Everyone’s May 6th should have been full of Savant and Knife Party. Savant teamed up with Adam K and JELO for a two song EP with some dope electro house. Knife Party released ‘Haunted House’ which was full of, well, more electro house! On the KP release, I do have to say that my favorite is “Power Glove”. Which is yours!? Next, things you need to stay tuned for. Two pictures have been posted, one showing the exportation of a “Thumbs Up” remix by Kill The Noise! The second is a lovely creeper pic from none other than Sir Dillon Francis himself, over the shoulder of Diplo. It says they are collabing, so let’s hope that’s true! That would be a massive track. Aaaaand here’s a third pic of Wolfgang’s epic cat tattoo. Now digest!
Shorne: The amount of anticipation that Daft Punk has built up for their upcoming album release of ‘Random Access Memories’ is starting to get a bit ridiculous. Between their fifteen second commercial spots on Saturday Night Live, and constant release in the Collaborator Series from musicians and producers that the French duo has been blessed to work with; everyone on the internet must know of its impending May 21st release. Now we’ve got an up close and personal interview with Guy-Manuel and Thomas Bangalter as they talk with Pete Tong about what they have been up to since their last world tour! Enjoy these inspirational words.

Dillon Francis – Messages Feat. Simon Lord + Passion Pit – Carried Away (Dillon Francis Remix) : Happy Moombahton
If you know who Dillon Francis is (at least online) then the cover photo for his marvelous track “Messages” Featuring Simon Lord is no surprise. Yes, we love it too. The LA based producer has made a name for himself as the silly/happy twitter master that loves cats and Taco-Bell. Since his remix of Justin Timberlake’s “Suit and Tie” ft. (Jay-Z), he has released two more amazing songs. “Messages” was released by Mad Decent on March 26 during the festival season. The Second was a remix of Passion Pit’s ”Carried Away” released by SONY Music on March 29. Both the tracks were received positively right away and supported by many other great artist.
“Messages” and “Carried Away” have great vocal chopping and funky/glitch/electro elements that remind us of the first Dillon Francis we were introduced to with IDGAFOS. These tracks are hard to stop playing over and over again. With a happy element that all Dillon Francis’s songs carry, many people have a hard time not playing it, Seriously! His production is like none other. He simply makes songs that put a smile on everyone’s faces. “Messages” with Simon Lord is very melodic as is the remix”Carried Away”. Both have synths and bass lines that are fitting to his sound and style. We are so grateful to have new songs to play from one of our favorite artist.
Enjoy!
