I love getting mail. Well, they don’t call me ‘Postman Patch’ for nothing, hey? Anyway, the latest email I have recently received is from Melbournian electro-rockers La Mode. With influences from Riot in Belgium to Daft Punk, who could go wrong? ‘Salami’ is a sorcher, but what really impresses me is their remixes…

MP3: La Mode - Salami
MP3: Digitalism - Magnets (La Modes Space Pirate Mix)
MP3: Bloc Party - The Prayer (La Modes Sunday School Remix)

MP3: La Mode - Hugh Jass Mixtape

Bloc Party’s new single named Flux has just been released. I suppose you could say the track is nothing like Bloc Party at all, which is a very good thing - its more energetic, has more power and will probably replace that overplayed “Banquet” remix that _still_ gets dropped at clubs/parties… *sigh*, move on dammit!!

NME have released a special remixes EP in their latest mag which has a wide variety of remixes: an ‘electro-esk’ JFK remix to even a more soothing ‘rockier/vocodered/synthed’ GoodBooks remix which is my pick of the bunch.

Buy the 12″ with the original, instrumental and the Burial remix of “Where Is Home” now!
