Modern Dance Music Part 2

wil.grace@gmail.com (Dang!) — Mon, 11 May 2009 21:28:46 +0000

In his own words:
Since the end of the Internet Music Programme (RIP IMP) this mix came into being. Like Part 1 of this series it's a healthy slice of the best dance music of the day. Starting in nu-disco and gradually getting heavier and more technoier, until the Black Hammer track which is the sonic equivalent of bare knuckle boxing.

Aeroplane, Sirisumo, Prins Thomas, Digitalism, Metro Area and the Junior Boys. Plus the new one from Simian Mobile Disco which is at least as big as Hustler, and is probably destined to be the Heater of summer 2009.

Double Shadow - Junior Boys
Caught Up (Ian Pooley Mix) - Metro Area
This Sweet Love (Prins Thomas Edit) - James Yuill

Read My Mind (Special Dub) - Metro Area
What You Want (Sirisumo Remix) - Housemeister
Kilometer (Aeroplane Italo 84 Remix) - Sebastian Tellier
So Scandaous (Sirisumo Remix) - Puppetmastaz
10,000 Horse Can't Be Wrong - Simian Mobile Disco
Hardcore Girls (JC Remix) - The Count & Sinden
My Red Hot Car - Squarepusher
Live Fast Die Old (Amazing Clay Remix) - Munk
Black Hammer - Millie And Andrea
