Hot Chip is one of those bands that has so much musical talent that they can release one great LP after another while maintaining what we have come to love and respect as Hot Chip. Their newest album “One Life Stand” dropped this week. I picked it up and gave it a thorough listen. It was just what you would expect of these guys, a good mix of slower ballads and upbeat dance tracks. Here is the track the album is named after, enjoy.

Arnaud Rebotini is a French producer who is also in a band called Black Strobe. He is a master of the synth and uses an all analog setup in his live show. “777″ is my favorite track from his album “Music Components”. The track sort of reminds me of Zombie Nation its real dark and grimy and bound to get your feet moving.

Zomby is a dubstep producer with a raw rave vibe. He is one of those mysterious dudes that doesn’t grant many interviews and let much be known about himself. He actually granted an interview to Fader magazine in their last issue with Animal Collective. Check that out sometime if you get a chance. Here is the single off Zomby’s first full length album “Where Were U in ’92?”.

Here is a Miike Snow remix from Sebastian Ingrosso and Dirty South. They took what was a slightly slower piano track and gave it a more energetic trance-like touch. This track makes me want to go raving.
