Hi, we are putting out a package of great remixes of songs from 'Made In The Dark' featuring some of the best producers around at the moment.

Dave Taylor (Switch) is obviously killing it at the moment, his recent mix of Mystery Jets and his work for Santogold were great and we have been friends for a while, he did a great mix of 'Over and Over' for us under his solid Groove guise and if anyone has not heard 'This Is sick' by Solid Groove then search it out, it is responsible for the sound of a lot of recent records.

Dave has completed 2 mixes of 'Hold On' and we liked them both so they both feature on the package. Mock and Toof also remixed 'Hold On' and again, have been friends for a while, their label Tiny Sticks is consistently excellent and they have already featured on Death From Abroad as well as previously remixing Over and Over.

I think their mix of 'Hold On' is one of the best mixes we have ever had. Ewan Pearson takes on 'Touch Too Much' and the quality of his mix shows through pretty obviously, I think this mix will be played out by alot of people. If you don't know Ewan he has been DJing and producing for a while now and his Partial Arts moniker is particularly good in my opinion, especially the 'Trauermusik' release on Kompakt a couple of years ago.

Kollektiv Turmstrasse are one of Felix and Al's favourite groups, they have been making excellent, melodic, very funky techno for a while and whilst not being the biggest name on the scene have been consistently excellent and responsible for a lot of big DJs 'secret weapons'.

I hope you like this stuff!

We are also putting the finishing touches to our next release, which is an EP of songs from 'Made In The Dark' featuring new contributions from Robert Wyatt, which we are very excited about.

Meeting and working with him was genuinely lovely, look out for that in the next month or so,

take care,

Joe
