I'm not a big fan of Franz Ferdinand's track 'Ulysses' so when this remix popped up in my inbox I'll admit I wasn't thrilled. Turns out though this is a cheeky cracker! Dmitry Kichenko aka IMISSMYJUNO is, as far as I can tell, an unknown. From what he says, this appears to be the first track he's been proud enough to 'release'. Dmitry quite nicely describes the track as "guitars having noisy sex with synths" and I'll go with that. Its already shot into the top 50 most popular tracks on Hype Machine. See what you think:

This is by far the best remix of MSTRKRFT's "Bounce" that I've heard. The Bloody Beetroots have whacked in a bit of vocal distrotion, beeps and a tad more bass for goiod measure. Lovely. I've been running around going "All I do is party!" all day. Which is annoying but at least I have a good reason.

17 year-old DJ/producer Clockwork dropped a few remixes in my inbox the other week and I thought I'd share a couple of my favourites. Clockwork did a nice job on Cut Copy's Hearts on Fire which popped up on Cassette Culture a while ago when We All Want Something to Shout For did a guest post for me. This Grum track is great and I'll never say no to New Order. There's a certainly a lot of potential here - I look forward to hearing some more adventurous mixes in the future from this guy.

This is probably the last track I'm going to post from my Daft Monkey mix. Its a nice take on Hot Chip's "Ready For the Floor" from LA Riots. And as a bonus, if you like quite minimal, chilled out electro music (or your simply bored of the Fake Blood version) - here's the Turmstrasse remix of Touch Too Much as well.

Its 9am UK time and I've had very little sleep. Foamo was playing Cardiff last night at Clwb - I'll be sure to post about that later. For now, I'm not going to say much except happy happy music:
