it over to our resident DJ yourboyisgolden, AKA DJ PearBear, to make Golden Mixes out of for your listening and dancing pleasure. On Golden Mix Vol 1 you’ll hear remixes by some old fav’s like RAC and TheFatRat, some new fav’s Digikid84 and Viceroy, and even an original by Edwin van Cleef. Check out the full track list for Vol 1 and be on the lookout for more.
On the second single from their upcoming 2013 debut album, Strange Talk chose to go big. ”Falling In Love” has every element of a massive house track without being remixed. Soaring synths and blasting bass have us very interested in what the whole record will sound like. Since we already have the club mix version maybe the remixes will be indie rock?
Following my epic weekend at Coachella is another great weekend in LA. To kick start your own check out this little playlist. Starting off with Penguin Prison’s remix of the new Miike Snow track that has made its way around the internet and back several times over. Next is UK Draper’s huge edit of Strange Talk’s “Eskimo Boy”. It’s been awhile since we’ve posted mashups but fellow Floridian Fat Superman’s newest club mix has been on constant repeat for me all morning. Next up is Gigamesh’s take on Alexander Holland’s single from last year. Lastly is a cover from another StB fav Robots With Rayguns of Selena Gomez’s radio hit featuring Dana Jean Phoenix on vocals. Enjoy!
Miike Snow – “Paddling Out (Penguin Prison Remix)”
Strange Talk – “Eskimo Boy (Draper Remix)”
Fat Superman – “The Language of Domino Waterfalls”
Alexander Holland – “City Full of Lights (Gigamesh Remix)”
Robots With Rayguns – “Love You Like A Love Song (Feat Dana Jean Phoenix)”
Strange Talk have crept back on my radar with a few live acoustic recordings and now this remix of Foster The People. Easily the most underrated song off Torches, not to mention my favorite, “I Would Do Anything For You” is a calm and delicate dance track that turns into an all out party jam in the hands of these four Australians.

That Australia…so hot right now. Yet another excellent electropop export from the Aussie island, Strange Talk. The group was only established February of last year, but have already made a grand splash in their native country. With a sound likened to trailblazers Phoenix and Cut Copy and peers Friendly Fires and The Collectable Few, Strange Talk is ready to be plugged into any summer mix. The group recently released its four song Strange Talk EP on Neon Gold. Listen to standout tracks “Climbing Walls” and “We Can Pretend” below and order the EP HERE.
